Summary

In this episode, the defense attorney from the west who's guested with us before tells the story of Michael Bryson-- a young man who disappeared in the summer of 2020 while attending what some described as a weeklong birthday birthday party at Hobo Campground in Oregon.

This episode focuses primarily on the public side of the case. Later this week, we will release an interview with Michael Bryson's parents who will share a more personal perspective on this mystery.

The Bryson family run a Facebook group we recommend checking out. You can find it at
