From Rococo Punch and iHeartPodcasts comes The Turning: River Road — a jaw-dropping true story about faith, control, and the power to break free.

At just 13, Lindsay Tornambe was chosen by the leader of her family’s cult for a “special role,” becoming one of the youngest Maidens of the River Road Fellowship in rural Minnesota. After a ritual that bound her and other girls to the cult’s leader, Lindsay spent more than a decade trapped in isolation and abuse — hidden from the world.

But one day, she and a friend made a daring escape that sparked an international manhunt and brought the entire cult crashing down.

The Turning: River Road is a powerful story of survival, courage, and reclaiming freedom.

The Outlaw Ocean is an anthology podcast that plunges you into the vast and often lawless world of the open seas. Today we're featuring an investigation from S2 called The Shrimp Factory Whistleblower. 

In this episode, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ian Urbina joins Josh Farenello. What started off as a dream job, slowly revealed itself to be a nightmare. Josh moved to southern India to oversee a shrimp-processing plant, but it soon dawned on him that he’d been really been hired as an American face to “whitewash” a forced-labour factory. The largely female employees were effectively trapped on the compound, routinely underpaid, and forced to live in inhumane, unsanitary conditions. Over several months, Josh meticulously gathered evidence that he brought to the Outlaw Ocean team for this exclusive exposé.
