00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Welcome to Sins and Survivors, a Las Vegas True Crime podcast.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:05,000
I'm your host, Sean.

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,000
And I'm your co-host, John.

4
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,000
Join us each week as we delve into the underbelly of this vibrant city,

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,000
exploring its most unsettling true crime stories where the stakes are high

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
and the truth is often darker than fiction.

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
But this podcast goes beyond the crime scene tape.

8
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,000
We unravel the intricacies of domestic violence,

9
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,000
exposing the raw and haunting realities that echo through the city's streets.

10
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Sins and Survivors is available now wherever you get your podcasts,

11
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:50,000
because in this city of illusions, the truth is the darkest bed of all.

12
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Hello!

13
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Hello.

14
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,000
Welcome back to another episode of Diagnosing a Killer.

15
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,000
I'm Ka'well.

16
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,000
And I'm Kenna.

17
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,000
And we both have our voices back.

18
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Barely. Barely.

19
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:25,000
What you just heard was a trailer for Friends of Ours, John and Sean's podcast,

20
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,000
Sins and Survivors.

21
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:31,000
They are two people out of Las Vegas that we met at the con last year,

22
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000
and they have since started their own podcast.

23
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,000
And I was fortunate enough to be a guest on their podcast recently,

24
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,000
and so we decided why not promote their podcast, because it's really great.

25
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,000
They focus on domestic violence, I'm sure, as you heard in their trailer.

26
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000
And out of Vegas, I think their tagline is,

27
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,000
What Happens Here Happens Everywhere, which is really cool.

28
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,000
I love that.

29
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,000
I love that line.

30
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,000
It's just, and it does give you kind of full body heat,

31
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000
because it does happen everywhere.

32
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
It should be talked about and recognized.

33
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
So they're doing the work for sure.

34
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Absolutely.

35
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,000
Thank you again, John and Sean, for having me on,

36
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,000
and go check them out anywhere you can get podcasts.

37
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,000
They are available there.

38
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,000
Yes.

39
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,000
So, it's been a month since we sat here.

40
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Ew.

41
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Okay, well, it's gonna happen.

42
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,000
I sound fine right now, but it's gonna get to me, because, yeah,

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,000
we both lost our voices, so, gosh, okay.

44
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000
Left for the trip, we went to New York, Cliff and I.

45
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Went to New York to go meet his lovely father, who is just,

46
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Ugh, he's a dream.

47
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,000
I love him.

48
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,000
And we were up there, and it was like day three.

49
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,000
I was dead to the world.

50
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,000
I got so sick, and from, I don't even know from where or when.

51
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,000
And by Wednesday, we left on like Sunday.

52
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,000
By Wednesday, I could not talk.

53
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,000
It was just at a whisper.

54
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,000
But I was in New York, and I'm in the upstate New York,

55
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,000
and it's so beautiful, and I wanted to see where he grew up.

56
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,000
And so, I definitely overextended myself going around,

57
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000
and not only that, but it's like freezing.

58
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000
I mean, it's not really freezing when we went,

59
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,000
but it was really cold.

60
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,000
There was snow everywhere.

61
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,000
My nose is constantly running, but I feel like I forced myself

62
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
because I wanted to see everything before we left.

63
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Of course.

64
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,000
And then I get back, and you get sick.

65
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Not immediately, though.

66
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,000
We definitely got sick at different times.

67
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,000
We did.

68
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,000
So, you had been back for a week, but that whole week,

69
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000
I had had a sinus infection.

70
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,000
I get sinus infections all the time.

71
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Very common, very used to them.

72
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,000
But the sinus infection somehow got worse,

73
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,000
and it turned into the flu.

74
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,000
So, two weeks after you got back, I got diagnosed with the flu.

75
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,000
No, it wasn't even.

76
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,000
It was like two, three days.

77
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000
And I knew that's why I knew it wasn't for me,

78
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,000
because you went to the doctor on what, Monday or Tuesday,

79
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,000
and we had gotten back on Sunday or Saturday.

80
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Either way.

81
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,000
Either way.

82
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000
And then I was like, I'm sick because I have a lot of things to do.

