From the page to the screen, her novel The Polygamist has now taken on a second life as a Netflix series, introducing her storytelling to a global audience and cementing her place as a writer whose work travels far beyond borders. Today, we’re joined by Sue Nyathi — the mind behind the story — to unpack the journey from book to screen, and what this moment means for her, her work, and what comes next.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us Fan MailA brand-new show falls into my lap right before a big premiere, and it turns into a perfect warm-up: Netflix's The Polygamist. It's got 22 tight episodes, heavy subtitles, and drama that starts at a funeral and never lets up. Once I saw the room full of black outfits and the one woman walking in wearing white, I knew exactly what kind of story we were about to get and I was locked in.From there I go full House of the Dragon Season 3 mode. I talk through why Season 1 feels like the intro, Season 2 feels like the setup, and Season 3 looks like the moment the Dance of the Dragons finally turns into pure chaos. I lay out what we already know is coming, what the trailers hint at, which battles could be blended or moved, and where I think the season ends. If you're spoiler-sensitive, consider this your warning, because I also dig into characters and turning points that could define the finale, including my biggest question: who has Otto Hightower right now?Then I switch gears to real life. Oklahoma voters reject State Question 832, a plan to raise the minimum wage to $15 by 2029, even though the current wage is $7.25. I break down how propaganda, election timing, and turnout shape outcomes that hurt working people. I also get into a tough relationship question for parents: what do you do when a partner treats your kid like a threat and the kid's reaction shows fear?If you like sharp TV talk, blunt social commentary, and quick-hit dating takes, hit play, then subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find us.

This conversation I have with my friend Sylvia is one I've been wanting to share for a while. She tells the story of how fear and anxiety almost led her and her family into a polygamist offshoot religion... and the quiet moment at a friend's doorway that brought her back. Sylvia has six kids, homeschools, and has learned to hear God in a way that's woven through her ordinary days.My friend Sylvia is a mother of six, a homeschooling mom, and someone who has been showing up to the Receive Experience call in the mornings. What I love about her story is the honesty of it... she's not pretending she always heard God clearly. She walks us through what it actually felt like to swallow a lie, to feel God's love drain out of her, and then to feel that first little ping of the Spirit returning.Here's what we explore:▪️What it feels like to reach "sideways instead of up" to God▪️The subtle moment of choice she missed before going down a path of fear▪️How logic helped her reason her way back to a loving God▪️The story of Ruth and what it taught her about being led▪️A simple practice for hearing God in the small things (yes, even pancake batter)▪️How Sylvia partners with God in parenting six kids and homeschooling▪️Why God's voice never sounds like condemnation, and what to listen for insteadIf something in this conversation stirs something in you, I just invite you to sit with it.

Why No Children for Joseph Smith’s Plural Wives (Rick B)

