Speaker 1 (00:00):
Your thoughts on how bad of a look this is
for the NBA. And oh, by the way, Adam Silver
has been subpoenaed by Congress to go on Capitol Hill
in front of that firing squad.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
So how bad of a look is this for.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
The NBA and what can they do to mitigate this
damage which looks like it's only just begun.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
It's really bad. It's not good for the NBA at all.
I think I think the player thing ma Terry Rozier
with you know, the unders leaving the game, I think
that's easily fixed because the sports books will catch that.
The one I really caught my eye out of this
is the Chauncey billups side of it, because a head
coach just has access to so much information that is

(00:48):
so vital like that people could use to jump ahead
of the market to gain edges, and the coaches really
doesn't have to do too much like he can. He's
just sharing what he knows is going to happen. I
think I think my biggest takeaway from this scandal was
that it was concerning me. You know, they're talking about
the integrity of the game and with Chouncey build ups
and how that might be affected. The integrity of the
game was like gone with the fact that they were tanking,

(01:10):
Like that's what created the betting edge that Chauncey was sharing.
So the fact that like teams tank in the league,
it's kind of acceptable to tank. Like he wasn't doing
anything out of the ordinary. He was just letting everyone
know heate, we're tanking, and like all the other coaches
or anyone else in the organization, you wouldn't be able
to pick up like any like poor substitution powers or
like notice that anything was different with what he was

(01:32):
doing because he was technically just following what the organization
wanted him to do, which is lose the game. So
I feel like that side of it is really bad
for the league because it's not even necessarily the gambling
side that room the integrity of the game. It's the tanking,
which then gave the edge to the betters that he
could share.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
So yeah, but they were playing it actually yeah, but
they were playing a garbage bulls team and he told
the Oh yeah, he told his constituents or whatever you
want to call them. His accomplish is that he was
sitting their.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Top four scores.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
So it's one thing that tank and then you tell me, hey,
we're and the Bulls come out and win by twenty
eight points. I mean and in a garbage Bulls team
at that.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Yeah, yeah, I think that's the problem. Was like, so
he fits those guys or like even like you know
in sports saying you're trying to project like minutes for
a game, Like even if you just drop a starter's
match from thirty five to thirty, that's creates an edge
that sports bears would be interested in. So the fact
that like he could do all that and nobody's really
questioning that he's doing it because probably the whole coaching
staff was on board with the tanking, and then he's

(02:35):
sharing that. I feel like that's a bad I feel
like the one thing the NBA needs to fix. I mean,
we all know the load management. We all hate it.
The injury report stuff and how it's being reported and
when it's reported. That's a huge issue for the league
because you think of like I'll just use an example
from Halloween. So like Jannis was set to play the
Bucks were two point under dog. He two hours before

(02:58):
the game, like no prior knowledge of it anything with
an injury. They say he's sitting. Well, now the spread
moves to like nine, he's like worth like seven points.
If you had that information before, yeah, you're in a.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Great Oh it's inside trading. It's inside trading, right, Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
It's it's not even the it's it's just it's also
when it's being reported. So I feel like the league
is trying to focus on stopping load management. Honestly, their
best solution might be, like you can sit the guys,
but you got to let us know, like three or
four days ahead of time before people buy tickets, or
so we can let people know before these lines get posted,
like let us know when the superstars are sitting, because
two hours before the game, if someone had that information,

(03:36):
that's huge information. And you know, a head coach obviously
knows like Giannis is in playing, and I think they
know that going into it. So I feel like that's
really something they have to clean up.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
John Mettler from Covers dot Com joining us here on
Mjane in the midday. I will give you a game
that absolutely killed me last year with the Knicks, and
I believe this was this was regular season game, and
I've been pretty good at handicapping them, and I I

