Sinopsis

*Content Warning* This episode is about NXIVM, the cult, and we discuss some of the awful acts that happened because of it. We don’t get into too much detail, but we do mention sex and sexual coercion, brainwashing, and violence both physical and mental towards mostly women. So if you’re iffy about cults in general, maybe skip this one!* We have a Patreon! Go to patreon.com/howstarwarsisit and subscribe at whatever tier you want! We have special guest Bethany Remely on the show today to talk about the cult made famous by the documentaries The Vow and Seduced: NXIVM. Do we pull off the incredibly tricky task of making an ostensibly comedy podcast episode about a very dark and evil cult? You’ll have to listen to find out! (We do, I’m pretty sure we do). Mike also brings a game that tests Bethany’s and Josiah’s knowledge of fictional cults and their leaders. You can follow Bethany’s ComedySportz escapades at twitch.tv/csznchicago.
