Ep. - 1422 - WHAT TO WATCH THIS WEEK WITH KATE CASEY

Darolyn Bellemeur was adopted in 1972 through a Jewish agency in Riverside, California. In her twenties, determined to learn the truth of her beginnings, she navigated closed records and bureaucracy until finally receiving a three-page letter from Vista Del Mar Child and Family Services in Los Angeles. 

 

That letter — a simple packet of typed pages — unveiled a world of family history: a sixteen-year-old Jewish mother from Tennessee, a grandmother who controlled the adoption decision, siblings she had never known, and a teenage father of Irish descent. For the first time, Darolyn was given glimpses of the people and circumstances that shaped her life story. From those fragments, she pieced together clues, calling cemeteries, chasing down a last name, and finally connecting with her birth parents.

Ep. - 1420 - LOVE IS BLIND: PART ONE

For years, viewers of 19 Kids and Counting watched the Duggar family portray a picture of traditional Christian values. But behind the reality-TV smiles was a darker story of manipulation, control, and hidden abuse. While sisters like Jill and Jinger Duggar have spoken out, this week’s guest offers a perspective we’ve never heard before. 

 

Amy Duggar King—known to millions as “Cousin Amy”—was there nearly every day, woven into the Duggar world. But even as she navigated the toxic dynamics within her famous extended family, she was returning home to her own secrets and struggles. For years she lived under labels she didn’t choose, branded “Crazy Cousin Amy” while quietly enduring coercion and gaslighting. 

 

Now, with her new book Holy Disruptor, Amy is ready to share her story fully and honestly. In this conversation, she opens up about what it was like growing up surrounded by deception, how she learned to reclaim her voice, and why disrupting toxic cycles is not rebellion—it’s sacred.