(04:06):
gotta go back and look, I want to say it
was against the Clippers, and I didn't know at the time.
I placed the bet under the full presumption that Carl
Anthony Towns was playing.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Then the game goes on.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
I didn't get it that night and get to watch
the game because I didn't get defet and then I
find out after the game he didn't play because of
a situation with his significant other, his girlfriend. Well, I'm like, WTF, like,
give me my money back like that. That's bs okay.
It was Friday, March seventh.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
There, it was.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
No, I couldn't been it because he actually did play
that game. It was one game he did not play.
I got the ticket. I got screwed, and I will
never and I'm gonna next time I see Carl Anthony Towns,
I'm gonna hand him the ticket and say thanks for
costing me a grand because he screwed me if I
know he was playing that night, John, I'm not placing
one thousand dollars on the Knicks period.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Yeah, that's and that's that's what I'm saying. That's where
the issue is. It's when these injuries are being reported.
It's when like you're getting like an hour before the game,
you're like, oh, all of a sudden, downgrade to questionable
and all of a sudden, this guy's out, and like
there was no indication, Like they're on the second night
of back to back, they played the night before, you
watch the game, there's no injury, right, So it's just
all it's when it's being reported, and like if you're
going to be tied to legal sports thing, I feel

(05:28):
like that's something they really need to clean up. Like
you would never see the NFL where it's like a
guy practices all week and then they're like, oh Sunday,
Oh actually the quarterback sitting out. That would dramatically change
the line. So it's they really need to figure out
the injury report stuff. I know this has been brought
up Tad and Silver and he was talking about it.
He was also talking about I saw he was talking
about like the player props. We you're talking about Terro's year. Yeah,

(05:48):
maybe a limiting for like the bench players and keeping
it to the starters. I do fear that the easy
solution is to get rid of unders and make it
a one way market, and that would not be good
for betters all. But I can see where that's coming
from with Yonders. But we don't want that at all
because you don't want the sports to steal and make
it a one way market. So I feel like, keep
into the starters. I'm okay with that. I don't think

(06:10):
there's I don't really have an issue with that. But yeah,
there's a lot for the NBA to look at and
clean up with the gambling scandal.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
John Metler covers covers dot Com here, and like I
would tell you last week on my gambling show, picking
the locks, that I gave out the Bijon Robinson under
sixty one and a half rushing yards against the Patriots
and his third straight game he finished with under forty
three rushing yards. So like, yeah, you got to be able.

(06:36):
You can't just do a one way market like we're
only going to do over as well. No, that sucks.
I mean that, you know, only the only sport and
I get it, But like, here's my thing. How come
we don't see load management in baseball? How come we
don't see load management in hockey? Now? NFL is different
because there's only seventeen games and you play once a
week depending on whether or not you have a short

(06:57):
week on a Thursday night game like tonight between the Raids,
Raiders and Broncos. But why don't we see load management
in the NHL Baseball and in those sports. We don't
see it there, but we see it in the NBA.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Why is that?

Speaker 3 (07:11):
Yeah? And then they can't get rid of it, and
they can't. They haven't. They tried to adjust the rules
and they haven't been able to figure it out. The
thing that annoys me the most is that you'll get
like say like thunder calves and it's like, well the
Thunder a load managing, but the calves aren't. And then
the next and like it blows up like one game
because one side has starters, one doesn't, and then you
just ruin all these good matchups. Like you go back
to watch like some previous games or you're like see it,

(07:33):
like to learn something like I can't even learn anything
from this because none of the starters are playing. For
you know, we have ten games and five of them
have starters on one side aren't even playing. So the
load management thing. Then they just I remember reading report
this is a couple of years ago when they were
talking about how they could get rid of it, and
they said, just like the doctors and the sports science,
and they've just proven that the eight to two games

(07:54):
is too much, and how the schedule breakdowns with the
back to back and if they get to if they
do play all those games and they all those nats
and it gets the playoffs, they're gonna be in. They
have problem. So it's a tough, tough scenario for the
NBA because you just signed massive TV contract. You can't
be like, oh, we're dropping down to right, sixty games,
this works right, So they have a big problem. I honestly,

