After recently recording an episode about a person who has disappeared, I realized during the interview, I have someone in my life that vanished. I give details about my friend Gary Brent Carlile who I have know for over 30 years. A few years ago, his phone number no longer worked and I have not heard from him since. I walk through the history of our friendship and strange events that took place over the decades. My hope is that someone listening to this episode can provide me details where Gary is.