Gospel Tangents Podcast

No Children for Joseph Smith? Joseph Smith’s plural wives One of the most frequent arguments raised by skeptics of Joseph Smith’s polygamy is the “fertility paradox.” While Joseph Smith fathered several biological children with his first wife, Emma, there are zero verified offspring from his estimated 30 to 40 plural marriages. DNA testing on suspected plural children has continuously ruled out Joseph as the father in every known case. Does this lack of physical evidence prove his plural marriages were non-sexual? According to a statistical analysis by Rick Bennett and a research team, the absence of children is not a biological impossibility, but rather a predictable outcome of history, biology, and law. https://youtu.be/Zz6BpX2wZd0 Statistical Models of Probability Bennett, alongside a team that included OBGYN Dr. Joseph Stanford, built four statistical models to determine the mathematical probability of Joseph Smith having zero children with his plural wives. These models factored in female ovulation cycles and historical documentation of Smith’s whereabouts, assuming no birth control was used: Restricted & Low Models: Assuming very infrequent relations and excluding teenagers and already-married women, the probability of zero children sits between 22% and 47%. Bennett equates this to a coin flip or rolling a double in Monopoly, making zero children a statistically unsurprising outcome. Medium (Consensus) Model: Assuming one or two encounters around the time of the sealing for a broader group of wives, the probability of zero children drops to roughly 9% to 13%. High Model: Only when assuming large possible historical encounters across 37 women does the probability of zero children become statistically microscopic (around 0.03%). Biological Factors and 19th-Century Demographics A significant reason for the lack of children stems from the demographic makeup of Joseph’s plural wives. At least five women were post-menopausal (over age 47) and 11 were “polyandrous” wives already married to other men. Furthermore, several brides were teenagers. Interestingly, poorer nutrition and rigorous physical labor in the 19th century delayed a woman’s first period (menarche) until an average age of 17, meaning many of the youngest wives were likely prepubescent and physically infertile at the time of their sealings (See Dan Vogel’s presentation.) Contraception and the Concept of “Quickening” If the High Model is accurate and sexual relations were frequent, Bennett notes that the Nauvoo community had widespread access to birth control. Popular texts from the 1830s heavily circulated knowledge about methods like the sponge, withdrawal, and highly acidic douching to prevent pregnancies. Additionally, 19th-century medical and Mormon theological consensus believed that a soul did not enter a fetus until “quickening” (around 20 weeks.) Because of this, early herbal interventions used to “restore the menses” were viewed simply as regulating the female body, rather than as abortion or sin. Legal and Theological Survival Ultimately, concealing pregnancies was an absolute necessity for survival. In Illinois, bigamy and adultery were felonies heavily penalized by fines, whipping, and imprisonment. Under the law, a child would serve as incontrovertible physical proof of illicit cohabitation, inviting immediate legal prosecution and mob violence. To avoid exposure, the theology of plural marriage subtly shifted. While originally grounded in an “Abrahamic” mandate to multiply and raise up seed on earth, the practice pivoted to a “Melchizedek” order. This new paradigm was focused on creating secret, dynastic priestly linkages for eternal salvation in the afterlife, entirely bypassing the legal dangers of earthly procreation. In short, the absence of children in Nauvoo polygamy is not a historical impossibility, but a reality forcefully shaped by 19th-century logistics, biology, and the heavy anvil of American law.

In this Feedback Friday field trip, I take you directly into the heart of Short Creek, known today as Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona. It once was the historic stronghold of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the FLDS. This is the community built around plural marriage, prophetic control, and absolute obedience, led for decades by self-proclaimed prophet Warren Jeffs, now serving life in a Texas prison for sexually assaulting young girls. As we drive through the streets of this once-sealed polygamist enclave, we stop at key locations that defined FLDS power: the massive compound built by Warren Jeffs' father Rulon Jeffs to house eighty-seven wives, the offices where obedience was enforced, and the meeting house where men were stripped of their families from the pulpit. You'll see where Jeffs escaped federal arrest, how the United Effort Plan centralized wealth and control, and how law enforcement was sidelined by church authority. We'll revisit the scars of history, including the infamous 1953 Short Creek Raid, the infant cemetery that still haunts investigators, and the burial grounds reserved only for the faithful. Along the way, we talk about secret police, hidden caves, the collapse of the FLDS corporate structure, and the uneasy reality that Warren Jeffs still exerts influence from behind prison walls. #Polygamy #PluralMarriage #FLDS #WarrenJeffs #RulonJeffs #ShortCreek #Hildale #ColoradoCity #ShortCreekRaid #1953Raid #FLDSCrimes #CultCrime #ReligiousAbuse #CoerciveControl #CriminalCults #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CultSurvivors #PolygamyAbuse #ChildAbuseAwareness #FLDSHistory #CrimeDocumentary #ProfilingEvil #JusticeForVictims #HumanTrafficking #ReligiousExtremism #CultAccountability ========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================FLDS StoryMap: https://arcg.is/0Gm4r1 ========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

