Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: The podcast network is called Arrow dot Net r r
- 0:03Speaker 1: oe dot Net. Twenty different podcasts to choose from. I
- 0:07Speaker 1: mean they are all over the place. Any program director
- 0:11Speaker 1: would say, I don't know, man, this guy's all over
- 0:13Speaker 1: the place.
- 0:13Speaker 2: We need to pull him back.
- 0:15Speaker 1: Ah ah, because I know what your choice is. I
- 0:17Speaker 1: know what you want in your life when you're driving
- 0:19Speaker 1: in the car or you're sitting at work. One of
- 0:21Speaker 1: the hottest features is Forest Stories. I live in a forest.
- 0:25Speaker 1: I've been here for over thirty two years. The question
- 0:28Speaker 1: is what's the story? Do we know anything about this
- 0:32Speaker 1: lay of land that had people on it long before
- 0:35Speaker 1: I got here? For stories only on Arrow dot Net
- 0:39Speaker 1: r r oe dot Net. Enjoy your exploration, dude. I
- 0:44Speaker 1: can't thank you enough for doing this book. And the
- 0:46Speaker 1: reason why is because as a broadcaster, I've been a
- 0:49Speaker 1: part of this story way back in the beginning, from
- 0:51Speaker 1: people that were podcasters to journalists and and so for
- 0:55Speaker 1: you to release this book, you give us something here
- 0:58Speaker 1: we haven't had yet. It's a different point of view
- 1:01Speaker 1: and direction, and I can't thank you enough for giving
- 1:03Speaker 1: us broken plea.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Thanks, Errol. I really appreciate talking to you. I do.
- 1:09Speaker 1: It's one of those stories that I don't know why
- 1:11Speaker 1: time won't forget it like everything else. And I think
- 1:14Speaker 1: it's because we're all searching for something and what is
- 1:17Speaker 1: it you're looking for? Because I know that mine is
- 1:19Speaker 1: probably different as well, because I'm from the Pacific Northwest.
- 1:22Speaker 1: This is in my territory of the world.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Look, I think the reason we're talking about it is
- 1:28Speaker 3: it's a horrific crime. It was an emotional investment by people,
- 1:33Speaker 3: not just in the United States but around the world.
- 1:35Speaker 3: Everybody tuned in to the horror of it. I've got
- 1:37Speaker 3: four kids. We look at these college students and say,
- 1:40Speaker 3: we all went through that stage in life, and who
- 1:43Speaker 3: could envision waking up at four o'clock in the morning
- 1:46Speaker 3: and having this type of evil violate that world? And
- 1:51Speaker 3: it resonates because it's so traumatic, but it lingers because
- 1:56Speaker 3: nobody in lieu of a trial ever got answers to
- 1:59Speaker 3: the qu questions that were so compelling.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Oh my god, and the residents of Moscow, in the
- 2:06Speaker 1: way that they bring their story, you can feel their
- 2:08Speaker 1: hearts beating while they're talking because it still affects them
- 2:12Speaker 1: and so you being right there firsthand, My god, dude,
- 2:15Speaker 1: how did you protect your own heart.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Boy, what a tough question. I spent in the research
- 2:22Speaker 2: phase of this.
- 2:22Speaker 3: I spent six hours or six months of twelve hour days,
- 2:26Speaker 3: seven days a week, mired in the evidence, and it's horrific.
- 2:32Speaker 3: I think that what helped is my career in law enforcement,
- 2:36Speaker 3: my careers in investigative journalists. But I've also lived another
- 2:39Speaker 3: life in war and combat and conflict around the world.
- 2:43Speaker 3: So if anybody had to take this on, I think
- 2:46Speaker 3: I was best suited in terms of being able to
- 2:49Speaker 3: handle that aspect of it.
- 2:50Speaker 1: And listeners need to understand this evidence was not always
- 2:53Speaker 1: readily available to everybody. I mean, you guys had to
- 2:56Speaker 1: have a patience kind of wait and see type of
- 2:58Speaker 1: thing as to what the courts were going to be
- 3:00Speaker 1: able to release.
- 3:02Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's true, but a lot of the I
- 3:05Speaker 3: would say, when I started this book, almost everything in
- 3:08Speaker 3: the book had not been seen before.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Then a lot of it has been released. But there
- 3:12Speaker 3: is a great deal of information in this book, and
- 3:14Speaker 3: I mean a great deal of information, four hundred and
- 3:16Speaker 3: thirty page book that people have never seen before. And
- 3:20Speaker 3: I use the information itself, you know, I present this
- 3:22Speaker 3: book as if I were an FBI agent presenting a
- 3:25Speaker 3: grand jury prosecution. I say, here's the evidence, you make
- 3:28Speaker 3: up the decision, and I hand it over to the reader.
