From Business Owner to Crack Addiction: Mason Cross Opens Up

Mason Cross joins the podcast to share his brutally honest story of addiction, recovery, chemsex, identity, and rebuilding his life. Growing up bisexual and living what he describes as a “normal life,” Mason first got into cocaine at 23 years old. What started as recreational use quickly turned into a 4–5 year cycle of addiction while still functioning day-to-day, going to work, and maintaining relationships. After getting sober and successfully building a business, lockdown during COVID pushed him back into drug use — this time spiralling much deeper into crack cocaine, smoking and eventually injecting it. In this episode we discuss: • Functioning addiction and hiding drug use• Cocaine and crack addiction• Chemsex culture and LGBTQ nightlife• Not having sober sex for 4 years• Relapse during COVID lockdown• Injecting drugs and the mental spiral of addiction• Contracting sepsis and returning to drugs straight after hospital discharge• Cravings during sobriety and staying clean• Transitioning into an OnlyFans creator• The reality of influencer culture and LGBTQ culture today• Recovery, identity, masculinity and rebuilding life after addiction This is one of the rawest and most honest conversations we’ve had on the podcast. #Addiction #Recovery #Chemsex #CrackAddiction #LGBTQ #OnlyFans #Podcast #MentalHealth #Sobriety #DrugAddiction

Fake DNA Results, Lies & Betrayal | The Ryan Hampson Story

Ryan Hampson shares his heartbreaking real-life story of betrayal, fake DNA results, paternity fraud and losing the child he believed was his daughter. After being told another man was the father, Ryan moved on with his life — until months later his ex-partner returned claiming a DNA test proved he was actually the father. Wanting to be a dad, Ryan stepped up completely. He rebuilt the relationship, bought a family home, supported his partner financially and embraced fatherhood. But after 18 months of raising the child as his own, everything came crashing down. A second DNA test revealed Ryan was not the biological father. A third independent test confirmed the devastating truth. Ryan later discovered the original DNA paperwork had allegedly been forged, and the testing company stated they had never carried out the tests at all. In this powerful podcast episode, Ryan opens up about:• Paternity fraud • Fake DNA test results • Betrayal and heartbreak • Losing contact with a child he loved • Civil and criminal court proceedings • The emotional impact on men and families This is one of the most shocking paternity fraud stories in the UK and raises serious questions about trust, family law and justice.
