The long awaited second part in our Scientology coverage is here! Join us as we go in-depth with Scientology. Here Aislinn tells Miranda about the religions practices, organizations, and controversies. Why are so many celebrities part of it? How did it become so secretive? And what the heck is an E-meter? The episode may be a bit late, but it is well worth the listen.
There's too many sources to link here. Instead, here's Aislinn's Google Doc of notes:

January 20, 2021Episode 56: L Ron Hubbard (Scientology Part 1)
Here we have another topic that was too big for one episode! Aislinn wants to tell Miranda about Scientology, but she first has to talk about its founder: L. Ron Hubbard.
Why did a pulp fiction writer manage to create a new religion? What qualified him to pioneer a new realm of psychology? And how much science is really in Scientology?
Featuring: the blending of sci-fi and reality, bizarre naval misadventures, temporary bigamy, and even a message from Aleister Crowley himself
And we haven't even gotten to the cult* stuff yet.
*Scientology.org is pretty adamant that they are not a cult. We'll let you decide for yourself.

In this weeks episode Miranda began a dive into a real life horror story. The Story of Dear David that was experienced and well documented by Famous Cartoonist - Adam Ellis all on Twitter.

January 12, 2021Episode 54 - The Birds Work For The Bourgeoisie
"“All of the birds died in 1986 due to Reagan killing them and replacing them with spies that are now watching us. The birds work for the bourgeoisie.”
In this episode, Aislinn forces Miranda to endure more Cold War history as they delve into The Great Bird Conspiracy. What is this odd conspiracy? Who started it? Why has it spread? And perhaps most importantly: How does Waffle House factor into all of this?
Maybe we should all be a bit more wary of those eyes in the sky.
