Killers, Cults and Queens

Christmas Special, the bizarre case of the Love Has Won cult


Listen Later

Ho ho ho! Christmas has come early thanks to Cheryl and Nikki Druce. High on the spirit of crimbo, they present an unreleased episode from season one… the pilot! So get in, we’re heading back 7 months to learn about the crazy Love Has Won cult. A tale of mother and father gods, colloidal silver and glitter covered desiccated corpses… what could be more festive than that… But who was mother god, and how did a potentially well intentioned community turn into a police raid that went viral? Cheryl and Nikki are going to find out. Expect baby Nikki and Chez, tails of swingers hotels and a shocking discovery. 

This episode contains graphic details of violence, mental and physical abuse. This episode also comes with a trigger warning for those who are currently living with or recovering from an eating disorder. It is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
