What a brave and courageous woman she is. I admire her humility, her vulnerability and her honesty. What a remarkable woman she is.

what is the name of the book?

I love my dog unconditionally... I don't care if she's being difficult or smelly or wrecks something... true love!

I don't like how they're trying to act like fame is a burden and that people can't criticize famous people.people don't have to act like famous people are excused of their behavior because they're famous and somehow have extra burdens.nobody has to just not have an opinion on famous people. This interviewer should be just as concerned about the regular people who went to Carls church who got hurt or affected m.he seems that only the celebrities that went there matter

The best part of this interview was the end… which is truly the beginning! ❤GBU

god is not real. Sharing his journey in the industry can help others make better decisions but he's been using that and religion for political reasons.

I don't think I could've of stayed if somebody cheated on me

I was in a film when I was 19. It definitely affects the people around you in your life. I made the stupid mistake of sharing the info and it spread around. I soon became a curiosity and in a couple of instances it affected people I wanted to date because of the friends of friends telling them. I cant imagine what these people go thru. Mine was just more of a cool adventurous dare and I knew the woman. Porn acting has got to make them dead inside, it's pretty sad.

Laura is speaking so close to my heart when it comes to church culture. Their story as painful as it had been for their family. It’s also so beautiful. For Carl choosing to be honest with his brokenness. Giving room to working honestly to build a true deep foundation of trust with Laura & the kids.

Poor guy. Feel sorry for him and his life. Hair makes it even worse.

Thank you for your vulnerability ❤

Very honest interview.

She’s a superhero

I love how articulate he is

I have so much respect for Laura. Thank you for the interview. 🙏🙏

He was a good bottom.

Staying is only worth it, when they’re doing the work.. bc they CHOOSE to. When you’re dealing with men that are broken like this, it’s like a ticking time bomb for that relapse or cycle to start over again. Again, choose your hard. But don’t be a martyr for your husband nor family when somebody chooses not to change something.

It’s so fascinating to see people complain about how someone does something on their own channel. Saying “yeah” a lot is a common form of engaging during conversation. If you don’t like it, why continue to watch

what he said is true about dating in the industry. My wife was in the industry when we started dating and quit just before our marriage. We would go out on double dates with her co-worker friends. I tried to accept it but couldn't after a few years so I was honest with her and she understood and quit the job when I proposed to her and now she is a wonderful mother of our children. If anyone thinks it is hard/ not possible to leave that job, it is possible.

Thee key to this story of his infidelity is that he admitted to his cheating episodes. Without THAT all the work is just pointless. And remember that ppl usually want to keep things a secret forever yet go to couples therapy to "fix" marriage. She didn't have to stay. She could stay. And biggest part HE gave her truth to make her own decision upon.

I have been watching Carl and Laura on their podcast. As I don't agree with the doctrine of the church they came out of. I can relate so much. My husband stepped outside of our marriage and it literally killed the person I used to be. I wasn't fortunate enough to afford therapy but I have read and researched so much about infidelity to help me heal. Also God played a huge role in my healing. I am still healing. I chose to stay in my marriage and she is right when she said you lose people when things like betrayal happens. Even family. I really hate when people judge others for staying in their marriage. I used to be that person who would say I would just leave. But sometimes it's not that cut and dry and sometimes it is. It's been a really lonely journey for me for sure. But that being said no matter what I think about Carl's teachings as a pastor I praise God that He woke him up and he did the work as a man. That's very commendable and it still shows God's grace and sovereignty. I pray Laura and Carl continue to heal and grow in their relationship with each and God. And I thank them for sharing with the world because it's sometimes hard to share intimate details. ❤❤❤

The part about god gave me goosebumps.

Interesting story. There a lot of porn stars that are just fine with their career. The fact that he finds Jesus and now feels sorry for others is his problem. He is not well and perhaps will never be.

Such a high value woman!