83
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000
I have a lot of things to do, but I was like, well, shit.

84
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Now that you're feeling better,

85
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000
I don't want to sit in a small closet with you and get you more sick.

86
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,000
Exactly.

87
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Well, then a week goes by, I'm still sick,

88
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,000
and I'm like, what the heck?

89
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,000
So I go to the ER.

90
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,000
And I'm like, can you help me?

91
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000
And I'm like negative for COVID,

92
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
negative for everything else.

93
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000
But my chest was heavy.

94
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,000
I couldn't breathe.

95
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000
And then I lost my voice completely.

96
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000
So, obviously, the infection traveled to my larynx.

97
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Sean and John, my voice is very, very bad.

98
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,000
It's not as bad now, but it's still there.

99
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,000
You can hear it.

100
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000
So, now I just have to bear with us,

101
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,000
because we could not stand to not bring you more content.

102
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000
We had to do it.

103
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000
It's been plaguing our minds.

104
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,000
Yeah.

105
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,000
And then after that, Cliff got sick.

106
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
It just, everybody got sick.

107
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000
I mean, I was on the San Antonio Reddit and people were like,

108
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000
is everybody else around me sick?

109
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,000
Yeah, no, there's definitely something going around.

110
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000
And at the end of the day,

111
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000
we need to make sure we're taking care of ourselves,

112
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000
and also, I would not have been able to record last week.

113
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Like, you wouldn't have been able to hear what I'm saying.

114
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,000
It's true.

115
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,000
So, we really needed to wait,

116
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,000
but we really appreciate you guys just being super open

117
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,000
and thoughtful and commenting and giving us your love.

118
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
That was really nice to not have to worry

119
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,000
that you guys were worried,

120
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,000
and you guys have been very gracious.

121
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
So, we appreciate it.

122
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,000
I think at one point, I even thought,

123
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,000
should we just type out a case for people to read?

124
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Just a transcript?

125
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000
We can't sit here for an hour

126
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000
talking about something when we don't have voices.

127
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
It would just annoy the piss out of everyone.

128
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Oh, for sure.

129
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000
Including myself.

130
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,000
We're gonna take it easy today.

131
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,000
Well, I will, because it's not my case.

132
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,000
It's your mental breakdown.

133
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000
So, hopefully, we'll get through this one.

134
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Just bear with us for the next couple of episodes.

135
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
They're probably gonna be kind of raspy,

136
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,000
but we'll get back to 100% as soon as we can.

137
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
I would like to thank everyone that purchased

138
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,000
an upcycled garment from us as of late.

139
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,000
That is something that Ken and I are trying to be aware of.

140
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,000
More environmental, environmentally-conscious.

141
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,000
So, I think upcycled shirts was really the way to go for us.

142
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Upcycled hoodies.

143
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,000
I'm gonna try to look around for some upcycled bags.

144
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,000
I think bags would be cute.

145
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,000
But yes, those are at a discounted rate.

146
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,000
And then, if you come see us in July and Denver,

147
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
they're at even more of a discounted rate.

148
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Yes.

149
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,000
So, yeah, absolutely.

150
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,000
Check those out.

151
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,000
We have those on our Instagram posts.

152
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Yeah.

153
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Yeah, thanks for everyone that's purchased one of those.

154
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,000
And they are 100% unique.

155
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,000
So, every single style, every brand, every design

156
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,000
is all 100% unique.

157
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,000
There is not gonna be more than one of the exact same of those,

158
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,000
as opposed to our new merch that we buy.

159
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000
They're all, they can be similar, you know,

160
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000
and there's multiple forms of the same.

161
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,000
But yeah, thank you guys for continuing to support us that way.

162
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,000
I got some good feedback from LouisDAKLive episode.

163
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,000
Everybody really appreciated the fact that he opened up,

164
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,000
and it can be a difficult topic to talk about.

165
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,000
So, thank you again, Louis, for being here for that DAK Live.

166
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:56,000
If you haven't checked it out, it is about ODD and ADD and ADHD

167
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,000
and the difference between the three.

168
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,000
So, it's a very interesting case.

