    The Vengeance

    Send us a text This episode explores the collision of pain, loyalty, and vengeance in a family on the edge. Content warning: themes of sexual abuse and trauma. Listener discretion is advised. When their mother suddenly passes, three adult siblings reunite under one roof for the first time in years. But this isn’t a time for mourning—it’s a reckoning. Beneath the surface of awkward condolences and casseroles lies a buried truth: each of them was molested by their stepfather, a man their mother always defended. With her gone, the silence they've carried for decades begins to crack. Old wounds are reopened, secrets resurface, and a dark plan for revenge begins to take shape. But can justice heal what trauma has broken—or will it destroy what’s left of their fragile bond? Support the show
