Dax kicks off this Armchair Anonymous installment with Monica, noting that the theme of family secrets already claimed its first casualty before the show even began — one caller was so rattled by the prospect of sharing their story they simply didn't turn up. It's a telling opening beat: family secrets occupy a peculiar emotional space, simultaneously compelling and corrosive. Dax frames the episode generously for the audience — your own are hard to enjoy, so lean into other people's. With that permission granted, the stage is set for an hour of genuinely spectacular disclosures.
