Where can you listen?

What happens when the life you imagined disappears overnight?

Confronted is an eight-episode narrative podcast that begins with the stillbirth of Matt Earle and Lauren’s daughter, Mackenzie, and follows the 18 months that come after - using real recordings captured in the moment.

Blending past and present, Matt and his best friend Josh revisit past relationships, therapy, travel, and the turning points that shaped that time - including the strange moments where you somehow find yourself laughing when you feel like you shouldn’t.

Told from a male perspective, Confronted explores how people respond when life doesn’t go to plan - and how they find a way forward.
