I'm Robert Larson. I served four years, seven months, and eight days for a crime that I did not commit.

Hi, I'm Brooke, and you're listening to Actual Innocence, a podcast bringing awareness to wrongful conviction and problems with the justice system.

I'm here with DeMarco. How are you doing this week, friend?

Brooke, I had a very interesting and exciting week.

First, you came and spent the weekend with me.

Wait, can we just stop there for a second?

Okay, yes.

I met DeMarco's family last weekend, and they were amazing.

We are working on this project that we will tell you about before the end of this month. And being there with DeMarco's friends and family was such a cool experience. And

Ms. Pam, thank you so much for sharing your house with us and just everybody who was there.

Thank you so much. Brooke. Yes. I'm so excited about this project. Me too. Man, I'm excited. But, you know, you was able to come spend a weekend with me. I was able to cook some meat pie for you. I didn't actually cook, but my wife cooked for you. That was so amazing. Actually, I was like, okay, what were the ingredients? Like, I went to the grocery store today, and I was like, I don't know what was in it. Dang it.

You know, just hanging out with you just the whole week. You know, then we was able to go to StoryCorps to top it off. Yeah, that was really cool, too. There's pictures on our, we have a Facebook group. It's called Podcast for Justice, and then it has the initials of all the podcasts that we're part of. you should check that out. Or we're on Twitter at actual in pod or at Brooke Giddings.

And Brooke?

Yes.

It's not open for me.

StoryCorps today for me again.

Me and Brandy are going again.

We're going to be in the Library of Congress.

I'm excited about that.

So that's history in the making.

That's so cool.
