The hosts speculate about what the group's money-making operation might be and discuss other cult-related media and scandals, including Netflix's "Dancing for the Devil," a podcast about Jerry Falwell Jr., and conversation about propaganda, social engineering, and media influence. They share recommendations (the film "Cry-Baby," Netflix's "Him & Her," and the book "Propaganda" by Edward L. Bernays) and close by inviting comments, letters, and ratings.

The world is a dumpster fire and you need 20 minutes of actual peace. I've got you.
This isn't your standard "love and light" meditation, this is clinical hypnotherapy meets sound healing science. I've combined:
Triple Solfeggio frequencies (528 Hz love frequency + 432 Hz universal harmony + 639 Hz heart connection)

8D spatial audio (immersive AF, you'll feel like you're floating) 
Gentle subliminal reinforcement (your subconscious gets the memo too)
Research shows loving-kindness meditation reduces stress, increases empathy, and helps you stop feeling like a rage-filled isolated hermit. Exactly what we need right now.
Two versions:
This episode: Daytime version with gentle wake-up
Sleep version: posted next - No wake-up, fades to silence
Use headphones for full effect. You've earned this.
