| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone, I'm Ashley Bannfield and this is Drop Dead Serious. I'm coming to you from my mom's house in Florida, hence the different backdrop. |
| 0:12.7 | But I wanted to bring you this podcast tonight. It is April the 13th because tomorrow I'm headed to the Bahamas, actually. |
| 0:22.8 | I'm going to start looking for myself about all of these different places that Brian Hooker said he was right before his wife |
| 0:29.7 | Lynette Hooker went off the back of the boat and he was unable to save her. I felt like the story |
| 0:36.2 | was very fishy just because I'm a boater but I'm learning a lot more and I was unable to save her. I felt like the story was very fishy, |

| 1:12.9 | there could be some currents there. The wind could be blowing. Would it be enough to separate |
| 1:18.0 | somebody like that? Probably not, but maybe. I was kind of hoping for something more definitive, |
| 1:26.3 | but I'm going to go there myself and talk to more mariners. |
| 1:29.5 | I'm actually going to be going to a marina right there at Elbow Key. |
| 1:33.7 | And I'm going to take the route that Brian and Lynette took to spend the day in Elbow Key |
| 1:39.2 | and the route that they took in the dinghy, supposedly to go out to their anchored boat |
| 1:43.7 | where catastrophe befell them, according to Brian. And then I'm going to take the route that Brian |
| 1:47.9 | says his dingy actually drifted. But I have something I want to show you right now that |
