First thing? I first thing, if you remember, like, 32 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: because I know you've listened to the episode, and I thought, 33 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: and I just saw it literally seconds before he called. 34 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: I saw on his Instagram it said day two thousand, 35 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: five hundred and three of being wrongly imprisoned. And I thought, okay, well, 36 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: this is It's on his Instagram. I don't think he's 37 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: running the Instagram, like I don't, you know, I and 38 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: I he kind of made that clear because he had 39 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: no idea what I was talking about. 40 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: But it is clearly, but it is. 41 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: He's his official Instagram. And I thought, what a way 42 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 1: to kick off the conversation with you've been in prison 43 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: for two thousand, five hundred and three days. In hindsight, 44 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: that sucks, right, Like why if you're. 45 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: Going to hear that?

But so Lauren Bobert she a couple of 171 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: years ago, she was on a first date and she 172 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: went to see Beetlejuice the musical, and she may or 173 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: may not have been caught doing something inappropriate to her 174 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: first day while she was watching the show. 175 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 2: That's awesome. Yeah, that's amazing. 176 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, now knowing that and now he's just like, okay, 177 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 5: that's hilarious. 178 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so man, that's uh yeah, So that's I never 179 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: thought he would get it, because you know, he's probably 180 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: the amount of information he gets, I mean, it's very minimal, right. 181 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 5: I would think. So, I don't know, we got to 182 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 5: do an investigative. How do they get How much TV 183 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 5: can they watch to day? How can they how much 184 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 5: can they read what's going on in there? 185 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: That's a good question. I mean he wrote his book. 186 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: He has a book. I didn't talk about the book 187 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: on the pod, but he does have a book out, 188 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: and what do you do that? Well, I just I 189 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: knew I had limited time. So that's the other thing. 190 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: I didn't know how much time I was going to 191 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: have with him. I just knew I had until they 192 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: cut us off. So it ended up being fifteen minutes. 193 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: I didn't know I had fifteen minutes. I thought I 194 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,080 Speaker 1: could have seven, I could have eight, Like I I 195 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: didn't know, right, I just knew it wasn't going to 196 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: be a lot. So I had a list of questions 197 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to get to as mini as I could. 198 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask follow ups where appropriate. But I 199 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: also knew I had limited time. So the music, to me, 200 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 1: was more important to talk about than the book. 201 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you turned to the music. What's that all about? 202 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: Have you? You mean?

But it's that guy, 294 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: you know that they kind of chronicle like that he 295 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, allegedly paid to go down to Florida wherever 296 00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: and try to kill Carol, right yeah. And one of 297 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: his stances right now is that that guy allegedly lied, 298 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: you know, in his in his testimony or whatever. And 299 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: that's some of the facts. But I was when I 300 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: was reading about the case. He also made uh pay. 301 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if he made payments or offer to 302 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: make payments to somebody to go do this murder for 303 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: hire to and undercover FBI like agents. So yeah, what 304 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: even if this guy, Yeah, that's tough. That's tough. So 305 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what more he has, and I don't 306 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: know what kind of lawyer like team he's got because 307 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: that's not cheap, right, So. 308 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 5: Well, he has five dollars, so his lawyer team cannot 309 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 5: be very good, although they could be doing the game 310 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 5: where like they're actually great lawyers because they know at 311 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 5: the end of this thing, hopefully they'll get paid. 312 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: So you never know. You never know. But here's the deal. 313 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 5: It's really not fair that he's in there for twenty 314 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 5: one years because he's just fixing babies faces. 315 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: So he does that's. 316 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 2: Just fixing babies faces. I don't know why they're broken, 317 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 2: but he's fixing them. 318 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: That's the part that a lot of people are forgetting 319 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: is that he did do a lot of good and 320 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: he did this way before any of the criminal things. 321 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: He was fixing babies faces, you know, helping families that 322 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: couldn't afford that kind of medical procedures. And then he 323 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: also fed the hungry quite often. 324 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 2: He said on Carol Baskin, cut her up. 325 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: No, no, no, She's still alive. So that's the he 326 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: probably would do more of the good. You know, when 327 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: he gets out of prison.

