This week, Chris Cyr joins the Idiots. 00:00 Introductions 00:37 The Debate 10:50 The Squad 21:56 Disney 28:13 Corporate Vigilance 31:38 Online Fraud 32:54 Josh Duggar —Is Rex Huppke the dumbest man on the planet? Maybe. Rex posted an opinion piece on June 25th, several days before the first presidential debate. His take? Trump was going to chicken out, and not attend. Well guess what? That didn't happen. Here's a hot take: instead of posting hot takes, allow events to occur, and then report on them. Isn't that what the news is supposed to be, a summation of daily happenings? From that stepping off point—mocking Rex Huppke—the idiots (and Chris) discuss what happened that fateful night. Biden was old and confused; Trump lied every time he opened his mouth. Which will be more alarming to voters? Lies and incompetence, or a stutter? We'll find out in November. —Oh, Jamaal Bowman, we hardly knew ye. The Squad, the famous group of insane members of Congress who fight for supposed moral justice more than they do the economic benefit of all, lost the fire alarm pulling, shirt waving, insane Jamaal Bowman. Voters in New York's 16th District gave George Latimer a shot at the seat, causing AOC to blame $25 million in ad buys, not the fact Bowman probably wasn't the best fit for the job. Because reality should never pierce the veil of delusion, should it? (Hint: it was probably his Anti-Semitism and bizarre stance on Israel that lost him the seat.) —This gets a little messy, but stay with us… Disney fired actress Gina Carano, because she didn't align with them politically. And they said so. Publicly. So now Gina is suing Disney for wrongful termination. Seems pretty cut and dried, right? Well… Since the God-awful Supreme Court of 2010, which in retrospect might have been somehow better than the compete dumpster fire of a SCOTUS we have today, handed down Citizens United, corporations are people. Which means Disney has a right to free speech of its own. But seriously, all they had to do is shut up. Gina Carano is a block of wood. Her acting should have spoken for itself here. —The United States is a sue-happy country. People file lawsuits at the drop of a hat, which is absurd. So, corporations are fighting back, and one way they're covering their bases is by warning consumers about items not even in their product. Why? Just to be safe. The FDA, for some reason, has an issue with this. Look, government… You can't have it both ways. You don't get to let swindlers sue anyone, at any time, and not give people a way to guard against that. Sara Lee and Entenmann's took a creative approach to warning labels, and the Idiots approve. —Go big or go home? No! Go small and succeed! The Idiots often talk about the dumbest people on the planet, those who fall for easily verified online scams to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars… Well, “Paul Schwartz” of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (not really) is making bank $600 at a time. He doesn't string people along, he just takes the cash and runs. Well done, “Paul.” (And everyone out there: verify, verify, verify, before giving anyone online any money.) —Josh Duggar is a horrible human being for many, many reasons. I mean, most of the Duggar family is. (Thanks, Jim Bob and Michelle. You really put some awful out there into the world.) But Josh, he's not just awful, he's a convicted criminal, and not for something small, like petty theft. Not. Josh was into children. In the worst way. Well, when you're a criminal with a healthy ego, everything you do should be a-ok with the world, right? Criminal conviction because you're a pervert? Pfft, that's not fair, I'm Josh Duggar! So he asked the Supreme Court to overturn (or at least examine) his case. Hilarious. Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don't have to. Tune in and get your giggle on.

Surprise, surprise, another SBC pastor has been accused of covering up sexual abuse. But there is so much more to this story than the headlines may lead you to believe. You might have seen the recent news that staff members and deacons of Immanuel Baptist Church in Little Rock, Arkansas are alleging that their pastor, Dr. Steven Smith, failed to disclose the sexual abuse of children to the congregation. But that's just the start of this crazy story. This one has some pretty wild twists and turns, including the involvement of none other than Josh Duggar's child porn trial defense attorney. Sometimes I think church sex abuse cover ups can't get any crazier. Spoiler alert: they can. BECOME A PATRON OF THE PODCAST!

