Today I’m honored to have on the show for a third time: Child and foster care, religious abuse, child sexual abuse, trafficking, and satanic ritual abuse survivor and whistleblower, campaigner of historical child abuse, Founder of S.A.F.E. - Seek And Find Everyone abused in childhood, independent researcher and reporter, and someone I’m honored to call my friend: Dave Sharp

A little bit about Dave and what we discussed in his first 2 testimonial episodes he was on previously as a refresher or if you are new here: 

Orphaned at birth, Dave was surrendered to the care of the Catholic Church - a sanctuary that promised safety but delivered a nightmare of unimaginable horror. For sixteen harrowing years, from infancy to adolescence, Dave was not raised but trafficked across Scotland, shuttled between shadowy houses in Glasgow’s underbelly, where priests - men cloaked in sanctity - presided over rituals of pure evil.

Imagine a child, no older than six, locked inside a coffin in a moonlit garden. The lid slams shut. Stones rain down, each thud a mock burial, the air thick with terror as grown men laugh. This was no isolated incident. Dave and other children were taken to satanic sex parties - drugged, and violated by multiple predators, his screams drowned in a sea of depravity. These were not random acts of cruelty but organized atrocities, embedded in a network that preyed on the most vulnerable: children like Dave, with no family, no voice, no escape.

His abusers were not strangers lurking in alleys. They were the very guardians entrusted with his care - priests, nuns, and officials hiding behind collars and titles. They targeted him because he had no one to run to. The system designed to protect him became his prison, its architects his tormentors. Dave’s story rips the veil off a chilling truth: the safest place for a pedophile is the one with unlimited access to children.

At sixteen, Dave broke free, but the scars never faded. Flashbacks still seize him - vivid, violent memories of coffins, altars, and blood. Other survivors find him, drawn to his courage, whispering testimonies that mirror his own. Their stories are not coincidences. They are proof of a systemic rot festering in plain sight, shielded by respectability and titles.

But Dave is no victim. He is a disciple of defiance, anchored by an unshakable faith in Jesus Christ. In his darkest hour, he declared: “I am so grateful that God has chosen me to go out and show the evil that exists in Scotland and to tell the world to put His children first.”

Because of Dave, the darkness is losing its grip. Because of Dave, the voiceless are finding their roar. Because of Dave, the next generations will inherit a Scotland - and a world -

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
