Orcutt Native, Chris Lambert, launched a podcast a little over a year ago, investigating the 1996 disappearance of Cal Poly student Kristin Smart.
That first episode of âYour Own Backyardâ aired on Sept. 30, 2019.
âMy expectations at the very beginning of putting the podcast out were that maybe a small local following would pay attention,â Lambert said.
Fifteen months and eight episodes later, Lambert says the podcast has been downloaded more than 5.5 million times around the globe, though heâs stopped checking that figure.
HYPER-LOCAL SERVICES
The San Luis Obispo County Grand Jury suggested incorporated areas not already receiving dispatch services from the county sheriff do so, but Atascadero says it s not feasible for it. At the Atascadero City Council s Dec. 8 council meeting, it rejected a San Luis Obispo County grand jury recommendation to consolidate dispatch services with the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff s Office, citing projected increased costs. A grand jury report states that communities not already contracting with the Sheriff s Office would benefit from consolidation, however the jury also included information about how much more the services would cost Atascadero. It says right in the report, this would cost us money, so I don t know where they got on suggesting we should do this for the benefit of others, City Councilmember Charles Bourbeau said.
