Gilli delivers a direct and unapologetic message to the PBCC. What does the Rapid Relief Team really represent? Compassion or control? Care or cover-up? When abuse is disclosed, we don’t see protection. We see intimidation. We see legal threats. We see attempts to silence. Cheryl’s case exposes exactly how far they are willing to go to protect their reputation over people.The doors may be closed but the truth isn’t anymore.#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #PBCC #exclusivebrethren #rapidreliefteam #oneschoolglobal #csasurvivor #cultawareness #cult

https://gofund.me/6968e14d7 - Save Get A Life Legal FundCheryl lays bare the emails, the refusals, and the protection surrounding Alan Drever and the PBCC and why transparency, witnesses and recording were resisted at every turn. Cheryl speaks directly about Alan Drever, and about the testimonies and allegations involving members of his family, including Arden Bond and his sister, Rhonda. Cheryl draws chilling parallels to the Epstein case, exposing the same familiar structure: power protecting power, truth buried under influence, accountability avoided, and perpetrators walking free while victims are forced to carry the damage forever.

This video is addressed directly to the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church. Steve Simmons has been a fierce advocate for Cheryl in her fight for justice, and in this message he says what the PBCC continues to refuse to say themselves. While serious and well-documented allegations remain unanswered, the church has chosen silence and that silence is deliberate. The PBCC has continued to push out carefully staged videos projecting compassion and moral authority while refusing to deal with the harm done in its name. Steve tears through that hypocrisy and calls it exactly what it is: image management instead of accountability. He ends with a clear warning — stop producing any more pathetic videos and deal with this matter. Until there is truth, responsibility, and action, the PBCC has no credibility and nothing worth broadcasting.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/hc82o3a83ceti9htsbd13/Steve-Simmons-video-for-Lawsuit-against-Cheryl.mp4?rlkey=ov4njpfuq2lwqar6ttm1bx86p&st=o0zzehlj&dl=0

The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church’s charitable arm, the Rapid Relief Team (RRT), has launched a legal SLAPP action against Cheryl and the Get A Life podcast. Filed in California, the lawsuit accuses Cheryl of copyright infringement over RRT’s “Cookie Bird” cartoon mascot. The claim is false and dishonest — and it serves a far more serious purpose than protecting a cringeworthy cartoon kookaburra.Alan Drever, the Maple Creek PBCC elder accused of sexually abusing and trafficking Cheryl, is also an RRT volunteer. He appears publicly outside Maple Creek Town Hall representing the church and claiming to act in the name of Christian “care and compassion.” After Cheryl obtained a recorded confession from Alan, she wrote directly to PBCC leader Bruce Hales, asking the church to take responsibility for the abuse she suffered inside the cult. No response came from the “Man of God.” What came instead was a lawsuit.The action targets Cheryl personally, but it also targets the Get A Life podcast and by extension, every former PBCC member who has spoken publicly through that platform.In this episode, Cheryl and Richard walk through the full timeline, backed by documentation. This includes the recording of Alan Drever’s confession, disturbing historical links involving Dean Hales and Lloyd (Merrick) Grimshaw, and guest contributions from cult expert Anke Richter and ex-PBCC member Steve Simmons, who offer their own unfiltered assessments of what is unfolding. This episode lays out how a corrupt charity responds when a survivor asks for accountability and how the legal system is abused to silence a whistleblower.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/j1u7egpyqlwgdvneg9mht/45000-160.mp4?rlkey=oysxsiryu449uoeok8pt148ey&st=agnftau0&dl=0Link to Legal documents- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Vs70rXTmfJBscBPX1gDnIR8mFfUl2cRi/view?usp=sharingLink to Cheryl's podcast on Blackballed- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4_mcx-f4LQCanadaland article- https://www.canadaland.com/plymouth-brethren-christian-church-members-under-rcmp-investigation-for-alleged-sexual-abuse-in-saskatchewan/Link to Mick Dover Audio- https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09-15/exclusive-brethren-plymouth-alleged-abuse-nda-four-corners/105762208Article to Michael Bachelard death threat- https://archive.ph/XMRyVTo share your story or be a guest on the show, email [email protected] a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:[email protected] address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace

