The Welcome to the great detectives of old-time radio from Boise, Idaho.

0:34.6

This is your host, Adam Graham.

0:36.7

In a moment, we're going to bring you this week's

0:39.0

episode of a life in your hands. But first, I do want to encourage you, if you're enjoying the

0:45.7

podcast, to please follow us using your favorite podcast software. I also want to encourage you

0:52.0

to check out my wife's business, Ashura Clips.

0:55.8

That is available, laura rose.com slash ashira, ash, I-R-A.

a correction episode like we did with Neuro Wolf during our last listener support and

2:16.8

appreciation campaign. We have been going through

2:20.1

old episodes doing some optimization, and in the course of that, I've stumbled across a few

2:28.1

episodes where closing commentary somehow did not get attached to the file, or has become missing somehow. And one series

2:37.7

that we have this with is a lot in your hands. And a particular episode which we will play for you.

2:44.9

We have another episode like that that we will play at the end of these specials, so in five weeks. I'll talk after the
