Reunited and it feels so culty

It's been a long time coming... The reunion episode no one asked for. Maggi and Sierra are back after an extended hiatus to talk about their creepiest cults. Pour yourself a drink and get ready to dive deep into The Order of the Solar Temple and Los Narcosátanicos. As always, the liquor is flowing, the facts are fuzzy, and you might think at least 30 seconds of this episode are funny.

The Weigh Down: Gwen Shamblin Lara's Religion of Diet

WE'RE BACK BABY! Coming back with a cult-like religious sect, the Remnant Fellowship Church, created by one woman with a dietetics education and hair as high as the heavens. Within Gwen Shamblin Lara's hair--I meant *church*--lies a murder investigation, fraud, greed, restrictive dieting via starvation, and child abuse, all ending in a tragic plane crash. On this episode Maggi and Sierra drunkenly ponder the story of another cult leader and her beginnings, as seen in the HBO Max docuseries "The Way Down". What can we say, you came for the story and stayed for the terrible accents and "What's not a cult but feels like a cult" hot takes. Follow our instagram @cocktailsandcults and feel free to DM us your suggestions on a cult you would like to hear about next. Thank you to those who have stuck with our drunk shenanigans and questionable sound quality :) Stay out of cults!!!

Celebrity Cults & Conspiracies

On this episode we invited a special guest and friend of the podcast Corey to spill some juicy gossip about celebrity figures who we think have potential cult involvement or cult leader vibes. Our hot takes include Kanye "Ye" West, Jared Leto, and Elvis...yes Elvis Presley. We also concluded that Sierra would be the most likely to join a cult!
