Audio alert: We were trying something new, and Todd accidentally had a compressor going. Its not bad, but its noticeable.
Brian Trimble had it all. He had a great job, and a fiancé who adored him. He also had MS though. He and his fiancé, Randi were married in a beautiful storybook wedding. But as they began their married life, Brian began feeling sheltered because his wife, Randi was as he put it over protective of him due to his MS.
He became close with a coworker, Blaine Norris, who had dreams of becoming a horror movie director, and he had a script for a movie, and was determined to film it. But, he needed money, which Brian had. Randi put the brakes on it, saying that the money they had in the bank was a nest egg in case Brian's MS ever got bad to the point he wouldn't be able to work. She also forbade Brian from even being involved with the movie because the location had no cell service. Blaine then went into serious debt for the movie, which cost him his marriage.
Brian became angry, and Blaine needed money. The two hatched a plan that wound up being proof that you don't want to combine horror movie lore with reality. Join us for this fucked up story.
