Marli and I saw a Black Veil Brides concert in California and ended up meeting four members of the band. Though we got barely any sleep, the two of us were rather frantic throughout the trip there. It’s a memory I’ll never forget. I arrived at Marli’s house in the evening. We slept for about three hours before her alarm woke us up. We got dressed, sharing an unspoken excitement that made me feel like I was a thousand feet tall with my head in the clouds but my feet still grounded. When Marli,…

She uses many different examples throughout the book to help prove this point. Not only…

And I am not just talking run of the mill, fun to think about conspiracies, like Aliens built the Pyramids or that Elvis is alive and well and playing shuffleboard with the ghost of Colonel Sanders in some Florida retirement community. No, I'm talking over the top nonsensical bullsh*t straight out of the annals of Alex Jones' sock drawer. You can…
