The Dominatrix, An Abandoned Child & The Rick Amato Show

Ok...So my cell phone rings this past Friday afternoon, displaying a number that I don't recognize.

When I answer, on the other end is a man's voice with a heavy accent talking at a clip of about a hundred miles per hour.

He 's talking excitedly about a TV station in Holland called Royal Dutch TV, a professional dominatrix, a woman looking for her mother who gave her away at birth, Amsterdam's red light district...and in the midst of all... he somehow manages to say something about San Diego.

After the dust settled and I was able to make better sense of the conversation, what I discovered was:

The man calling was from a TV station in Holland that was helping a 50 year old Dutch woman find her mother who had given her away at birth. The woman's mother once worked as a dominatrix in Amsterdam's red light district.

The TV station had received a 'credible tip' that the mother now resides in San Diego and they are all flying (a TV crew and woman searching for her mother) to San Diego to try and find the mother...aka: the former dominatrix.

He was kindly asking if the woman could be a guest on my radio show on Monday evening.

So that is our show in hour #1 on Monday night and maybe...just maybe...we can help re-unite a mother and her daughter.

Whichever the case, this will go down as one of the most 'unusual' shows we have ever done.
