Was David Berg a manipulator?
Cultist David Berg was a magnificent manipulator of the hippies. It’s unclear if that had to do with their taking too many drugs and being susceptible already, or if he was really just that good. Well, since it begged an investigation, LPOTL took up the mantle and examined the profits of the prophet of the Children of God. This episode is gross. And raucous. And creepy. So creepy.
Does comedy work?
As the listener, you want the LPOTL material to be so farcical, so absurd, that any attempt to find reason fails. But that isn’t the case.

Episodes 50-60 - "BTK"
It took a while for Last Podcast to find its footing but their BTK series was the first glimpse of what the show would become in the future.
