Sorry if you have already covered this. But PLEASE do a video on the story of David Kelly possibly murdered whistleblower in the UK. It's so weird to me that story. Thanks for the great vids

8:00 So you're telling me I can go to sleep while listening to La Blue Girl and Bible Black without judgement? That's so nice to know.

I think we can officially say what we already knew Fern has changed the style of story telling and documentary making

2:41 – Don't you háte it how clothesline gets everywhere? EVERY TIME I trip over a bathtub and find myself once again with my head and arms in the lavatory sink, with a lot of stáb-wóúñdš and fractures all over my bódý, I find that once again some stray clothesline has accidentally gotten all tangled up in amongst my wrists, ankles, and neck. People, keep your spare clotheslines neat and spooled. Stray clothesline left to be carried by winds and drafts just gets everywhere!

I wonder what if the press didn't say that the crime was perfect? How such a statement give the killer the confidence that he got away with his crime and gave him a validation for a way of attempting murder whithout geting caught that may be he used for another crime afterwards? and for the police what if they didn't declare the victim dead and gave a false statement that the victim is alive, then waited for the killer to pay him a visit in the hospital? there are more questions that could be raised about the press and police response at that time.

Cool old-timey music and voices.
Not sure why I haven't heard this story before…. equally unsure why this wasn't at the top of my feed.

Honestly hate this new setup. If I wanted to watch lame reenactments, I’d watch ID on discovery. The voiceovers are terrible. Couldn’t even finish it. Leave it to private equity to ruin something that was already great.

I'd think if you're in trouble or running away from someone the last thing you'd say is "leave my door unlocked, i'm expecting a friend". Seems to me like Ogletree was frightened of “Don” while continuing to interact with him voluntarily. Very abusive relationship vibes here.

How can you afford to spend all this money on a single episode?
I don't want you guys going bankrupt
