Host Spencer Henry brings the spooky on Cult Liter! Each week, he dives into stories from macabre history, true crime, and all things bizarre – always delivered with his quirky personality and humor.

Cult Babes, the time has come to discuss one of the most perverse cults in history, the Children of God. In part one we’re discussing the cults rise to prominence and leader David Berg’s freaky ways.
