Episode Description from the Publisher

September 15, 2026This is different.For the first time on the Crack’D Open Podcast, Goddess Telly sits down for an extended telephone interview — and this conversation is about exactly what this platform was created for: giving people room to tell their own story, in their own words.Billy Ramsey, also known as Issim Dark, joins me for an unfiltered 1-hour-and-45-minute conversation about who he is beyond his current circumstances.We talk about Billy the man, the artist and the creative. We Crack’D Open his journey, his family, his experiences with the mental-health system, his current circumstances, personal accountability, freedom, consent, advocacy, and the medication/injection he says he does not want to receive.Billy specifically wanted his voice documented before that medication was administered.So I gave him the microphone.That does not mean everything discussed during this interview has been independently verified, nor does this episode attempt to diagnose Billy or determine whether any particular medical or legal decision is appropriate.I am not Billy’s doctor.
I am not Billy’s attorney.
I don’t have his complete medical or legal records.I’m the interviewer.And sometimes the job of the interviewer is to ask the question, get quiet and allow somebody to answer.This conversation also asks a larger question:What happens when a person says, “I need somebody to hear me”?This is Billy’s account of his experience.Listen to the complete conversation before forming your opinion.If additional conversations happen, Crack’D Open will continue documenting the story as it develops — including information or perspectives that may challenge what we heard today.No harassment. No threats. No contacting or targeting family members, medical professionals, facilities or other individuals involved based solely on this episode. Any legitimate concerns should be addressed through appropriate legal, medical, patient-rights or advocacy channels.This is storytelling.
This is documentation.
This is conversation.And this may be the first of many interviews like it.Welcome to the Crack’D Open Podcast.I am Goddess Telly.We sell our truth — not our soul.Hold, please.🎙️ Listen to the Crack’D Open Podcast on your favorite streaming platform.