(08:15):
it's going to be really hard for them to solve it.
I feel like the easiest thing is just cleaning up
how the injury reports are handled, like just let everyone
know who's playing and not playing ahead of time, way
ahead of time.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
They have to no question and again, and I'm not
sure I'm the only gambler who's ever been screwed on
a player that they assumed was playing and did not play.
I'm not the only one. I mean, it's it happens
a lot. But I never forget that night and I
was feeling good. I felt like, hey man, I'm in
a good spot. And then all of a sudden, you know,
there we go and and it just basically killed me

(08:47):
and I and I was like, well there goes that
and I will never do that again, and and it
just sucks. What do you think in terms of I
found that you talk about John where Terry Rosier, you know,
let's got two and a half years ago he tells
you know, his associates or whatever that, Yeah, bet all
the unders on me. They go in place thirty bets

(09:12):
on a on a random you know, Terry Rosie or
under in March, all thirty unders hit, all thirty cover.
And it was like, could you guys have been less obvious?
I mean, if you're gonna rob a bank, are you
gonna leave your cell phone there? Are you gonna leave

(09:32):
your driver's license there? No, you're not. I mean these
guys probably could have been a little bit more. And
all thirty bets covered. I laughed my ass off when
I heard that.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Yeah, I was also laughing A clear understand that's a
clear understanding of like you see the player props on
the board and they look the same as a spread bet,
but they're they are not the same markets at all.
Like you're talking limits of maybe a couple hundred for
player props. So when you open an account or you
go into account, you're also trying to place ten thousand
on Terio Rozier. Under that's gonna get flagged pretty hard,

(10:04):
especially if you're an account that doesn't normally even bet
maybe one hundred dollars, or you just opened it and
you're coming in. Obviously they get all that data of
like the flood of money coming in, so on a
market where it's like probably like a couple hundred max,
it's going to be sent to the traders and once
the traders see it, they're like ten thousand tiro Rozier, like,
let's keep an eye on this. That's where I think
the builds thing is also more complex because he could

(10:26):
affect spread markets and that's where that's where you can
really get money down right, And that's by adjusting minutes
for players and like sharing who's in and who's out,
so the terriers your stuff. I feel like that gets
cleaned up easily by the NBA with the player props.
I feel like that's pretty straightforward them. It's the coach
angle of it to me is like that's way over
the top.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Yeah, and you mentioned about Terry Rozier and those all
those player props. But I mean, do you notice, though, too, John,
that like, even though sports gambling has been around and
there's been you know, isolated incidents in college it's about
point shaving with Boston College basketball and Arizona State basketball

(11:06):
way back in the day. But do you notice that
all of this Terry Rozier, Damon Jones, Chauncey Billups, this
has all happened after the NBA, Major League Baseball, the NFL,
and the NHL, OH FanDuel Official Sportsbook of the NBA,
OH Draftings, Official Sports Book of the NFL, oh BET

(11:30):
MGM Official Sportsbook.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Of Major League Baseball.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
None of this happened prior to these leagues getting in
bed and partnering with these sportsbooks.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Have you noticed that? So? How much do you think
that was an issue? Now? Where guys, no matter how much.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
You do these oh these seminars, don't bet. How can
you say don't bet when you go out to center
court at Madison Square Garden and you see FanDuel Official
Sportsbook the NBA. I mean, like you can tell someone
not to do something over and over and over again.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
But I mean, guys are competitive and.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
They like to gamble So how much do you think
now that that has taken a huge part about these
leagues partnering with these sportsbook that that is now all
happening in the wake of that.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Yeah, I think I think it's tough for the players
to like go on the court and see, like you said,
a Stan duel ad and you're you're thinking yourself, well,
everyone's making money off me, could I make money off me?

Speaker 2 (12:31):
And like it?

