  • Rock Bottom to Romance: Pamela's Story of Love After 50
    Dec 11 2025

    Note to listeners: This episode contains discussion of domestic violence and suicidal ideation. Please use caution when listening.

    Pamela's Kismet Story: Finding Love After 50

    Pamela had hit rock bottom. In her 50s, she'd survived childhood neglect, spousal abuse, and a life that never seemed to go her way. With her children grown and a career path that no longer fit, she was left alone in the depths of a depression that seemed to have no bottom.

    In a last effort to forge a new path, she took a leap of faith. She moved across the country with a one-way bus ticket and no real plan. She wasn't looking for romance; in fact, she was adamant she never wanted to have a relationship again. But, in her journey to healing herself, she discovered the one thing that had always evaded her: true, deep, forever love. In classic Kismet fashion, her story is full of serendipity, fate, missed connections, and perfect timing.

    Pamela's story shows that your past doesn't define you, and it's never too late to find your person.

  • When the Universe Hijacks the Algorithm: The Matrix Glitch that led Jenny to her Husband
    Nov 13 2025

    A chance meeting on a sailboat in the Whitsunday Islands brought Jenny and Darryl into each other's lives. They were from different continents, and both were committed to other people. During their time in Australia, they got to know each other's friends and families, and their bond grew stronger. Jenny even invited Darryl and his wife to her wedding. For years, they kept in touch via Facebook updates and occasional texts.

    And then, they were both single. They remained friends, though they still didn't live in the same country...until the Matrix glitched, and everything changed.

    Sometimes, two people are just meant to be together. This episode explores how fate, timing, and the universe can align in ways that are beyond explanation. Kismet.
