Ep. 127 The Latin Kings: Just Like "Mean Girls"
We're back with another episode on gangs! Except for this time, the gang is actually closer to a cult than you might've thought. With its own religion, sacred text, and demi-gods the Latin Kings are part "Crips and Bloods" and part "Jonestown". Join us as Mando tells Paige and Andrea about how Chicago's history birthed the gang and what the group's original purpose was.

Ep. 126 The Seekers: Mime-o-grams
We're back with another episode about some wild space cult. Except this one has a fancy science twist. Shouts out to all my nerds out there. Join us as Paige takes Mando and Andrea through the prophecies of a Chicago woman and the long-lasting implications they've had on sociology. Also, thanks to our sponsor, Mando's Mime-o-grams: "Providing terrible news with horrible body movements since 2020!"

Ep. 125 The Illuminati Pt. 2: Forbidden Secrets
We're back from our break with part two of our series on The Illuminati! Join us as Mando tells Paige and Andrea about how Adam Weishaupt turned a rag-tag group of college boys into one of the most feared and infamous groups in history. Stay tuned at the end to hear the gang open up a special package, too! Spoiler: It's either proof that aliens are real or some really amazing art from some listeners. Maybe both.

The Blackburn Cult: Live at Panic Fest!
Sorry for the delay, but we promise it's worth it! This week our episode is the live show we performed at Panic Fest 2020! Join us as we take you, and a crowd of innocent civilians, through one of the most insane and, at times, upsetting groups we've ever covered. Learn all about how May Otis and her sister-daughter used some good looks and "questionable hands" to make a group of Jesus nerds excited about a book. Was that a strange series of typos? Nope. Buckle up, folks. It gets WEIRD.

Ep. 123 BDX: The Dolly Lama
We're back with a longer-than-normal episode for this week. Join us as Paige takes Mando and Andrea through the life and times of Scott Caruthers and his space cult of cat worshipping gym rats. There's a lot to unpack here but if you're a fan of true crime you're gonna LOVE this one. Highlights include: figuring out how to correctly apply sunscreen ALL OVER your body, a few pitches for the next hit A&E documentary, and us accidentally solving the JonBenét Ramsey murder.
