This week, we talk about some of the new technology that’s recently been released in the latest version of one of the most popular mobile phones available, some software that’s been scanning most people’s mobile media for years now, and some mobile phone alternatives people can look into if they’re opting for privacy above all else.  As always, we encourage our listeners to do their own research and make their own decisions.

Episode 194: The Legend of Doc Benton

In this episode, we talk about the legend of Doc Benton, a story that has been passed down for generations about a doctor who was trying to, or actually did(depending on the version of the story you hear), discover immortality!  The story has several different variations, and we’ll share several of them and also talk about whether or not Doc Benton ever really existed or was just the figment of several people’s imaginations created to explain mysterious happenings of the time.  It’s a sad, disturbing, terrifying, sensational, and fun story, so get ready for “The Legend” of Doc Benton this week on The Homewrecker Podcast.
