| 5/4/26 |  The Killing Curse: Hex Hollow Pt. 1 | In 1920s Pennsylvania, folk magic and Christian faith existed side by side.

In this first installment, Vanessa and Dr. Engels explore the world of Braucherei folk magic, the psychology of curses and belief, and how one man's desperation for answers led him to recruit a deadly team with a dangerous plan.

| 3/26/26 | Heaven's Gate Pt. 2 with Alexis Linkletter and Jac Vanek | In March 1997, as the Hale-Bopp comet passed Earth, 39 members of Heaven’s Gate were found dead in a California mansion, having participated in one of the largest mass suicides in modern U.S. history. They believed their deaths were not an end, but a transition — a deliberate “exit” from human bodies to board a spacecraft trailing the comet. In Part 2, we explore the final days of the group, the psychological mechanisms that sustained unwavering loyalty, and the carefully orchestrated ritual that sealed their fate. Was this collective delusion, coercive control, or the ultimate consequence of charismatic authority unchecked? The tragedy of Heaven’s Gate forces us to confront how far belief can go when doubt is no longer allowed to exist. Then, Alexis Linkletter and Jac Vanek from The First Degree join Dr. Engels and Vanessa Richardson for an extended conversation exploring the legacy of Heaven’s Gate and the enduring questions it raises about belief, manipulation, and the human need for certainty.

| 3/23/26 | Heaven's Gate Pt. 1 with Alexis Linkletter and Jac Vanek | In the 1970s, Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Nettles emerged with a radical message: they were celestial beings sent to guide humanity to the “Next Level.” Over time, their small spiritual study group transformed into Heaven’s Gate — a tightly controlled community built on isolation, strict behavioral codes, and the rejection of earthly identity. In Part 1, Alexis Linkletter and Jac Vanek from The First Degree join Vanessa Richardson and Dr. Engels to help examine how Applewhite’s personal crises, religious fixation, and apocalyptic thinking evolved into a doctrine that demanded total surrender. As members cut ties with family, gave up possessions, and redefined themselves as vessels awaiting ascension, belief slowly became obedience — and obedience became destiny.