Welcome to 2024 where a good number of men are still audacious beyond belief and women are still saying "WTF just let me live, dammit" every five seconds. Among them, many of the daughters who grew up Duggar, as in TLC's most viewed show ever, 19 Kids and Counting Duggar. Jill released a memoir at the end of 2023, Counting the Cost, that called out everyone who was complacent in her repressed, abusive and highly controlled religious upbringing, and we are here for it. We talk Jim Bob, IBLP (Institute of Basic Life Principals) and the "Shiny, Happy People" documentary. It's a lot to unpack, but stay with us because at the end we close out the episode with special guest Dr. Janja Lalich, an international authority on cults, extremism, and coercion. She offers some much-needed insight into how cults operate and advice on how to know if that new self-help support group you just joined online is actually a cult. (Heads up, MLMs can be cults, too.) Dr. Lalich can be found at janjalalich.com or lalichcenter.org. Do you have a story you think we need to discuss or a guest we should have on?

You probably are pretty familiar with the Duggar family, from TLC's hit show 19 and Counting. But do you know about the sexual abuse they hid for years? And do you know about the organization, often called a dangerous cult, that shaped their beliefs that may have led to them downplay that sexual abuse, The Institute in Basic Life Principles? Wild one today. A lot more talk about riding bikes than I anticipated. Hail Nimrod! GIVING TREE INFORMATION: If you would like to donate this year, go to amazon.com and purchase a gift card.

Can deeply entrenched religious beliefs inadvertently shield and even perpetuate abuse? This perplexing question arose during a recent episode of the "Hidden Killers Podcast" with Tony Brueski. He invited Dr. Laura Anderson, a prominent psychotherapist and religious trauma consultant, to demystify the layers surrounding religious trauma. In the discussion, Dr. Anderson sheds light on a crucial distinction: "Trauma is not the thing that happens to us, but it's the way that our body responds or our nervous system responds to the thing that happens to us." This means that while abuse might be the root cause, it doesn't necessarily equate to trauma. Instead, trauma stems from how individuals internalize and react to abusive incidents. One could wonder, how do religious organizations inadvertently or even actively contribute to this dynamic? Dr. Anderson pointed to several red flags typical of high-control religious groups that can pave the way for trauma. These range from isolation, where individuals are urged to associate only with those deemed appropriate by the religious hierarchy, to strict information control, where members are told what they can read, watch, or listen to. Furthermore, in many high-control religions, rigid definitions of gender and sexuality exist, typically placing men in power roles above women. This often leads to abusive behaviors, backed by justifications of doing it "in the name of God." Spiritual abuse takes many forms, with threats and accusations being commonplace. For instance, if one strays from the religious path, they may be warned that they are now susceptible to harm, both in the physical and spiritual realms. One stark example is Scientology's "fair game" concept, where those who leave the Church become targets for various forms of harassment. However, the insidiousness of religious trauma often lies in its subtlety. As Dr. Anderson states, "Oftentimes there's consequences for saying no to those things." A church's seemingly benign requirements, like donating a certain amount or adhering to specific dress codes, may seem trivial at first. Yet, over time, these "tiny things" accumulate, gradually chipping away at an individual's autonomy and identity. Taking a more specific example, Brueski brought up the controversial case of the Duggar family, members of the Independent Fundamentalist Baptist church. The incident involved Josh Duggar's sexual abuse of his sisters, with his parents, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, seemingly dismissing the severity of the situation. One might ask: how could seemingly moral parents act this way, seemingly prioritizing their faith over the well-being of their children? Dr. Anderson's answer delves deep into the foundational beliefs of many high-control religions: the idea that humans are born sinful or evil. In this perspective, sin is expected, and when one sins, it's a "God problem" and not necessarily a legal issue. Dr. Anderson elaborates, "When you sin, then it's a God problem. It's not a legal problem." Consequently, the solution is often sought internally within the religious community, sidelining the legal and societal implications of the abusive action. This protective stance isn't unique to the Duggar case. From the Catholic Church to the Southern Baptist Church, many religious institutions have grappled with scandals, often opting to "deal with it in-house" rather than confront the issue openly. Concluding their discussion, Brueski and Anderson highlighted the broader implications of religious trauma, urging society to be vigilant and question the structures that may enable such behaviors. So, we return to our initial inquiry with a twist: how can society recognize and address religious trauma effectively while respecting the sacredness of individual beliefs?

