Hey everyone, it's Ben.

So I asked his sister.

I said, okay, can I you tell me about Nandad being in prison?

And Shreys got kind of big and said, I didn't know you kids knew about that.

I don't know if I should tell you.

And I said, well, my dad's dead.

You can't hurt him.

And you know, Mimi's dead.

You can't hurt her.

So she's okay, I'll tell you.

That's from next week's Fresh Story on The Secret Room. But today, it's October 23, 2016,

and I'm outside enjoying a sunny fall day. The weather was a lot like this exactly 60 years ago in Budapest, the day the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 rose. In honor of that anniversary,

Dalia and I wanted to bring you this encore presentation of the Secret Room. I'm Dan Ham. And I'm

Dahlia Beda. We're your hosts as we navigate the deep waters of humanity. And listen to the

stories no one ever tells. You entering the secret room yeah so this happened

last week on the podcast well does your dad or mom have any secrets uh okay um i don't know i guess

they're secrets um so i could go ask yeah Yeah. I'm going to go take this challenge. I'm going to go to my mom,

and I'm going to say, Mom, tell me a secret for the podcast. I sounded excited, right? After all,

Dalia's father revealed that he was a badass. He sold pot to the Bee Gees in the 70s. So cool. But later, the

reality of asking my mom for a secret started to sink in. What was I in for? She wasn't in Tokyo

in the 70s, so I knew she couldn't have been Dahlia's dad's drug mule. What if something

got out of the bottle I could never put back in? I felt I might be on dangerous ground.
