0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. Welcome back to Crime Weekly. I'm Stephanie Harlow. And I'm Derek Lovacer. |
0:20.8 | So before we dive into today's episode, I do want to address something that I was seeing |
0:25.7 | in the comments of the last episode. I wouldn't have usually talked about it except that it was, |
0:30.5 | you know, I think like five or six people who said something, you know, Derek and I are in |
0:33.9 | the comment section on YouTube. On the YouTube video, we love talking to you guys. You know, |
0:39.9 | we feel as truly a community, we value your feedback and your opinions. And sometimes, you |
0:44.3 | know, you make us see things that we didn't see before in a different way. But it's also |
0:48.3 | hard to respond to the comments and truly make yourself like understood social media doesn't |
0:52.7 | allow for a really in depth, the back and forth conversation. So I just want to talk about it real |
0:57.2 | quick. In the last episode, we use an example of the way that Aaron Hernandez spoke to different |

1:20.8 | the practice of alternating between two or more languages or varieties of languages in conversation. |
1:25.7 | End quote. So basically, some people feel that they have to behave and speak in a certain way |
1:31.2 | when they're with a certain group of people. But this isn't the way they would normally speak or |
1:35.2 | behave. They just do so to appear like professional or fit in or not make anyone uncomfortable, |
1:40.8 | etc. Now, according to Harvard Business Review, this is been a strategy that's long been used by |
1:46.7 | minorities to successfully navigate interracial interactions. And I mean, I would argue that a lot |
1:52.6 | of us probably use code switching from time to time. Like, I'm not going to speak to my mother |
1:57.3 | in the same way I would speak to my friends. I'm not going to speak to my employer the same way I |
2:00.9 | would speak at home with my family. I have a tendency to swear a lot like at home. And while I may |
