Made famous by the 1994 movie starring Luke Perry and Steven Baldwin, Lane Frost was a cowboy who followed rodeos around the country, his prowess in bull riding being particularly noteworthy.

(Content warning: we will be discussing Lane’s death.)

The “zone of Death,” is a thought experiment by a law scholar about this one weird place in Yellowstone where you could, theoretically, get away with murder. PLEASE DON’T TRY TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER WE DO NOT CONDONE THAT. The idea is that you have a right to be seen by a jury of your peers, but there aren’t enough peers that match your specific location if you’re in Idaho’s very small section of Yellowstone park. Why? You’ll have to listen to find out.
