Episode 209: Tony Ortega

Listen Later

Tony Ortega Joins me for an extra long episode to discuss what it's like covering a group like Scientology for so long. In this episode, we discuss:

  • Why the Scientology/Nation of Islam alliance isn't so unusual
  • What kinds of retaliations the Church has made against him and those closest to him
  • What we know about the FBI's Trafficking case against the Church
  • Why the media was reticent to report on the Danny Masterson allegations
  • Are there still people in "The Hole?"
  • Where is Shelly Miscavige?
  • And much more...

    • Special Guest: Tony Ortega.