Spoiler 591 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 7: alert for a movie that was twenty years ago. So 592 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 7: tonight I proceeded to go to a bar where I 593 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 7: played blackjack, and you might be. 594 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 4: Asking yourself, hey, how does one. 595 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 6: Go to a bar and play blackjack? 596 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 7: Well, in North Dakota, you can play blackjack at a bar. 597 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 7: The bar just can't run the blackjack table. The blackjack 598 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 7: tables run by a charity, whether it's Boys and Girls 599 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 7: Club of America or it's you know, the Salvation Army. 600 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 7: Somebody's running that blackjack table and collecting the profits, and 601 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 7: the bar is just selling you the drinks. So in 602 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 7: some ways, in retrospect, when I look back at tonight's actions, 603 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 7: I'm very charitable because I proceeded to set down one 604 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 7: hundred dollars on their fine black check table, and I 605 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 7: proceeded to leave with none of that money. Which it's 606 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 7: a bad it's a bad. 607 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 6: Omen for a couple of for a couple of reasons. 608 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 6: Number one, you never want to start a vacation. I mean, 609 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 6: this is going to be the first of perhaps twelve 610 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 6: travelogs that I'm going to be shared with you, and 611 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 6: I do not want to start with a loss. And 612 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 6: number two, how can I have any confidence gambling after 613 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 6: this point if I haven't won? 614 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 8: Because you know, as much as we talk about the 615 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 8: strategy of gambling, winning is so much better than losing, 616 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 8: and especially when you're at. 617 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 4: These tables where perhaps you have lost. 618 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 3: Uh you know what, what what fountain of luck is the. 619 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 4: That just you have that one gambler there that's. 620 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 6: Just they're too drunk to play, or they're too dope 621 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 6: to play, and they just happened to always at that 622 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 6: Ace nine or that you know, not even the perfect blackjack, 623 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 6: they just happened to like just luck into it. So 624 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 6: at the table tonight, I had that, I had that 625 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 6: that that bimbo himbo guy sitting all in the left, 626 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 6: he's playing two hands at a time, He's not paying 627 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 6: attention at all. 628 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 4: He's constantly happened to be reprimanded by the dealer to 629 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 4: just pay attention, just to wave his hand over his 630 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 4: pair of faceguards. Yet this guy is just raking it in. 631 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 6: Meanwhile, you're truly playing by the book, probably maybe, but 632 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 6: playing you. 633 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 4: Know, very straightforward. Nothing, can't can't catch a card. 634 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 6: To save my life, drinking, you know, Budweiser after Budweiser, 635 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 6: trying to rejuvenate that luck and nothing. But there's for 636 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 6: a good cause, so you know, perhaps there is something 637 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 6: to that question when he's heavy on my mind though, 638 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 6: am I going to be able to get up tomorrow 639 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 6: morning to spend the day with my family and then 640 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 6: go to a casino a bar in North Dakota and 641 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 6: do it again? 642 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 4: Chances seem pretty likely. Well, do you know how it goes? 643 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: There? You go Eric's first trouble log on vacation and 644 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: he's losing his ass at the blackjack table at bars. 645 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: Which is an interesting situation that you can just walk 646 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 1: into a bar in North Dakota and be able to 647 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: grab a seat at the table and have them sponsored 648 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: by local organization. It's kind of like so like here 649 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: in Omaha over Fourth of July, you had fireworks tents everywhere. 650 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 1: You know, everybody's selling fireworks. You had to pick which 651 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: one you want to go to not based on the 652 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: deals that they were offering, you know, by eighteen or 653 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: buy one, get eighteen free or whatever it is. No, 654 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: this was like go to this tent because it supports 655 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: the local library, or go to this tent and it 656 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: supports the Little League team that plays down the street. 657 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: Like it's just stuff like that. It'd be crazy if 658 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: you walked up to a bar in North Dakota and 659 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: you walk up to the one of the tables and 660 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, all winnings or all losses in your case, 661 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:30,240 Speaker 1: Eric go towards fixing kids' faces.
