Hey folks, this is Risk, the show where people tell true stories.

They never thought they dare to share.

I'm Kevin Allison, and every Thursday we release these special episodes where we look back

at content from our earlier years. Now, this week, it's an

episode that premiered in February of 2013. It consists of one story by Sarah Bell called Between

Friends. I should give a little warning that typical of these stories that we recorded, you know, 12, 15 years ago,

some of the language is not the kind of language that you hear so much anymore.

In the 90s and 2000s, especially there were words, well, for example, the word queer,

we still have that one.

That one was a badge of honor

that people still use today. She uses a slang term for lesbian that I haven't heard in a while,

but I remember that just like queer in the 90s and 2000s, It was sort of a badge of honor term of like,

people in prior decades used to use this term insultingly,

and we cool people are reclaiming it now.

But in 2025, I haven't heard that word used that way in a while.

And this is a messy story, not messy in the telling,

but messy in that there's a lot of consent violations of various kinds, actually. So just a

heads up about that. So without further ado, here is Sarah Bell now with a story that first appeared

on the podcast in April of 2013. It's a story we call Between Friends.