- 3:30Speaker 3: It is many people will be shocked at what they
- 3:33Speaker 3: did not know about this case.
- 3:35Speaker 1: You know, and you being in law enforcement, and I'm
- 3:39Speaker 1: just a broadcaster. But the thing about it is, though,
- 3:41Speaker 1: is I feel like that Brian set into pace and
- 3:45Speaker 1: tone as to anybody who's committed a crime anymore, go
- 3:49Speaker 1: the cold weight that Brian presented. Do not say anything,
- 3:52Speaker 1: don't have a reaction, because it seems like everybody beyond
- 3:55Speaker 1: Brian has been a cold bastard.
- 3:59Speaker 2: Erro hit on the head.
- 4:00Speaker 3: I mean, it starts with what everybody remembers of this case,
- 4:03Speaker 3: which is Brian Coberger's standing up when he first pled
- 4:06Speaker 3: not guilty. He didn't even do it, his attorney did.
- 4:09Speaker 3: He stared blank face in that core proceeding. And that's
- 4:13Speaker 3: what we know of him to this day. Is Brian
- 4:15Speaker 3: Coberger a very strange dude. Unequivocally, as a matter of fact.
- 4:20Speaker 3: One of the things I found was a e motion
- 4:22Speaker 3: in lemony filed by his attorney, An Taylor, before Judge Hipler,
- 4:27Speaker 3: where she asked the court to stipulate that the prosecution
- 4:30Speaker 3: could not call him a psychopath. So that's what we're
- 4:34Speaker 3: dealing with. We're dealing with the perception of him as
- 4:36Speaker 3: a person that was going to play out in court.
- 4:38Speaker 3: So we can stipulate the Brian Coberger behaviorally is a
- 4:42Speaker 3: very odd dude. We could also say he was a
- 4:44Speaker 3: very bright guy. He was a PhD candidate in criminology.
- 4:48Speaker 3: He was a grown man, an educated man, a very
- 4:51Speaker 3: smart man with very odd characteristics, and that certainly might
- 4:54Speaker 3: have might have come up in trial.
- 4:57Speaker 2: When it did not go to trial and he went
- 4:59Speaker 2: away to prison, we never got to look at any
- 5:00Speaker 2: of that.
- 5:01Speaker 1: I want to sit down with a lot of these
- 5:03Speaker 1: armchair quarterback, you know, true crime people, and have them
- 5:06Speaker 1: go through your book broken Plea, because I know they're
- 5:09Speaker 1: gonna sit there and they're gonna yellow highlight the dang
- 5:11Speaker 1: hell out of that book because they're also looking for
- 5:14Speaker 1: something here, because it's still one of those situations. First
- 5:18Speaker 1: of all, you've got a split level home here for
- 5:19Speaker 1: how did he even know this? How did he know
- 5:21Speaker 1: what room to go into? And really and like like
- 5:25Speaker 1: you even put in this book, why we're two still living.
- 5:28Speaker 1: I don't understand. I mean, I got compassion for them,
- 5:30Speaker 1: but what happened and was he scared away?
- 5:36Speaker 2: First of all, great, great.
- 5:37Speaker 3: Great start to this, And I've got to bring up
- 5:39Speaker 3: something that I think is important. Three and a half
- 5:43Speaker 3: years after the fact, people still talk about this case.
- 5:45Speaker 3: During those three and a half years, everybody from Reddit
- 5:50Speaker 3: discussions to mainstream media have come up with their own
- 5:54Speaker 3: ideas about what happened. You know, there are a million
- 5:56Speaker 3: people know this case. There are probably nine hundred and
- 5:58Speaker 3: ninety nine thousand different theory co opinions of what's going on.
- 6:02Speaker 3: All of that to date has been based on what
- 6:05Speaker 3: we've seen in a court proceeding buried in a gag order,
- 6:11Speaker 3: meaning other than the dateline piece about the video and
- 6:15Speaker 3: a couple other things, people know very very very little.
- 6:18Speaker 3: Then this book comes out and it threatens a lot
- 6:21Speaker 3: of those narratives because they say, well, you know this,
- 6:24Speaker 3: you wouldn't believe.
