The Tales We Tell
Ep. 118: Jeffrey Lundgren
Welcome back to Kirtland, OH. We never left! This week, Hannah tells Katy more of this small town’s history and one delusional, evil man who preyed on a small group of people and exploited their fears and religious beliefs, leaving five dead when it was all said and done. Find out how to narrowly interpret religious texts using one very specific rule and then how to forget that interpretation when it no longer serves your needs and you want to justify murder. Also, stay tuned till the end to hear some fun facts about Ohio, including which beloved 90’s sitcom took place there!
This one is definitely a little darker, and 100% infuriating. So pour your drinks, and get comfy!
