In 1973 Hell came home and invaded the body of a young girl. This is the story of a movie and its makers. It's a tale of dark and light, of loss and love. A story of faith and fury, of causes and curses, of horrors real and imagined, of unbridled ego and brute force filmmaking. It's the movie critics called "religious pornography" and "occultist claptrap." The movie that left audiences...hysterical. Decades later, it remains perhaps the most frightening movie we will ever see. From Wondery, ...

Well, we‘re taking some of that space back! If you’re dying for some dialogue instead of all the yelling; if you know it’s okay to have differences without having to hate each other; if you believe politics and religion are too important to let ”the screamers” drown out the rest of us and would love some engagin ...

They were adulterers, murderers, mistresses, religious zealots, thieves, and traitors. They were queens, wives, mothers, young, and old. What binds the women together in this podcast is their legacies. These are women who were known during their lifetimes or reinvented after their deaths as wicked women.

For years I felt like a looser. I felt like I have no time to accomplish all that I want to achieve with my talents. However, upon closer examination, what does it truly mean not having enough time? Granted, I may not have been able to accomplish everything in my 20s, as I have already reached the age of 39 based on my biological birthdate of 1985. Yet, my real birthdate is 2018 when I left Christianity and was born again (pun intended). Coming out of the religious mind prison that had encom ...

God Vs Man is the NSFW podcast by Logan Miles, comedian based out of Long Beach California. To make a long story short, I was born into a fundamentalist religious culture with an abundance of golden calves.