169
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,000
But yeah, I've gotten a lot of really good feedback from that episode with Louis.

170
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000
Absolutely.

171
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:10,000
So, today, we are gonna be talking about seasonal depression.

172
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Okay.

173
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,000
Or what is also known as seasonal affective disorder.

174
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Oh.

175
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,000
Sad.

176
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,000
Sad.

177
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Okay, well, Watertown was the inspiration.

178
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Because it was, even during the day, the sun was like hazy.

179
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,000
And it's not that it's not sunny.

180
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,000
And it's not like it looks like it's gonna rain.

181
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,000
It's just the time of year.

182
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Yeah.

183
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,000
It's bizarre to be.

184
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,000
It's like, I even asked Cliff, I'm so dumb.

185
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,000
I'm like, could I see the Aurora Borealis from here?

186
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,000
He's like, probably.

187
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:50,000
But it just was so hazy that I was like, man, seasonal depression must be a thing.

188
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Yeah, absolutely.

189
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,000
I'm going to Seattle in a couple of months and I'm like, it's probably gonna rain the

190
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,000
whole time and it rains there all the time, you know.

191
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,000
So, we'll see.

192
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,000
Content warning, this episode contains talk of depressive symptoms and disorders.

193
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000
If this episode is not for you, we encourage you to check out another one of our episodes.

194
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,000
Remember that your mental health is important to us and we love you.

195
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Love you.

196
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,000
Love you.

197
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Bye.

198
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Oh my God.

199
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,000
Can't do the high pitch right now.

200
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,000
I forgot.

201
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,000
Love you, bye.

202
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Love you, bye.

203
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Seasonal depression is also known as seasonal affective disorder.

204
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:33,000
In according to John Hopkins website, Hopkinsmedicine.org, SAD, yes, the acronym is sad.

205
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,000
Yeah, it's also sad earlier.

206
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,000
Sad.

207
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Quote, happens during certain seasons of the year, but most often fall or winter end quote.

208
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:47,000
The symptoms of SAD usually occur around the same time every year and also end around the

209
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,000
same time every year.

210
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:56,000
It is possible to have SAD during the spring or summer months, but this is statistically less likely.

211
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,000
SAD occurs more often in assigned females at birth and is rare for people under the age

212
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,000
of 20 to experience SAD.

213
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Although early onset of SAD can start by 18 and the latest kind of onset of that would

214
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,000
stretch all the way into your 30s.

215
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:18,000
So, it's possible to show those signs or onset in between those ages.

216
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:24,000
SAD affects approximately 5% of people in the US or 16 million people.

217
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Dang.

218
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Another 10% or 33 million people may experience the winter blues.

219
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,000
Yeah, I feel like that's me.

220
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,000
Oh, same.

221
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:39,000
According to the American Psychiatric Association, SAD's symptoms include feeling sad or having

222
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:46,000
depressive moods, loss of interest or pleasure in activities once enjoyed, changes in appetite

223
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:53,000
or usually eating more or craving carbohydrates, changes in sleep, usually sleeping in too much,

224
00:09:53,000 --> 00:10:00,000
loss of energy or increased fatigue despite increased sleep hours, increased in purpose-less

225
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000
physical activity.

226
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:09,000
And this would be an example like an inability to sit still or pacing or writing or maybe

227
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,000
in your case, coloring.

228
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Yes.

229
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,000
Yes.

230
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:18,000
And then, the symptoms and speech, these actions must be severe enough to be observable by another

231
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,000
person.

232
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Okay.

233
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,000
So, it's not just like a common, you're just like, man, you have a burst of energy or man,

234
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:29,000
you just can't stop being able to, you know, fidget.

235
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:34,000
Feeling worthless or guilty, difficulty thinking, concentrating or making decisions and thoughts

236
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,000
of death or suicide.

237
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Although these symptoms are similar or even identical to depressive disorders, the difference

238
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:45,000
between winter and summer depression is that during winter depression, you may eat more,

239
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,000
sleep more and withdraw from social situations.

240
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,000
And in summer depression, you may eat less, sleep less and become more irritable easily.

