2026 Update: Julia
Show notes
In grade 8, Julia was bullied so badly by a group of girls that she changed schools without telling anyone. Soon after, the girls from her old school showed up at her house and rang her doorbell. She didn’t answer it. For the past 20 years, Julia’s been wondering what those girls wanted.
Ten years after the release of this episode, we check back in with Julia, to hear how her life changed in the aftermath of the episode.
