Episode 50 – Don’t Drink the Cult Kool-Aid

| August 5, 2019

Weeeee’reeee baaaacckkk! This is the first episode of season three…and our two year anniversary…AND our 50th episode! YAY! To start off the season, we took inspiration from Midsommar and Once Upon a Time In Hollywood and decided to talk about cults. Cody starts us off with one of the most notorious cults, based out of Waco TX: The Branch Davidians. Chris then discusses a Russian cult that seems more cute than dangerous, worshipping an 90s cartoon character. Cody then takes us to other planets to meet Jesus and other deities. Finally, Chris tells a story of a lesser known cult out of Kentucky known as the Vampire Clan. After our stories, we have a call-to-action for a brand new segment, Creep of the Week. Drinks are Champagne and Prayers of Sinners Red Blend.