Speaker 3 (12:32):
You know, if I just leave the game with an injury,
that's a no big deal. Nobody will even notice. Like
I didn't do anything. It's not like I'm missing shots
or like I'm not playing like I did. I just
left the game, right, So that's that's where you're seeing
with Terry Rozier and John say Port, they took the
under route. Yeah, like I went back, actually the John
say Porter went I went back and watched that game
with I think he had I want to. I don't
know for sure. I think it's under one and a

(12:52):
half assists. And then he got one assist and then
that was kind of when he was like kind of
looking to come on the game because you're like one
more assists, like you could throw a past anyone want
to if they just pull it and make it like
that's an assist, right, so if you don't even have
to make a spectacular pass. You could see he was
kind of panting and like he wanted out of the game.
I think they I don't think they realized like the
checks and balances that would be in place by a
sportsbook to catch, and I think they just thought it

(13:14):
would be way easier than it was. And now, I mean,
as they make an example of a couple of these
players that Terry was your thing, but like it was
what he was like for two hundred thousand, like his salaries,
twenty six moves. Now, like what are you doing? I know,
it's just insane, It's just insane. And then and then
the funny part is you see today the breakup of
ESPN BET, and then you're like, oh, maybe they'll move away,

(13:34):
like with this game in scale, maybe they'll stay a wall.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Oh back up, Oh whoa, whoa? What happened with the
ESPN BET.

Speaker 3 (13:42):
ESPN BET, ESPN and BET and Penn National Gaming broke up?
So they're in ESPM BET is done December first wait.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Wait, wait a second, so there will not be any
ESPN BET of December first, so it'll be it's.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
Gonna switched to the Score, which is the Ontario version
that Pen National Gaming has. Oh, it's just gonna it's
just gonna flip over to the Score. It's starting December first,
and nothing's gonna If you have ESPN Bet, nothing changes.
All your bets will flip over to It's just gonna
look a little different. Yeah, but they broke up and
then you're like ESPN and maybe wants to move away
from the gambling space after what happened here with NBA scandal, right,

(14:16):
and then literally an hour hour later, they signed another
deal with another sportsbook, so for more money. So it's
just a money thing.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Right, Okay, so they did, so they are I thought
you meant for a second that ESPN Bet was completely done.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
At all, and it is done.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
It is done.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
No, but they just you said they just signed a
deal with a new sportsbook though.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
Yeah, there they signed with DraftKings is going to be
on ESPN.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Now, okay, okay, so DraftKings is got Okay, Wow, Well Penn.
Penn's not having good luck in the gambling space. They
already had a they already a losing venture with Barstool
now they had a losing partnership with it, and then
they gave Barstool after buying fifty one percent of the company.
Then they sell it back for a dollar to Dave Portnoy.
Then they then they get partnered up with ESPN. Now

(15:00):
that dissolved. What's up with Pen Gaming? Who's running that company?
Is it the president's CEO of Cracker Barrel?

Speaker 3 (15:07):
I think I think they. I think I saw the
report today. I think it was since November twenty twenty three.
I think that's when they launched this TIMBT. They've lost
seven hundred million is what I think was the number.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Who ESPN bet or Pen has Pen has lost seven
hundred million? Pen has Pen has lost? Yeah, so you know,
you know what it is. You know what it is, John,
ESPN Bet. Let's be real. It's a fail the whole thing.
It's not as much as Penn Gaming has made bad
decisions along the way, ESPN Bet.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Who is going?

Speaker 1 (15:35):
I don't know anybody, And I know a lot of
people in the gambling space and people at CIRCA in
Vegas and handicappers.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Who do you know you work for? Covers?

