Internet Strangers: The People Who Showed Up When Real Life Didn’t

from Unspoken · host Kate

In this spoken word poem, Kate Earley shares a raw, heartfelt tribute to the internet strangers who showed up when real life didn’t.Through chronic illness, disability, and the quiet ache of being misunderstood, there were people online—sometimes from thousands of miles away—who offered more comfort, more presence, and more care than anyone else.This episode is for them.For the old man in Texas with the white beard and the camel hat. For the late-night DM. For the comment that made her feel human.Copyright ©2025 Kate Earley Music: Where is my Love by Micha PhillipWritten: June 8, 2025
