Episode 19: Christie Collbran Rinder

December 7, 2020 By Mike Rinder 53 Comments

  This week Leah and I speak with my wife, Christie. I will add the link as soon as it is live. While there is always a lot of interest in me, Christie has her own story. She is much more than simply my other half. Her entire immediate family, just like mine, disconnected from her when she began to question things and tried to communicate this to them.

And it has a population of almost 270 million (more than 10 times Australia at 25 million and 1000 times Western Australia at 2.5 million).

Blog Problems — Update

December 5, 2020 By CW Guy 9 Comments

  As you may have noticed, there have been some issues in the last couple of days with the blog. They may continue for a bit while things are sorted out. Please have patience.
