Summary
After watching Hell Camp and The Program on Netflix, we've been fascinated by the "troubled teen industry" and wanted to speak with someone whose parents had sent them to one of these programs. That's when we discovered that Phil, a frequent contributor on our twitch stream, had been sent to a troubled teen camp when he was 17, almost twenty years ago. We think you'll be surprised by Phil's final thoughts on his camp experience and what his relationship is like with his parents today. Hope you enjoy this week's conversation.
