Never A Truer Word

Cole 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?

Michael 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?

Mike 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? You're about to find out.Want more from Never A Truer Word?

Gerhardt 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?
