Realization

As I sit here listening to the podcast, I hear my own story. It was done by my ex father-in-law. We never told anybody outside of the family and his current wife she knew about it. She blamed us. Now thinking of it as a 45-year-old no longer that 19-year-old woman or young girl we confronted this man he did that to myself and to my ex sister-in-law at the time was only 17 years old and I sit back right now, thinking about it and I don don’t know if he ever did this again to somebody else but looking at the statistics, you find that it’s there’s no there’s no other rationale behind it. He probably has done this later and before and after and so forth, but right now I don’t know what I’m supposed to do with this information that I have that’s so old. I had a son with my ex-husband and he didn’t go over there by themselves, but I do know that my ex had a stepdaughter that he allowed to go over there and over and over again I kept telling him what the heck is wrong with you. Why is it that you don’t understand that this man is probably doing the same thing he did to me and there’s a possibility that he’s doing them to your daughter or your stepdaughter and he just refused to understand or listen or think about it, but I never told anybody. I never told the authorities. What do I do with this kind information now help. Thank you.

Too many ads!

I know ads are necessary, but this is excessive and detracts from the story.

?.............."......... ,

Annoying ads

It’s not just the frequency of the ads, but the high level of annoyance of the ads. “Hey it’s whoever” I can’t hit fast forward quickly enough. The show is good but this coned really close to me deleting the show.
