4 APR 2025 · They're BAAA-AACCKKK! And so are we with a re-release on one of the wildest cults we've covered yet!
Have you seen the colorful ads enticing you to come experience "China before Communism" through the art of song and dance at a Shen Yun performance? What about the far-right wing newspaper "The Epoch Times" that preaches misogynistic, racist, homophobic and prejudiced views? They're both owned by the dangerous cult of Falun Gong which Ash tells Caitlyn and Lindsey about this week!
Caitlyn co-hosts https://www.pnwhauntsandhomicides.com/, a podcast about true crime, the paranormal, and all kinds of spooky sh*t in the Pacific Northwest! Lindsey is the co-host of https://www.yeoldecrimepodcast.com/, a podcast about spooky, strange, and surreal stories of the past. Support your local indie podcaster and check them both out today, wherever you listen to podcasts!

Unfortunately the file is too long for the public feed so we had to break it into 2 parts. And in the next section of this mega-sode, we have former co-host Ali and cult survivor and friend of the podcast, Chauntee Pitts!

14 MAR 2025 · Ash Here! We asked our wonderful https://www.patreon.com/TSFU, if they wanted us to wrap up what Common Sense Media's Stephen Morgan called, an "unbalanced portrayal" that "may leave viewers with more questions than answers," https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27896931/ (TCCoNG).
Six and a half of them said yes, and when I saw the trailer for Hulu's upcoming HIT PIECE, ahem, "mini-series" https://www.google.com/search?q=good+american+family&oq=good&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqDwgAECMYJxjjAhiABBiKBTIPCAAQIxgnGOMCGIAEGIoFMgwIARAuGCcYgAQYigUyBggCEEUYOTIMCAMQABhDGIAEGIoFMgYIBBBFGDwyBggFEEUYPDIGCAYQRRg8MgYIBxBFGDzSAQgxMzA5ajFqNKgCALACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:0998497d,vid:3_QlAf1rRGE,st:0, I voted the other 3.5, and you all, in! Recaps of the FINAL (honestly tho TBD with ID, because it's them... ammirite??) episodes coming next week! And in the meantime, recap yourself on Natalia's whole story from birth, until where we left her at the end of season 2!
We've compiled all 7 Natalia episodes into 3 more compact episodes, for your listening pleasure. Starting with Ash and Megan from https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/give-us-morgue/id1520089727 !
