  • This week we bring you a special episode of Alone at Lunch. Normally, we bring you discussions of feeling like the odd one out with comedians, authors, content creators, and more individuals of whom you’ve heard and can follow their careers. This episode, we decided to switch things up and present an anonymous crazy story told first hand by the person who lived it. 

    The individual in this episode, who chose to be known as “Trip,” talks about the true life events that brought him to The United States of America. 

    It is important that we provide several trigger warnings including discussions of suicide and illegal immigration. This podcast and podcast network do not condone or support the actions discussed in this episode. However, we believe that stories deserve to be told, especially when they ring so true to that “Alone at Lunch” feeling. 

    We will be continuing the anonymous stories special episodes, so if you have a story to tell or know someone who does, please email us!
