Welcome to the global phenomenon, surviving the survivor,

where we bring you the best guests in all of true crime.

Here's your host, Emmy Award-winning journalist,

Joy Waldman.

What's up, SDS Nation, and welcome to another episode of Surviving the Survivor, the

podcast that promises to bring you the very best guess in all of true crime and no change from that no deviation from that whatsoever today as we dive into a difficult story because of course it is about a missing young child and that child

also has autism and we are believe it or not supposed to be joined we've got two of

our three best guests by a third

best guest who is a member of the STS community who reached out today and said hey

I'm an expert in autism and I said come on the show so STS Nation if you've got

expertise please let us know surviving the survivor at gmail.com. She has very impressive credentials in that world from an Ivy League

institution, the University of Pennsylvania, so we are hopefully going to have Heidi Moraine join us but

about the story the mother of missing teen Sebastian Roger said that she heard noise coming from her teen son's

room on the night that he disappeared from his bedroom.

It's been exactly one month today since Sebastian vanished from his family home in Hendersonville, Tennessee. It's a Monday, so I'm not trouble reading today.

The search continues for Sebastian who is believed to have wandered off in the middle of the night or did he? They say he was barefoot with a flashlight and all alone. The cage and Navy has stepped in. Of course they were just

working on the search for Riley Strain, but according to some reports they've

been told to stand down so we will try to dig and get to the bottom of this.

Let me introduce the best guess.

David Thomas, no relation to the Wendy's guy, I'm assuming, but this guy is much more charismatic.

He is a PhD and an LMHC. What is an LMHC? You got a lot of letters after your name.

Right, LMSC is licensed mental health counselor, so that's the licensure in the state of Florida.
