Episode 43 - More Cults of the 20th Century

An Incomplete History

May 16 2021 • 1 hr 7 mins

We continue our exploration of the history of cults in America this week with a discussion of two infamous groups from the 1990s: The Branch Davidians and Heaven's Gate. Both cults ended in the deaths of their charismatic leaders, but the trajectories were quite different. If you're interested in the militia movement, UFOs, Nike sneakers, Star Trek, the Book of Revelations, the FBI, or how to get cheap real estate in Southern California you should join us this week!
