Short Suck #30 - Sherlock Holmes and Spiritualism

The story behind the new Iron Claw movie starring Zac Effron and Jeremy Allen White. Was the Von Erich wrestling family actually cursed? I understand why some people think so. Five out of six of wrestling star Fritz Von Erich's sons would die prematurely and tragically, many of them dying shortly after the family became the most famous family in all of professional wrestling. Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/T6Rc-_-Bk04Merch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

Whether or not you've seen the recent Amazon and/or Netflix docuseries on Twin Flames Universe, I think you're gonna love this one. Another cult episode, but with a few major twists. This cult was born and still lives primarily online. And rather than selling salvation, it's focused on selling you romance. Jeffrey and Shaleia Divine are true grifters, playing with the lives of their followers in strange and dangerous ways. Also - Happy New Year! Let's tear it up in 2024!  Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/dPmEWnMGRw8Merch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

Did you know the term "incel" no longer generally refers to someone who is just lonely and horny? Now, it's more synonymous with a new kind of domestic terrorist. A rise in mass shootings carried out by self-identified "incels," starting with Elliot Rodger in 2014, has more and more people looking into the "manosphere" that incels digitally inhabit. It's a sad and terrifying place... and also - holy shit, is it unintentionally also hilarious. Get ready to learn all about Chads, Stacys, Tyrones, Brads, Changs, Beckys, being wristmogged, skullmogged, and more, you mid-tier normie Chadlite! Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ph7jfsXgg3gMerch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

I know - this episode is a long one! I tried to cut as much as I could that didn't feel relevant to tell this tale. I really did! There's just so much juicy stuff. So many strange, STRANGE details. Lori evolved, over the course of her adult life, from a manipulative person who was also very religious, into a murderous, manipulative person who became, essentially, the co-leader of a cult when she met her fifth and final husband, Chad Daybell. Chad had, over many years as an LDS author, created a fictional, apocalyptic world that he then later said was actually a real world based on his many prophetic visions of the future. Visions he was able to have thanks largely to two near death experiences. In Chad's vision of the world, there are lightworkers and zombies - angels and demons - continually battling for supremacy as we accelerate quickly into the End Times. And he and Lori were to gather 144,000 of God's most faithful and lead them into battle. And along the way, spells must be cast, zombies must be slayed, and, well, it's all just so insane. Hope you find this episode's subject matter as captivating as I did!Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Fo7YD582ANAMerch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord!  https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious private Facebook Group?

I finally look into what all the hype about the Murdaugh family murders is about. And the hype... is justified. I provide a summary of the Murdaugh's history of power and influence in South Carolina's Low Country and how a series of financial crimes and murders led to the collapse of their corrupt rural empire. Alec Murdaugh is a TERRIBLE human being... and I'm so glad that snake will rot in prison for the rest of his life. BAD MAGIC GIVING TREE: Go to Amazon.com and purchase an Amazon gift card if you want to donate.
