This is a longshot, but does anyone have a link to a transcript of this interview with Chessie that aired four months ago?

TIA
Here are Chessie's exact words from the first half ONLY of the interview, when she talks about Brittney. I think they are correct. I haven't included her friend Kathy's conversation about her son, and I've drastically cut the radio presenter's conversation and questions as they are far, too extensive and repetitive to transcribe. I've just put what's necessary to show the essence of the questions CW was answering.
P is presenter.
C is Chessie Wood
P: Chessie, have you been - all this time you where there, I imagine, anyway I don't really know the situation but knowing that your friend Kathy's stepson has been missing and all of a sudden you're thrown into the same world of the disappeared. Was it - I don't know how to word it but because I have a daughter missing I'm just gonna be blunt, was it helpful to have somebody who's been through this, so you can see them surviving, or was it absolute disbelief that it has touched your circle again?
C: It was hurtful. It was very hurtful but at the same time it is helpful, to talk to somebody's face and know they know my pain. I wouldn't wish that pain on no-one but it does help to know that Kathy feels exactly what I feel.
P: And you know it's hard to imagine that, that friends could be able to hold each other up like that but it can and it's got to be nothing short of a godsend because the support ??? I get out of my friends, even my best friend, whose own son who - on 5th Aug this year it will be 13 years since her son was hit and killed by a car when he was 16..... He was quite a bit younger but its still her son and without her support I don't know how I would ever get through it, but it's not the same thing as she doesn't have these unanswered questions. As painful as it is, she got her answers and........so when you look at Brittney's disappearance it leads you almost into one direction, at least that's my opinion. What do you think Chessie? Do you think you ccould pretty well say you might know what might have happened to Brittney or do you think there's a huge gap of different choices that might have befallen her?
C: Um, there's different choices but there's that one - (sigh) there's this one, we try to get away from it and it's just all the evidence we have. In Kathy's situation, Kathy and Bow do not have a lot of support, unlike me in my case with Brittney. We had the KlaasKids Foundation, we had the community, we had hundreds of people looking for Brittney and umm, but the evidence shows she got in the truck with her uncle and um went to a place not too far from here named Styxx River. We know this by telephone pings. Her phone's pinging exactly together all the way over there, so we got to Styxx River. She comes up, she walks outta my door, May 30th of last year and she caught a ride with her uncle at the end of my street. I thought she was going to her friend's and um, it seems like everything just ends at Styxx River. So that's why we had hundreds of people with dogs and sonar and boats and everything looking for my daughter. But it's a bunch of rivers, woods and water. Teenagers and young adults hang out and go down the river, so there's all kind of clothing and shoes and stuff just all over the place. So it was a nightmare but I just really felt like I was going to find her there. (crying) Klaaskids told me something and I'll never forget it. He told me that 'You're gonna want this to be a sprint but prepare for a marathon', and I never felt so much truth in a statement from a human being in my life. Cos that's exactly how I felt. I needed to get the answers right now and it don't happen that way too often.
P: No, it doesn't, especially when the last person to see Brittney was her uncle Don....How long after the last time you saw her - or anyone saw her - did you guys realize um, you know, where's Brittney?
C: Wednesday night at 7.30 she left my house. Friday I looked at my husband and I told him if I
do not hear from Brittney tomorrow morning I'm calling the police. And later that day, the uncle she left with, put a gun to his head and killed hisself. So-
P: So the moment you were going to be calling cops the next day, he went out and he shot himself and he was the last person to be seen with her? So that leaves a couple of unasked questions in our mind. It is truly does. Why do you think - do you think he knew that whatever happened, he was going to be caught for? Did he talk to anybody-
C: (Talking over the top of the presenter) I don't really - there's so many unanswered questions there. You know like - I believe (crying) I believe my daughter confronted him about some things and she paid the ultimate price for it. We just can't find what he done with her! Cos he cowarded out and took his own life and left us here with unanswered questions..(crying)
P: And that's right. He did coward out. You'd think at least if nothing else, if he was a man enough he would have left a note you know, saying anything about um, you know, look here but he didn't. You're very, very right. Now, we've got some questions in the chat room...I'm not sure if you're answering questions....One here says, did you and Brittney have a fight that... It actually says what did CW and BW fight about that caused BW to decide she had to get out of the house? Like, I don't know if you want to get into a question and answer period-
C: (Talking over presenter) That is Fine. That is fine. Um, me and Brittney did not get into a fight. I asked her um, my husband was going out down to work and I asked her 'Hey Brittney, would you sit here and help me out with your little sister and brother?', because she loved her little sister and brother; she wanted a little sister for 17 years and she finally got one and she snapped at me. But now I realize she snapped at me because she was just gonna go and confront her uncle (crying) about some deep dark crap I had no idea was even in existence. So at that time no, I didn't understand but after her disappearance it all started making sense.
P: And that make perfect sense to me. To the person I think who asked the questions..(explains Brittney's case, and that the other crimes didn't take place in Brittney's home, etc)... had something to do with her decision to finally confront this person?
C: Well if you knew Brittney, she was spunky. She was a firecracker. I always told my kinds, stand up for what you believe in; I don't care if it's animal rights, I don't care if it's against abortion, I don't care what it's for. If you believe in something strong enough, make sure you always stand up for it. And Brittney - a victim confided in Brittney two days before her disappearance and I believe it sent Brittney over the edge and she went and confronted the situation (presenter starts talking over) and we've never seen her again (crying)-
P: I do believe that's what happened too Chessie..What we're gonna do is, we're going to take a short break...
