In Wondery podcast Hooked on Freddie, host Becky Milligan recalls the wild sexual-assault allegation that upended an animal-rights activist’s life

“I caught a glimpse of something, sort of like, ‘Hang on a minute, this is a bit strange,’ and I couldn’t get off it,” Milligan says. “His penis was holding tight onto me and he was having fun whizzing through the water.”as well as the town’s attachment to the bottlenose dolphin. After rediscovering bags and bags of cassette tapes, Milligan introduced the idea to Rosie Pye, co-founder and creative director of Blanchard House. Milligan joined Blanchard House as a presenter in 2021.

“It really connected with me immediately,” Pye says. “And I also thought, wouldn’t it be amazing to have a story where part of it is underwater?”Sound designer Volkan Kiziltug ensured all of the dolphin clicks heard throughout the six-part series originated from non-captive dolphins at the Bottlenose Dolphin Research Institute in Spain.

“It’s also how one accusation, which as you say, ‘It’s a bit weird, feels a bit strange and uncomfortable in a way,’ but how that can undermine someone,” Milligan says.
