Speaker 1: I felt like I was in a horror film. It
Speaker 1: just was so spooky. I remember that very viscerally. I
Speaker 1: just remember having chills in being both scared and confused
Speaker 1: because the way that she presented it to me was
Speaker 1: sort of in this calming, assured way, like, oh no,
Speaker 1: it's better now, because she said I was Anita one
Speaker 1: and now I'm Anita two.
Speaker 2: That's Nina Saint Pierre reliving the haunting moment in which
Speaker 2: her mother revealed an entirely new identity.
Speaker 1: I just didn't know how to make sense of it.
Speaker 1: It was really frightening. But then what was I to
Speaker 1: do but just trust this new old person.
Speaker 2: I'm Danny Shapiro and Welcome to the eleventh season of
Speaker 2: Family Secrets. Thank you Family Secrets family for holding space
Speaker 2: for these remarkable stories to be told. I can't wait
Speaker 2: to share ten powerful new episodes with you. Stories of
Speaker 2: submerged histories, fractured identities, and deeply hidden truths. Welcome to
Speaker 2: season eleven, which drops on Thursday, November seventh. Here's Not
Speaker 2: Real Airs, recalling the phone call that changed his life.
Speaker 3: I'm out of the blue. One day, I wake up
Speaker 3: to a voicemail from a new York number, and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: I wonder what that is. And I listened to it,
Speaker 3: and it's him. It's Roy, my father, the first time,
Speaker 3: of course he's recalled me, and maybe even the first
Speaker 3: time I've heard him say my name.
Speaker 2: And Zara Chowdery on the inflammatory close quarters of her home.
Speaker 4: There's this funny thing about how when somebody controls them
Speaker 4: out of oxygen you can have, then everybody is going
Speaker 4: to fight to breathe. And that's how it felt in
Speaker 4: their household. We were all sort of fighting to breed
Speaker 4: and live a little longer, and sometimes fighting each other.
Speaker 2: I hope you'll join me and my extraordinary guests for
Speaker 2: this new season of Family Secrets. Listen to Season eleven
Speaker 2: of Family Secrets starting November seventh on the iHeartRadio app,
