0:00.0	Welcome to Heart Starts Pounding, a podcast of Horrors, Hauntings and Mysteries.
0:09.9	I'm your host, Caitlin Moore.
0:12.6	Last week, I told you the story of Sandra,
0:15.8	who in 2011 started dating a man who called himself David.
0:20.3	David was isolating Sandra from her friends and family until she ultimately disappeared in 2015.
0:27.0	If you haven't listened to last week's episode, I highly suggest you do so before diving into this one.
0:33.0	It ended with Sandra's ex-husband Mark
0:36.0	learning about another woman that David,

0:58.0	This was a disturbing pattern that he had been repeating for nearly 20 years.

1:12.4	but while we won't have a new
1:13.8	episode we are launching an Apple subscription for the show. This will let you
1:18.1	listen, ad free, get the extra monthly bonus episode and the archived episodes all from within the Apple
1:24.9	podcast app. It's called Heart Starts's Pounding Premium and the sub will be
1:29.6	499. They wouldn't let me round up to $5 so it is an entire cent cheaper than the
1:35.3	based Patreon tier which gives you all the same stuff. I know a lot of you don't use
1:39.8	Patreon but you may still want the extra content and ad-free listening so stay tuned for
	...
