Unlike the site where the confessions are completely anonymous, those in this video are spilling their guts right in front of the camera. So imagine my surprise when I discovered that one of these people was <a href="http://josephweisenthal.com/">my husband</a>. Yes, I watched this entire video with my stomach in a knot, waiting to see what he would confess, but alas, he merely says “Um, awkward?” That’s it. No confession. No secret. Oh well, truthfully, I’m sort of relieved.</p> </blockquote> <p>This is funny, because when I went in front of the PostSecret camera they kept talking about how I could tell them any secret, and that nobody would know. And like 5 people I know randomly saw this.</p> <p>They didn’t end up using my secret, which was something to the extent of my having more right-wing/fascist beliefs than I let on.
