  • You can find out more about author DJ Swykert and where to buy his books by checking out his website HERE

  • Words of the author at the end of his initial email to me back in 2018 when he first sent me this story that I want to include here: “There are a lot of treatment facilities and programs for drug and alcohol abuse, most are very expensive. But the program with the greatest success percentage by far is AA, and it doesn't cost a dime. I've been straight since 2006.”

  • Mr. Swykert, I want to just say here publicly - Thank You for sharing this story with me and the listeners. It has helped me, and I believe it will help others. I wouldn’t have done this show without your submission.

Episode 75: (12/25/2020)

  • In Episode 75 I sit down virtually with my friends John and Rose Benton and we chat about conspiracy theories, try to make sense of things, think of ways we can help promote truth and reality, as well as seek some positivity in it all. 

  • As I mentioned in the episode Four Seasons Curling Club at Fogarty Arena, a non-profit organization has been hit hard this year due to COVID19.

    • Many of us are affected and struggling. IF you are willing and able to help them keep their doors open and continue to offer sports, community, learning, and fellowship to the area, we would all appreciate it very much. Please do not donate money if you are struggling financially yourself.

    • You can find their gofundme page HERE

  • Videos to share and help kindly and gently nudge friends or family who may believe in conspiracy theories is available at thetruetruetruth.com

  • Another special episode that I wanted to include on this, the week of our 5th anniversary. 

  • Thank you for your 5 years of support, listeners. I appreciate you all so very much!

  • I'll have a couple more episodes before the new year for you as well - I promise, we'll be back to the storytelling!