- 6:25Speaker 2: The stuff up that I've heard. That's in nature of
- 6:26Speaker 2: the world we live in. All I ask.
- 6:29Speaker 3: All I ask that is, in order to have a
- 6:30Speaker 3: meaningful conversation, look at the evidence that I present, not mine,
- 6:36Speaker 3: but the prosecutions and what we've seen from the defense.
- 6:39Speaker 3: I lay this thing is based on documents. This is
- 6:41Speaker 3: not a bunch of theories. This is the documents and
- 6:45Speaker 3: an opportunity to come up with it. So great conversation.
- 6:48Speaker 3: That's how we move forward as a society. But let's
- 6:50Speaker 3: look at the facts.
- 6:51Speaker 1: Oh my god, your honesty is spot on, because you
- 6:53Speaker 1: are so right. We all have our own interpretation. We
- 6:56Speaker 1: have been to every clickbait site. We think we've got
- 6:59Speaker 1: it all down. We are the masters. Yet it's like, no,
- 7:03Speaker 1: we're not. And that's what's your book here, broken plea
- 7:07Speaker 1: is going to introduce to people. It's like, we're okay
- 7:09Speaker 1: to admit that we're wrong. But now let's get back
- 7:12Speaker 1: on track.
- 7:13Speaker 3: I say that, Listen, I'm not saying I'm right because
- 7:16Speaker 3: I don't say anything.
- 7:17Speaker 2: I have no theories because I don't say anything in.
- 7:19Speaker 3: This book about what I think. I say. I don't
- 7:22Speaker 3: care what your theory is. Look at this information and
- 7:26Speaker 3: let's look at it and adjustin and come up with
- 7:29Speaker 3: new theories and new ideas based on information that people
- 7:34Speaker 3: haven't had.
- 7:34Speaker 2: If somebody wants to take a shot for.
- 7:37Speaker 3: Any reason, whatever, because if they haven't read the book,
- 7:41Speaker 3: I don't care if you read this book, like this
- 7:44Speaker 3: conversation we're having now, if we read this book and
- 7:47Speaker 3: talk about this information, I think we're going to move
- 7:51Speaker 3: in meaningful ways toward truth.
- 7:53Speaker 2: And that was my objective.
- 7:54Speaker 1: See, I guess I'm the freak because to me, it's
- 7:57Speaker 1: not a book you read, it's a book you study.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I would into this thing with completely a different point
- 8:02Speaker 1: of direction in view. And maybe it's because I've done
- 8:04Speaker 1: all these interviews for the past few years, but still
- 8:07Speaker 1: I went in there expecting exactly what you gave me,
- 8:11Speaker 1: and that is answers or things that are going to
- 8:13Speaker 1: make me dig even deeper. Now you are that seed
- 8:17Speaker 1: that really pushes us forward.
- 8:20Speaker 3: I can't thank er, er. I talked to a lot
- 8:23Speaker 3: of people. I can't thank you enough for saying that
- 8:26Speaker 3: this is the seed that pushes forward my intention and
- 8:29Speaker 3: spending a year of my life working on this particular book,
- 8:32Speaker 3: and this is my sixth book that I'm spending year
- 8:36Speaker 3: in my life hoping somebody like you would say that
- 8:39Speaker 3: I want to engage with the reader and looking at
- 8:43Speaker 3: these things and finding based on documents and the truth,
- 8:48Speaker 3: where we go from here. I can't thank you enough
- 8:50Speaker 3: of that perspective.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Well, you also put us in a what would I do? Situation?
- 8:55Speaker 1: Because I mean, I really did sit there for the
- 8:57Speaker 1: longest time, and I wrote about it in my journal.
- 9:00Speaker 1: I would it take her or him eight hours to
- 9:02Speaker 1: report this? When you when you were an eyewitness of
- 9:06Speaker 1: this situation? Eight hours? How many times do I grab
- 9:09Speaker 1: that smartphone when I see a car accident and it's wait,
- 9:12Speaker 1: I could have waited eight hours or do something here,
- 9:14Speaker 1: but I didn't. That's that's why I'm saying what I
- 9:16Speaker 1: want to know the person's heart that waited eight hours.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Well, here's where we Here's where we get into the emotion.
- 9:22Speaker 3: It's an incredibly emotional case. Yes, horrible crimes, families, small
- 9:29Speaker 3: community college campus, a public incensed with the rage and
- 9:33Speaker 3: violence of the crimes themselves.