Green stuck with LeBaron until his death in 1996. On his deathbed, LeBaron reportedly did not name a clear successor but charged both Tom Green and Jerry Barlow to carry on his work. Green leveraged this instruction, claiming he had received higher temple ordinances from Ross, thereby being “anointed and appointed”. Green briefly formed a group spanning the late 1990s into the early 2000s, attempting to unite Ross's followers under his leadership. Green achieved notoriety by making numerous radio and television appearances about polygamy, frequently showcasing his plural family. Tom Green’s Prison Sentence However, his public profile led to his downfall when it was discovered that one of his wives was underage. The state of Utah prosecuted him for child polygamy and welfare fraud, seemingly intending to “make an example of him,” particularly because of his media exposure. Green was convicted in 2002 of child rape and served a prison sentence, which lasted five years. He was released on parole on August 7, 2007. After his incarceration, his group largely fell apart. Attempts at Succession Tom Green sought community, particularly as his children grew and needed partners for marriage. He decided to join the Kingston Group, viewing them as a successful example of a united order and plural marriage, noting their economic success in business despite negative press. He maintained, however, that he never recanted the authority he had received from Ross LeBaron. Green remained on parole for at least 14 years before dying from COVID-19 at age 72 on February 28, 2021. Green represents one of several factions that emerged after LeBaron's death, alongside the independents and the group led by Fred Collier. LeBaron’s mission centered on ordaining patriarchs and establishing a patriarchal pattern, an effort that continues today through independent groups and men who trace their authority back to Ross and Tom Green. Fred Collier, another key figure who worked closely with Ross (the religious innovator) as the one who “wrote it up” and added stability through systematization, also claimed succession after separating from Ross in 1983. Tom was one of the best known polygamists in the early 2000’s due to his quest for publicity. It is likely the reason that other fundamentalists avoid publicity, as they see that it often brings more trouble than it is worth.

Did Joseph smith Practice Polygamy? We decided to explore what it would mean if the Polygamy deniers were right… and frankly, if they are right… we have some major problems.Polygamy denialist' “Faith Package”1. Accept the belief JS did not practice plural message.2. Reject, as deceptions, the testimonies of the Church's highest leaders (ERS, ZH, BS, BY, JT, WW, and LS) after 1844 regarding their eyewitness accounts of JS's introduction of the practice of plural marriage. Accept that the Church's highest leaders for 50+ years were deceivers.3. Reject D&C 132 and its teachings, including those describing how JS had authority to create eternal families.4. Reject the temple endowment because nothing concerning it was recorded during Joseph Smith's lifetime. Instead, it represents the 1877 recollection of Joseph Smith's 1843 teachings, recorded by Wilford Woodruff, who also recalled how Joseph practiced plural marriage in 1843.5. Reject President Russell M. Nelson's teachings and the recent post on the Church's website that affirm: “Joseph Smith introduced the practice, not Brigham Young.”Our LinksWebsite: http://thoughtfulfaith.orgInstagram:   / thoughtful.faith  TikTok:   / thoughtful.faith  Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1478749DISCLAIMER: The views expressed in this video are entirely the opinion of the creator and do not necessarily reflect any officially endorsed positions of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints or channel sponsors.

In this episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with his good friend Thomas Dockstader — author of The Chi Codes, founder of The Chi Codes company, and a powerful leader inside “We Are The They.” Raised in a strict FLDS polygamist community under Warren Jeffs, Thomas shares the raw details of growing up inside a closed-off religious sect, being indoctrinated daily, and the moment he chose to walk away from it all at just 18 years old. His early life reads like a movie — from wearing pilgrim-style clothes in West Jordan to working grueling construction jobs across the Southwest while hiding his true family story.Thomas opens up about how childhood shame, hidden trauma, and deeply buried beliefs led him down a path of severe alcoholism, multiple marriages, and even a near-suicide attempt on his front lawn. But this story is far from over. He dives into the moments that transformed him — the life-threatening coma from a brutal assault, the pivotal realization that alcohol was only masking deeper pain, and the way transcendental meditation and ayahuasca ceremonies ultimately led him to profound self-acceptance and purpose.Today, Thomas is eight years sober and dedicates his life to helping others break through their own patterns of shame and addiction. He shares how he turned his past into a mission — offering his teachings, free courses, and powerful message of hope to anyone ready to heal. Whether you've faced addiction, struggled with identity, or just want to hear an incredible redemption story, this conversation will hit home and leave you inspired.
