  • Pet peeve

    It never ceases to amaze me how even “educated” people are constantly misusing “I” and “me” in a sentence. I am not a grammarian, but this is basic stuff! It is so distracting, I can’t stand it! Or, should I say “me can’t stand it!” ?

    Why couldn’t either of you be honest about what Gayle King meant? It was obvious. Meghan Kelly nailed it. Listen to what your boss said on her podcast. She’s the bravest journalist/lawyer and is never afraid to report the truth.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Christa Pike’s FAILED Execution, Cornell 7 Case, and Philadelphia House of Horrors, with Qenny Brews
Q: How believable is Eugene Horsch's claim that he knew nothing about what was in his basement?
Qenny Brews says he doubts the defense will be persuasive, describing it as Horsch's best chance of avoiding severe consequences. Ashleigh Merchant notes that prosecutors still face the challenge of proving deaths without bodies or physical remains.
Christa Pike’s FAILED Execution, Cornell 7 Case, and Philadelphia House of Horrors, with Qenny Brews
Q: What went wrong with Christa Pike's lethal injection?
Ashleigh Merchant says execution staff struggled to establish an intravenous line, and the pentobarbital reportedly entered Pike's arm tissue rather than her bloodstream. After two doses failed, the protocol provided no clear next steps, and she was taken to a hospital.
KJ Biermann Pleads Not Guilty, Siders Patriarch Charges Dismissed, and Cornell 7 Phone Calls, with Jordan Berman
Q: What are the grounds to send the case back to juvenile court?
The judge considers factors including the teenager's age and whether he is amenable to treatment, with psychological testimony likely to inform the decision.
KJ Biermann Pleads Not Guilty, Siders Patriarch Charges Dismissed, and Cornell 7 Phone Calls, with Jordan Berman
Q: How big of a deal is it that the lawyers say he passed the polygraph, and isn't that inadmissible?
The result would not be admissible before a jury, but defense attorneys may publicize it to influence public opinion and signal confidence in their client.
Sandra Birchmore’s Texts, Alex Murdaugh's DNA Win, and Deadly Discipline Trial, with Cathy Russon
Q: What do you think about the defense and the prosecution now? Do you get any sense this is what I was curious about listening to these pretrial motions, if their theories are going to change because, you know, theories always get tweaked a little after the first go around in my experience.
Russon expected the defense to do more in the retrial but did not expect the prosecution to change its theory. She highlighted disputes over DNA testing and the defense's new challenges to the ammunition evidence.