- 9:34Speaker 2: I've got four kids.
- 9:36Speaker 3: We all this case resonates three and a half years
- 9:39Speaker 3: later because we feel it, We feel it in our
- 9:41Speaker 3: own lives. And then we come down to the one
- 9:44Speaker 3: question you just asked about the two witnesses and why
- 9:47Speaker 3: they didn't call police those hours. And I try to
- 9:49Speaker 3: differentiate between the emotion and the logical questions. And I
- 9:55Speaker 3: understand they were young women, they had been drinking, they
- 9:59Speaker 3: had their own motivations. I don't say anything about that.
- 10:02Speaker 3: What I say is what did and did not happen
- 10:05Speaker 3: on record? What does the body camera show, What does
- 10:08Speaker 3: the nine one one call show? What does the evidence show?
- 10:11Speaker 3: How does that comport with what we believe in lieu
- 10:15Speaker 3: of a trial when nobody ever gets to explain it.
- 10:18Speaker 2: That's what I want to do.
- 10:19Speaker 1: Oh my god, you brought up the bodycam exactly. You're
- 10:22Speaker 1: You're so spot on when it comes to that, because
- 10:25Speaker 1: that so many people have drawn their own conclusions without
- 10:28Speaker 1: even jumping into this book. And that's why they've got
- 10:30Speaker 1: If they're going to sit there and watch those bodycam videos,
- 10:32Speaker 1: they've got to come to this book and get a
- 10:34Speaker 1: better vision of what really happens here and stay out
- 10:37Speaker 1: of their imagination.
- 10:40Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't need to imagine. Listen, everybody has imagination.
- 10:43Speaker 3: That's why people talk about these things and have opinions.
- 10:46Speaker 3: I say, listen, don't listen, don't don't listen to anything.
- 10:50Speaker 3: I say, just listen to the nine to one one
- 10:53Speaker 3: call and just watch that first hour with officers Dounez
- 10:57Speaker 3: body camera. We he lays out everything report after and
- 11:00Speaker 3: you can see how these things change the body camera
- 11:03Speaker 3: shows one thing, the reports after the fact show another,
- 11:06Speaker 3: and I point out that's human. That's the nature of
- 11:09Speaker 3: a law enforcement investigation. It happens, it will always happen.
- 11:13Speaker 3: We have the magic gift in this case of that
- 11:16Speaker 3: first hour where we see things that we can put
- 11:19Speaker 3: in context later when we get the forensics back, when
- 11:23Speaker 3: we get the lab reports back, when we get the
- 11:25Speaker 3: prosecution narrative back, then we can use that as a reference.
- 11:29Speaker 2: You're so right.
- 11:30Speaker 3: We have a gift in this case looking at it forensically,
- 11:33Speaker 3: and that is video photographs what actually happened, not what's
- 11:39Speaker 3: translated through a report.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Please do not move. There's more with Christopher Witcomb coming
- 11:43Speaker 1: up next, Broken Plea, the experience. Oh it's now in
- 11:49Speaker 1: your hands. We are back with Christopher Witcomb. Aren't you
- 11:52Speaker 1: changing the game of true crime? Because it seems to
- 11:55Speaker 1: be that true crime is the hottest thing going now.
- 11:58Speaker 1: But what you're doing is is that you're reaching beyond
- 12:02Speaker 1: just the true crime. It's like you're going, Okay, I
- 12:04Speaker 1: see what's going on here, Let's go get the real story.
- 12:07Speaker 1: And that takes courage to be able to say that.
- 12:10Speaker 1: When you've got all of this stuff that's going on
- 12:11Speaker 1: around us, and here comes Christopher and I'm going I
- 12:14Speaker 1: got it. Well, I'm just gonna use evidence here. You
- 12:16Speaker 1: guys come up with your own conclusion.
- 12:19Speaker 3: Look, I really I appreciate that, because that really is
- 12:22Speaker 3: what I want to do at this stage in life. Look,
- 12:24Speaker 3: I've lived a pretty crazy life. We don't have to
- 12:27Speaker 3: go into it. But I've done a lot of different
- 12:28Speaker 3: things in life. And one thing I did not have
- 12:31Speaker 3: to do at this stage in life is write a
- 12:33Speaker 3: book that would cause this kind of frail.
- 12:36Speaker 2: That is one thing that I did not have to do.