241
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,000
That's interesting.

242
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,000
Again, these symptoms must be noticeable changes in your sleep and eating patterns in order

243
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,000
to be considered as a part of seasonal depression symptoms.

244
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:08,000
The Cleveland Clinic says that you may be at higher risk of developing SAD if you have

245
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:14,000
another mood disorder such as a major depressive disorder or bipolar disorder, have relatives

246
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:19,000
with SAD or other forms of depression or mental health conditions such as major depression

247
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:26,000
or schizophrenia, live at a latitude far north or far south from the equator, there's less

248
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,000
sunlight during the winter in these latitudes, and you might live in cloudy regions.

249
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,000
Yeah, it's like, yeah.

250
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:39,000
The causes of SAD, seasonal depression or winter blues is not conclusively known.

251
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,000
However, it is believed that changes in your circadian rhythm may be a contributing factor.

252
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,000
When the winter nights last so long and the days are shorter, our bodies have difficulty

253
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000
adjusting to that time change, essentially.

254
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Music

255
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:01,000
Born and brewed in Southern California since 1963, the coffee bean and tea leaf has always

256
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:06,000
been passionate about connecting loyal customers with carefully handcrafted products.

257
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:11,000
Their coffee master, J.I. Zaeus, only selects the top 1% of Arabica beans from the world's

258
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:16,000
best growing regions, giving customers the best quality product every time.

259
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,000
Whether you're looking for a dark roast to liven up your day or a soothing tea to relax

260
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,000
into the night, the coffee bean and tea leaf has it all.

Music

263
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,000
The opposite being for summer, when you're more likely to stay awake longer since the

264
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,000
days are longer.

265
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,000
Scientists also recognize that the natural melatonin that your body creates during night

266
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,000
hours are likely to be produced during these longer night periods.

267
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:52,000
Serotonin levels also may drop when we're not exposed to sunlight for some time.

268
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:58,000
Vitamin D deficiency, excuse me, is common with people diagnosed with wintertime SAD.

269
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,000
An overall expectation of what the seasons hold may also contribute to the stress and

270
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,000
anxiety experienced by SAD patients.

271
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Like they're dreading the season coming.

272
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Or it's like, you know, I know that a lot of people that get diagnosed with this might

273
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000
have problems with their immediate family or family that they see over the holidays.

274
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,000
So that can be stressful.

275
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,000
It'd be like, oh my gosh, my whole family in the same room is going to be so stressful.

276
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,000
And then it can induce symptoms of that.

277
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,000
Right.

278
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,000
Or like having to figure out what you're doing with your kid during summer when they're

279
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,000
not in school and it's an added stressor because you still have to work full time.

280
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Yeah, exactly.

281
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,000
As we see, SAD or seasonal depression isn't a joke.

282
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,000
It is often one of those things that can be tossed around in casual conversations.

283
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,000
But if you are someone you know are experiencing these symptoms, it may be time to seek help.

284
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Treatment for SAD or seasonal depression can include cognitive behavioral therapy,

285
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:54,000
medication, spending more time outdoors or with loved ones during daylight hours, mind you.

286
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Vitamin D supplements and even light therapy.

287
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:02,000
Light therapy has been used since the 80s to help with seasonal depression disorders.

288
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,000
There are some conditions in which you should not use light therapy, so talk with your doctor

289
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,000
about treatment options.

290
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,000
If you are okay to for light therapy, usually the morning time has shown better treatment

291
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,000
results.

292
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,000
That makes sense.

293
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,000
I guess so, right?

294
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Because it like prepares you for your day.

295
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Yeah, and then you don't have all that melatonin that's been like building up.

296
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,000
That's so true.

297
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,000
You know, because you just scared it off.

298
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,000
Yeah.

299
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:27,000
You scare off your melatonin with your serotonin and you're ready to go.

300
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:31,000
UV lights for light therapy use about 10,000 lux.

301
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Not to be confused with lumen because lumen is what, isn't that so funny?

302
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,000
Lumen?

303
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Lumenol.

304
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,000
Like, well Dexter.

305
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,000
Yeah, lumen.

