## Resource

Ken and Megan open with a story that should have been everywhere but was barely covered. Phoenix law enforcement rescued 36 missing teenagers in just three weeks and almost nobody reported on it. They break down why these kids go missing, who is targeting them, how grooming works online, and why the breakdown of the family unit is at the root of all of it. Megan shares a personal story about a five year old who showed up at her door alone with no way to reach her mother for an entire weekend. They get into the two female teachers caught having a relationship with the star quarterback at Centennial High School and why society treats it completely differently than it would if the genders were reversed. Then a UTV head on collision near Lake Pleasant sends nine people to the hospital and Ken breaks down who is liable when there are no lane markings on a dirt road. They close out with a warning about unlicensed Botox injections happening in people's homes in the valley and why you will never recover a dime if an uninsured unlicensed injector disfigures your face. Plus exciting news about their nonprofit youth center launching a music program for teens in partnership with Alice Cooper's Solid Rock. 00:00 - 36 Missing Teens Rescued In Phoenix 01:30 - Why Was This Not Headline News 03:00 - The Breakdown Of The Family Unit 05:00 - Grooming Online And How Kids Go Missing 07:00 - Sponsor Message 08:00 - Two Teachers Caught With High School Quarterback 11:00 - Why Society Treats It Differently When Women Do It 13:00 - Everything Is Sexualized And Where Is God 16:00 - Porn Addiction And The Dopamine Trap 19:00 - UTV Head On Crash At Lake Pleasant 21:00 - Who Is Liable On An Unmarked Dirt Road 24:00 - E-Bikes On Scottsdale Road And Kids With No Supervision 26:00 - UTVs Are More Dan…