- 12:39Speaker 3: But I look at it and say, all right, look,
- 12:41Speaker 3: if somebody has to take the has to be the
- 12:44Speaker 3: lightning rod for all that comes out of this, I
- 12:46Speaker 3: guess I'm strong enough to do that. But I'm doing
- 12:49Speaker 3: it at least from a position of experience. I worked
- 12:52Speaker 3: longer as an investigative journalist in life than I did
- 12:55Speaker 3: as an FBI agent. I did both, But you know
- 12:58Speaker 3: I've written. I've started ou as a news reporter. I
- 13:03Speaker 3: was an op ed writer at The New York Times,
- 13:06Speaker 3: staff writer at GQ Magazine. I had my own television
- 13:09Speaker 3: show on CNBC with Martha McCallum, who's now at Fox.
- 13:13Speaker 3: I've done this from both sides of this of a case,
- 13:17Speaker 3: and I look and say, is my opinion any more
- 13:20Speaker 3: than an opinion? Maybe not, But do I have the
- 13:22Speaker 3: experience to at least have a say in the matter
- 13:25Speaker 3: and in my opinion, yes, So I say, if that's
- 13:27Speaker 3: the case, can we do this together? Can we go
- 13:30Speaker 3: back to this evidence and generate a new way of
- 13:34Speaker 3: looking at true crime putting truth. Let's talk about the evidence,
- 13:40Speaker 3: which is the criminal justice program, not theories, conjecture, emotions.
- 13:45Speaker 2: I think this.
- 13:46Speaker 3: I think that let's look at the facts, let's look
- 13:48Speaker 3: at the evidence, and let's look more constructively moving forward,
- 13:53Speaker 3: at how we get involved in these cases.
- 13:56Speaker 1: You just described what every program director and consultant would
- 14:00Speaker 1: always try to convince us to do. Get it off
- 14:03Speaker 1: you and get it onto them. Go for a story
- 14:07Speaker 1: that's going to affect people, Because you're right, we could
- 14:09Speaker 1: sit there and concentrate and put all of our energy
- 14:12Speaker 1: into our investigation. No, you're giving it to us. It's
- 14:15Speaker 1: like you're the relinquishing of this book. Broken plea is
- 14:19Speaker 1: you're saying, here's the evidence. I did the work for you. Now,
- 14:23Speaker 1: now let's change the narrative here.
- 14:26Speaker 2: That's what I was hoping er, that's what I was
- 14:28Speaker 2: hoping for.
- 14:29Speaker 3: People get I do you know once this move past
- 14:31Speaker 3: the podcast crowd, Yeah, and I as well, well meaning people.
- 14:35Speaker 3: But my gosh, there are twenty thousand true crime podcasts
- 14:38Speaker 3: in the United States and they all have an opinion.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Right. Am I willing to engage, Yes, one hundred percent.
- 14:43Speaker 3: But I'm willing to engage if they read the book
- 14:45Speaker 3: and we're actually talking about the same case. And that's
- 14:48Speaker 3: not always the way it's played out. But I do
- 14:50Speaker 3: look and say, can we look at this now in
- 14:52Speaker 3: a meaningful way and generate the same discussions based on
- 14:56Speaker 3: new information? People don't know what they don't know, And
- 15:00Speaker 3: I think if I could get one thing moving forward
- 15:04Speaker 3: out of this time in my life, it is meaningful
- 15:07Speaker 3: conversation in a new way, looking at at the criminal
- 15:14Speaker 3: justice system, this case in particular.
- 15:16Speaker 1: In a very very creative way. Aren't you saying? I mean,
- 15:19Speaker 1: because this is what I got with the vibe on it.
- 15:22Speaker 1: It's almost like you're saying you don't need to go
- 15:24Speaker 1: up and talk with the people from Moscow anymore because
- 15:27Speaker 1: you now know the story. Don't turn this into a
- 15:30Speaker 1: tourist trap. There's nothing here for you. Let these people
- 15:33Speaker 1: finally find some peace. Here is the evidence, figure it.
- 15:36Speaker 2: Out, Yes, and there is nothing.
- 15:39Speaker 3: There is nothing in this book that suggests in any
- 15:42Speaker 3: way that anybody would go back to Moscow. The house
- 15:45Speaker 3: is torn down, the prosecutor's moved on, everybody's gone about
- 15:48Speaker 3: their lives. There's nothing left to find in Moscow or
- 15:52Speaker 3: with the families. And I, very intentionally in this book
- 15:56Speaker 3: did not reach out to anyone. I did not want
- 15:58Speaker 3: to their agony, and it is agony, and we can
- 16:01Speaker 3: all imagine it. I don't want to look and say,
- 16:04Speaker 3: what can we find out three and a half years
- 16:06Speaker 3: after the fact. In my opinion, the answer is nothing.
