Teacher’s pet

With more than a million downloads,

The Teacher’s Pet podcast chronicles the unsolved 1982 disappearance of nurse Lyn Dawson from Sydney’s Northern Beaches. While husband Chris Dawson claims she walked out on him and their two young daughters, the former Cromer High School sports teacher immediately moved his young lover – 16-year-old student Joanne Curtis – into the family home. While police believe Chris to be involved in his wife’s disappearance, charges were never laid due to a lack of evidence. The podcast features interviews with both Chris and Lyn’s family and friends, and has proven an addictive, real-life “whodunnit” for subscribers.
