S2 | E9 — TURN STARBOARD FOR MUTINY

The tide turns. In this episode, Sarah follows the unraveling of IntSAR from the inside out. As members begin to compare notes, stories collide, loyalties shift, and those once closest to Admiral Peter Cowell start to ask the questions they’d long avoided. Through verified WhatsApp messages, testimony, and recorded conversations, The BADmiral pieces together how the so-called “Admiralty” fractured — revealing a pattern of emotional manipulation, financial confusion, and eroding trust. This is the moment the crew begins to steer their own course. Peter Cowell was contacted for comment during the production of this series. At the time of publication, no response has been received. All accounts and opinions in this series are those of the participants, based on their own experiences. Allegations are always attributed to their sources. The story is told in the public interest to examine how trust, belief, and ambition can intertwine. 🔎 Themes: investigative journalism · manipulation · trust · power dynamics · veterans · whistleblowers · human psychology All episodes of The BADmiral are available now — stream them ad-free and with bonus content:🎧 Listen on Apple Podcasts | Join on Patreon Follow @conmunitypodcast on Instagram for the latest updates, behind-the-scenes insight, and ongoing developments.
