Hello everyone and welcome to another Shinaramoram Stories podcast. I'm your host John DeLinn. It is January 10th, 2025. Happy New Year. I'm over the moon excited, thrilled to have the band back together. We're getting the band back together. We have Lauren Johnson Matthias. Did I get the order right of your name? You did. You got it right.

Lauren Johnson Matthias from Hidden True Crime. We've got Megan Connor. Hey, Megan. Hi. From third verse

slash midlife, what? Residlife Revolution. Midlife Revolution. And we've got Binder Mom,

dear friend, Mindy Caldwell.

Hi, everybody.

And today we are going to be covering the brand spanking new book that just hit the

bookshelves, The House of My Mother, A Daughter's Quest for Freedom.

Sherry Frankie, and of course, Sherry Frankie is the daughter of Ruby and Kevin Frankie.

And this is an amazing, powerful book.

I'm just going to start off at the top.

I recommend.

Everyone needs to go buy this book right now.

I went in a little bit skeptic wondering whether it was going to be a good book.

Lauren, do you agree?

I agree.

I didn't know either.

I went in with a very open mind and I couldn't put it down, which is I think why we're all able to do this today,

because it just came out like two days ago, and we have all read it cover to cover.

I think, Megan, I think you bought your airfare like yesterday, right?

I literally bought my airfare yesterday morning, yes.

Ned flew here.

Yeah.
