Hello kids, this is Risk, the show where people tell true stories they never thought they

dare to share.

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

back at content from our earlier years.

Sometimes single stories, sometimes whole episodes, keep in mind that years ago people might

have awarded things differently than they would today.

As always, the title of the whole series, Risk, is itself a content warning.

This week a story that Archie Jamjoon first shared on the podcast in March of 2016, here's

Archie now with a story we call The Crossroads.

I was coming home from a lunch shift and I opened the front door and I saw a long white

line of powder on the side table where my roommates and I kept our keys.

Now I kind of lived in a drug done at the time, so my roommate was like a hippie with a ponytail

and a lot of pot and my other roommate was Pat's.

And FTM that I had dated and then we broke up and he was really into the gay party scene.

So it didn't really shock me to see a line of coke, but I'm not going to say it was normal

either.

We did have a house rolled up, finders, keepers.

And I thought about it, there were a bunch of dishes to do in the kitchen and here is

a line of coke.

And this line of coke couldn't make doing the dishes very fun.
