Presenting Dr. Miracle, the Alkaline Hoaxer
A wellness center some called Miracle Ranch, nestled in the scenic mountains of Southern California, promised a luxurious escape and a path to wellness through clean, alkaline living. Its leader, Dr. Robert O. Young, attracted wealthy clientele with his “groundbreaking” health protocols and friendly, family-man persona. But beneath the serene surface, Miracle Ranch harbored a dark secret. The people who stayed there didn’t get better; they got worse.
Through legal documents and candid interviews with former patients and employees, law enforcement officials, and affected family members, this series unravels the chilling true story of one man who convinced scores of people that cancer is not a cell but an “acidic, poisonous liquid,” and how his popular “alkaline diet” turned deadly.

Customer Reviews
Mispronunciation
When Kevin Frankie testifies, he pronounces his last name as “Frank” no E at the end. Basic, but clearly missed throughout these stories that are covering the saga.
Needed more thorough Research
This is such a horrible story all together. Just heartbreaking for these poor kids. While this was informative, there was a lot that I felt lacked real research namely the Mormon church. The podcasters seemed to only interview Mormons who have clear chips on their shoulders (rightfully so, but still only bitter opinions). Would be nice to actually hear exactly what the church believes by someone who doesn’t have a chip on their shoulder. Some terms used didn’t seem to match what I’ve heard about the Mormon church so it didn’t match what I’ve learned. For example, the talk of Ruby trying to maybe take all the blame for the church? I don’t see it as that. It sounds that the church leaders saw this being bad what was happening with Ruby and maybe informed her to stop what she was “preaching”, but she refused to do so. This would be a cause for her apologizing for not listening. But as for the overall church paying this therapist, that would still be at a small level not an entire church level. The church area referring her as a therapist really failed. She clearly is a messed up woman. Seemed like real research lacked in some areas that could have been more enlightening. What a sad ongoing story. These women need to remain out of society for a long time.
Miles above any other podcast about Ruby Franke
Excellent interviews, super interesting background on LDS culture and momfluencing, establishes context and really helps you understand how something so horrible could occur.
