Confession Corner: FAMILY DRAMA

Violet Benson
About this episode

Life is like a game of Jenga, you never know which block is going to make the whole thing come crashing down. One minute you're on top of the world, and the next you're wondering how you ended up in a pile of rubble. But that's the beauty of life, isn't it? The unpredictability keeps things interesting and makes every day a new adventure, or in some instances, a misadventure. 

Today, Violetta listens to brand new stories from Reddit. One talks about falling in love with his student ten years younger than him while the other is about a 70 year old grandpa who gets tangled in what’s probably the most unrealistic opportunity when he meets with a 20-year old babysitter one evening. The stories just keep getting wild so stick around and see how intense these stories can be.  


If you want to be featured on the next Confession Corner call Violet at 424-278-4268 and leave an anonymous voicemail!
