Kiss & Kill is a new Channel 7 podcast – Australia’s deadliest narcissists exposed in explosive new podcast: Kiss & Kill.
Episodes to drop weekly on 7NEWS.com.au, 7plus & LiSTNR
A series of murders that shocked the nation and chilling behavioural patterns hiding in plain sight form the heart of a gripping new 7NEWS true crime podcast, set to rewrite how we understand the country’s most dangerous offenders.
Launching this Sunday at 6.00pm, Kiss & Kill is the latest deep‑dive from 7NEWS Investigations Editor Alison Sandy, the award‑winning journalist behind the hit true‑crime series The Lady Vanishes, The Truth About Amy and Shot in the Dark, which have set new benchmarks for investigative storytelling in Australia.
Over 10 episodes, Kiss & Kill lays bare how some of Australia’s most infamous “killer narcissists” including Gerard Baden‑Clay, Louis Mahony, Tyrone Thompson, Anthony Eriksen, Charles Evans and Borce Ristevski followed strikingly predictable pathways to murder long before the term coercive control was widely understood.
As governments across the country grapple with escalating domestic violence homicides, Kiss & Killspeaks to leading criminologists, forensic psychiatrists, legal experts and investigators. It reveals how early warning signs were missed, how patterns of coercive control escalated, and how today’s laws could have radically altered each outcome and why more women than ever are being killed by their partners. The team also examines whether new strategies are working and what more needs to be done.
Alison Sandy said:
“This series exposes what wasn’t understood at the time: that these offenders followed highly predictable behavioural patterns. We reveal the real‑time work happening behind the scenes as some of the country’s most notorious killer narcissists, including Gerard Baden‑Clay and Borce Ristevski, edge closer to potential release next year.”
Kiss & Kill will roll out across Seven’s full suite of broadcast, digital and audio platforms, with new episodes premiering each week on 7NEWS.com.au and 7plus as a vodcast, and on LiSTNR as a podcast. Each week, a special report will air on 7NEWS at 6.00pm, with extended coverage and analysis on 7NEWS.com.au – delivering gripping investigative journalism wherever Australians watch, read or listen.
Seven’s Director of News and Current Affairs Ray Kuka said:
“Kiss & Kill is a rare, in‑depth examination of some of Australia’s most dangerous offenders. Our team have exposed patterns of behaviour that went unrecognised at the time – insights that are now vital as several of these killer narcissists move toward possible release.”
“By combining our investigative resources with a nationwide multimedia rollout, we’re bringing essential stories to audiences everywhere, and contributing meaningfully to a national conversation that cannot wait.”
