Satanic Panic Survivor
by Kristopher Pasi Hoeksema
Remember when people were told by the news in the 80s that there were Satanic cults everywhere? That's OK if you don't. Kristopher Irizarry-Hoeksema (aka Gato Toninas) does. When his adoptive mother, (aka Police Station Polly of 2020 viral Karen fame), became a born-again Christian, he was dragged into the heart of the Satanic Panic which was driving the growing Christian evangelical movement. With the Satanic Panic Survivor, listeners not only revisit the OG Satanic Panic of the 1980s, the emergent Satanic Panic is also scrutinized. Besides taking an in-depth look at the 1980s Satanic Panic and adjacent moral panics created by the Evangelical Christian right, the former Coolhunting and New York Sun fashion writer examines other trends, bubbles, moral panics, and public manias.
