The Peripheral & Aftershocks
My episode has aired! 79: Cursed (peripheralpod.com) So, it finally happened! My episode has found its way to the internet, for better or for worse. I received some positive and negative feedback. It’s been a struggle. For me, the over reaching reason that I did the podcast was because I wanted people to know the…
