River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid. In the 1970s and 80s, a self-help company called Lifespring took America by storm. Hundreds of thousands of people walked out of Lifespring as true believers, convinced that the seminars had the power to change the world. ...

Today we are unraveling the troubling transformation of Shelley Shannon, a girl-next-door type, born and raised in Wisconsin, who became a notorious domestic terrorist at the center of controversial anti-abortion activism. Her story doesn't stop there, oh no. But first, a disclaimer of sorts, one needn’t share the same political beliefs or association as others to live in harmony but we must all agree that violence cannot be the answer. “You think that good is hating what is bad. What is bad is the hating mind itself.” Bon Kai (Buddhist monk)
This tale delves into the sinister side of religious fervor as we uncover the alarming reality of her involvement in a series of violent protests and attacks on abortion providers throughout the country. Her life was far from ordinary, as was her role in the contentious and infamous 'Summer of Mercy' anti-abortion protests. Our discussions take a serious turn as we grapple with the implications of her actions and the devastation they caused as well as the palpable anger left lingering in the wake of the dark decisions that Shelley made.
These discussions may be tough, but they are vitally necessary as we venture into the world of domestic terrorism and its terrifying reality. But don't worry, we won't leave you in the depths of despair. We'll wrap things up with our tarot reading to lighten up the mood with a bit of mysticism.
This week we shared the podcast, I Think My Fridge Is Haunted!
