Summary

Skip the banter: 00:05:49

Karen Buckley had just moved to Glasgow for graduate school, ready to explore her new city and meet new people. One Saturday night, she went out dancing with friends and stepped outside the club for what should have been a brief moment. Instead, she crossed paths with a stranger who would change everything. Within hours, police would find traces of her belongings miles away, and the last person seen with her would start shifting his story. Allison tells us the rest of this story that ends in a place no one who loved Karen could have imagined.

0:20.1

So I'm glad to be back in these chairs. In the saddle. Sitting beside my life partner. Your cowboy. I don't know why I'm doing a lot of Western. You are definitely not a cowboy. No, definitely not. Probably the furthest thing from a cowboy. You said you've been on a horse, what, like once and it was biting you? It was like four or five times different horses every time

0:37.8

i get on a horse they bite me they reach back and bite me right in the shins i'm guessing because i'm so

0:51.2

are horse riders and horse owners i don't know what I did wrong to these horses.

0:55.2

I love animals. I love them all equally. And I think they're beautiful animals. They scare the living crap out of me. I'll tell you that much. They are so big and strong. Like if a horse just wants to buck you off, it can. If it, you know, if you fall off or whatever. I mean, you're kind of high up. like you're going to break something most likely.

0:51.6

And these things, you see the muscles on these things are gigantic.

0:53.6

Oh my gosh.

1:10.9

I want to say something. You said something funny yesterday when we were at the Cheesecake Factory.

1:15.1

Our kids go back to school this week. And every year before they go to school, we go to the mall, let them pick whatever they need, if they need new shirts or shoes, whatever. And then we go to the cheesecake factory. So some of us were ordering off of the Skinnylicious menu. And then you have to say what you said to the waitress. I think you know what's coming from this one. So they, all of them, I think all three you and our son and our daughter were all ordering off the Skinnylic at their calories and I was like well I'm gonna go ahead and order the chicken piccata off the fattie delicious menu and I looked at the waitress and she didn't even like make a smile and I was like oh man that was like okay like it wasn't like the best joke ever but it was like you know maybe she felt bad because I am fat and oh stop it you know it's like one of those things like you're not going to be like oh get out of here but it's like you like that like you just did maybe she felt bad because I am fat. Oh, stop it. You know, it's like one of those things.