Is it possible that the very institutions meant to bring solace and guidance can be the ones causing distress and anguish? This was one of the many thought-provoking questions posed on a recent episode of "Hidden Killers," a popular podcast hosted by Tony Brueski. In this intriguing episode, Brueski is joined by Dr. Laura Anderson, a seasoned psychotherapist and religious trauma consultant. Religious trauma, though often overlooked, is becoming a topic of increasing concern in both therapeutic and societal circles. Brueski dives right in, referencing high-profile cases of religious abuse, such as the one surrounding Josh Duggar. These harrowing stories exemplify how deeply religious beliefs, often distorted and extreme, can damage individuals and entire families. For those outside these situations, it seems almost straightforward: "Why wouldn't you do things this way?" Brueski poses. Yet, Anderson's in-depth explanation reveals a complex web of indoctrination, fear, and a loss of self. Drawing a comparison between high-control religions and domestic abuse, Anderson underscores the startling similarities. In both scenarios, the "perpetrator or abuser…seek to take away your independence, your autonomy, your sense of self identity, and they replace it with theirs." The case of Anna Duggar, for instance, serves as a poignant example. Despite her high-profile family, Anna remains deeply entangled in a cycle of abuse, exacerbated by her lack of education, lack of means for self-sufficiency, and the powerful religious beliefs of both her family and in-laws. As Anderson aptly puts it, for Anna and many others, "Where is she going to go? What is she going to do?" Escape is not as straightforward as it might seem. One of Anderson's main therapeutic goals is to help individuals reconnect with their own voice. Questions like "Who am I?" and "What do I really think?" can be life-changing for someone who's been trained to suppress their individuality and desires. Anderson also highlights how religious institutions, and many groups outside religion, prey on innate human desires for certainty, stability, and safety. By presenting a clear dichotomy of 'good' and 'bad,' such institutions can manipulate and control adherents through fear, particularly the fear of severe consequences like eternal damnation. However, why this desire for control? Brueski questions. Anderson posits that, in many cases, it's a blend of the quest for power in patriarchal systems and the longing for safety and certainty. She recalls reading about the origins of world religions and how they often evolve similarly: a need for understanding and certainty leads to rule creation, which then spirals into further rules to solidify power structures. Religion, at its core, can offer solace, purpose, and community. However, as Brueski reminisces about his childhood experiences with religion—like coloring disturbing biblical scenes in Sunday school—it becomes evident that these teachings, especially when misinterpreted or taught with a malicious agenda, can have lasting traumatic effects. So, as listeners absorb the revelations from this enlightening discussion, another question emerges: How can society differentiate between genuine spiritual guidance and manipulative control? As episodes like this on "Hidden Killers" unveil the dark corners of faith, it's a question we should all consider. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

On today's program, a judge has upheld Josh Duggar's conviction on child pornography charges, and a prominent Austin church that had been started by the Anglican Church of North America has decided it's too liberal for that denomination, and has decided to affiliate with the Episcopal Church. Plus, a couple of new studies indicate that giving to Christian ministries could be down in the coming year. We begin today with news that a former trustee of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary is calling for a forensic audit of the school. The producers for today's program are Rich Roszel and Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth.

