In this episode, Jack Fox from Never a Truer Word joins us to examine how perspective (the speaker’s viewpoint, context, and intent) can alter the way we interpret statements revealed in the most recent FOIA release related to the Michael John Olson case. Together, we break down how phrasing, timing, stress, and memory can subtly shift meaning, and why even small linguistic choices, like active versus passive voice, distancing language, or what’s left unsaid, can reshape how investigators build timelines and form hypotheses.
