So, hey, we're recording a day early, so I feel like really off.

Not off in recording, but just like off like...

Schedule-wise.

I don't know what day it is.

Yeah.

Like any little slight thing to my normal thing, I'm like, oh,

okay, so we got a message from someone who asked to remain anonymous, but she says,

Hey, hey.

Hi.

Hey. So I'm listening to the Garbage Cookies charisma episode,

which is the full length and edited episode that you get on Patreon. But this information was

obviously in the regular episode too. And I wanted to put in my six degrees of separation to

David Koresh. My boss from when I worked in a forensic lab in Texas was one of the crime scene investigators after Waco and very solemnly talked about that whole scene and it was so sobering and awful. He said they were just scooping bullets and shells into literal buckets because there were so many and it was impossible to itemize them each individually.

They were so overrun with bullets and shells that they would find them everywhere for years after.

He said he would open a drawer and there would just be bags of spent bullets because they ran out of

places to store them. I'm not sure that would be the same case today since the Dallas lab has

grown so much since then and gotten fully online. So things are more particular and it's easier to itemize large numbers of items, etc. But yeah, I had seen documentaries and things on it, but it felt so much more real listening to him talk about the aftermath and to see his eyes kind of cloud over when he talked about it, you could tell it took a huge toll on him, even just to be

there after it was all done. And I was like, holy shit, thanks for this. God, we don't always think

about the toll it's going to take on the crime scene investigators. It was literally highlighted in the

episode. I mean, Stabler got fucking sent home because coming into a scene like that in that same

field where there's children and everything else is

a lot. And then I said, do you mind if I mention this? And she was like, yeah, maybe leave my name out of it. Yeah. You stupid bitch. Wow, I didn't see that. She said that. She was like, leave my name. What your mouth? You stupid cunt. And I was like, whoa. Yeah. The tone really totally changed. You messaged us. Jeez. But no, I was like, oh, you know, it's crazy that you don't always think about how it affects the people coming in, you know. You're so funny. You're like, geez, I didn't originally see that. She wrote that. But yeah, it's got to be tough. Right. And she goes exactly. He's a super stoic kind of guy. So seeing him affected even so long after the fact was very telling. Yeah. Fucking nightmare. I just thought other people would find that. Just interesting. I mean, because I wasn't thinking about that when I was deep diving and writing that or reading it to you. I was like, you know, thinking about how
