In 1999 a young American dumped his bicycle and walked out into the Great Sandy Desert in remote northern Australia. He was an Alaskan firefighter, seemingly with everything to live for. So why did he risk it all to go into the wilderness alone? And how do you search for someone who doesn't want to be found? In 2022, host Erin Parke became obsessed with the saga of Robert Bogucki, which became a media circus and prompted everyone involved to think about life, death and who we are when everything easy is stripped away. It's a story that spans three decades, two continents and a bizarre cast of characters. From booty-wearing bloodhounds, to a larger-than-life, cigar-chomping American named Gunslinger, the search for the missing man became a spectacle in itself. In season 5, Expanse: Nowhere Man, Erin sets out to discover why some people are pushed to lose themselves in the wilderness on a search for meaning. At a time when so many of us feel lost, just how far would you go to feel found?

Host of season 6, Expanse: The Nannup Four, Dominique Bayens has been following the developments of the case of four people who disappeared from the isolated town of Nannup.
What goes into making a season of Expanse? What considerations are made when telling the stories of people's lives? Host of Expanse: The Nannup Four, Dominique Bayens, sits down with fellow podcast host Phil Vine to take you behind the curtain.
It has been months in the making, but police are opening up the files on the missing Nannup Four for Expanse host Dominique Bayens, and there's news on another search.
Since the podcast started rolling out, a lot of people have got in touch with information. Two people have been able to shed light on some previously unknown parts of the story.
A family friend and former policeman continues to search for answers for Jim and Cath McDougall decades after the Nannup four vanished. The family and friends of Chantelle McDougall try to find their own answers, as one last glimmer of hope emerges.
Jim and Cath McDougall are left reeling as the true depth of Simon Kadwill’s deception is revealed. Dominique tracks down people from his past, and hears from someone who has never spoken before who provides a startling insight into how Simon might have ended up on the path he did.
Tony Popic is talking about an end of days, Simon is seeing spirits and Chantelle is forced into a difficult decision as increasingly troubling hints something's not right come to light.
Dominique travels across the country to meet the two people who might be able to help her understand how Chantelle came to be living a reclusive life in a hidden corner of Western Australia, alongside a self-styled spiritual guru 18 years her senior.
