A message from Teresa Rodríguez - “I hope you join me for this very special edition of Stories Beyond the Headlines….when the unfathomable becomes a blessing.”It was one year ago when Teresa first began her podcast, Stories Beyond the Headlines. And it was precisely the Las Vegas massacre that claimed 58 lives and injured dozens more, that became the topic of that first podcast episode.

One year later, Teresa shares with you her intimate conversation with that young lady and her husband, Frank. They both feel it’s a miracle she’s still alive.
