Is Bodkin a real place?
While the coastal town of Bodkin in West Cork is the primary location of most of the action in the show, it is not actually a real place.
Series creator Jez Scharf told Tudum, “It’s a fake town, it’s a fake place. It’s all fake people. The mystery itself, we worked very hard to find something that is in no way adjacent to a real true crime story. The fictionality of it was very deliberate.”

Dubliner Siobhán Cullen (Obituary, The Dry) leads the cast, with Will Forte (The Last Man on Earth) and Robyn Cara (Trying) filling the roles of the other podcasters.
