@jw07 - THANK YOU! I didn't know you could find the previous versions so easily. I went back two versions just for good measure. All I did was download the zip file for the plugin and upload it to my site and boom, all of the shortcodes are now back to being players for each episode again. If I had known last night it would be so easy I would have hopped on it then. I knew it was just shortcodes showing and put a note up about it and contacted Libsyn. I was going to wait on them, but honestly so far I've had a few issues with them. Everything is working now, I just won't update that plugin for a minute.

Whew, deleted the plugin from my cpanel and my site is back. I just don't have the podcast player on my site anymore, but I'll try to find an older edition of the plugin and see if that works. Basically, I just started a thread to talk to myself, lol. I was too freaked out and impatient to wait for actual help.

Can anyone here help? I've never had this happen before.
I can't even reach my website anymore. I'm guessing that maybe I can go into my Hostgator account and find the plugin and delete it, but I kind of use it on the site. So I don't know if there's a way to get in and fix the offending line 154 or if it's a matter of starting over with the plugin, or if I can revert back to before the update.

@Phoebe - It is so damaging how they push people to avoid help, and if they must get help, just don't mention the most dysfunctional and abusive thing in your life, them.
I'm glad you like my story. Unfortunately it will end soon, though maybe I'll give updates from time to time. I am trying to research how to interview and record remotely over Skype and such so that I can continue the show in some way. I make no promises, and I totally get not wanting it to go away. I've been disappointed by all of my favorite exjw shows that went away too.

Ran into my brother at a concert; first time I've seen him in years......
by dubstepped inmy wife and i went to a concert on friday night.
there was a friend of ours there doing security, and she happens to be an exjw too.
she sent me a message on messenger to inform me that my brother and his wife were at the show, not knowing that i'd be there too.

@DOC - Lol, it is evident, holy spirit was with me that night at the Bush concert. The only thing is that the holy spirit seems to push me toward atheists and agnostics all the time. But, I must follow it's leading so as not to grieve it terribly.

RT, I won't pretend that I always had that courage, though honestly this is the first time I've seen anyone. It's weird, as I used to come across dubs all the time when I was one. Now I almost never see them.
As far as how to come off well, I'd say that what I did was about all one can do. I walked up, head held high because I knew I was being the better person, and just waved and said hi. When they looked away, rather than begging them for attention I just laughed at their ridiculousness, said oooooohhhhkay, and walked away laughing. It honestly is somewhat humorous. I don't think there's much more to do.
Oh and I walked up because I didn't feel anxious. There's nothing wrong with anxiety getting you, you feel how you feel. In this instance I just felt empowered and went for it. Had anxiety been strong, maybe I wouldn't have and that's okay too.

You're very welcome njws! You've been around here long enough to know so much more than most, but hopefully something strikes you in a new way if nothing else and gives you added insight.

Oh, no shame in my game. I don't let it make me feel bad at all. I was proud to be a free human saying hi to another human that isn't free. I figured that I knew what would happen and was right. Like I said though, this was good for me. It was my little chance to take power back. They want you to cower, to disappear, to feel shame like you're a horrible person. Nope, not going out like that. I will be a good person and will be me and if they don't want to participate that's fine, but any time I see people like that I'm going to make them shun me and face what they're doing. It feels good, not bad, to me.

My wife and I went to a concert on Friday night. There was a friend of ours there doing security, and she happens to be an exjw too. She sent me a message on messenger to inform me that my brother and his wife were at the show, not knowing that I'd be there too. So I told her where we were at and she swung by and pointed out my brother and his wife. There they were, just across from us, with really few people in the way as it was before the show started.
I looked at my wife and said that I think I want to go say hi. She thought it was a big deal, but it didn't feel like one to me. She agreed to come with and we walked up to them at the side. We appeared in front of them, I waved and said hi, and they waved at me and said hi...............for a moment. It was fascinating to watch their process. It was friendly, and almost in the exact same moment they both turned red and then looked to their right.
I laughed, said oooooohhhhhhkay, and then we walked back to our spot on the other side. Immediately, literally as soon as we got back, before we had a chance to say anything to one another or process anything one of our new friends since we've been out appeared out of thin air behind us. Her smiling face was the first thing we saw, and we talked to her about normal things for a minute. Then I saw another new friend of ours coming up the aisle toward us, and he stopped and talked to us. It was so interesting, like the universe said "here are your real friends" immediately after this experience. It felt good.
Afterward we had a chance to talk, just my wife and I. I felt so amazing. I just made them actively shun me. For a split second their humanity kicked in, and they turned red because they know deep down how messed up this is. Then the indoctrination kicked in and they looked away in disgust. I never really had to shun anyone in person that I cared about, that has to be hard. JWs expected the shunned ones to be shamed and never see them again. I'm not going out like that. I've made it clear since day one that I'm still here and human, and I exhibited my humanity, as did my wife, while they had to go into shun mode in stark contrast.
I feel for my brother and his wife. That has to be super hard to do to people in their face. It's one thing to walk to a different aisle of the super market, but to have someone say hi in a pleasant manner and then have to be a total douche to them has to cause some dissonance. I hope it did. Having to shun one of my brothers, who just disappeared to another state so I never did shun him in person, was super hard for me. It felt messed up once I got healthy after many years, and I reached out to him because I couldn't even do the shunning thing when we were worlds apart forever. I just can't imagine if he had approached me in person. Then again, I tried reaching out after my brother was dfed, so I guess I never was the best shunner anyway because ultimately, I cared about people. I'd love to know what my brother and his wife were talking about over there after we walked away.
Oh, and shame on him and his wife for being at a concert that even apostates would go to, lol.

You're all welcome. It is hard to relive this stuff, not only when I think about the episode for the week, but when I write it down, and then again when I record it and say these things aloud, particularly that last one. It was a dark hole to go down again.
It's okay though, because it helps other people. And this week I get to contrast it with something more positive and provide helpful resources.
Such is the yin and yang of life. Have to take the bad with the good.
