We want to bring you news of a very exciting new project from the team here at GoLoud, in collaboration with the team behind the hugely successful series “The Witness” – crime journalist Nicola Tallant and producer Ian Maleney.
It’s a new 8-part true crime series called "The Gambler", it’s released today and we think it might become your next true crime obsession. We think you’ll love it, so we wanted you to hear about it from us first.
The story begins off as Nicola gets a phone call from a prisoner in an Irish prison, who says he has some information she might be interested in. But what came after, as Nicola kept speaking to this man - Pat Sheedy - would prove to be even more interesting. That phone call started a journey into the darkest reaches of addiction, crime and deception – and into the life of a man battling demons, with a lot of ups and downs.
We think you’ll be excited to check it out.
The Gambler is a GoLoud Original and it is out now.

And she's not the only listener who got in touch for this bonus episode - There's also the weekly dilemma, in which one girl feels she is the only thing keeping her friend group together.
