| 0:00.0 | Darkcast Network, the light shines brightest on our indie podcasts. |
| 0:10.3 | On December 21st, 2020, a frantic father called police and said that while he was out gathering firewood, |
| 0:20.2 | his two little boys, Orrin and Orson West, |
| 0:23.7 | who were four and three years old, respectively, managed to get out of the backyard and disappear. |
| 0:30.9 | The next day, they spoke to reporters outside of their home, laid out their whole story, |
| 0:35.4 | and thanked people for caring, thanked people for searching, |
| 0:39.5 | and laid out a timeline of events. But as we covered in our season three premiere episode in |
| 0:48.1 | January, the story never added up. And if you'll listen to that episode, I asked the question, were they even |
| 0:58.1 | in California City, California on December 21st, 2020 when they reported missing? As it turns out, |

| 1:32.3 | ... Welcome back, everyone. I know you're already like, what is happening. This is weird. And you're |
| 2:08.7 | right. It is weird. I am all alone in our basement podcasting studio. Ethan is out of the country |
| 2:16.5 | currently. I'm actually going to be joining him for a few |
| 2:19.3 | days tomorrow, but because he is going on this long work trip, our recording, scheduling, |
| 2:26.2 | everything got very messed up. So this is what's going on. I am going to bring you the update |
| 2:32.9 | to the Orrin-Norson-West case this week alone, but then |
| 2:38.8 | after that, we have recorded a two-part episode. |
