About This Podcast
Book 2 and the weirdness continues on from Book 1: Death. Money. Incest. Rape. Lies. Secrets. A Ghost. 1970s. Hawaii. Hippies. Child Labor. Fake Aunt & Cousins. Jewish camp. Just a normal life of a white kid, raised by white parents in a white culture. It was normal to me, but only weird as I look back on it. You might find it funny, sad, shocking, strange, unbelievable or even relatable.
