| 0:00.0 | Well, so many of our cases are compelling and outrageous that it's not hard to get up in the morning and come in and work on these cases. |
| 0:19.0 | Actual Innocence is a podcast that tells the stories of people who serve time for crimes they did not commit. |

| 0:36.7 | The Helpers 1 and 2 received so much positive feedback that I decided to record some more Helpers |
| 0:42.1 | episodes. This episode specifically focuses on the appeal process and will feature interviews from |
| 0:48.0 | three current or former appellate attorneys. I'm Brooke and these are the helpers. It's so easy for me to promote our sponsor, |
| 0:56.0 | Bombas Sox, because I love their product. I will never promote a sponsor that I don't believe in, |
| 1:01.9 | but by having Bomba Sox as a sponsor, I feel like I'm able to help people in the midst of a podcast |
| 1:07.9 | designed to help people. And now it's time for me to introduce our |
| 1:12.0 | Bombus Kid of the Week. My name is Isabella. I'm 10 years old. I asked you to test something out. |
| 1:18.1 | Can you tell me what it is? I have been testing out socks. How do these socks feel? These socks feel |
| 1:24.4 | really comfortable. It's really soft and cozy. and I feel like I can run in them. |
| 1:30.1 | Do you play any sports? I used to play flag football. And do you think these socks would be |
| 1:35.0 | comfortable for that? Yes. Do you like the way they look? I do. So what do you like about the way they |
| 1:40.1 | look? I like the little stripes at the top.. I'm wearing the black one and there's like pink |
| 1:46.8 | stripes at the top and I think that's like giving a little touch and I like it. How do you feel out regular |
| 1:51.6 | socks? Regular socks kind of itch me so like when I'm at school I always have to try to like |
| 1:58.5 | take my shoe off and ish my foot because of the socks. And these socks don't do that? Nope. What's a really good thing that happens when someone buys a pair of these socks? When someone buys a pair of these socks, the company gives them to poor people, which I think is really nice. Would you recommend these socks to other kids? Yes, I would. They really feel like |
| 2:18.2 | heaven and you could play, I think you can play, like, a lot of sports in these. Remember, you can be |
