  • Loveeeeee them

    Fun fact: Subvocalization while reading: Even when you read silently to yourself, the muscles in your tongue, mouth, and larynx still activate in a process called subvocalization 0.6.1. Your brain is essentially still sounding out the words internally to decode them 0.6.1.

  • Just keeps getter better!

    I really appreciate the research time and delivery from the heart that Allison gives, and how Mike says what all of us listeners are thinking. Tough cases are getting the kind of recognition the victims deserve. Lately I have gotten emotional right along you both, thank you for what you do.
