The Mysterious Cult Leader Who Inspired Jonestown - Father Divine

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!What if I told you that one of the most influential... and mysterious cult leaders in American history is someone most people have never heard of? And that Jim Jones himself, yes Jonestown Jim Jones, got many of his ideas from same guy?Today, we’re diving into the wild and complicated story of Father Divine—the charismatic leader behind the Peace Mission Movement, a man who inspired millions, shaped pieces of the civil rights era, built entire communities from the ground up… and also demanded unwavering loyalty that crossed more than a few lines.This isn’t your typical cult story. It’s part spiritual revolution, part empire-building, part “wait, WHAT?!” And somehow still a chapter of American history no one talks about. And we should because it brings up an interesting question...Where’s the line between a movement that helps people… and one that controls them? And at what point does something become a cult?Let’s get into the Dark History of Father Divine. And when you're done... go check out my MMM episode about Jonestown: https://audioboom.com/posts/8164237-jonestown-massacre-apocalyptic-cult-who-was-jim-jones________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgGoodreads: http://bit.ly/3IVnO7NSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: cases4bailey@gmail.comBusiness Related Emails: bailey@underscoretalent.comBusiness Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

The Shocking Case of Robert Pickton | 49 Women, A Pig Farm, and A Horrifying Secret

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday!!On the outskirts of Vancouver, hidden behind barns, pig pens, and the chaos of a wild biker gang, Robert Pickton built a kingdom of horror. Known as the Pig Farmer Killer, Pickton lured vulnerable women to his farm—where they vanished forever. But was he really acting alone? Or was there a darker network protecting him all along?In this episode, I dive deep into one of Canada’s most disturbing cases. From the infamous Piggy Palace parties (where even off-duty cops and Hells Angels showed up) to the shocking police failures that let a predator keep hunting for years, this story is packed with corruption, cover-ups, and unanswered questions.With DNA evidence, survivor testimony, and chilling confessions, the truth about what happened on the Pickton farm is more twisted than you can imagine. And maybe... Robert Pickton was just the face of something much bigger. Let’s get into the Dark History of the Pig Farmer Killer.Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time. Hope you have a great rest of your week, make good choices and I'll be seeing you very soon.xoBailey Sarian________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRGoodreads: https://bit.ly/44P51lpFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: cases4bailey@gmail.comBusiness Related Emails: bailey@underscoretalent.comBusiness Related Mail:Bailey Sarian4400 W.

Remember Terri Schiavo?? What was that about? How a Private Battle became a Public WAR

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday!!The Terri Schiavo story is one I remember from when I was a kid. Because it was everywhere for a while. But the details were blurry. So I decided to dig in.Terri was just 26 years old when she collapsed and ended up in a persistent vegetative state. And that was just the beginning of the story.Pretty much over night... her husband and parents went to war over her life support—trying to decide who had the right to decide if she stayed alive, and what Terri would have really wanted. Then the fight went global.Politicians, religious groups, and even the Pope jumped in on the conversation, turning this private tragedy into worldwide headlines. The battle raged in the papers and in courtrooms for 15 years. Until it all came to an end. Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time. Hope you have a great rest of your week, make good choices and I'll be seeing you very soon.xoBailey Sarian________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRGoodreads: https://bit.ly/44P51lpFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: cases4bailey@gmail.comBusiness Related Emails: bailey@underscoretalent.comBusiness Related Mail:Bailey Sarian4400 W.
