| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone, it's Lindsay. |
| 0:02.8 | And it's Jen. |
| 0:03.8 | We wanted to take a quick moment to make a small edit to last week's episode about the Pike County Massacre. |
| 0:12.2 | We realized after the fact that for most of the episode, we referred to them as the Rodin family |
| 0:19.1 | because as we were researching the case, it was, |

| 1:30.4 | And we were kind of like, oh, my gosh, wait a minute. |
| 1:32.5 | I don't know that we did. |
| 1:34.3 | And again, it wasn't intentional. |