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Who do you know that says I'm gonna go to
ESPN bet and place a three team parlay tonight on
the Nuggets, the Kings, and the Raptors.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Who's doing that? Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
I think that was the report too, is that they
hope to grab bigger market share, and I think they
were like seventh or eighth behind all the big names
like FanDuel and stuff like that. They weren't even close.
So they never they never made the ground they thought
they would. So that was why the breakup happened. With
a ten year deal. I think it's been two years
and they broke up and they went away. They're not
going to be Yes, that won't exist anymore.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
I think since the legalization of sports saying, we've learned
that there's a there's a big difference between knowing sports
and knowing sports betting.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
As connected as as connected as they are, they're also
very different and it's two different things to talk about
it from a betting perspective and to talk about from
just a purely sports perspective yep. And I think they
had a hard time putting those two together. That you
got to it's it's more about the betting than the sport,
and you got to put that together. Well, don't think
they were able to do that.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Hey, John, I really like talking you man.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
I like the fact that we can be, you know, critical,
especially if things that suck like ESPN BET. Yeah, oh well,
hey truth ers.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
But you know what, you know what it's like. If
it looks like a duck, it quacks like a duck,
it must be a duck and it must suck. So
it is what it is. Man.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
I'll I'm just gonna say to everybody out there in
the gambling world, and I think John Metler from Covers
will agree with me. Don't get any of your picks
from ESPN BET or any of their shows. Would you
agree with me on that, John, I would agree with you,
all right, yeah, I would say so, yeah, that's just

(17:29):
don't do it because these people weren't working in the
gambling space prior to them doing gambling shows. And believe me,
the real ones know, they know John Mettler Covers dot Com.
He's a real one.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
John.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Always it was a good I was gonna say, always,
a pleasure to talk to you the first time, but.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
It won't be the last.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
And oh, by the way, to our audience, I got
my pick of the day coming up on my producer extraordinaire,
Christopher Kids got his factor of fiction. Why don't you
throw something out to the audience tonight if they want
to do a little NBA action. I know you've got
a lot of things that you give out on Twitter.
Any you like tonight for the audience out here in Seattle.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Yeah, it was just the one game. I was looking
at garyto Engineer's point, but it's already moved two points,
so I wouldn't maybe leave that one alone. I was
looking at jzubotch over two and a half assists just
like the offense should flow through him tonight with Leonard
and James Harden out, and you think he would get it,
just a ton of touches and the potentials this would
go up. So I think they tried to adjust for
his new role tonight, but I don't think they adjusted
quite good enough. So I feel like there's a still

(18:24):
an edge there on that price.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
You're saying zoobot over two and a half as sis. Yeah, Okay,
all right, there you go, man. I appreciate it. John
Mettler covers dot Com keeping it real, Thanks Sean. All right,
we know Christopher Kie keeps a real he's got Factor
fiction coming up next, and you have first take in PTI.
That's what you do. You're not you're not gambling, you're
not betting, you're not. I don't know anybody who has it.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
I like they have they have zero, Like they have
zero market share in the gambling space. Zero, and it's showing.
And like John said, they're seventh or eighth right now,
seventh or eighth in that world. Kid, You feeling good?
Feeling pretty good?

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Man.

Speaker 4 (19:07):
I'm off to a better start now the past two weeks,
so hopefully I can keep it rolling.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
But I felt that way to start the year. But yeah,
for whatever reason, Yeah, I just I was unlucky. But
now the luckas is falling my way and I'm excited
to give you all this picking about a minute here, all.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Right, here we go.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
I was just gonna say this, and a lot of
people are texting this on the text line. Yes, Eric
Spolstrow went through a nasty divorce with his ex wife,
and yes I know that she has some issues and
people are speculating do you think she had anything to
do with it? I'm not going to go there, but
I will say this if it's proven that she does

(19:44):
have something to do with it, I wouldn't be the
least surprised. How does your home burn down at four
thirty in the morning with no shortage of a I
don't know, like a toaster oven catching on fire in
the morning. How does that happen? How does that happen?
So I'm not saying she's anything to do with it,

(20:06):
but I wouldn't be surprised or the least bit shocked
if she did. I'll leave it at that. So hell
hath no fury like an ex wife scorned. That's why
I've never been married. All right, now it is time
for fact or fiction?

