Ashley’s story
5d ago
Boy o boy that was like going back in time 40 years. Ashley, thank you for sharing with us the evidence of his abuse, lies, and gaslighting. We ask ourselves, why does it take so long to find the courage to leave all that behind for good? Finally leaving, my life with 2 babies under the age of 3 began to see the fog lift. The almost subservience that I had succumbed to after so many years of gaslighting and abuse took time to shed. Once I was really clear about my family’s future, like you and so many others, transformed into the fierce unstoppable woman that our children need(ed) us to be.
Well Done

I have many things to say, but she needs to be careful. The world is not what it used to be. Since the evidence has proven her guilt, the world is watching her.
The keepsake Scandal

How disgusting people are sending body parts and breast milk to this scammer. Why do people fetishize childbirth? 🤮
Awesome

I listen all morning when working alone in a old three story building. Your voice is calming for my anxiety and love the work you do. I will continue to listen and convince everyone else to listen too. Thank you for all the investigating and work you do to produce your podcasts. It’s amazing.
Breath of fresh air

I absolutely love this pod. The host is so likable. He is able to keep his cool and empathetic approach with the most unhinged subjects, yet he doesn’t shy away from the tough questions. Absolutely the best journalist for the job when it comes to the Ladonna/ stalker family types. Ten stars for doing the legwork to produce these fascinating glimpses into the types of people that most of us (hopefully) won’t have to encounter. Plus I just love his style.
Great show

Love this podcast and hearing stories about con artists and fraudsters. Javier does a great job telling the stories and leaving you wanting more
Greedy?

The ad to content ratio in this one is too high for me. Really a gambling app ad?!? It that when you want to be associated with?
Great podcast

Javier did a great job investigating LaDonna Humphreys. It is sad he could not get anyone to address these issue. LaDonna’s behavior is acceptable. The allegations should be investigated to the fullest. I’d be happy to be hired by the Arkansas Attorney General to do the job. Too many red flags.
Telepathy Tapes Comparison

This discussion totally reminds me of using Ouija Boards, it’s almost the same, but without consequences. Ouija Boards would be a great Pretend topic! Also, what about non-verbal autistic adults? Is this only a kid thing, or is it just easier to use kids as examples?
5 gold stars

An excellent podcast by a very talented investigative journalist. A great premise for a podcast too! Dont miss the Ladonna Humphries episodes, season 17 I believe.
