About this episode

After a rough start, Kristin was adjusting well at Cal Poly. She made friends and even took a lifeguard position that required her to get up by 4:20 AM.


And then she disappeared. 

Nearby, Mary had just rented a new house but the problem was that dang alarm. It would go off every day at 4:20 AM and she didn’t know where it was. 


But strangely it wasn’t coming inside the house. But outside. Sounded like it was buried. But who would buy a stopwatch? '

*The podcast “Your Own Backyard” - by Chris Lambert is one of the most heartbreaking, thorough, and well-done podcasts I’ve ever listened to… Please go give it a listen because there’s so much more to this story.
