| 0:00.0 | I would say this work, I think that the interviews that I've heard you do are, they're so human, |
| 0:03.8 | and you're looking not at kind of legal mumbo-jumbo that goes on, and that's so much of what I do. |
| 0:11.1 | I want to hear the human aspect of it, and I think that given your background and what you're interested in |
| 0:15.8 | in the stories that you tell, that's really what I find so fascinating, is letting people tell their own stories. |
| 0:24.6 | Because these people have had their stories told for them for so long. They've been defined for so long by something they didn't do. |
| 0:29.6 | And to undo that narrative, the only person who can really do it is those individuals themselves. |

| 1:11.9 | finish up our visit with the Pennsylvania Innocence Project and talk about some of the issues that lead to wrongful |
| 1:17.5 | conviction. This episode is being brought to you by two sponsors, Simply Safe and Blue Apron. Thanks so much to |
| 1:24.3 | everyone who supported our sponsors and shared their experiences on social media. |
| 1:28.8 | I also wanted to mention that during one of my interviews in this episode, my cat ran across my desk, |
| 1:34.6 | knocked off my drink, and got tangled in my microphone cord, knocking the mic over in the process. |
| 1:39.9 | If you want to hear that clip, you can go to patreon.com slash actual in pod. |
| 1:46.4 | Let's talk about home security. |
| 1:49.0 | Thousands of people seeking home security get ripped off every day. |
| 1:53.2 | And the home security industry wants you to believe it's your only option. |
