158: Dirty John: The Real Terra Newell Is Here!

By Be Here For A While

Dirty John is the true story of an Orange Country family who was terrorized by con-man John Meehan.  It produced a top podcast and Bravo TV Series by the same name Dirty John.  We are thrilled to have the real Terra Newell on the podcast today! She was (spoiler alert) attacked by John and was able to fight him off and kill her attacker and she lives to tell the story and warn women about the signs to look for in men like him, how to fight off an attacker, and her life after the horrific incident.  She goes deep into the psychology behind "love bombing" in relationships, which is what John used to trick her mother, the isolation tactics, his lack of eye contact, and how you should never trust someone with a life story that has too many bizarre or fanciful scenarios.  She teaches woman to use their legs when they are being attacked and the crazy way that the TV show "Walking Dead," helped save her life.  She's a survivor, has an amazing sense of humor and strength and we know you're going to love her and her story.  **Also, Rachael opens with a hilarious and ridiculous encounter with Kathy Hilton and Paris Hilton last weekend.  This is a MUST LISTEN TO EPISODE!

Terra mentions two important services if you feel your safety is in danger:
**If you're afraid your internet usage might be monitored call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233
**Peace Over Violence 24/7 LA Rape & Battering Hotline 626-793-3385 / 310-392-8381 / 213-626-3393
