Chad Harris' family joined the Shiny Happy People cult when he was just 7 years old, after a doctor convinced his parents to attend a seminar with cult leader Bill Gothard. Chad spent the next almost 20 years being indoctrinated and brainwashed with extreme fundamental Christian teachings before he finally found the truth and ultimately shared his experience on Prime Video's #1 documentary series, "Shiny Happy People." Davey Jackson and Brice are also ex-members of the Shiny Happy People cult and discover with Chad that they all happened to attend the cult's annual conference in Knoxville, TN in the same year and witnessed one of the most infamous incidents in the cult's history!