306
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Lumenol.

307
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,000
He's like, no relation.

308
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,000
That's cute.

309
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:47,000
Yeah, so lumen is what the bulb, like the power it contains, but lux is what it projects

310
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,000
onto a surface.

311
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Okay.

312
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,000
That makes sense.

313
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:56,000
So, 10,000 lux is what these UV lights usually produce or yeah, create.

314
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,000
A common light bulb is only a thousand.

315
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,000
So, it's 10 times the power of a regular light bulb.

316
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,000
I'm gonna blind you.

317
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,000
Yeah, you have to wear goggles.

318
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,000
I bet.

319
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:10,640
Well, when my son was born, he had that ruby bellen count was low or something.

320
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:16,000
So essentially, he didn't have, he needed UV therapy to create more red blood cells.

321
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,000
Yeah.

322
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,600
So, he was in a little like baby, like tanning bed.

323
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,000
Yeah, he's like a little incubator.

324
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,000
And he had to wear these little goggles.

325
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Tanning bed.

326
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,000
It was an infant.

327
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,000
It's terrible.

328
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
It's like a two-day old and he was wearing goggles.

329
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,000
Oh, that poor child.

330
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:38,000
A doctor may recommend sitting in this light anywhere between 10 minutes to 45 minutes

331
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,000
per day over the course of the treatment.

332
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,000
So, I know what I just said, but tanning beds are not a viable replacement for light therapy.

333
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:46,920
Yeah.

334
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,600
So, anything if you do that every day for the suggested amount of time, you'd probably

335
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:51,600
develop skate cancer.

336
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,600
Yeah, absolutely.

337
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,600
So, don't do that.

338
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:59,000
A healthy diet and exercise routine is always a good idea to help with sleep and wake patterns.

339
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,400
Again, this is not as diagnosing or caring.

340
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:06,400
This is more about what you might be expecting if you were to go through something like this.

341
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:07,920
Yeah, no, absolutely.

342
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:13,720
It's definitely helpful to just know about things like this because I kind of talked about

343
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,400
this on the episode I did with Sean and John.

344
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,200
You know, the more you educate yourself on something, the easier it is to manage that

345
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,120
if it does happen and hopefully it doesn't, but if you do recognize signs and symptoms

346
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:30,560
of that in yourself or in someone else, then it might be beneficial just to have that extra

347
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:31,560
knowledge about it.

348
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:32,560
Yeah, for sure.

349
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:37,000
I definitely think that I get into modes where I get so comfortable.

350
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,040
I don't know if it's necessarily comfortable in my bed or if I just don't want to leave

351
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,400
my bed, especially with the curtains closed.

352
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:44,400
Yeah.

353
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,600
I'm like, it cliffhates it too.

354
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,600
I'll be like, do you want me to open the curtains?

355
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:49,600
He's like, yes, please.

356
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:50,600
Victorian child.

357
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,160
Please, I need the light.

358
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:59,320
But it is very much, you know, another great suggestion was when you do your chores, make

359
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,480
sure that your windows are open, like your blinds are open.

360
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,200
So at least you're inviting some sun in.

361
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,320
So it's not really, yeah, even if it's not really necessarily a sunny day, you know,

362
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:13,240
if you're walking around the house doing chores or if you need to type up a resume or you need

363
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,520
to whatever, make sure that your laptop or your computer is next to a window.

364
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,760
So you have access to that even if you're not, you know, in the most social mood.

365
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:22,760
Yeah, for sure.

366
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:27,200
I find even doing like the little things for yourself makes me feel specifically like so

367
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:33,000
much better, you know, getting up and taking a shower like can be so taxing sometimes.

368
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,760
But I feel so much better after I do it.

369
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:38,040
I'm like, oh, I'm clean, you know, and I don't have to worry about it or my coloring.

370
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,920
I've been really into coloring lately.

371
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,880
As soon as I got sick, I ordered three coloring books on Amazon and all these markers because

372
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,160
I was like, first of all, the craft weirdo, like I like all the stuff crafting and I have

373
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,160
to have like a variety.

374
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,600
She has these felt markers that are like silk.