Speaker 2 (20:22):
Where's that to go?

Speaker 5 (20:23):
Glad you're with us, it's your shot at our weekly
thousand bucks and the ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's
Factor fiction, probably presented by Lucky Eagle Casino and hotel
where every day feels Lucky. Fact door fiction is on
Sports Radio ninety three point three kjr FM.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
Alrighty, then you hear my music. That means one thing.
I'm going with the NFL. So with that being said,
give me a home favorite. I will take the Los
Angeles Chargers minus two and a half versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.
If you agree, you're gonna text in fact the four nine.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Four or five one.

Speaker 4 (21:06):
If you disagree, you're gonna text in fixing the four nine,
four or five one.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Again.

Speaker 4 (21:12):
The pick is in Chargers Los Angeles, Chargers minus two
and a half at home versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. I
think that's gonna be a guarantee.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Dare I say so?

Speaker 4 (21:26):
There it is Chargers minus two and a half versus
the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are traveling.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
On the road to the West coast.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
By the way, it's a nice little flight for them.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
But I like the Chargers.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
And by the way, you know what I'm surprised about,
but that line should be higher.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
I think you're getting a steal.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
I think you're making a great pick, and it's actually
a pick that I actually personally might bet on this weekend.
I think, why is that's the only thing that concerns me?
Why is it only two and a half?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
To me? Kid, it should be three and a half
or four? It might have started that way. And then
I don't let me look. I'll look. But yeah, I
love the pick. I love the pick.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
Give it again, Los Angeles Chargers minus two and a
half at home versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
There's your pick.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
Fact to four nine four or five one if you agree,
and or fiction if you are still fading me.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
I understand, But there it is. Oh look at that.
Let me see here, Chargers, Chargers, Chargers, let's go here movements.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Did it start at three or four or no? Actually
started at what I said. Goes to show you could
be an odds maker in Vegas. Its started at minus
four and a half and it's all the way down
to two and a half. There's a lot of money
on the Steelers. Well, that's also gives me pause. But
I like I still like the pick. The Chargers are
a better team. Now here's the thing, though, Where did

(22:51):
you say the game is at Los Angeles?

Speaker 5 (22:54):
No?

Speaker 2 (22:54):
No, no, no, It's at Heinsfield West.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
The Steelers fans they are going to be outnumbered. They
get out The Rams, who actually won a Super Bowl
in that stadium four years ago, get out numbered the
Chargers have That will be hines Field West on Sunday.
That's a home game for the Steelers. Every game, every
team that goes on the road and plays against the

(23:17):
Chargers is a home game for the other team. So
I but nonetheless, I think the Chargers are better. I
don't like the Steelers defense. I think the Steelers defense
other than the last weekend because every squirrel finds a
blind squirrel finds an eight corn every now and then.
They had they stood up last weekend and they took

(23:37):
care of the Colts. Other than that all season long.
Remember the second game of the year against the Seahawks.
Dear defense. How about DK metcalf last weekend? Two catches
for six yards. How's that working out? How's that working out? Yeah?
You know, it's just I like to I'm with you.
I think it's a great pick. I really do. So
there it is again.

Speaker 4 (23:55):
If you're just tuning in, the pick is Los Angeles
Chargers minus two and a half allegedly at home versus
the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
So go ahead and text in.

Speaker 4 (24:07):
Four nine four or five to one fact if you
agree or fiction if you disagree, Los Angeles Chargers minus
two and a half points.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
All right, there it is.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
And I've got the MJ Pick of the day coming up,
so I will do that. I can tell you I
don't have a research staff. I don't have peop. You know, producer,

William Phelps reopens the file — uncovering new witnesses, hidden evidence, and a shocking web of deaths that may all be connected. Over nine gripping episodes, Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders unravels a story 42 years in the making… and asks the question: who’s really been hiding the truth?
