  • Let's Read! - Ep. 8: "The Family Next Door" (Chapters 22 - 26)

    In this episode of our "Let's Read" series, we will be continuing our reading of "The Family Next Door: The Heartbreaking Imprisonment of the Thirteen Turpin SIblings and Their Extraordinary Rescue" by the incomparable John Glatt!

    Specifically, this episode is going to cover the SWARM of media attention that the Turpin case eventually saw come its way, as well as the trial proceedings of David and Louise, and the healing progress of their thirteen children.

    This episode has ACTUAL AUDIO FOOTAGE from the Turpin case, and even some audio footage of one of the children's YouTube videos. The internet is a strange and eerie place, and it has allowed us to find these supplemental materials and view them along with reading.

    Let's read!

    Howdy, ya'll! This is the first-ever GUEST EPISODE OF MY PODCAST!  I couldn't bring just anybody on as my first guest, though.

We talk about our old teachers, old jobs, and old habits. Moreover, in this episode, you get to see me and my best friend at our most relaxed; at our most pure and natural state as best friends. Meet my best friend. You're gonna love him. I love him so much! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Making internet content full-time can be INCREDIBLY unstable and mentally straining. Making a Patreon seemed like a good idea, especially now that I am actually giving out concrete podcast episodes on a fairly basic schedule. It is my lifelong DREAM to be able to do this full-time - to be able to use my voice to tell stories and to be able to support myself by doing so. That, my friends, is the dream come true.


    For now, until I somehow become an audiobook narrator or a bona-fide voice actor, Patreon is the way to go! If you'd like to support me and be a part of that dream coming true, then feel free! If you just want to continue on listening, or if you'd like to support, but can't, don't worry or beat yourself up! I love you all the same. I'm just glad you're here at all!

    If you have any suggestions on tiers you'd like to see or content that you'd like me to make, feel free to shoot me an email at "[email protected]"! I look forward to hearing from you! 

    You need brain food. Let me feed you. Let me feed you... A Slice of Ham.
