About this episode
Blayne Alexander sits down with Keith Morrison to talk about his episode, The Night of the Audition. In 2014, 25-year-old Shannon Madill disappeared from Calgary, Alberta. The aspiring actress vanished just days after an audition she hoped would lead to her big break. At first, her husband, Josh Burgess, claimed she had left for an acting job, but months later police uncovered the truth: Josh Burgess had killed her. Blayne and Keith discuss the long investigation that led to Burgess’s confession. They also talk about Shannon’s mother, Lisa, and how she found strength through boxing following her daughter’s murder. Plus, they answer viewers’ questions.