We continue Jason’s story as he leaves the PBCC, then makes a second, painful attempt to go back in, not because the system deserves another chance, but because the pull of family connection is deliberately weaponized by this calculated, coercive cult. The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church knows exactly what it is doing when it severs ex-members from their families, then cloaks that cruelty in polished lies for the outside world. After 159 podcasts, the pattern is unmistakable: every survivor tells a different story, but the damage is always the same. In Part 2, Jason exposes the degrading, psychologically brutal treatment he endured at the hands of the priests as he tried to “make it work,” revealing a culture steeped in control, humiliation, and fear. We confront the disturbing, negligent absence of sex education inside the Brethren and the lifelong consequences that silence creates. Jason also recounts a volatile, confrontational meeting with their so-called “Man of God,” Bruce Hales, following a horrific accident in Argentina, laying bare the cold indifference, unchecked authority, and moral rot that sit at the very top of this organization.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/dzf986zda0plxt5e5tlsy/45000-159.mp4?rlkey=0ca9wclo1txumlo50ihoqfnv6&st=gzdhtdd0&dl=0To share your story or be a guest on the show, email [email protected] a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:[email protected] address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace

Jason Pittock takes us on a journey around the globe, from the leafy London suburbs of Bromley, to the windswept coast of Argentina, and then onward to the very heart of darkness, Bruce Hales’ personal interrogation chamber, inside the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church’s Australian HQ. Here the so called “Man of God” with the help of his evil sons, “smashes” Jason, in an attempt to render him subject, blindly obedient, and thus “useful” to the cult. This proves to be a momentous and decisive moment in Jason's life, but not in the way that the Elect Vessel intended.But no spoilers – dive right into this visceral and shockingly candid interview to see what happened next.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/s6w00wcxs7j6hejhzl7n2/45000-158.mp4?rlkey=dpx1nmuach8d5o5s7m8g9b6z7&st=304t2nry&dl=0To share your story or be a guest on the show, email [email protected] a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:[email protected] address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace

Content warning: This episode contains discussion of suicidal thoughts.In this episode, Jolie Cooper shares her courageous story of growing up transgender in the Exclusive Brethren/PBCC. What does it mean when you feel like you were born in the wrong body, and how do Brethren priests react when they find out? Jolie, who became a married father with four children, always felt like a woman inside - but it took decades to find her path to being true to who she was, and like so many former members she lost everything when she was withdrawn from. Jolie has no regrets though, and in this inspiring episode she describes how she found her tribe and built a new life as a woman outside the PBCC.Please note: Get A Life offers a non-judgemental place for all leavers to share their stories. We encourage listeners to keep an open mind and listen to what Jolie has to say, and consider her journey with the love and compassion we all deserve.

They tell you to give more, host more, sacrifice more while leaders flaunt wealth without apology. In this video, Richard breaks down why insiders are quietly pulling back from entertaining, how status and money have reshaped the culture, and why a pair of $3,300 Louis Vuitton shoes says more than a thousand sermons.

Richard does a very thorough dive on what really happened to cause this exposure. Are the Hales boys to blame? Is it time to really look at who is causing this catastrophe? #plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #exclusivebrethren #oneschoolglobal #rapidreliefteam #ubt #cultescape #cultawareness #cult

When the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church announced an unprecedented Woman’s Seminar recently, we were stunned! After 200 years of profound misogyny and exploitation, was the Handmaid’s Tale of the Real Housewives of PBCC finally coming to an end? Were women actually being allowed to think, to speak, to make decisions for themselves? Would there be female trustees and directors of ecosystem entities?What would the theme of the Woman’s Seminar be? Empowerment? Autonomy? Trusting your feminine instincts? Equality? How to say NO to abusive men? Equal pay in the workplace? Protecting yourself and your children from the PBCC’s ubiquitous pedophiles? - or perhaps a more scriptural theme – the Great Women of the Bible – Esther, Ruth, Deborah, the Queen of Sheba?Sadly, the vaunted “Woman’s Seminar “ was mostly about…wait for it…The Great Men. Yes, you read that right – a Woman’s Seminar all about THE GREAT MEN. How women should utterly submit themselves to these exulted demi-gods, how just a look from their Beedy eyes should reduce every female to trembling submission, and thrilling recollections from a sister of being kissed at age 12 by the lecherous and despicable JTJr.This revolting seminar, highly scripted and doubtless written in its entirety by men, exceeded our worst conjectures. Listen as Andrea, Cassie and Cheryl rip into this heinous piece of coercive cultic crap, and Richard exposes some remarkable and shocking secrets about Dean Hales’ shoes.Link for Insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/hpta9ex2owz14zfsynekk/45000-156.mp4?rlkey=jh9h19y64q6jm22k6ml77wmjd&st=zfucjk6i&dl=0To share your story or be a guest on the show, email [email protected] a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:[email protected] address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace
