Episode/Guest Search
Looking for an episode (which may be deleted) that took place during the early days of the show. The guest told a story about how his family abandoned him when he left for boarding school. If my memory serves me, he was from Chicago and during middle school, an elite place out east offered him a scholarship.
Long story, short, he took the scholarship, but had to come home because his mother passed away a few weeks into the school year. He says this is the last time he saw his family. He later came home for Thanksgiving break and no one was at their apartment. The next door neighbors told him that the family had moved away. No phone call, no address, etc. The guest went on to talk about how he utilized friendships to stay in school and out of foster care. Does anyone else recall this episode or the guest name? It's been racking my brain for years.
