293 - Raëlianism, A UFO Religion (with Ben Russell)

This week we are joined by our good friend Ben Russell to tell us about one of his favourite cults, Raëlianism (AKA Raëlism). Described as religion for atheists, we attempt to unpack their practices.

We just released videos of our four shows recorded in Melbourne in April. Check them out here: https://sospresents.com/programs/dgo-micf