This week is a doozy! We are sure a lot of you are familiar with The Duggar Family, who had their own TV show, called 19 Kids and Counting, throughout the late 2000s. This run ended in 2015, when some horrifying court documents came to light regarding the Duggar's eldest son, Josh. Or, you might be familiar with the family through the new documentary about them and the cultish group they belong to, called "Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.Familiar with the case or not, tune in for a detailed summary regarding everything that went down with this family (and trust us, there's a lot).

You know the only time Elaine diverts from the paranormal and aliens is when cults are involved. In this episode, guest co-host, Delani from Murder Nerd joins Elaine as they go into the dangerously popular cult that the Duggars and their reality show were low-key promoting and how extreme religious ideals from cults are leaking their way into government. As usual, when it comes to cults, things are never what they seem and the ending is always a mess.Watch Shiny, Happy, People:https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0B8TR2QV5/ref=atv_dp_share_cu_rWatch Delani on Murder Nerd: https://www.youtube.com/@themurdernerdBecome a Ko-Fi Member and listen to the UNCUT and UNEDITED versions of episodes like this!https://ko-fi.com/waitwhaaatpodcastMERCH:https://payhip.com/waitwhaaatareyouwatchingShow Recommendations:https://www.amazon.com/shop/waitwhaaatpodcastBigfoot Diaries Available NOW:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BQXVZLSCLeave a 5-Star Review:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wait-whaaat-are-you-watching/id1602004925TIP JAR:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/waitwhaaathttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/waitwhaaat
Hosts Kenny and Mike are joined by two guests for this edition of Faithspotting. Rev. Eric Folkerth and Rev. Melissa Hatch are clergy colleagues of Kenny and Melissa is Mike's marrital colleague. This is Eric's third appearance and we welcome Melissa for her first time as a guest. Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets is a four part series on Amazon Prime. While the Duggars are the hub around which the series is presented, the larger wheel focuses on the larger and, from a Christian perspective, more sinister element, the story of Bill Gothard and the Institute for Basic Life Principles, IBLP. The documentary features interviews with Jill Duggar, the oldest daughter, Jim Bob Duggar's niece, JIm Bob's closest friend from childhood, and men and women who grew up in IBLP households and were able to break away. Faith Spotted: Grace, the Nature of faith vs. seeking to control, Being created in the Image of God, Taking the Lord's name in vain Exodus 20, Let the children come to Me, Matthew 19, Mark 10, Luke 18, Do not place stumbling blocks before children and others Romans 14.
In this episode we go through the life and lies of Josh Duggar. Josh is the son and oldest child of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and a reality TV star from TLC's show 17 Kids and Counting. Just like many other well known "christian" families they tried to bury their family secrets but journalists, hackers, and investigators wouldn't let that happen. Buckle up heathens because Josh Duggar is a disgusting predator and this episode can be hard to listen to at times.

Today we're talking all about the Amazon Prime documentary "Shiny, Happy People," which focuses on the Duggar family and the greater theology behind their beliefs (Bill Gothard's Institute in Basic Life Principles). The IBLP and Gothard have been accused of legalism, double standards, and abuse within their doctrine. We start off with some issues the documentary presents as big problems within Duggar/IBLP theology, which include wives submitting to husbands, gender roles, and modesty, among others. We also share the problems we see with their theology, but discuss how many things like submission and gender roles themselves are actually biblical – the IBLP has just misconstrued, misinterpreted, and misapplied these Biblical commands to create a legalistic, graceless, gospel-less framework that oppresses and represses its adherents rather than setting them free. We share some of the shocking revelations from the documentary series and explain the frustrating angle the filmmakers took in conflating IBLP and fundamentalism with true gospel principles and beliefs. --- Timecodes: (01:19) Intro / Father's Day (13:20) Breakdown of IBLP beliefs (16:50) Duggar doc intro (21:20) Problems with Duggar/IBLP theology from documentary perspective (23:37) Problems with Duggar/IBLP theology from biblical perspective (45:11) Josh Duggar's sentence & Du (48:46) Credibility & criticisms of the doc (57:29) "World domination" & children as arrows (01:02:13) Differentiation of fundamentalism & true Christianity (01:06:21) Interesting parts from the documentary (01:12:11) C.S.

