On January 13th, 2014, 71-year old Curtis Reeves went to see a matinee showing of Lone Survivor with his wife of 47 years, Vivian. Curtis and Vivian arrived at the Grove theater, located in Wesley Chapel, Florida, and snagged prime seats in the back row of the theater.

The lights dimmed, and the previews started. Curtis couldn't enjoy them, though, because of the bright light shining in his face. The light was coming from the cell phone of Chad Oulson, a 43-year old man sitting in the row in front of Curtis.

Curtis asked the man to turn his cell phone off.

The man didn't. 

15 minutes later, Chad Oulson would be dead.

In this episode, we discuss the most controversial question in this case: was Chad Oulson shot over popcorn?

I break down the prosecution and defense arguments to give you a full picture of this case.

In this episode, we also discuss medical findings presented during the trial. In particular, we discuss stippling patterns (gun powder residue found on victims who are shot at close range) found on Chad and Nicole Oulson.

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
