Episode One
01/03/2016 Duration: 46minNate Phelps is the son of late pastor Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church (also known as the "God Hates Fags" protesters...and also known as The Most Hated Family in America). What's it like to grow up in the Westboro Baptist Church? And more importantly, what's it like to leave? The story we're taking an entire season to tell is about Rick Dupuy, one of the top leaders of the group the Children of God. Hosted by Tina Dupuy Note: If you're seeing this as a new episode, it's not. We were made aware of some audio issues so we tried to fix them. Same episode though. Sorry for the tease, devotees!
