Mm.

And, like, the teammate and also just the person, in a sense, that he was becoming or that you didn't see behind the scenes.
55:10
Like that, those are some stories that I have heard that I hadn't realized.
55:14
Um, I think, you know, you will hear from some people who we haven't heard from before, including his mom, and I think it's more of that.
55:22
It is, in some senses, it's more detail than, or different detail than we've had in other stories, meaning some recordings, some, you know, 911 call type things.
55:33
So I think, you know, that is, those are some of the things that I think will be new to people.
55:39
But overall, it is, you know, it is the story, but it is also with some context that... 'Cause you guys know, 'cause you, you were there, obviously.

Just th- them kind of rolling out some s- some Skins merchandise at this point.
3:19
Can you tell us a little bit more about it?
3:22
Yeah, so it's on ID, which is on Investigation Discovery, and it's called Game Day Murders, and it is the intersection of sports and...
3:33
True crime, really.
3:34
Sports and murder.
3:35
So it's wild.
3:37
So here's how it started.
3:38
It was they asked me a while back to be a part of a documentary that I was doing on Aaron Hernandez.

Like how do you get ready for football season? Are you like calling coaches, reaching out, like getting information or what do you do now?
2:33
Can you tell us a little bit more about it?
2:36
Yeah, so it's on ID, which is on Investigation Discovery, and it's called Game Day Murders, and it is the intersection of sports and...
2:47
True crime, really.
2:48
Sports and murder.
2:50
So it's wild.
2:51
So here's how it started.

sleepnumber.com. For football season, are you, like, calling coaches, reaching out, like, getting information? Or what do you do now?
19:47
What made you want to venture out into this?
19:51
I think when the opportunity presented itself, part of the thing is when you are given access in what you do in your job to these athletes and you watch them on the field, what they do, but you see them off the field, the locker room, the camaraderie they build, you realize the culture around sports.
20:05
And that was a big piece of it for me because everybody has a story and these stories are... incredibly entertaining, compelling, tragic in a lot of ways.
20:15
But it also was just such a different side of sports.
20:18
And at the key of it, the seed of what I think was the catalyst for a lot of these crimes, they're things that people can all relate to.
20:25
They're the things like greed, jealousy, all of that.
20:27
So there was a lot about it that I was really intrigued by.
21:02
There was one that actually hit close to home for you.
12:59
Oh, hub-
12:59
I love an opportunity to perform on stage.
13:04
And you might laugh, but because professionally in the sports lane I would say that play-by-play is something that has always intrigued me, I love to do improv comedy.
13:17
[laughs] And you're laughing, but it is-
13:38
This is great.
13:38
Has she performed?
7:42
part-time.
7:43
Oh, yeah.
7:43
I was a yo employee, which for people that don't...
7:46
It was a...
7:47
You're a part-time employee at NBC.
7:49
You're basically, like, contracted out.
7:51
And they were like, get here.