375
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:53,600
It's crazy.

376
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,600
They're amazing.

377
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,120
But I knew I was going to be stuck in bed and stuck in my room for a while.

378
00:17:57,120 --> 00:17:58,160
And so I ordered that.

379
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,400
And now that I'm gooding through the sickness and I have less free time, I'm still using

380
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,080
the little free time I have to continue coloring because mom made a good point.

381
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,400
She's like, it uses a different part of your brain because it's the creative part and that

382
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,000
can, it's been actually really helping my anxiety.

383
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,000
Yeah.

384
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,000
I'm kind of the opposite.

385
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,760
It's like, well, I don't know if it quiets that same part of your brain that coloring

386
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,840
quiets, but that's me with trials and true crime.

387
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,960
If I'm constantly, if I have it, even if I have it in my headset and I have it turned

388
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,160
almost all the way down, it's like, it quiets the voices.

389
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:31,160
That's so terrible.

390
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:32,160
It quiets the voices.

391
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,320
But I don't mean that in a bad way.

392
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:41,520
Yeah, it quiets all of that anxiety that loops through my brain and it gives it linear purpose.

393
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,000
No, for sure.

394
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,040
And it's definitely not going to be the same for everybody.

395
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,760
Like that might work for you, but for someone else, like maybe even me, like getting all

396
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,120
of that true crime content constantly would be overwhelming for me.

397
00:18:53,120 --> 00:18:57,040
Like I would get more anxious, like constantly getting that feedback.

398
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:01,920
Literally in the Alec Murdov murders right now and I'm at the medical examiners parts

399
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,360
and I'm learning a lot.

400
00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:08,840
The medical examiner was like, this is a beautiful example of, I'm sorry, no, not beautiful.

401
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:09,840
Not beautiful.

402
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,760
I'm so sorry, forensically speaking.

403
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:13,760
Laughed.

404
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:19,080
He, it was, and again, this isn't to be crude or crass, but the medical examiner was talking

405
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:25,200
about Maggie Murdov's autopsy, essentially.

406
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,280
And you know, of course they had crime scene photos.

407
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,920
They don't broadcast any of that stuff, so you just see the prosecutor or the medical

408
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:38,240
examiner describing the photos, not necessarily showing the photos because those are only

409
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:39,240
for the jury, right?

410
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,120
And of course, like let's, we have morals.

411
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:48,120
So the medical examiner was like, okay, so there's essentially what happens with a gunshot

412
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:53,400
wound or a bullet wound where it pushes through the skin and they call it skin tagging.

413
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:54,400
Okay.

414
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,240
It sounds pretty graphic.

415
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:03,200
And so they went to the next slide and it was Maggie Murdov's head wound and he said,

416
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:09,680
see here is a beautiful example of, and immediately he was like, I am so sorry.

417
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,200
That is not, I mean, her whole family sitting in that fucking horror room.

418
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,760
And Hush fell over the room and Hush fell over the room.

419
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,360
He goes, I am so sorry.

420
00:20:16,360 --> 00:20:22,920
I meant from a forensic standpoint and an example of this is, oh how embarrassing.

421
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,160
But it's again, person to person.

422
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,520
He probably thinks that it's beautiful because it is so cut and dry and it's so easy to

423
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,200
determine what happened as opposed to maybe something else that's like really, sorry,

424
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,840
pardon my language, but like more messy, right?

425
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,400
And then not as easy to determine what happened.

426
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:39,400
Exactly.

427
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,680
So I know he wasn't trying to be like, you know, in sense.

428
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:42,680
Oh, I like it.

429
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:43,680
Yeah.

430
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,080
No, but I can totally get that.

431
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,720
So, but that's, I mean, that's why I want to do that.

432
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:49,720
Yeah.

433
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,680
Because I do find stuff like that fascinating too.

434
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:52,680
For sure.

435
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:57,480
Anyways, always consult with your doctor about your SAD symptoms and please do not start

436
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,720
any treatment on your own without a consultation.

437
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,360
If you or someone you know is struggling with depression, you can always reach out to the

438
00:21:04,360 --> 00:21:09,280
National Suicide Lifeline at 988 for information and resources.

