Hard Knox with Amanda Knox Old School: Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (Dr. Kari Nixon)
Welcome to Old School, where we revisit some of our best episodes from previous years with some current reflections on why these episodes are still fascinating. In this “Old School” episode, Dr. Kari Nixon joins Amanda to talk the intersection of death, disease, and community and how illness impacts identity. It's a topic she pursued without even realizing that she herself was a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy, which despite the flashy true crime narratives often manifests in much more subtle ways than you might expect.
