The podcast dedicated to the disappearance of Kristin Smart hit 7.5 million downloads this week.
The milestone came just two days after the arrest of Paul and Ruben Flores.
"Your Own Backyard" was also the No. 2 podcast on iTunes this week.
Launched in 2019, podcaster Chris Lambert quit his full-time job mid-year to dedicate seven days a week to the show.
San Luis Obispo County Sheriff Ian Parkinson says Lambertâs work helped with the case, including bringing national attention to it.
âThe podcast brought onto the forefront for everybody, which I think is a really good thing. I think the tough part about it is people hear it and then they believe that they either know what happened or that action should be taken immediately because they believe that Flores is responsible,â Sheriff Ian Parkinson told radio host Adam Montiel during an interview Thursday morning on Coast 104.5.
