  Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourself for a truly emotional journey. Join me as I sit down with the extraordinary Collin Hughes, a retired airline pilot, renowned voice actor, and passionate suicide prevention advocate who has experienced a life filled to the brim with triumph, tragedy, and resilience. Collin's ventures into the worlds of professional rodeo, aviation, and voice acting make for a fascinating story, but the real turning point came with the devastating loss of his 15-year-old granddaughter to suicide. Collin's heartbreaking tale is one of courage and strength. He opens up about his struggle to process this harrowing loss and how it has transformed him into a determined advocate for suicide prevention. We discuss the vital role of the QPR Institute's gatekeeper course and the life-saving power of understanding, empathy, and open communication. This story is not just about mourning; it's about action. We shine a light on the ugly truth of suicide, discussing strategies and resources for prevention, and most importantly, offering hope. Our conversation doesn't end there. Collin shares his experiences growing up in a loveless home and the importance of deep connections with others. We talk about the power of love and hope, even in the darkest situations. And of course, we delve into Collin's unique journey into voice acting. His experiences, investments, and future plans in the industry are truly insightful. So, buckle up for this heartfelt episode of True Crime Authors and Extraordinary People - it’s a rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you inspired and full of purpose.

I wanted to be a cowboy, a pilot, and an actor. I rode bulls for several years and competed against some of the greatest legends in the sport of professional rodeo. I am a retired airline pilot, and I am now a voice actor. After my bull riding days came to an end, I picked up a microphone and started to announce rodeos. I felt completely at home behind a microphone. This led to me trying to come up with a way to help people with the gift I had been given, but could never find a topic that I felt was right. I have always been a man who goes after what I want in life. However, on June 10, 2022, my fifteen-year-old granddaughter ended her own life and my life completely changed. I had faced difficult things in the past including the death of my oldest daughter to cancer in 2015. I had even faced death myself. But nothing had me prepared for the loss of my beloved granddaughter.

  S2 Ep 13. A Spiritual Examination of Charles Dickens' Masterpiece Author Rev Cheryl Kincaid

  —54 min

  Join us on a voyage through the heart of Charles Dickens’ timeless masterpiece, "A Christmas Carol," as we excavate the deep-seated Christian themes and social commentary woven into the fabric of the tale. Our guide for this journey is none other than Reverend Cheryl Kincaid, a seasoned Presbyterian minister and author with a compelling story of transformation borne out of an abusive past into a beacon of faith. The Reverend offers a unique perspective, making connections between Dickens' childhood experiences of poverty and the vivid scenes of hardship in his writings. Dickens’ own encounters with the underbelly of society profoundly influenced his work, and as we explore that together, we help to shed light on the powerful messages of repentance and redemption hidden within the tale of Scrooge. We take the conversation further, drawing insightful parallels from Dickens' era to our current social issues. Reverend Kincaid also shares her thoughts on the impactful role of female preachers in the Christian faith, an often overlooked aspect of religious history. In our final act, we turn our attention to the profound influence of God's touch, as recounted by Reverend Kincaid and other individuals who have experienced this divine intervention. We end our journey by pondering upon the timeless relevance of "A Christmas Carol," and how its lessons on repentance, redemption and social justice continue to echo in our present-day context. Join us, as we delve deep into the core of Dickens' enduring masterpiece and explore how its messages continue to resonate today.

  S2 Ep 12. Batman Rollercoaster: The Tragic Tale of Asia Ferguson

  —33 min

  Join us as we unravel the heartbreaking tale of Asia Ferguson, the 17-year-old who met an untimely end on the Batman rollercoaster at Six Flags over Georgia. This isn't just a recount of an accident; it's a harsh reminder of the absolute necessity of safety protocols and constant vigilance in amusement parks. Journey with us through the events that led to this tragedy - an innocuous act of retrieving a lost hat that spiraled into a disastrous outcome. We don't stop at recounting the past; we take the narrative further to scrutinize the actions taken by amusement parks following such dreadful incidents. Highlighting the chaperone policy implemented by Knott's Berry Farm as a case in point, we emphasize the pivotal role of supervision and communication with young visitors. We shed light on the significance of teaching children about safety and etiquette in public spaces. Through a gripping narrative, we underline the tragic fallout of ignoring safety guidelines and the life-saving importance of keeping curiosity in check.
