Show notes
THIS EPISODE IS NOT FOR CHILDREN. Or anyone if you ask Thomas. TW for lots of suicide, abortion, cannibalism, and general awfulness. The views of this cult are not our views.
Today we cover our first cult! The Church of Euthanasia lead by Chris Korda is cringy at best. Their idea was to be as disgusting as possible to get media attention. Thomas says their motto should have been, "peace, love, and blow your brains out." And yet somehow the leader is still alive to this day? Seems hypocritical. Listen at your own risk. Seriously. It's bad. (Like the episode quality is fine but the content? Yikes.)
