foreign [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] welcome everybody to off the Record the
00:00:23
best show on the planet don't take our word for it take everybody else in the planet's word for
00:00:30
it episode number 76 a lot still going on with this Idaho murders case I didn't think it was going to blow up
00:00:40
this big in media but I think what happened was people's thirst for knowledge and then once they made an
00:00:49
arrest people got pretty thirsty for who is this guy and what what is he doing and also I
00:00:57
think it's it's very strange because we have a situation where you arrest the guy
00:01:03
so far away and then then it comes out that we have them on dash cams from police officers
00:01:11
pulling over this individuals for traffic and fractions in the state of Indiana so
00:01:19
people started trying to I think keep up with the information that was coming out
00:01:25
and then if you're a YouTuber or you're a podcaster or whatever and you're putting out that information the
00:01:33
numbers go through the roof and so that that just creates those content creators wanting to put more
00:01:41
content out about this so it's kind of the the fire feeds the fire if you will well like Michael Jordan taught us all
00:01:49
the ceiling is the roof um and he said that roof and every or maybe the he said the roof is the
00:01:57
ceiling I can't remember it's one of those two and everybody in America was like what the hell is Michael Jordan
00:02:02
talking about he said that at a at a a rally for the Tar Heels basketball team and then they go on to win the
00:02:09
championship so then we're just reminded once again whatever Jordan does or says
00:02:14
is right you don't question it you just get on board and win a championship to add to some of the hype if you will this
00:02:22
is very difficult case for me to talk about because there's there's all this hype surrounding it there's all this you
00:02:29
know drive for information like you said and people wanting to put eyes and ears
00:02:33
their eyes and ears on it and trying to wrap their mind around everything so there's all this hype and then also
00:02:40
within some of the details of what we're learning of the information that we're learning there's also some like
00:02:47
humor to it and I'll get into that in a little bit but that's why it's a difficult case for me to report on and
00:02:53
discuss because four beautiful wonderful innocent people lost their lives for a total senseless
00:03:02
act of horrific violence so I have to remind myself of that and I feel like I'm dancing on a fine line here because
00:03:09
you don't want to go too much into the hype or too much into the humor adding to the hype okay so first it was this
00:03:16
mystery and of course it's on a college campus so everybody is dialed in and really wants to know who was responsible
00:03:23
what exactly happened and why well then an arrest is made and I think it just gets even
