I remember seeing her on the screen there.

And then you reached out to me more recently.

And so thank you so much for coming on.

And my first question for you is just, how are you doing?

What's your life all about right now?

Yeah, I think it's fair to say you've had a pretty unique set of life experiences.

You know, growing up in an abusive home where you were extremely isolated, being in prison, which is another sort of set of very different social circumstances, I would assume, from the outside world.

And then going into this period of your life where you were out of prison and you had this massive surge of media attention and online activity.

fame slash infamy, whichever way you would characterize it.

Um, and now do you feel like you're in kind of a new chapter or has that sort of attention on you persisted?

I am wondering like sort of how, how that is now.

That must just be incredibly intense.

And I think, you know, I think a lot about sort of what your relationship with social media must be like because, you know, you can you remind me how and I know this is sort of part of your story, but how old are you chronologically speaking?

I'm 34.

Okay, you're 34.

Yeah.

So, you know, these technologies were around when you were younger.

I'm 43.

So like, I really was like the last age of person to like grow up without social media.

And like, I didn't have a cell phone until after college.
