    While we've done episodes dedicated to one cult in the past, this week we're looking at five different cults from history—the Wakemanites, Magdalena Solis, the Narcosatanists, The Movement of the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God, and Chen Tao—all of which have their own insane tales. We also look to see if you or someone you know is part of a cult.
