One of the funniest things in the world to me is that comedy podcaster/video game journalist Justin Mcelroy will occasionally get emails intended for Crime/Politics Vancouver reporter Justin Mcelroy

Vancouver reporter Justin Mcelroy responded to this on the mbmbam subreddit

——————-

Hey folks, it’s Vancouver reporter Justin McElroy!


So, this tip — one morning a couple years ago, police announced they had discovered a recently dead body in a sewer drain, but didn’t release many more details.


I was working that morning, and we had a reporter on scene, but we weren’t really getting anywhere with the story.


Then, somebody sent an email to Podcast Justin McElroy (as I generally call him) saying … well, I can’t exactly remember what, since I’ve since changed companies.


But it was very short, with no formalities, something along the lines of “I live next to the sewer where the body was found this morning and have information,” which must have been a very jarring thing for Podcast McElroy to suddenly read on a Sunday morning.


Luckily, he realized who the email was intended for, forwarded it, and I think that helped us in our reporting that day.


I was very grateful — but not, you know, grateful enough to give him the domain to justinmcelroy.com
