    Don't be misled

    Make no mistake; the true driving force behind this cretinous twosome is Shaleia/Megan, the meek and mild wifey. Truly Machiavellian and deadly. Jeff is the more passive of the two, despite his alpha dog bluster.

    The residents of the bucolic small Northern Michigan town they have infested are appalled and dismayed by their presence. Many local and state police complaints have been lodged against them with no consequences so far. I do think that while they're canny and manipulative, they're not intelligent enough to maintain their Teflon existence and will someday trip up and fail. They need to be in prison.

    Don't waste your time on this garbage

    This garbage wasted 3 hours of my time. So little content has been stretched into 3 hours. Many meaning less talking. The so called cult is such small group that is not worthy to be reported. This is no story here. There is no crime here. No drama. No twist. No surprise. The two leading roles are not worthy to be called "cult leader". They don't have any charisma, which is pretty essential to be a cult leader. They don't have intelligent. Their followers are obviously not smart. Kind of below average. There are big robberies out there, while you report on petty theft. Why? I can feel the carelessness of the makers of this TV series. They just want throw in all the trashy footages they have to make it three hours long and get paid.

    Brilliant comedy

    One of the best comedies I've ever seen. Every single moment is a face palm. Every character is a quack. The journalist found the goldmine.

    We have a black American who thinks her blackness is loneliness while believing every person is lonely and depressed, the irony and offence escapes her. We have a taro reading transgender woman who is obsessed a conservative man, again the irony.

    What they all share in common, is that they all identify as "spiritual" people who believe in "energies" and believe that with enough obsession (choosing love) then their idol (twin flame) will reciprocate their obsession and they'll manifest each other as each other's super spiritual soul mates who will complete each other, all by paying a monthly subscription that they can't afford, and delegating their autonomy to some cult leaders, who they worship because the leaders embrace their cashcows, are attentive, and speak the same mumbo jumbo the subjects believe but with conviction instead humility; which for people who only have the facade of confidence, means and is the world to them.

    They are moths who are drawn to the flame, and then blame the flame. Don't be a moth, and you won't worship the flame. Don't idolise, and you won't worship false idols. Don't believe everyone is secretly flawed like you, and you'll start becoming someone worth being.

    Content is good but the red hair girl talk is unbearable

    Overall pretty good content. Better than the Netflix one I think. Although I watched this after the Netflix docuseries. But I can't listen to the main reporter presenter. At times it's way too nasal and like high school talk. Takes away from credibility. It seems like it was amateur reporting.

    Otherwise good content although at times one sided. Didn't seem to show a neutral view from the presenter's side, the best part is when wintnesses spoke.

    Superior to the Netflix Documentary

    There's a Netflix Documentary on the same two insanely freaky married couple who pretend to be channeling God, are New Age ripoff artists, and are filthy rich because of who might very well be the dumbest, most lonely and pathetic people on the planet... their followers...

    This doc is much, much better, and is more centered on the couple and their history while the Netflix centers on a group of mothers whose daughters have joined this freaky online cult where....

    Well it's just too bizarre to explain, too bizarre to be real, you have to see this, you have to witness and experience yourself how really truly weird this cult is... just imagine a cross between Satanic New Age mysticism, a pyramid scheme (or Amway on steroids) and The Dating Game if hosted by Rod Serling...

    Props for the female narrating journalist Alice Hines: she stood up to these two charlatans, and it's just insane that they're still allowed to rip people off...

    Then again, as the old saying goes, if you don't believe in anything, you'll pretty much buy anything.

    A FEW NOTES:

    1) People are saying that these two aren't "charismatic" like most cult leaders, Jim Jones, Manson, etc. But I think that Jeff is deliberately being the anti-cult-leader cult-leader. The jokey Christ-man with a man-bun. The coffee shop crystal-healing girl's dream boyfriend/husband. Or something.

    2) The one interviewee "gender expert" compared the couple to conservatives/Christians because of the whole man/woman thing. This cult-couple are far from conservative and are as anti-Christian as you can possibly get. They are new age hippies, which is Buddhism for modern times, and they're as liberal left-wing as you can possibly be. It's funny that, the only time politics get compared to them, in a negative way, they're somehow conservative. Just amazing. Simply incredible how the left cannot ever admit that their very own wolves targets the weak sheep.

    3) Seeing Alice wearing a Covid mask makes me think she fell for another false cult while exposing THIS false cult. I cannot believe people wore masks everywhere they went. What's funny is that even the freaky cult couple are smart enough NOT to wear a mask. That tells you something. It's like Manson being not crazy enough for Scientology.

    4) The Netflix documentary is based on the Vice article that Alice intentionally progressed from, which is why this is a much better, deeper and more exposing doc. I've watched it twice in a row so I am HOOKED despite these critiques.

    5) The so-called pyramid-scheme coaches are just as guilty of robbing people as their leaders are of robbing them. All should be ashamed here. All these people are scum (except the ones smart enough to get out of it... but how on earth could they have been so stupid to have joined in the first place?) And what's really heartbreaking is Briana and the girl from Amsterdam. Both are utterly adorable young ladies and it's insane that they would need these charlatans to help them hook a man, or that they'd need anyone at all...

    Basically, anyone who fell for these new-age con artists ARE lonely new-agers that should realize what/who they fell for, and start rethinking their dislike of organized religion... I've been Christian all my life and never had to PAY ONE CENT for it.

    (Also, anyone who wants to quench your thirst on this cult, go to the YouTube show Let The Fresh Erin, she takes apart this cult and it's both moving and hilarious)
