Never A Truer Word

The Best Communicators Aren't The Best Talkers

What listening well does for your credibility that talking never can

Jack Fox has spent years studying the words of thousands of criminals and people under pressure. And one of the most consistent things he has found is that the people who give themselves away do so because someone was truly listening to them. Not waiting for their turn to speak. Actually listening. In this episode of How Words Work, Jack Fox makes the case that listening is the most underrated communication skill most people have. He looks at what happens in the brain when someone feels truly heard, what the research says about listening and trust, and what changes in your conversations when you stop forming your response before the other person has finished. How Words Work is a weekly podcast with Jack Fox.

Caleb Flynn's murder trial just heard one answer from his mistress, Alleigha Botner, that you need to hear for yourself. The question was simple: how did you lose the laptop? What came back was a defence nobody asked for, a detour into running out of gas and forgetting everything, and a story that drifts further from that plane with every sentence. In this update, Jack Fox takes this single answer apart line by line so you can hear exactly what her words give away.The prosecution has shown intense interest in the communications between Botner and Flynn, and she told the jury they exchanged more than 100,000 messages. The laptop is gone. Whatever it held is gone with it. So the only thing left to examine is how she explains losing it, and that explanation says plenty.Caleb Flynn is charged with the murder of his wife, Ashley Flynn, and his trial is ongoing. He is presumed innocent unless proven guilty. Alleigha Botner is a witness and is not charged with any offence.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

The Matthew Exton trial put a former Ohio attorney on the stand, and what he says will drop your jaw before he even gets through the first few answers. Jack Fox pulls apart every strange sentence he gives, from arguing over what counts as a photograph to refusing a simple yes or no, all while insisting a loaded gun was somehow protecting him. Watching Matthew tangle himself in his own contradictions live under oath in a Toledo courtroom is one of the wildest testimonies you will see this year, and Jack breaks it down blind, with no background on the case, purely from the words themselves.Jack works through the testimony line by line with no outside knowledge of the case, spotting every place where the story shifts, stalls or contradicts itself, and pulling apart every sentence for what it reveals about this attorney and the night at a Toledo restaurant that ended with a waiter stepping in.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

Laura Owens didn't just deny her felony charges, she wrote a press statement built to convince you she was innocent. This is a live episode, and Jack goes back to that original post from when she was first charged to break down exactly where her words gave her away. You'll hear how she framed the paternity case against Bachelor star Clayton Echard, and Jack has spotted something in this post from Laura that points to a level of manipulation you need to see for yourself.This one connects straight to the drama that followed, the fallout that's been picked apart everywhere from courtroom reporting to Love Trapped Podcast, and it shows you exactly how someone writes when they're guilty and think nobody's reading closely enough.Some personal thoughts on the Laura Owens case: https://neveratruerword.substack.com/p/laura-owens-pleads-guilty-some-thoughtsWant more from Never A Truer Word?

Death of the Pastor's Wife is the case Netflix just put back in front of millions, and Jack takes you straight into the words at the centre of it. Mica Miller was found dead in April 2024, just days after she filed for divorce from her husband, Pastor JP Miller. You'll hear how JP described Mica, how he described their marriage, and how he described the night she died, including his own line, "I got a call late last night." Jack pulls that language apart piece by piece and shows you exactly what it holds.JP Miller has pleaded not guilty to federal cyberstalking and false statement charges and has not been charged over Mica's death. This video is Jack's analytical read of his public statements, not a verdict on the case.Want more from Never A Truer Word?
