Hostful: Sugar Friend

In this special host-only episode of Hidden Florida & Beyond, Frankie, Amelia, and John sit down to catch up, overshare, and accidentally learn way more about each other than anyone was expecting.  Amelia explains why she found herself trying to sneak onto the set of a television show filmed in Fort Lauderdale, reveals her plan to become an extra just to recruit a guest for the podcast, and shares the details of her upcoming European honeymoon adventure which sparks a discussion about last names, future kids, and how every family seems to have a completely different set of rules about how all that is supposed to work. The biggest surprise of the episode comes from John, who opens up about growing up in Gary, Indiana, surviving circumstances that could have taken his life in a very different direction, and why he's finally considering writing a book for his sons.  We also discuss some childhood shoplifting stories, gambling in Malta, and why Frankie believes everyone is secretly calling him an idiot in professional emails.