Did he ACTUALLY just compare relationship with a woman to an old dog and identify the animal as his wife too? Is it an inner reflection point expressed verbally as the experience to himself ? Why is unconscious reflection an active thought pattern in the process of speaking out loud right now ? Could he be anticipating getting a new puppy at the appropriate moment? it is crazy to replace the OLD dog. the existing loyalty is a great quality and 13 is like end of life but perhaps the age he is willing to settle now. It’s basically the end of the road here so the crazy thought could entail a new puppy but just not one to replace the current dog since death is close enough he will wait out for now ? Like this guy is really one word absurdity . Like he probably know the gender , breed, etc for the next puppy he has in mind for sure 👍 go you! Crazy is like an untamed mental health catastrophe in the form of an acceptable statement which truthfully is never a tamed desire here it’s an ongoing one and that’s really very clear to any sensible viewer here . Probably because there’s a sense of depriving oneself of true desire , self, intention. It’s nice he cares for the age of the current dog tho so that’s helpful

Thank you for giving hope to so many people.

The worst interviewer 😢😢😢😢😢😢

The "yeah' part is a little bit annoying tho. But this is a powerful podcast

52:40 to 52:55 Carl said he would buy the guy beer if he comes to his church…Yooo that’s a red flag! He said, “how could you do that to get someone to come to church” and he said “I didn’t”…You just said you made the trade SMH 🚩🚩🚩 The gospel doesn’t teach us to enable! That’s why we need discipleship! That is NOT THE GOSPEL!

Wow I clicked on this while I clean do laundry / I never done porn/ didn’t expect to hear messages of god bible ♥️💫 very powerful podcast !! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR STORY!

Carl….I pray you have the courage to OPENLY discuss pornography. Women like me (who’s high profile Christian marriage was destroyed by it), know what you are dancing around it. And the men in the church DESPERATELY need your story. Quit dancing around it. It’s not gum at 7/11. So appreciate your miracle.

As proven by Kamala Harris, people in this line of work can get to high places.

This was an excellent watch and very inspiring

This by far the most transparent interview should be viral this woman is godsend anyone who doesn’t take time to listen to her is a fool she’s a beautiful soul and the in the quote she said, I said, feel it all the time don’t make lifelong decisions in the moment you’re in if it’s not the right moment because you’re regret them for the rest of your life tough that’s tough

I appreciate Dans newfound wisdom, but until he owns up to the fact he’s a shit poker player, and all his money is from his father, I have nothing for him

Thank you so much this is me right now

Amen. That’s what religious values teach husbands and wives.

What’s he hiding behind the beard😂

People hate this guy, but low key they want his life.

Lds

Get peter north on!!

This is crazy should have sex with anyone like this

Yes he has been in therapy, but I really don't think that "Many" Porn Modles would be successful in other fields, just because they have a Good Porn Carrer.....

Actions have consequences that’s life

Psh

One of the most sincere interviews of Carl, I guess👏

The fact that he has committed such acts, hiding behind the Church, lying to thousands, I can’t see in him much remorse, for the woman & others he hurt. King David didn’t use addiction problems… Only God sees his heart. I could not trust anything coming out of his mouth. His body language speaks volumes & that hat is his covering, can’t see his eyes…the eyes speak volumes. This organization is all about $$$$$ He’s a real PERFORMER! God knows it all.

I feel like once you quit once it just gets easier and easier to quit on your marriage

Life will only be better for the man.

Really awesome interview. I ran security in strip clubs in Kansas City for almost 10 years. I became emersed in the sex industry. I met many porn stars and did security for them when they would feature at our clubs. Also seeing pornography all the time. I became very numb to everything. I never had a stable relationship during that time. Looking back on it every guy wanted my job and thought it was cool. I never discuss it with friends and family now because I’m embarrassed of that time and my behavior. This guy is such a nice, smart guy. Glad he is away from pornography. It just destroys everyone that gets involved in it.
