The podcast went well. I was able to plug the urls for Resurrection After Rape, Pandora's Aquarium, RAINN and MaleSurvivor during the show. I think I nervously repeated myself a few times in places, which is annoying. The recording is now archived and is available at iTunes and online at:

Thanks to Gayle at Hope For Healing and the listeners who emailed questions during the program.

James, I thought you did great! My one complaint is the sound quality...but that's not your fault.

I could tell you were a bit nervous at the beginning, but you kept improving as you went along. You made a number of excellent points.

It's always interesting to hear the voice of someone I've only known online.

Well Done. I do hope they can correct the sound eventually...I've tried to listen to blogtalk before and sound quality is an issue.

I understand completely about calling abuse/rape for a human travail perpetuated on another human.

I read your story online and just wanted to say a couple things ... first how sorry I am that a wonderful night out you even mentioned being interested in someone at the time could take such a evil turn.

It totally clear that this was rape. It actually even makes me more incredulous about the victim blaming because hearing rape described from a male by a female, me being female, I can't understand even more how anyone can blame a victim. I just don't get it.

You mentioned how you would not hit a woman...it's awful because you know that is a very good trait that she unfortunatly used to be able to do that ... however being a trauma situation ... there was no knowing what a woman who had just drugged someone might be capable of perhaps committing. Self preservation during truama.

It's a dispicable thing ... all rape is.
