Confronting Debra:Hard Truths for Hard Times

I can’t find the specific exchange I mention but it’s in the second hour. The first 41 minutes are skippable. The “hard truths” part begins at 41:15

It’s a hard episode to watch, this one. Very uncomfortable for Debra. For the viewer too. And Adam is not the type of person to mollycoddle her throughout the difficult moments. He keeps a deadpan face. I like him though. I like them both. It’s obvious the podcast has deepened their relationship but oh god, this one was so hard. (I recommend speeding it up a bit to 1.25.)

Their episodes are normally not like this one (I mean, who would put themselves through it if it was just constantly being put on the spot?) and they’ve had some very entertaining guests. It’s a good ride watching Debra discover and react to MK Ultra, mud flood, cryptozoology, Boston marathon, ufos and other fringe subjects.

Thanks! Amazingly, when I was scrolling through the episodes of this show (which I had never heard of prior to you mentioning it here) that exact episode is the one that piqued my interest. I’m already a good half-hour into it and fascinated by the interaction.

I’m very happy that you’re finding it interesting! 😊

btw he recently changed the podcast title to Into the apocalypse which is a great rockin’ name - I think it means he’s letting Debra a little off the hook, she’s been such a good sport throughout ... which is exactly what she shouldn’t be! It’s all so messy when you’re human. Cats are way better.
