You want to solve crimes? You want to not us.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
We have a lot of questions. We do those questions
leading to other questions. Right, maybe we should started solving
some crimes next year.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
If we have like a tip line, people call it
and give us some tips.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Yeah, I like that idea. Start a tip line. Okay,
and then you want to be like boots on the ground.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Well it's something.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah, you want to like get your investigative hat on,
and you want to go out and you want to
get the DNA and you want to test it. It's right,
all right, Okay, guys, you heard it here first Legally Brunette.
We're gonna take it to the.
Speaker 2 (00:57):

Speaker 1 (01:03):
What would you like to say to the fans out
there that have listened and supported legally Brunette. There's so
many of you, and thank you so much for listening.
You guys, I really appreciate.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Ever realize how much true crime was was a form
of entertainment. Oh yeah, And I don't mean entertainment like
in the fun way, but out of interest and following along.
I mean, we you and I always watch true crime stuff.
But it's such a huge genre.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
You know. I'll tell you. I would say my first
experience with true crime really was just when I was
a teenager and it was Menendez and I was glued
to the TV when the trials were on. I watched
them as like a sixteen year old and then a
nineteen year old or whatever it was. And that's when
it well because well they had two trials.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Oh you watched them both?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah, I mean not from what we're getting.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Fascinated by them because they were in Beverly Hills.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
I think. So, I think when you're when you were.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
So you're like watching nine O two one h yes,
one day the day you're watching the Menendez trials.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah, so I was pretty obsessed with that. And but
then you know when we when we got married in
two thousand and nine, Shane would always watch Forensic Files
and I had never watched Forensic files real or Yeah,
you were huge. You watch Forensic Files all the time.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Yeah, a ninja American ninja warrior. I binged.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
So then I started watching Forensic Files and then I
got hooked on it. And I love Forensic Files because
each episode is thirty minutes and they wrap it up.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It is like it's usually result.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Right, It's like the facts, here's the case, and there's
science to right, and it's like here's the DNA and
here's the results. And he was convicted and he went
to jail.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
For this lone and a lot of them are in Ohio,
A lot of people.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
They are my people. I don't know why this doesn't
If someone knows this, please let me know. But for
some reason, a lot of the Forensic Files cases takes
place in Ohio.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
I'm gonna guess because of the resources have access to
the DA.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
And probably so you're saying, may probab they just have
a good relationship house.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And as you film that, restaurants that are like filmable right,
like yeah, like we feel like and good light. Yeah,
exactly right right. So so ohio's crime friendly?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Oh it is? Yes. So we were thinking on to
expand legally Brunette a little bit by doing specific cases
that have to do with husbands who commit crimes against
wives and wives who commit crimes against husbands because we're
a husband wife duo, so we thought that would be
relata relatable that we could talk about. So I think
(03:35):
that's a goal for me, is to expand it and
to build you know on it, and to start.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Maybe some more of the romance kind of crime.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Of passion with husbands and wives.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yes, among matrimony.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Matrimony matrimony deaths. So I think that's where where we
go from matrimonial murders. Yeah. I like that. So what
are your plans for the New Year?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Uh? Do this podcast with you? No?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
But I mean New Year's Eve? What are your plans?
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Oh, Near's eve?
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Yeah? Do we have plans?
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Well, I'll probably put well, what are your plans? That's
what dictates my plans. Your plans? Are you going to
go to sleep? Probably you're not gonna stay untill to night.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
No, I never stay up till mid night.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
That's what may with kids, we can do the New
York time.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yeah, we do that with kids. I we'll watch the
ball drop and all that kind of stuff. Maybe we'll
invite some people over. I say that every year, and
we never do. Every year. I go to Shane and
I say, why don't we have a New Year's Eve
party and invite friends and they can bring their kids
and we'll just all hang out together. And then I
never actually do it. We tried a couple of years
when we first had kids. We tried to go out
(04:39):
and get a yeah, and get a babysitter, and that
never works because first of all, no one's ever available
on New Year's.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Eve, the pre arranged dinners and the prefix yeah, is
that what it is? Prefix?
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah? You don't like that?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
No, I don't know. I just it's no. I'd rather
just be at like a friend's house on Newyear's Eve.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah. So if we have friends that would like for
New Year's Eve, we'd be happy to come. But we
have to bring our children because we can't leave them
at home. So what about goals? People always have resolutions
for New Year's Do you have a resolution?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
No, it's not I don't set the bar very high.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
How about going to the gym?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
No, no, it's not it's not the cards. No, no, no,
should it be?
