The Cult of Warren Jeffs’ FLDS PT2: “The Great Escape”
Last week, we met Jorjina Broadbent — mother of twelve, former sister-wife, and low-key badass hiding in plain sight.This week? She stops hiding.We pick up where we left off: deep inside the world of Warren Jeffs’ FLDS cult — a place where girls are married off as teens, obedience is salvation, and hairstyles left something to be desired… like choice. But for Jorjina, something inside her starts to shift. As the leash tightens and the rules get crueler, the exit comes into view.What follows is a breathless series of near-escapes, terrifying threats, and secret plans that might as well have been scribbled on fast food napkins. Also, Tyler’s gorilla-style documentary filmmaking at its most high-stakes gets to be part of it all. How will she make it out? And all her children?Get the popcorn ready… This is Part Two of Jorjina’s extraordinary story.___Follow Us for More Culty Content:Instagram & TikTok: @wasiinacultWATCH THE FILM:Sons of Perdition (Tyler’s baby)Stream on Amazon, Tubi, Apple TV, YouTube TV, Sling, PlexFREE for Patreon members!Help Jorjina get some Abba shoes!

The Cult of Warren Jeff’s FLDS Pt1: “Keep Sweet”
Before he was your favorite podcast host, Tyler Measom was… just a dude with a camera and a crush.It was 2005, and Tyler found himself driving deep into FLDS polygamist territory - with his co-director-slash-maybe-love-interest (hey, Jennilyn) - to make a documentary about the "Lost Boys" exiled from a fundamentalist Mormon cult run by none other than slimeball Warren Jeffs. That little film? Sons of Perdition premiered at Tribeca. And one of the mothers at the heart of that story? Jorjina Broadbent.This week, Jorjina, mother of twelve (yes, twelve), former sister-wife - joins us to recount what life was really like inside the FLDS: arranged marriage, relentless obedience, magical underwear, and raising a family in a trailer where babies sometimes had to sleep in drawers.And the escape is hair raising. And Tyler was there to capture it.This is Part One of Jorjina’s extraordinary story.___Follow Us for More Culty Content:Instagram & TikTok: @wasiinacultWATCH THE FILM:Sons of Perdition (Tyler’s baby)Stream on Amazon, Tubi, Apple TV, YouTube TV, Sling, PlexFREE for Patreon members!Support the Show:This show is listener-powered.

The Cult of Emmanuel David Pt1: “Life After Death”
In August of 1978, one of the darkest chapters in Utah’s history unfolded. A man claiming to be God became the catalyst for a tragedy that left a city shaken and a family shattered. Emmanuel David—born Charles Bruce Longo—founded a small but insidious cult rooted in offshoot Mormon beliefs, prophetic delusions, and total control.Despite the mass suicide—or murder-suicide, depending on who you ask—the cult didn’t die with its leader. The remaining believers held on. They kept the doctrine alive. And for decades, they waited for their God to return.Today’s guest is one of the few who remained.This is Part 1 of her story.________Follow Us for More Culty Content:Instagram & TikTok: @wasiinacultShare Your Story:Have a cultic experience of your own?
