About Us
Into the Weeds is a long-form interview podcast on Military Broadcast Radio hosted by Amber Deitz, and her daughter Alaura. The show focuses on faith, moral injury, institutional failure, missing persons, cold cases, and prison reform, with an emphasis on evidence-based discussion and thoughtful analysis.
Amber has over 20 years of experience in ministry and brings a steady, context-driven approach to complex conversations. Alaura contributes a clear-eyed generational perspective that adds candor and precision without sensationalism. Together, they create space for serious dialogue.
The podcast regularly centers victims’ families, examines overlooked or unresolved cases, and includes interviews with incarcerated individuals to explore accountability, sentencing, and systemic impact. Into the Weeds is built around careful listening, primary sources, and conversations that allow for nuance and complexity.
