This week we're covering another one of the most requested cults we've been asked to cover in our "stint" as a podcast. Known for producing anime for over 20 years and having some of the most insane beliefs of any "major religion", Happy Science is the perfect subject for a Cult Podcast two part series. In part one, Mando takes Paige and Andrea through the life of Ryuho Okawa, President of Happy Science. Get ready for poetry, anime, and our favorite new character: Dr. Lube!

Ep. 86 Universal Medicine: Street Tennis Apr 08, 2019

Show notes

We're back with a real cult this week after our April Fool's Day romp. (Allegedly.) And what better way to bring us back than with one of the most requested cults that's ever graced our email inbox. (Allegedly.) Paige takes Mando and Andrea through a group who's fresh off of losing a lawsuit and their leader who's soon to be fresh off of losing a game of street tennis to Armando. (Allegedly.) Also, we're going to be completely honest with you, the last 8 minutes are entirely about Australian spiders and it's both hilarious and terrifying to anyone who hates spiders. (Not allegedly. Definitely.) So, get your flamethrowers ready. We're headed to Australia, baby.
