Summary

Join us as we discuss a lesser known cult that had some unique cooking methods: The Blackburn Cult! This cult was founded and led by a woman, which is unusual compared to the cults we usually discuss. Queen May and her daughter would go on to not only swindle their followers out of money, but they would also engage in some very questionable and, dare I say, illegal activities in the name of serving God and finishing some book that no one was going to read anyway. Learn about the unfortunate oven incident that did not in fact cure one of their more vulnerable cult members and about the forlorn parents who made a poor decision in the hopes of resurrecting their daughter. Did I mention the nightly naked ampitheatre sacrifices yet? I didn't? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out more.
