Happy New Year!

Welcome to 2026, everyone, and with it, the beginning of Season 2 of Abiding Hysteria. We have some real treats of guests coming up this year and some incredible stories to tell, so I hope you will enjoy listening to these stories as much as I did when recording.

I wanted to take a moment before posting the first episode to thank each of you for being part of this little community. Sometimes working on this podcast can be a little overwhelming emotionally, especially telling the tough stories that really need to be heard. But knowing you are here waiting for the next episode keeps me coming back. So thank you for everything, I cannot wait to see how we grow in the new year!

The uncut first episode of season 2 will be posted soon, then release publicly next week!