TW: This epoisode contains discussion about religious cults and child physical and sexual abuse. This docuseries currently streaming on Amazon Prime explores the controversial Duggar Family, who starred in TLC's reality show 19 Kids and Counting. Not only does the movie address the family's behaviors, including olderst son Josh Duggar's history of child sexual abuse, but it also dives into Bill Gothard and the cult-like practices of his church, The Institute in Basic Life Principle (IBLP). TLC sanitized the Duggar's dedication to the fringe teachings of Bill Gothard. Exploitation of children, both sexual and otherwise, is endemic in Gothard's organization and teachings.

Today we're joined again by Jinger Duggar Vuolo, author of "Becoming Free Indeed: My Story of Disentangling Faith from Fear," and Jeremy Vuolo to discuss their theology deep dive into Bill Gothard's teachings and how Jinger found herself in gospel truth. In her new book, Jinger shares her theological journey from following a fundamentalist leader to finding freedom in Christ. We discuss the immediate response to the book and some criticisms she has faced because of it. Jeremy shares how his upbringing shaped their theology after they met, and we talk about their study of the Duggars' traditional belief system and Jinger's realization that this theology was not entirely biblical. We also discuss Jinger's brother Josh, who is currently in prison, and how his actions, as well as the media portrayal of Christianity as a whole because of his actions, led Jinger and Jeremy to speak out for the true gospel. We also look at the lies spread about Jessa Duggar Seewald's miscarriage a few weeks ago, which many anti-Christian news sources claimed was an abortion. How do these lies affect Jinger, and how do Jinger and Jeremy cope with this media scrutiny? --- Timecodes: (01:26) Interview begins / response to book (05:40) Jeremy's background & thoughts on TLC show (09:14) Theological differences (14:35) Bill Gothard's teachings (27:44) Marrying Jeremy and scrutiny (30:06) Josh Duggar & real Christianity (42:06) Jessa Duggar Seewald's miscarriage & media lies (45:40) Motherhood (48:30) Reverting to old theology (52:55) Advice for those confronting their theology (58:33) Giveaway winners! --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — change the way you shop for meat today by visiting GoodRanchers.com/ALLIE and use promo code 'ALLIE' for $20 off your first order.

I thought we had closed the book on Josh Duggar after his sentencing in 2022, but his name has popped back up in the news once again.For anyone who isn't familiar with the story thus far – Josh Duggar, of 19 Kids and Counting fame has been at the center of numerous scandals.In 2015, it was revealed that he had molested several of his sisters when he was a teenager.In 2019, Duggar was arrested on charges of possessing child sexual abuse materials.He was eventually found guilty in December 2021 and sentenced to 12.5 years in prison.But on March 17, 2023, a new development emerged.According to Insider, the original date set for Duggar's release was August 12, 2032.However, recent online prison records show that he is now set to be released on October 2, 2032.No confirmed reason for the change has been made public, however, according to Fox News, Josh Duggar has been placed in solitary confinement for being caught with a contraband cellphone.Regardless of the reason for the change in Duggar's sentence, this news is significant. It means that he will spend more time in prison than originally expected - 51 days to be exact.My personal opinion? The more time the better.________________Full Interrogation Audio:https://youtu.be/q1mHZim_mWM________________Support the Preacher Boys Podcast:https://www.patreon.com/preacherboysPurchase a Preacher Boys shirt, mask, sticker, or other merch to rep the show! https://www.teepublic.com/user/preacher-boys-podcast________________Find more stories regarding the IFB movement by visiting:– preacherboysdoc.com– https://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/– https://twitter.com/preacherboysdoc-– https://www.instagram.com/preacherboysdoc/To connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/preacher-boys-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
