Description
Welcome to Courtroom Confidential Conversations! In this episode, Joshua Ritter sits down with Lauren and Dr. John Matthias, the duo behind the hit podcast and YouTube channel Hidden True Crime.
Lauren, a journalist and former news anchor, and Dr. John, a forensic psychologist, discuss how their shared fascination with the mysteries of true crime brought them together—from their first conversation discussing a grisly murder to their marriage and eventual decision to launch Hidden True Crime.
They discuss their unique approach to storytelling, combining psychological insights with investigative depth, and how the Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow case inspired them to start their podcast during the pandemic.
