Join Us… or Don't: Our Totally Fake Cults Episode

In this episode of Squirrel Talk, Chris and Mike dive headfirst into the bizarre world of completely made-up, absolutely ridiculous, zero-chance-of-being-taken-seriously fake cults. What starts as a simple idea turns into a full-blown spiral of nonsense as both hosts unveil their increasingly unhinged creations—from over-enthusiastic woodland worshippers to organizations with rules so weird even the founders would get kicked out. Chris presents his own gloriously absurd cult concept, while Mike comes armed with multiple fake cults of his own, each more chaotic and questionably structured than the last. Together they break down rituals, uniforms, commandments, sacred texts, ranking systems, initiation rites, and recruitment pitches in a way that only Squirrel Talk can: with maximum energy, minimal sanity, and zero theological accuracy. It's an episode where the only commandments are "Don't be normal" and "Wiggle your imaginary tail proudly." Whether you're here to laugh, to judge, or to reconsider your life choices, this one delivers. 📣 1Up Electric Sponsor Blurb Big thanks to our sponsor 1Up Electric—your go-to team for any electrical project, big or small.
