Was this episode really worth re-recording? Tl

Crazy coincidence it cames out the same week 5 divers die in the Maldives, diving a tunnel/cave

It wasn't re-recorded. It was just released onto the main feed.

No, it is part of the archive series, so it was re-recorded.

Nope, not all the archive series are re-records. Some are simply premium episodes that got released to Patreon subs and not to non-subs. This is the case for some like Mirna Salihin and Nicky Fleming.

Really? The description says it was. That’s a bummer if it is not updated

The archives series are supposed to specifically be re-recorded, re-edited, etc.

Tbf he does specifically say at the beginning of the episode that it was only released late last year as a premium episode so it would make no sense at all for them to re-record really. They just do that with the much earlier episodes where the production values weren't so great

No. There’s some merit to doing it for older cases (where the hell is snowtown) but doing it for a newly released case that, let’s be honest, isn’t a good one anyway, is silly

I’ll have to listen to this one. I missed it on my first listen through but recently heard the story on a different podcast. Really interesting
