| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome to another episode of the Preacher Boys podcast. On today's episode, |
| 0:05.1 | I'm joined by Micah Helton. Micah's mom, Amanda, was on a prior episode of the show titled, |
| 0:10.1 | I had to divorce my church escaping domestic abuse in the IFB. If you haven't listened to that episode yet, |
| 0:15.6 | it's definitely going to add some valuable context to the conversation that me and Micah are about to have. So if you haven't |
| 0:21.3 | heard that yet, pause this episode, jump over there, listen to that episode. I think it's maybe |
| 0:24.7 | three or four episodes back and give that a listen before jumping in. If you don't do it, |
| 0:29.5 | you'll probably still be able to figure way out through the episode, but it definitely adds |
| 0:32.7 | much needed context to our discussion. And before we get into the episode, I want to remind you guys that I have a |
| 0:37.7 | brand new show called The Good Story Podcast. I'm interviewing creatives, experts in their field |
| 0:42.9 | when it comes to marketing, branding. I'm talking to filmmakers, producers, musicians, artists, |
| 0:47.7 | anyone working at telling stories on a professional level. And I definitely hope you guys will |
| 0:53.2 | check out that episode. I just |
| 0:54.7 | interviewed Steve Berkowitz. He's a producer of hit shows like Outdoddoddard and Extreme Makeover |
| 0:59.7 | Home Edition. And we have a great conversation about reality TV, that industry, and what the |
| 1:04.9 | future is for that. And why people are drawn to stories like reality TV shows have to offer. So if you guys appreciate my voice |
| 1:13.1 | on this show, you appreciate the perspectives that I bring on this show, then please do me |
| 1:17.5 | a solid and check out the Good Story podcast. With that said, let's head over into the interview |