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Yes? It should. You're fifty, I feel like you need.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
To do something radio Yeah it should be, right, it
should be. But yeah, no, but it should be.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah. How about I set resolutions for you and you
set resolutions for me to follow.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
No, no, I'm not telling you what to do at all. No, no,
I'm not stupid like that. That's setting me up for
getting in trouble.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
All right, Well, give me a goal, something you want
to accomplish in twenty twenty six, Like one thing, Come on, Shane, seriously.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
No, I no, I'd like to take you on a
trip in the summer. Okay, so if we can get
the kids arranged, and then I'd like to also do
one family trip where it's like the family, all of
us go somewhere.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Okay. What about a personal goal?

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Isn't there I don't feel like a new year to
make me sit down and have goals for myself?
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Well, just anything you'd like to accomplish personally.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Well, I don't know if I want to say that
on this podcast.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Oh my gosh. Okay, No, it's.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Like it's like, okay, I have financial goals.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Okay, well that's good.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
You can just say that i'd like to I like
to be able to save a certain amount for a
rainy day. Okay, I'd like to be able to not
waste a bunch of money. Yeah, used to be.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
More directed towards me. In case you all didn't get that,
that was for me.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I know it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Yeah it was.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And uh, you know, we need to get our kids
in order.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah, I don't know how you do that.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Properly, sleep properly, and do their homework a goal of mine.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Okay. People say they need to get their ducks in order,
and we're like, no, we need to get our kids
in order.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Then I'll get some ducks. What are your goals?
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Well, because you make fun of me all the time,
So you guys, don't make no wait, let me finish this.
You make fun of me all the time. I'm like
your favorites language. Okay. So I'm turning fifty soon. You
are in January, Yes, January eighteenth. It's kind of freaking
me out, but I decided for myself. For my fiftieth birthday,
I booked this five day riding trip in Idaho where
(07:41):
you ride horses through like the Idaho terrain and five
plus hours a day, five plus hours a day, like
you are a real cowboy. No Wi Fi signals, no WiFi,
no you riding through like you're driving horses from point
A to point B. So I actually fly into Idaho
and then we go to a ranch, and then you
(08:01):
get a horse, and then you have you have to
pack up your clothes on your horse. That's it. And
you have to sleep in a tent at night. And
I'm going to ride a horse for five days, and
Shane keeps making fun of me. Yeah, I better, that's
for sure. But he keeps making fun of me because
he keeps saying that there's no way I'll be able
to make it through five days.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
I'm just being realistic. But I can, though, So I
think I think I think you can. I think you
need to warm up. You haven't been riding in a while.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
How do you warm up?
Speaker 2 (08:29):
What do you mean, I don't workout? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Then you need to buy me a horse. Is that
on the Christmas list? Okay, then I would like a horse.
Could you put it in the backyard?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:38):
So you bought this trip for your birthday from myself.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
And you scheduled it when it's.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Actually I picked the week that's during Shane's birthday.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So and then when I remind you it was my birthday,
said no, it's not, and they said, oh oops. So
that means it never even crossed your mind.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
That it was your birthday, right, not at the time.
But I do realize now looking back that I did.
I did book this trip to Idaho during your birthday.
So happy birthday? All right? Well, I guess Shane does
not any more goals and I just want to make
it through this riding trip. So that's where we're at
in the new year. We want to get ours want
(09:19):
to get.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Are going to be achieved? Yeah, everyone else is going
to fall flat and then do their goals because they
said them super high and they made all these things.
I say, we're realistic.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Oh you you just keep the bar really low.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
And then and then I'm an achiever.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
If you're an overachievers, how you.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Say an achiever? No, I just see their chief.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Oh, it's not overachiever, just a chiever. Yeah, okay, I
get it, all right, all right, Well, we wish you
all a happy new Year, and we hope that you
all reach your own goals, and we hope that they're
a little more lofty than Shane Simpson's, but that's okay. Whatever,
whatever your resolutions are, whatever your goals are, we hope
you reach them. So Happy New Year to all you guys,
(09:58):
and thank you so much for listening to Legally Brunette.
We appreciate it. Happy New Year, everybody.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
