The Mushroom Cook

The story of a seemingly ordinary family lunch that turned out to be anything but normal.

Follow the journalists piecing together the puzzle of how three people died after sitting down to share a meal in the small Australian town of Leongatha, Victoria.

With the woman who prepared that meal now accused of murder, The Mushroom Cook explores the story so far – and reports on the court hearings as Erin Patterson faces trial.

This form of attribution is used to measure advertising effectiveness.

Dynamic content insertion: Omny Studio may use limited data that they know about you - the device you’re using, the approximate location you’re in, or other data that can be derived from this, like the current weather forecast for your area - to change parts of the audio. The Mushroom Cook may do this for advertising or for other forms of content, like news stories.
