Hosted by journalist Chris Lambert, Your Own Backyard is a compelling, multi-part documentary podcast that investigates the 1996 disappearance of Cal Poly student Kristin Smart. YOB debuted in 2019, and Lambert’s extensive yet respectful storytelling helped reignite interest in the case after more than 25 years, eventually aiding in the conviction of Paul Flores—the man found guilty of murdering Smart—in March 2023. The 10-episode series takes listeners back to where it all started (in San Luis Obispo, California), and later brings them to court, where Lambert thoroughly recaps trial events with the help of the prosecution team and the jury.