439
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:14,040
And of course, if you are experiencing an emergency, always dial 911-999 or your local

440
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,000
emergency service number.

441
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,000
For sure.

442
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,000
I also just want to head through this in there.

443
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:25,400
People that, again, educating yourself, right, making sure that you're taking the steps to

444
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,040
potentially prevent this from happening.

445
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:28,680
Again, we're not licensed to diagnose.

446
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,800
We're not licensed to give medical advice.

447
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,880
However, personally, what I like to do is if I know that something's coming up that,

448
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,360
for example, like Sunday scare me, the Sunday scaries, you know, people have experienced

449
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:42,000
that I will prep my day on Sunday.

450
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,000
The Sunday scaries?

451
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,000
You never heard of that?

452
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,000
No.

453
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,000
Oh, okay.

454
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,560
So the Sunday scaries is essentially like you have so much fun on the weekend and

455
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,640
like towards the end of the night on Sunday, you start to get really anxious about your

456
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,640
weekday starting.

457
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:53,640
Oh my gosh.

458
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:54,640
That's so interesting.

459
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:55,640
Oh yeah.

460
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:56,640
I have it every week.

461
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,800
I bet the Germans have a word for that.

462
00:21:58,800 --> 00:21:59,800
I'm sure there is.

463
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,920
What I like to do is prepare for that feeling because I know it's coming, right?

464
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,600
So I'll take a shower early.

465
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:10,440
I'll make sure that I hydrate myself, have plenty of water, plenty of downtime for myself

466
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,840
so that I can relax and I don't have to feel rushed to bed, you know, things like that.

467
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:19,840
So personally what works for me is just preparing myself to have that feeling so that when it

468
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,840
does happen, I don't, it's not as harsh as it could be if I wasn't prepared for it.

469
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:25,840
That's good advice.

470
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:26,840
Yeah.

471
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,840
Yeah, the Sunday scaries, you never heard of that?

472
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,840
No.

473
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,120
We're going to have to call them the seasonal scaries now.

474
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:37,080
So there are a few celebrities that have come out saying that they have S-A-D-E.

475
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,120
I go, ooh, like it's so cool.

476
00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:40,120
That's interesting.

477
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:41,120
That's one of those things.

478
00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:42,120
It's a beautiful celebrity.

479
00:22:42,120 --> 00:22:44,240
Like celebrities are just like us.

480
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,240
Oh my gosh.

481
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:50,640
No, but that's really impressive for someone to be able to, you know, be open about that.

482
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:51,640
Yeah.

483
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,040
Brad Pitt has said that, quote, he was hiding from the celebrity thing, that he was smoking

484
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,840
way too much dope, that he was sitting on the couch and just turned into a doughnut.

485
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:00,840
Oh my gosh.

486
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:05,960
He added, quote, I used to deal with depression, but I don't know, not this decade, maybe last

487
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,960
decade.

488
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,080
But that's also figuring out who you are.

489
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:13,760
I see it as a great education as one of the seasons or a semester.

490
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,440
This semester I was majoring in depression and quote.

491
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:17,440
Ooh, the heat.

492
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,440
Oh my gosh.

493
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:23,840
But that's really good that he's learned how to kind of cope with it and recognize that

494
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,400
it's happening so that he can treat it.

495
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,400
It is interesting that he called it an education.

496
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,400
Yeah, it absolutely is.

497
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:30,400
Yeah.

498
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:36,800
J.K. Rowling has also said, quote, she suffered from severe depression and contemplated suicide.

499
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,760
Starting on her doctor's advice, she started cognitive behavioral therapy and after nine

500
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,640
months she overcame suicidal thoughts and her depression.

501
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,200
She said, quote, it's so difficult to describe depression to someone who's never been there

502
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,640
because it's not sadness.

503
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,480
I know sadness.

504
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:56,200
Sadness is to cry and to feel, but it's a cold absence of feeling that really hollowed

505
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,360
out this feeling.

