The Knife: A True Crime Podcast · Off Record: Finding the Lost Girls (with Paul Holes) · 20 Aug 2026 podcast

Paul, welcome to the knife. voice-verified

It's great. voice-verified

Paysha and I are really excited to speak with you today. voice-verified

We're so excited that you are on our podcast. voice-verified

So today we're mostly going to talk with you about your audiobook, Finding the Lost Girls. voice-verified

But first, you know, for listeners who may not know your background, you're a former cold case investigator with the Contra Costa County Sheriff's Office. voice-verified

Um, you've worked a ton of investigations, but you know, probably most famously helping identify the Golden State killer. voice-verified

I'm curious, and as I was reading your book, I was really wanting. voice-verified

to hear you talk a little bit more about how you ended up specializing in cold cases specifically. voice-verified

Like was there a moment when you realized that this was the specific lane that you wanted to spend your time in? voice-verified

I guess. voice-verified

Wow. voice-verified

I mean, when I was reading Michelle McNamara's book, I could not go to sleep after. voice-verified

I'd have to be like, Let me put on some reality television for a little bit. voice-verified

That's so interesting. voice-verified

And I think that's a good transition into talking about Joe Naso because you mentioned in your book, Finding the Lost Girls, and I don't know if this is official or, you know, he's been diagnosed, but you basically portray Joe Naso as like also not a sociopath. voice-verified

Right. voice-verified

Someone who is capable of empathy. voice-verified

So, you know, this book it follows your investigation, reinvestigation. voice-verified

Investigation into the case of the serial predator, serial killer Joe Nas. voice-verified
