Who was killed first?

I want to ask Mandy, Eric and Liz what order they think the prosecution will say in the trial who was killed first. I keep flip flopping. I think sometimes that Paul "got involved in something he shouldn't" and he was the target because his trial would end when he died (therefore hiding his financial crimes longer) and Maggie ran away when she heard the shots and he shot her second. Then I flip my thinking and consider that he lured Maggie to the house, her friends said she was suspicious, they didn't end up going to see her father-in-law (the reason for the lure) and didn't know Paul was there when he confronted her about her about something triggering (like going to the police or his law firm or divorcing him or even for sympathy so everyone would lay off him), then Paul hid in the the feed room and he opened the door and shot him point blank because he was a witness ("why did you have to get involved"). Two different guns also suggests to me one was not planned or was "discovered" after the other was shot. I would love to know what you each speculate.

Sponsor

I worry about the show and the sponsorship by the microdosing company. Is there any concern long term about this as an issue for you? Thanks

sources

My questions are more journalistic wonders for Mandy and Liz. Y'all have gone from writing for the Island Packet to FITS News and now doing the podcast full-time. Have sources been more open (or less open) during these transitions? Were sources more apt to speak with you when you worked for a daily print/web organization or when its online-only organization? Also, do you miss writing news stories? I know covering this story on a daily basis and writing stories is tough, but do you miss the ability to tell a breaking news story in more than 140 (or however many) characters on Twitter?

I hate to into the minutiae of nomenclature, but this one trips me up a bit, especially since I listen to the pod when I’m skiing and generally am not in a position to rewind to listen for context. When you are referring to ‘acid test’, is that more or less the same thing as a litmus test?