- 16:09Speaker 3: What can we find looking back at the evidence as
- 16:12Speaker 3: it was taken contemporaneans to the crimes three and a
- 16:15Speaker 3: half years ago, that's a different story. Let's look at
- 16:18Speaker 3: the evidence as it was recorded. There was nothing else
- 16:21Speaker 3: to dig up. It's already been done. We're not going
- 16:23Speaker 3: to find anything. We're not going to find a knife
- 16:26Speaker 3: in a ditch three and a half years after the fact. Yeah.
- 16:29Speaker 1: And the only reason why I bring this up is
- 16:30Speaker 1: because I did go to oj Simpson's house. I did
- 16:33Speaker 1: go to the site where Susan Smith killed her two sons. Yeah,
- 16:35Speaker 1: I did that, but I also felt unbelievably guilty of
- 16:40Speaker 1: being there. And that's what I love about your book
- 16:43Speaker 1: is that it's that you're giving me that opportunity to
- 16:45Speaker 1: go there without going there, if you know what I mean.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Yeah, I do.
- 16:49Speaker 3: And I got to say, you know, this is such
- 16:50Speaker 3: a great conversation just looking on my life and how
- 16:52Speaker 3: weird it is. While I was writing this, I flew
- 16:54Speaker 3: to la to do a show on a book that
- 16:57Speaker 3: I put out last year. Back I get on the
- 17:00Speaker 3: plane and I'm sitting next to this woman. It was
- 17:02Speaker 3: Marsha Clark. And I sat and talked to Marsha Clark
- 17:05Speaker 3: on the plane about this book and about what she
- 17:07Speaker 3: had done, which was a coincidence, And you brought up
- 17:10Speaker 3: the house. You're not gonna believe this, but I was
- 17:12Speaker 3: actually in almost went over in a car and ended
- 17:16Speaker 3: up in a fight outside Ojay's house on Rockingham, I
- 17:20Speaker 3: don't know, maybe ten years ago, and went to prison
- 17:23Speaker 3: as a victim in an assault with a deadly weapon
- 17:26Speaker 3: case where the guy went and did did time in prison.
- 17:29Speaker 2: So I've been involved.
- 17:31Speaker 3: I've been assaulted in a deadly use of dea worst case,
- 17:36Speaker 3: it all comes together. What I'm saying is my life experiences. I,
- 17:40Speaker 3: oddly enough, have had life experiences that give me a
- 17:43Speaker 3: perspective on different elements of this case.
- 17:45Speaker 2: I think, in my opinion, that helps.
- 17:48Speaker 1: Wow, Where can people go to find out more about you?
- 17:50Speaker 1: Because twenty minutes is not enough, Christopher, It just isn't
- 17:53Speaker 1: enough to spind with you because you've got, like you said,
- 17:55Speaker 1: you've got that whole entire I want a book about
- 17:57Speaker 1: you and everything that you've gone through because your style
- 18:01Speaker 1: of writing. I would love to take it from day
- 18:03Speaker 1: one all the way up to where you are right now. Oh,
- 18:05Speaker 1: to watch the evolution of that.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Well, it's odd you say that because I'm not pitching
- 18:09Speaker 3: other books because they're old. But in two thousand and
- 18:12Speaker 3: one I came out of the FBI. I wrote a
- 18:14Speaker 3: memoir called Cold Zero because I was on this counter
- 18:17Speaker 3: terrorism team, the hostage rescue team in the FBI. So
- 18:19Speaker 3: the first was a memoir called Cold Zero. Then last
- 18:22Speaker 3: August I released a book called Anonymous Mail with Random House,
- 18:26Speaker 3: which is a second memoir. So it's all out there.
- 18:29Speaker 3: I don't have many secrets. For better or word, people
- 18:32Speaker 3: use them for you know. It's not always good being
- 18:36Speaker 3: that public, but my life is quite public.
- 18:38Speaker 2: Wow.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Well you got to come back to this show anytime
- 18:40Speaker 1: in the future. The door is always going to be
- 18:41Speaker 1: open for you.
- 18:43Speaker 2: I love talking to Ero. I can't thank you enough.
- 18:46Speaker 1: Will you be brilliant today?
- 18:47Speaker 2: Okay, thank you man, thank you San
