This is Scott, and you're listening to What Was That Like?

Every other Friday, I have a guest come on and talk about something they experienced that was extremely unusual.

Today's Friday, and we're in between new episodes.

So I want to tell you a story.

Today I'm going to tell you about Jennifer Strange.

Sometimes the allure of a cheap thrill and the promise of a small prize can be enough to make us suspend

disbelief. We sign waivers, we laugh at the minor discomfort, and we tell ourselves that the

worst case scenario is merely embarrassment. But sometimes, when the lighthearted facade of entertainment meets the dark reality

of human physiology, mistakes become terrifyingly real.

In the case of Jennifer Strange, this involved a contest, a Nintendo Wii, and a Sacramento radio station that was horribly negligent.

You know, when I started this podcast, it felt like I had to become 10 people overnight.

Producer, editor, marketer, designer. It was a lot. And I kept thinking, I wish I had someone in my

corner to help me figure this out. That's why I love today's sponsor, Shopify. It's like having a
