Ep. 136 The Branch Davidians Pt. 1: Ruby Ridge May 04, 2020

Show notes

We're celebrating 1,000,000 downloads by kicking off a series that's been a long time comin'. With all the craziness surrounding the Branch Davidian's compound and violent end, it's important that we take a look at why the Feds were all shaken up. Just 9 months before everyone in America would know the town of Waco, TX, another standoff was underway. Join us as Paige takes Mando and Andrea through the Weaver Family's story and we learn why everyone was so on edge.

Bonus Episode: The Tiger King and I and Us Apr 27, 2020

Show notes

We're back this week with a breather episode before we launch into one heck of a series. But before everything goes nuts next week we figured we'd sit down and talk about the documentary series Tiger King. Tune in to hear about our theories, roasts, and all about Mando's former arch-enemy.

Ep. 135 Timothy Leary Pt. 3: Charles Manson's Airbnb Apr 20, 2020

Show notes

We're back with the final installment in our series on the late scientist/cult leader Timothy Leary. How did the Harvard Psilocybin Project transform into an international free love cult? What crazy stuff did the group get into? What happened afterward? We answer all of these questions, and several more nobody asked, in this episode. Strap in!

Show notes

We're back this week telling you to "turn on, tune in, and drop out". Join us as Armando takes Paige and Andrea through one of the most interesting lives ever lived. Half Manson and half baked, Timothy Leary's story is one hell of a trip. So put on your coolest shades and your "uncle-iest" denim jacket. We're diving deep, baybee.

Ep. 132.5 The Bunker: Lil Baby Rocks Apr 01, 2020

Show notes

We're back this mid-week with a minisode on a cult that is absolutely INSANE. Join us as Paige takes Mando and Andrea through the lives of a man who trapped his followers deep underground for years. Also, we all might be able to relate to being in a bunker these days. Crazy times.

Ep. 132 Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh: Mmm SO GOOD! Mar 30, 2020

Show notes

We're back this week with an episode on a very eccentric, and equally evil, guru by the name of Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh. Join us as Paige takes Mando and Andrea through the story of the guru's group, Dera Sacha Sauda, and his illustrious career as a movie star, artist, musician, and car technician. Yep. We'll get into it.

Bonus Episode: Audible Grits ft. Kristal Adams Mar 20, 2020

Show notes

About a week ago we recorded this Coronavirus Madness-style bonus episode for y'all. We had no clue how bad it was going to be. But, the jokes still work, baybee. We hope this brightens up your Friday a bit. We're joined by Kristal Adams, host of the podcast Black Card Rehab, to talk about the disease, immune systems, and weird college experiences. If you need a good laugh, and I'm willing to bet you do, this is perfect for you.

Ep. 130 Shincheonji: Fire Type Jesus Mar 16, 2020

Show notes

Join us this week as we cover the very topical Korean cult Shincheonji. They've made headlines for their part in the spread of Coronavirus but their story goes back further and includes more feet than you probably would've guessed. Listen in as Paige brings Mando, Andrea, and you up to speed on the devious diseased cult.
