Cory starts the episode with a brief review of Steve Bannon, the chief strategist inside the Trump administration and helps shed light on some revealing and troubling comments made in 2014. 

So much left from Part 1 to get to! The second half of L. Ron Hubbard's biography gets a discussion, followed by the rise of the early Church of Scientology including the infamous Sea Org and its abusive practices.

What is Going Clear, and how does one achieve it? What are engrams? Who is the mysterious David Miscavige at the center of the modern Church, and where the hell is his wife?

No in-depth discussion of Scientology would be complete without an overview of the celebrity weirdness surrounding it. Tom Cruise, John Travolta and others are discussed as they pertain to the theology, as well as some less famous key players who have left the Church over the decades.

Stay tuned until the end, we have some big news about the show!!
