Hi, we had the opportunity to interview a former collaborator and producer of Tim Ballard's named Ryan Fisher, who has courageously been speaking out against Ballard and in defense of Ballard's victims.

We are going to include his full interview here as its own episode because of how important we think what Ryan has to say is.

And due to the gravity of Ballard's

ongoing actions and the nature of what is happening. Also, we have released this interview in video

form if you'd prefer to watch it at our new YouTube channel at someplace underneath. As all the shows at

LPN have been dispersing from the one main

channel into their own channels to battle the algorithm monster, we've been quietly uploading

But yes, you've been sharing this story, like you just said, it is so incredibly important.

It's because I think it's one of the most important parts of this season because it's happening in real time.

I would love to just briefly, I know that you cover this a lot already on the show you do with Cara Borell, but would you mind just giving us a brief, just history of like how you, you know, Tim Ballard?

Sure. Yeah, no problem. So back in about 2011, 2010, I met Tim at a research conference that was going into fringe, Mormon, LDS, doctrinal theories.
