• 0:27
  Speaker 1: I Matt Lock's an attorney. Yeah. I was trying to
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: think of there's a really old show called murder. She wrote,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: what was her name, Jessica Lang, Jessica Lang. Look it up, kids,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: we're Jessica Fletcher. Oh Jessica. Wait, who's Jessica Lang. Jessica
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: was an actress. She was in among Wow. You can't

  Speaker 1: expect to the gout. One of the names you can't
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: exp Angela Lansberry's who I'm thinking. I'm not even Jessica.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Look the show the Wheel. There's two wheels on a okay.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: But the point is I never listened to your true
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: crime and be like I'm gonna go solve it. Now,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: you're telling me that some La moms you had, some
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: time after their kids went to school, decided to pick
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: a cold case and they solved it.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Yes, these moms had kids that are kind of getting older,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: and they're kind of in that stage of their life
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: where they have a little bit extra more free time.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Maybe the kids are now driving, so they're not like
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: driving them so much, and they decided during the pandemic
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: to bond over their love for true crime. I saw
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: this whole article in the La Times about this book
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: and these moms, and they just started looking into this
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: this old case from like fifteen years ago, and it
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: was a cold case, just out of curiosity. They had
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: no law enforcement backgrounds. These four moms are just regular
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: moms working different jobs, different careers, and they tracked down records,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: they followed leads, they would communicate, you know, in between
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: carpols and things, just like be like, what did you find?
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: What did you find? And ultimately they ended up solving
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: this fifteen year old case, which I just think is
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: so remarkable for them to completely now shift their careers
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: and this is like what they're doing. The book's called
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: The Carpool detectives if you want to check it out.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: But the whole thing was just a really interesting second act.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Are they doing pro bono or are they getting fees
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: from something?
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: Because these are the questions, and I feel like we
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: need to like I want to have them on, like
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: if these are LA moms, like, come on.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: And we need to talk to you. Anything to be
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: scared of.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: That's the thing, right when you start digging into some
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: of these cases. What if there's relatives of said murderer
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: who knows? Like, yeah, I don't know. I would be
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: scared to be connected to anything like that.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Look, I can't listen to true crime anyway. I can't
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: even you sisty friends of mine, they love it before
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I love.

  Speaker 2: The true like run Away on Netflix's kind of true crime.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: It's not true true crime, fictional thing, but it's it's
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: a mystery. It's like who who did it? If it's
