NATW Podcast: Love Trapped's Laura Owens Drops a New Blog
Yesterday01:00:02Tap to summarizeLaura Owens has published a blog. She says it answers the question that has trailed her for months. Where was she on October 21 and 22, 2025. The two days a court was waiting. The two days that now sit at the centre of a $109,633 attorney's fee motion against her.The Love Trapped podcast touched on this part of the story, let's dive deeper into what Laura has to say.Is there is a question this blog does not want you to ask. Regular patterns, a day that disappears between the paragraphs. A choice of words she keeps reaching for whenever she enters the story.You'll see what Jack Fox catches the moment he catches it. You'll watch a 2,000 word defence start to look like something else entirely. And by the time he closes the blog, you'll understand why the most important thing in this statement is the thing Laura Owens left out.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Mila Adams Testimony at the Stefon Diggs Trial
3d ago01:00:23Tap to summarize*Includes bonus podcast only content*Mila Adams went viral for her testimony at the Stefon Diggs trial, and not in the way she would have wanted. The accusation was serious. She told a courtroom the NFL star had attacked her and choked her in a bedroom. The verdict came back not guilty. So what really happened on that witness stand?In this episode you'll watch Jack Fox use her own testimony as a live teaching showcase. He'll walk you through the exact verbal mistakes that signal someone isn't telling you the truth. The lawyer asked simple yes or no questions. Mila answered with stories, with new subjects, with questions of her own. When pressed about a 5.5 million dollar demand from her side and a 100,000 dollar offer she claimed came from his, her language slipped in ways the jury could feel even if they couldn't name it.You'll see what happened when she admitted deleting words like "bitch" and "I'm ruining that bitch life" from text messages before she handed them to police. You'll hear her caught trying to claim payment for a week she'd already been paid for, and watch her language scramble in real time. Jack will name each verbal tell so you can spot it yourself, anywhere, in anyone.Then he turns those same tools on the moment that mattered most. Her account of the alleged attack. The closed door. The dresser. The arm around her neck. Her words travel backwards in time, jump sideways, and skip past the questions that should have been simplest to answer. By the end you'll have your own view on what her language suggests really happened in that room.You won't hear another conversation like this about the case.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Blake Lively Statement
1w ago00:13:09Tap to summarizeBlake Lively and Wayfarer Studios have released a joint statement. Every headline is running the same word. That word does not appear anywhere in the statement itself.Jack Fox reads every line. You'll see how the statement carefully avoids giving any credence to the claims Blake Lively made in her lawsuit. You'll see how one sentence appears to celebrate the film's impact on domestic violence survivors — and why Jack Fox finds that the words don't actually say what they seem to.Something significant is missing from this statement. See if you can spot it before Jack does.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Chris Watts vs The FBI
1w ago00:59:26Tap to summarizeChris Watts sat across from an FBI agent who told him directly: "I don't believe you." What followed was one of the most revealing interrogations ever recorded.In this episode, Jack Fox takes you through the moment Watts was presented with the idea of "two Chris's." One who loved his family, one who killed them. Watts never rejected it. He just kept talking, telling the agent which Chris he was looking at right now.You'll hear how Watts called his daughters' daycare the morning they were missing. Not to ask if they were safe. To take them off the waiting list and tell the school the family would be selling the house. You'll see exactly what Jack Fox identifies in that call and why the language tells a story Watts never meant to share.You'll also see the moment the agent asks what should happen to whoever took his wife and daughters. Watts skips straight to the death penalty. Then pauses to wonder whether Colorado even uses it.Jack Fox shows you how the structure of Watts' answers, what he volunteers and what he refuses to say, maps the shape of what he knew. There is no urgency to find them. No demand to be out searching. The concern you'd expect from a husband and father is absent from every exchange.A man whose words arrived at the truth before he did.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Russell Brand vs Piers Morgan
