Fans often remark that when they were in a bad place, they tune into Distractible or their YouTube channels to laugh and find comfort in hard times. To escape for a bit. For me it was losing my beautiful Rosie suddenly and traumaticly in August 2021. She was my copilot and my best friend. She was the reason I became a dog trainer. She changed my life. There aren't words to describe what she meant to me. We hiked, we did dog sports (disc was her favorite), we played endless games of fetch, and learned new tricks together. She even had a role in a movie about mutating frogs (Strange Nature)! I thought we had more time together. She was my whole world and got me through other tough times. I needed her comfort more than ever in the wake of her loss, making the hole in my heart all the more apparent. I couldn't be trusted alone after her death and stayed with friends for a month and a half. I have so many memories laying in bed at night watching the boys playing GTFO and Raft together. It was nice to feel something other than shock or agony. Power Wash Simulator was also a favorite for being so soothing. Around that time I started listening to the podcast. Bob's Fridge was a revelation and any chance I got I played it for friends. Each day the boys and their content helped me get through one more day. And eventually I got through enough days that I was past the worse of it. I will forever miss Rosie and I still have grief attacks from time to time. But I now have a new normal and a new dog Mooch who's made his way into my heart like he was a missing puzzle piece. Thank you Mark, Bob, and Wade for helping me get through the hardest loss. What did the boys help you get through?
Through a car crash where I lost ten feet of intestines, almost bled to death, tore my shoulder, damaged my tailbone permanently.

I appreciate it, but my intestines are forever ruined. And the blood loss was so significant I had to put off a heart surgery and ended up waiting so long it got worse and nearly killed me again. Now I have to get a pacemaker.
