I was traveling recently, and I got in this Uber and started
talking to the driver, and when I heard his voice I said, “Kevin, you need to
have a podcast!” I don’t know if he’ll do that, but he did graciously agree to
record that quick opener for me, just before I got out of his car.
438 – keep that
number in your head and I’ll come back to it in a minute.
By now you have probably figured out, this episode is not
going to be the typical type of episode where I talk with someone who has been
through some kind of unusual situation. I’ll be back here in a week with one of
those stories.
But today, you’re about to hear an episode from the Raw
Audio series. You may have heard me talk about the Raw Audio episodes in the
past, but you might not have actually heard one of these episodes unless you’re
a paid supporter of the podcast – which many of you are, and I appreciate that.
When you sign up to support the show, one of the benefits of
that subscription is the bonus content – these are the Raw Audio episodes.
They’re called that because they are truly raw, and real life. You’re gonna
hear actual 911 emergency calls, and the story that goes with that call. This
is about as authentic as it gets.
And you might notice that throughout this episode, you will
not hear any ad breaks. The Raw Audio episodes never have ads. And not just
that, but as a paid supporter, you won’t hear any ads on ANY of the What Was
That Like episodes.
If you enjoy this episode, I invite you to sign up to
support the show. Remember that number I mentioned a minute ago, 438? That’s
how many listeners are already supporters. They subscribe for a few dollars
each month, so they get to hear ALL the Raw Audio episodes and never any ads.
And right now there are 52 Raw Audio episodes live and ready for you to binge
when you sign up and become supporter number 439.
After you hear these three stories, I’ll come back in to let
you know exactly how you can subscribe, because there are a few different ways
you can do it, depending on what kind of phone you have and what app you use to
listen to podcasts. It’s really simple though. But for now, please enjoy this
ad-free episode of Raw Audio.
