The start of today’s show, Episode 148: It Dragged My Puppy Away, is a little different. The Confessionals had a record month in July with 751,000 downloads, and as I pondered where the show currently is with its reach, I began to wonder who is hitting play on a weekly basis. With the horrific shootings over this past weekend in Texas and Ohio, I felt an overwhelming sense of obligation to speak to some of the people that might be listening and who are thinking about hurting themselves or other people. For the first 30 minutes, you will not hear your typical introduction to a weekly episode. I don't like living with regrets and if I didn't say what I felt inside I would regret it in the morning. So as much as I bounced back and forth on whether or not to say something different, I decided to go for it. I hope that it reaches someone that needed to hear something that I said.

After the extended introduction, we bring on Kimberly who shares with us about her haunting experiences in a few apartments, while also living in the midst of some really bad life circumstances. Some of the things she describes sound terrifying to have to gone through, but she came out seemingly upbeat about life.
