(There's been a request to post regular feed episodes on Patreon as well. We thought that made sense, so here's our latest episode a few hours before it's up on all the other platforms!) In this episode, Moira walks Adrian through the long, twisty story of the Moonies -- a story that, somewhat improbably, brings together North Korea, the Hudson Valley, the murder of Shinzo Abe and New England fisheries. And weddings. Just so many weddings.

got my wires crossed and thought we were talking about the goonies until we got to mass weddings!

In Bed With the Right

I made exactly that mistake in writing a few times in scheduling the ep, so full solidarity!

Hearing about the disproportionate number of male births in Korea (up until recently) was really interesting. I’m honestly surprised that I haven’t seen articles mentioning it when discussing sexism there, because it seems like it would be such a major factor.

thanks to this episode, I had a visceral flashback to being 13 on a chatroom for a children's writing magazine, reading about someone's parents who had an arranged mass wedding in Korea. Did some sleuthing and found out that the other 13 year olds on that website were mostly Christian fundamentalists, along with the occasional children of Moonies. Still friends with some of them who turned out to be queer -- something about a nerdy online chatroom exclusively attracted closeted preteen queers and cult members

not relevant to the episode, but as someone who was emotionally scarred by catholic school, i forget that moira is actually catholic. so every time y'all make reference to that, i am thrown for a slight loop 😅

I'll give y'all 50 crisp American dollars to redo the episode as an extended Emily Litella bit, manufacturing details of a Goonie cult.
