Someone Knows Something, or SKS, is a CBC radio production. Seasons 1-4 follow documentary filmmaker David Ridgen as he investigates missing persons cold cases. Ridgen interviews witnesses and family members, and employs experts to cast new light on old cases.Season 1 (11 episodes) is about the disappearance of five-year-old Adrien McNaughton in 1972. Ridgen was raised in Ottawa Valley town where the McNaughtons lived, and was only a year younger than Adrien.Season 2 (12 episodes) examines the disappearance of Sheryl Sheppard mere days after her televised engagement in January of 1998.Season 3 (7 episodes) dramatically changes both the topic and location, studying a racially motivated American murder case for which no one was prosecuted. Ridgen is joined by Thomas Moore, the brother of one of the two victims. |

comment |
All First-Person Narrators Write Like Novelists: Ridgen, while speaking in the first person, has clearly scripted narration which concisely but eloquently describes his subjects. This contrasts with the actual conversations and interviews also included in the show. |

SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism |
| | Someone Knows Something (Podcast) / int_3ac583f4 |
comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: In the first season, most of the family hoped for or believed that Adrien might still be alive, and one of the most consistently brought up theories was that he might have been abducted and raised by a loving family. In Season 2, Sheryl’s mother immediately says that she doesn’t believe that Sheryl is alive. (This can be justified by the age difference between the missing). |
