Michael Wayne Ryan & The Rulo Cult

27 minutes

This listener requested episode is definitely a weird one. Dave from Nebraska recommended the horrendous tale of cult leader, Michael Wayne Ryan from Rulo, Nebraska. Be warned weirdo's, this episode has some pretty intense details. Need a distraction? We got you.