2w ago00:37:10Tap to summarizeRussell Brand's interview with Piers Morgan went viral. But what was actually happening in that conversation?Jack Fox examines the language Russell Brand used in one of the most talked-about interviews of the year, and what he finds isn't what Brand said. It's what he refused to say.This one came straight from you. It's been one of the most requested episodes the Never A Truer Word audience has asked for.When Piers Morgan asks Brand directly why he's avoiding a question, Brand's answer is four words: "Because I have a better one." You'll hear exactly what that admission tells Jack about how Brand operates throughout the entire interview.When Piers asks Brand to define the line between his past conduct with a 16-year-old and something criminal, you'll watch Brand's words turn a direct personal question into an abstract discussion about jurisdictional law. Jack shows you precisely how that pivot works and what it reveals.And when Piers presses on vaccines and gets told twice to "calm down and slow down" before being instructed to free himself from media conditioning, Jack unpacks why Brand consistently repositions himself as the authority in every exchange he is supposed to be answering.This is a word-by-word look at how a man uses language to stay in control of a conversation he is supposed to be answering.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Cole Allen - Shooter's Manifesto
2w ago00:20:39Tap to summarizeCole Allen wrote more than a thousand words before he started running.He opened with "Hello everybody." He closed by thanking the people in his life for 31 years of love. And somewhere in between, he laid out exactly who he was planning to go through to reach his targets.In this episode, Jack Fox takes you through the full text of the manifesto Allen sent to his family and what he finds isn't just what Allen wrote. It's what he didn't.Allen ranks his targets. He names a specific exception. He sets out rules of engagement in careful categories. But the people he loves? His parents, his colleagues, his students, the friends he'd known for years? Not one of them gets a name. They are there but they are kept at a distance, even in his final words to them.Jack Fox also takes you through the structure of the document itself. Allen builds a formal objection and rebuttal section, arguing against himself point by point before he leaves the room. You'll see what that structure tells us about where his mind was, and what it means when someone spends more words on the people they are not targeting than on those they are.This is a document written by someone who wanted to be understood. Jack Fox examines whether the words he chose actually achieved that.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Michael Jackson
2w ago00:57:52Tap to summarizeMichael Jackson was one of the most famous people who ever lived. When the allegations emerged, the world watched him speak. He gave interviews. He sat for a deposition. He went on camera and answered questions directly.But Jack Fox has been through every word of those statements. And what he found is not what you'd expect from an innocent man with nothing to hide.You'll see how the same story shifted across different interviews, not the facts, but the framing. And you'll watch how every direct question about whether it would stop was met with a question back: "Stop what? Watch out for what? Do what again?"With the film Michael now in cinemas, the conversation is alive again. Jack Fox goes back to the source. Not the headlines. The words.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

NATW Podcast: Mike Vrabel
3w ago00:24:54Tap to summarizeMike Vrabel has spoken. But Jack Fox isn't listening to what he said. He's looking at what he didn't say.In the ten days since photos and pictures of Vrabel and NFL reporter Dianna Russini went public, the New England Patriots head coach has faced questions that go far beyond football. And when he finally addressed the news, his statement gave the world words. Jack Fox finds out whether those words tell the whole story.You'll hear a man who takes accountability without ever saying what he's accountable for. You'll see how every reference to change is framed as a future promise, never a present reality. And you'll notice that when it comes to the person at the centre of this story, her name never appears once.Vrabel stepped away from Patriots duties to seek counselling. He stood in front of the cameras and told the world his priorities are his wife, his family and this football team. Jack Fox examines the exact words used, the sequence they were placed in, and the moment the statement shifts from addressing the news to asking everyone to leave it alone.What does a man sound like when he's trying to close a story rather than tell one?

NATW Podcast: Gerhardt Konig Trial - Arielle's Testimony
3w ago00:48:53Tap to summarizeGerhardt Konig has been found guilty. But not of what prosecutors wanted.He was charged with attempted murder. The verdict came back as attempted manslaughter. A husband and wife on a hiking trail. One of them nearly went over a cliff. The question the jury couldn't fully answer, and the question Jack Fox is now putting to the words themselves, is: whose version of that day is true?Last episode, Jack examined Gerhardt's account. Now he turns to Arielle Konig's testimony from the witness stand. She describes being grabbed, pushed toward the edge, wrestled to the ground, straddled, and confronted with a syringe she says appeared from nowhere. She tells the court what she said to stop him. She tells them what he said back. And then she says he reached for a rock.What she says is detailed. What she says is consistent. But there are moments in her account, specific words, specific gaps, specific choices, where the story does something Jack doesn't expect.This is the trial the world watched. This is the testimony that shaped the verdict. And this is where the language is put under the lens.Want more from Never A Truer Word?
