It’s CULT WEEK, bitch!
This week, we’re diving into two pretty terrible cults. And yes, we checked, they are literally cults.
Maggie covers NXIVM (pronounced like the heartburn medication – Nexium) and how it’s really not cool to brand people with your initials. If this sounds familiar to you, it’s because NXIVM made the news over the past few years for being a creepy and terrible sex cult that tried to pass itself off as empowering but was really a façade to help get the sexist and misogynistic leader Keith Raniere to coerce a bunch of rich women into having sex with him. Seriously, it’s gross. Also, Allison (NOT Alex) Mack was in it.
After talking about all the gross sex, Dreia covers a fairly recent and unknown cult – called The Baltimore Cult or Queen Antoinette’s Cult. It doesn’t have a totally official name, but it is an official cult – just ask anybody. When Ria Ramkissoon, a teenage mother, felt lost and afraid, she turned to Toni Sloan for support and guidance. Toni welcomed Ria into her cult with open arms and things got very dark after that. Not to give anything away, but this is one of the saddest stories we’ve covered on the podcast and it will hurt your feelings in a big way.
If you’re into cults and supporting Britney Spears, we suggest you give us a listen. Don’t forget to tell all of your friends about our show – because we are also into MLMs!
