Bike Boy – The True Crime Podcast

"PERJURY, CONSPIRACY AND PERVERTING THE COURSE OF JUSTICE." In this Series 2 finale, former Victorian Chief Commissioner of Police Kel Glare reviews the Bike Boy evidence brief following our four-year investigation. He says these charges should be laid against former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews, his wife Catherine Andrews, and members of Victoria Police. The evidence brief is now in the hands of the current Victorian Chief Commissioner of Police, Mike Bush.

More allegations from Catherine Andrews' emails as we reveal how a parking fine issued after her car was parked illegally was later torn up with the assistance of now Assistant Commissioner of Police Brett Curran. Should the matter be referred to IBAC? Should the Assistant Commissioner stand aside while it's investigated? Plus, an update on Ryan and your feedback.

We continue examining the emails Catherine Andrews wrote about the real damage to the SUV. Her own words show the SUV hit the child head-on. Catherine and Daniel Andrews crashed into the child, not the other way around.

Catherine Andrews' emails about the Bike Boy crash are finally revealed. After 13 years, discover how her role in the cover-up was carefully planned, managed, and spin-doctored.

Why is IBAC so bad at fighting corruption in Victoria? Are they simply incompetent, or did former Victorian Premier Dan Andrews set IBAC up to fail?

Who may have provided legal advice to Catherine Andrews? We track down the Andrews SUV. Why did Daniel Andrews’ Chief of Staff, Brett Curran, make calls to a high-profile Victoria Police officer following the crash?

This is the episode that will make you never doubt the truth again. Dr Shuey's forensic crash investigation revealed evidence never before examined in public. Why did Daniel Andrews dismiss Dr. Shuey's findings as conspiracy? We examine the evidence, the conclusions, and the questions that remain unanswered—and ask why Victoria Police continue to ignore it.

In S2, Episode 9 of Bike Boy – The True Crime Podcast, former police protection officer Chris Burson speaks publicly about his experiences protecting former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and his wife, Catherine Andrews. Chris shares his concerns about the couple's behaviour following the 2013 crash that nearly killed 15-year-old Ryan Meuleman. He also describes what he alleges were instances of reckless driving by Daniel Andrews, including running amber lights and forcing members of his protection unit to proceed through red lights to maintain the security convoy. The episode also explores claims of late-night socialising and drinking during Melbourne's COVID-19 lockdown period, raising questions about conduct, accountability and leadership. As always, listeners are encouraged to consider the evidence, the allegations and the responses for themselves.

S2 • Ep8: Ryan’s arrest shocked the investigation team. In this episode, we discuss the emotional fallout, the public reaction, and why many people believe Ryan’s life may have taken a very different path had the 2013 crash — and what followed — never occurred. We also examine the growing controversy surrounding the proposed Daniel Andrews statue, and ask why police moved swiftly against Ryan while continuing to avoid formally investigating the serious unanswered questions surrounding the Andrewses, and the crash itself.

S2 • Ep7: Why wasn’t Catherine Andrews breath tested for alcohol by police after the crash? And why did police keep changing their excuse for that failure in basic policing? How did these contradictions make their way all the way to IBAC — Victoria’s anti-corruption body — only to be handballed back to Victoria Police? And why didn’t these people realise we would eventually figure it out?

Years after the Blairgowrie crash that nearly killed teenager Ryan Meuleman, then Senior Constable Shayna Sage suddenly altered key police evidence connected to the case. And why did the timing closely align with Daniel Andrews’ highly scripted press conference, where he publicly presented his version of events to the media?

Episode 5 is unlike anything we planned to release. It is a confronting and heart-wrenching listen — but an important one. In this deeply personal and emotional episode, Peter Meuleman, Ryan's dad, reflects on the devastating events of the past week, Ryan’s declining mental health, and the toll 13 years of public scrutiny, political controversy, and unresolved questions have taken on his son and family.

Who really wrote those false statements to Police that Daniel and Catherine Andrews signed weeks after the crash. And should the disgraced couple face criminal charges for perverting the course of justice because of those statements?

How members of Victoria Police worked with Daniel Andrews’ wife, Catherine Andrews, to produce a police report that started as a very different document — written for something else entirely. Find out what the police involved say now about what happened then.

Ryan's sister describes how she fought to keep her brother alive—as confronting questions emerge. What happens when politicians and police get too close?

A lot has changed since Series 1. New evidence. New witnesses. We hear from Ryan’s sister, Samantha, who rushed to the crash scene — and couldn’t believe what she found. Now, one witness makes a stunning claim: that the crash was used to blackmail the Victorian Government.

Series 1 was just the beginning. Series 2 of Bike Boy — The True Crime Podcast launches April 15. New crimes. New evidence. New witnesses. Allegations of blackmail that go further than anyone could have imagined. Learn more about the 2013 near-fatal crash involving Catherine Andrews, former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews, and 15-year-old cyclist Ryan Meuleman. Why are police refusing to investigate?
