Ever wondered how Scientology infiltrates Hollywood's glitzy events? We're pulling back the velvet ropes to reveal the church's surprising connections and tactics. Join us in our brand-new studio, a quirky space filled with collectibles like Davy dolls and exclusive bobbleheads, as we discuss the 'safe pointing' strategy that Scientology employs during events like the Hollywood Christmas Parade. Claire and I, finally podcasting from the same room, dive into these complex relationships, sharing laughs and insights about how celebrities become unwitting allies of the church.
But that's not all—behind the facade of these glamorous gatherings lies a world of strict hierarchies and meticulous planning. You'll hear anecdotes about lavish sushi spreads laid out for stars like Tom Cruise, and the amusing realities behind the making of "Battlefield Earth." We also explore the irony of Scientology's embrace of the commercial aspects of Christmas, despite their non-religious stance, and shed light on the inner workings of Author Services Inc. and other key entities within the church's infrastructure.
Expect stories that are both eye-opening and light-hearted, like our humorous take on codpiece sizes in "Battlefield Earth" and what it's like to run a contest highlighting Scientology's less-than-stellar organizations. We're thrilled to share this journey with you, offering a chance to win exclusive merch through our giveaways. So, tune in for a candid chat, vibrant community engagement, and a front-row seat to the fascinating intersection of pop culture and Scientology.
