EP 18 - The Storyteller: Narcissist's Playbook

Deskripsi

Old wounds - Australian director Ian Walker had to leave a hotel in the middle of the night and fly home from Europe due to the abuse he suffered while filming Sam Vaknin for the documentary I, Psychopath in the late 2000s. When Isla Traquair reached out to him in 2025 to inform him of her investigation, seeing Sam Vaknin's name on the email brought back awful memories. In this fascinating interview Ian and Isla look back on his experiences and examine what has happened since. The most chilling aspect, Ian received similar claims from women two decades ago that Sam had been abusing them under the guise of therapy.
