LM's interview was 4 minutes.
The YT analysis live show linked above was 3 hours! Perhaps somebody with more time than myself can do a recap of the relevant info. Thanks!
ETA: You can bypass the first 30 mins of introductions...
That analysis is excellent. I would encourage everyone to listen to it. There is nothing to watch, so it is perfect for commuting, mopping, laundry, etc. I am not through it, but I had a hinky moment of my own at just about the 2:00 hour mark:
LM states "morning... sunrise hike" "wine-tasting in Temecula" and "early morning brunch". These are his excuses for why Maya was not at home early Saturday morning when her parents stopped by.
He's making it up, but I think he is recalling something. Did they ever take a hot air balloon in Temecula? There is a company Sunrise Balloons in Temecula. They serve pastries and champagne. The checkin is at a winery, and balloon riders qualify for a 2 for 1 wine tasting & tour deal.
This winery, Monte de Oro, has a bistro, but others nearby have brunch, champagne brunch, many restaurants, and there is a very nice casino-resort nearby, Pechanga.

It sounded to me like LM said something that he wished he had not, like he wanted to correct the word "morning" with the word "sunrise". We know he wants people to believe that Maya went on a hike. And someone already noted "early morning" does not mix with "brunch". He ends up saying "morning" twice, which is one of his slips or tells to repeat a word, so it means something. There is something in here he does not want us to know, so he is babbling, maybe recalling a prior sunrise balloon ride, brunch and wine-tasting? AND he is LYING because all of the indoor dining like brunch, and wine-tasting all over southern Califormia is CLOSED since March or April 2020, and he knows it - so No, Maya did not go to brunch or wine-tasting and He.Knows.It. because he lives there.
JMO he has driven up into any of the southern California rugged mountain areas and dumped Maya there to further his hike theory if her remains are ever found. He says Solana Beach (north and west)? Then Look for Maya east to the mountains. He says Temecula (north, in Riverside County)? Then Look for Maya east to the mountains. He is giving misdirections. (I keep thinking of Gardner's victim missing for over a year out there in the Pala hills.)
LM should listen to this video! They are nailing him. It's only a matter of time...

ETA: Another possible Freudian slip in this small part relates to a location
Sunrise Highway, Mount Laguna, Cuyamaca State Park, scenic drive. Go east on I-8, exit Pine Valley. Sunrise Hwy, aka S1, connects to SR79. That's exactly the sort of mountainous area for a body dump.
