I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I dunno guys. You, me, the State of Maryland, based on the information we have before us, I don’t believe any of us can say what really happened to Hae. As a juror I vote to acquit Adnan Syed. I have to acquit. Even if in my heart of hearts I think Adnan killed Hae, I still have to acquit. That’s what the law requires of jurors. But I’m not a juror, so just as a human being walking down the street next week, what do I think? If you ask me to swear that Adnan Syed is innocent, I couldn’t do it.

Oh yeah. I'd absolutely acquit. Because he didn't do it.

Sort of intrigued about this one, especially the synopsis of tbe episode quoted below:


“Berkshire’s UFO,” directed by Marcus A. Clarke

On September 1, 1969, many residents in Berkshire County, Massachusetts were traumatized by a sighting of a UFO. Eyewitnesses — many just children at the time — have spent their lives trying to convince the world that what they saw was real.

UFO stuff doesn't hold the allure for me that it used to. But I will definitely check this out.

Whether or not you believe Adnan is guilty seems like a "fun" voir dire screening question.
