  • The Lost Kids OKC

    To my delight I discovered this illuminating podcast (the 1996 Oklahoma bombing) narrated by The New Yorker writer, Jeffery Toobin.

  • Troubled Teen

    I attended A Better Way Youth Academy dba Coral Reef, in Western Samoa, ran by NFL player Rodney Rice. Redcliff Accent in Utah, and Mission Mountain School in Montana. All of which catapulted me into a lifetime of PTSD, trouble, and turmoil.

  • Accurate

    I attended a spin-off of CEDU called Amity in Arezzo, Italy in the early 90’s. This is an extremely accurate portrayal of what life was like at these places.
