0:13.1	and not of any specific organization unless otherwise stated. Hello, friends, and welcome to episode number 67 of the Latter Day Lives podcast. My name is Sean Rappear. I am the host of the show, and thank you for joining us again this week. Before we get into the conversation this week, I got an interesting email and I thought
0:38.7	I'd follow up on it here. One of our listeners reached out to me asking if I was available to
0:45.7	entertain at Christmas parties this year. And I never really thought about mentioning it on the show,
0:51.0	but obviously we've talked a lot about how I'm a comedian. And since I don't
0:54.6	normally do advertisements, maybe I thought I'd advertise for myself. If you are looking for
1:00.6	entertainment this year, for a company party or a corporate event of any kind, something for the
1:06.0	holidays, this is a lot of what I do. And I'm already somewhat booked up for December, but still have some
1:12.6	open days. If you're interested in booking me as a comedian, and I can share with you some
1:17.7	examples of what we do, it's an audience participation, comedy and improv show. You can reach out to
1:23.7	me through the show here, Sean at Ladderday Lives.com. That's S-H-A-W-N at Latterday Lives.com, or just reach out to me through the show here, Sean at LadderdayLives.com. That's S-H-A-W-N at
1:29.0	latterday lives.com. Or just reach out to me on Instagram or on Facebook. I would love to come
1:34.1	and work with your company. It feels really awkward pitching something for myself.
1:38.2	The show is really all about my guests. So, but if you are interested, please feel
1:43.3	free to reach out to me and I can tell you
1:45.0	how we could set that up. Okay, on to the show this week. I'm going to give a disclaimer at the
1:50.1	beginning of the show that we talk about some very heavy things. Obviously, being a church-focused show,
1:55.6	it's nothing inappropriate, but it is the true life of my guest. Carrie Friar has the most incredible story, but it is a story
2:04.4	of addiction and ultimately recovery and peace. And we do, we don't go into any heavy details of
2:11.6	the addiction, but we do talk about some pretty, pretty grown-up stuff. So it's one that we
2:17.3	recommend a little bit of caution
