What had happened was… I agreed to go on a couples safari thinking it would be romantic. You know—sunsets, elephants, cute hats, and luxury tents with mosquito nets and wi-fi. But what I got instead was a lion’s stare, a stalled engine in the middle of nowhere, and a pack of wild dogs with nothing but bad intentions.In this story set deep in the South African bush, I find out the hard way that nature has zero interest in your relationship goals. It’s all dust, danger, and a safari guide named Mapalo who might be the calmest—or most emotionally detached—human I’ve ever met.This isn’t just a near-death experience. It’s a lesson in humility, terror, and how quickly romance turns to panic when the food chain suddenly gets real.Listen. Subscribe.

What had happened was… I signed up for a luxury cruise, not a floating panic attack in the Aegean Sea. In this sun-soaked, wave-smacked episode, I recount the chaotic journey from cruise ship to Santorini via tender boat—a ride that felt more like survival training than sightseeing.What should’ve been a quick, scenic transfer to one of the most iconic islands in the world turns into a salty mess of rough waters, screaming passengers, stroller panic, and the very real question: is this thing going to flip over? The crew? Unbothered. The waves? Disrespectful. The memory?

What had happened was… I was just out grabbing overpriced juice, minding my business, when the universe did a full reroute. One unexpected turn. One awkward conversation. One woman in oversized sunglasses and a scarf pulled just-so over her head. Couldn’t be.

What had happened was… it was supposed to be a peaceful afternoon at the park. Just a dad and his son, a Bluetooth speaker, and the sweet sounds of Stevie Wonder filling the air. But when a seemingly harmless song choice sets off a chain reaction of subtle stares, unsolicited parenting advice, and a performative mother who just won’t quit, things spiral fast.In this story about joy, judgment, and the racialized tension hidden beneath polite parenting spaces, we sit with one father’s simmering restraint—and the moment he decides to stop swallowing his words. Stevie still plays in the background, but the melody turns into something deeper.This isn’t a story about confrontation.It’s about choosing when not to make others comfortable.Listen. Subscribe.

What had happened was… I went to therapy to deal with stress—panic attacks, tension, just trying to hold it together. What I got was a therapist who crossed the line, asked questions he shouldn’t have, showed up in places he didn’t belong, and made himself visible just enough to keep me scared—but never enough for anyone to stop him.When I confronted him publicly, I expected justice. What I got was silence.This is a story about power, manipulation, and being Black in a system that still asks for patience when all you’ve got left is fire.Based in fiction. Rooted in reality.

What had happened was… I served aboard a U.S. Navy submarine during the height of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. I was good at my job. Kept quiet. Kept my secret even quieter. But all it took was one fainting spell, a kind Navy doctor, and the wrong sailor overhearing too much—to put everything I’d built at risk.This is a story about silence, surveillance, and survival. Of what it meant to be proud to serve, even when you couldn’t be proud of who you were.There’s no scandal. No justice.

What had happened was… I agreed to babysit for a friend while she went to a concert I wouldn’t sit through even if I was paid. The plan was simple: cartoons, bedtime, maybe a little wine with my boyfriend after the kid fell asleep.But then the baby monitor turned on by itself. A lullaby started playing. The toddler sat up and pointed at something that wasn’t there.What followed was a night of locked doors, ghostly footsteps, strange drawings that vanished by morning, and something that copied the baby’s voice from behind a door.This story is panic, paranoia, and survival in a house that did not want us in it.
