- 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.

Her account is simple, clear and easy to picture, and it shows you exactly what the truth sounds like. Then you'll hear Caleb's 911 call and the bodycam footage from the scene, with the transcript taken apart line by line. Listen to how fast the break in story arrives, what he leaves out about his wife, and why he still hadn't checked on his daughters. Once you hear the difference, you can't unhear it.Caleb Flynn has pleaded not guilty and the trial is ongoing.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

- 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?
