12 - Shiny Happy People Review Part 4

In the final installment of their Shiny Happy People review, Amanda and Kyle have an emotional conversation about episode four of the docuseries. They discuss the correlations between Josh Dugger and Amanda’s brother, as well as the parental responses of Jim Bob and Michelle and Amanda’s bio parents. Kyle and Amanda react to Anna Duggar’s choices in the aftermath of Josh’s investigation and trial and set the stage for a conversation about the cult’s stance on divorce, which will be the subject of an episode coming in a few weeks. Amanda shares her experiences with the Joshua Generation and their goal of taking over the government, and ultimately the world, as an “elite strike force” for Christ. Kyle and Amanda talk about the hard work of deconstruction after leaving the cult and the caring community that awaits anyone who leaves behind the IBLP cult and Bill Gothard’s teachings. Support the show
