Let's Start A Cult Podcast

01/03/2022

🚨NEW EPISODE!🚨

We finally have a cult that isn't terrible! Bruno Gröning & The Circle of Friends is a story of a man who turns his trauma into a positive through faith healing.

Though faith healing is ridiculous, his methods may prove more useful than you think!

Thanks to my guest Lindsay Valenty from Ye Olde Crime and Pineapple Pizza Podcast!