506
00:23:57,360 --> 00:24:03,280
It's pretty wild to, I mean, you can't compare it to anything, you know, and it's very hard

507
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,320
to just shake it off.

508
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:06,960
Because some people say, oh, just shake it off.

509
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:07,960
It's not a big deal.

510
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,400
Yeah, I know it is a big deal and it's not as easy as just changing your mindset and

511
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:13,920
just forgetting it's there.

512
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,120
Like, you know, like it doesn't let you forget.

513
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:17,120
Right.

514
00:24:17,120 --> 00:24:20,400
Gwyneth Paltrow believes that she too suffered from SAD.

515
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,080
Over the years after having each child, she noticed a correlation between the seasons

516
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,040
and her hormone changes.

517
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:31,080
However, experts believe that maybe she suffered from postpartum depression and the months the

518
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,760
children were born were contributing factors to that.

519
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:34,760
Yeah.

520
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:35,760
And that's a sense for sure.

521
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,120
Either way, she's never been officially diagnosed with SAD, but she's not the only one.

522
00:24:40,120 --> 00:24:41,200
There's plenty of cases out there.

523
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,560
Yeah, there's a lot of celebrities that have come out and been very open about their depression.

524
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:46,560
Yeah.

525
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:52,560
However, I think in order to meet that specific criterion, like you have to meet to get sad,

526
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,480
then it might just be the difference in like a couple of symptoms, right?

527
00:24:55,480 --> 00:25:00,360
Or if it's chronic depression or if it's, you know, there's a bunch of different types,

528
00:25:00,360 --> 00:25:01,800
MDD, things like that.

529
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,240
Even Adele came out saying that she prefers to live in LA because she says that it does

530
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,240
wonders for her health.

531
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,240
The sunshine is different than the UK.

532
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:09,240
I bet.

533
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,080
I mean, there's days here where it rains like two, three days in a row and I'm like,

534
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,080
okay, I'm kind of fucking over this.

535
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,080
You know, like I need some sunshine.

536
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:15,520
I'm gonna go walk outside.

537
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:16,520
Right.

538
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:17,520
But, um, yeah.

539
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:18,520
Without an umbrella.

540
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:19,520
Yeah.

541
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,280
Well, that's SAD, seasonal depression, or the wintery blues.

542
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:24,280
The wintery blues.

543
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:25,840
Thanks for bringing that.

544
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,000
I'm really excited to be back and chatting with you guys.

545
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,000
It feels good.

546
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,520
And please be on the lookout for our newest Patreon episode.

547
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,200
I know it's a few weeks late, but like we explained at the beginning, we were ill.

548
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,320
So we'll be releasing that as soon as we can.

549
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,280
And we're gonna get back on schedule, which means Thursday we're gonna have another case

550
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,120
come out as well.

551
00:25:44,120 --> 00:25:45,520
And so on and so forth.

552
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:46,720
And I forgot it's a leap year.

553
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,200
So there is a 29th this month.

554
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:49,200
Yes, there is.

555
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:53,120
And if you haven't yet, please go get, go ahead and get your tickets for the True Crime

556
00:25:53,120 --> 00:25:57,960
and Paranormal Podcast Festival that is happening July 12th through the 14th of this year in

557
00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:58,960
Denver.

558
00:25:58,960 --> 00:25:59,960
Denver.

559
00:25:59,960 --> 00:26:04,640
And I'll be there since and survivors will be there at a number of really great podcasts.

560
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,040
There's a bunch of new podcasts going this year too, which I'm super excited about.

561
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,200
So you guys continue to buy your merch.

562
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,560
Get ready for July.

563
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,360
It's coming up way faster than we think.

564
00:26:15,360 --> 00:26:18,520
It will be here before we know it.

565
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,160
And if you are not already on our Patreon, you can join our Patreon.

00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:32,760
the end of every month.

569
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:33,760
Yes.

570
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,680

Everything is at diagnosing a killer.

577
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,360
And I think that's it.

578
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:52,360
I think that's it.

579
00:26:52,360 --> 00:26:55,920
We will see you guys on Thursday with another case and hopefully better voices.

580
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:56,920
Yes.

581
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:57,920
All right.
