There is no easy way to articulate what it feels like to realize that someone you once trusted, someone who sat in your home, who shared meals with you, was secretly behind the very horror you were trying to escape. I'm Andrea Gunning. On this season of Betrayal, we meet Carl Bryant. Carl thought he was living a normal drama-free life until the messages started. You broke me. You do not deserve happiness. You will have hell to pay. Cyber-stocking, emotional abuse, swatting, extortion, impersonation. This was a shocking case of harassment revealed in an even more shocking, secret confession tape. This is very calculated, very sick. When I have jealousy and kind of sociopathic about it, if it was legal to paralyze them from the waist down, I would do it.
Someone was after Carl. You have someone who had intimate knowledge of someone's life and used it against them. For nine months, someone infiltrated every aspect of Carl's life, threatening to ruin him. Do you ever worry about your reputation? It was extortion threatening the release of private photos. And then, the text threats escalated. Carl's stalker suggested he was willing to take it all farther. Every piece of evidence pointed to one man. I thought I was losing my fucking mind. But if I did do it, I just don't remember. But every piece of evidence was a lie. I have never seen anything like this before.
The obsession became insane. The question everyone was asking, why would anybody do that? He wanted me to crawl to him. I am scared out of my mind. He was not going to stop unless we stopped him. This into betrayal season 6, starting on September 24th on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You know the saying knowledge is power?

You know I'm always looking for simple ways to make better choices, especially when it comes to food lately. I've been using wise code the ultra process food detector. It's become one of my favorite apps. All you have to do is scan a product and it instantly tells you if it's ultra processed. If I want to dig a little deeper, I can also see the nutrition quality and overall health quality before I buy it. It makes grocery shopping so much easier. I've got little kids. They're picky eaters, but it really allows me to find brands that are going to taste good for them, but also make their bodies happy. You can download wise code on the app store and give it a try today. Sometimes a road of life goes a little off road and the 2026 Nissan Rogue is ready for anything the day brings.
