In this raw and unfiltered conversation, we dive into everything from identity politics to my life growing up in a fundamentalist Mormon cult with 44 siblings. We tackle the hypocrisies of cultural appropriation, the complexities of gender and race, and whether diversity initiatives actually help or hurt individuals. Plus, we break down the real reason polygamy became central to Mormonism—and why...

Oo la la! Today is a juicy episode--one of the most polarizing questions--should people of different faiths (and races) marry? Is it even possible to make work? Would that be a disaster? How would you raise your family? What holidays would you celebrate? What would be the hardest part? We cover all of that and more in today's episode. Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below! Ins...

Oh what a fun video! Jubilee recently posted an episode on Mormons vs. Ex-Mormons—this is me reacting to that video. I of course grew up Fundamentalist Mormon, so I will also share additional historical context from a Fundamentalist Mormon perspective.

What a fun, full-circle moment this episode is for me. A few years ago when I had almost no money and I was still living in a small town, I wanted to make living in New York feel possible, more normal. So I would go to YouTube and search “Day in the life of a New Yorker.”  And whose videos popped up? Today’s guest, Brett Conti.  We dive into the life of a YouTuber, and also talk about different cu...

YouTuber Johnny Harris grew up in Mormonism (LDS), and YouTuber Calvin Wayman, also grew up in Mormonism—but a different branch known as Fundamentalist Mormonism. In this episode, they explore the shared history of the Church.  Inquiry and curiosity led both of them out. In this episode, Calvin and Johnny compare and contrast their journeys, while also sharing some key moments in Mormon history th...

Someone in Amanda’s cult cut her neck when she tried to escape?! WTF is the “3-Wife Rule?” How did Fundamentalist Mormon cults start? And did the LDS Church have anything to do with it? Amanda Rae is back on the pod! This is a fun conversation that dives in a lot of different topics, all things cult. TIMESTAMPS 00:00:00 Teaser and Intro 00:01:38 Did Amanda turn into Calvin?

Oh my oh my. What an episode. If I would have told my 15-year old self that I would be sitting down talking with someone you can search on p*rnhub, he would have either felt like he was in heaven, or he was definitely on his way to hell.  And that’s the conundrum on this episode. Is pleasure inherently good or bad? Why is it so difficult to talk about? Laura Desiree , who was a long-time anchor at...

This is the most controversial piece of content I've ever made to the internet. Please don't cancel me lol As someone who grew up Fundamentalist Mormon, I can't think of anything more scary or intimidating to talk about than...well, "seggs." (You know what I'm talking about. I spelled it internet-friendly) So why not jump into the deep end and talk about seggs with a Segg...

Everyone thinks growing up in a cult is hard. But, that's not the hard part. The most difficult part of all is LEAVING. In this Part-2 episode, my friend Amanda and I are back in the studio. I share my story of what led up to me leaving, I share the racism in the cult, and how I finally got myself to make the decision...to then uproot my entire life and start over, at age 30.
