We have another episode of listener questions this week. I will add the link as soon as the episode is available. The topics this week include: Why is scientology popular with dentists? What happened to Pat and Annie Broeker? And much more. We mention a couple of items that I promise to include here and on the fairgamepodcast.com site. The first is the "LRH Departure event" where David Miscavige, Pat Broeker and lawyer Earle Cooley spin the tall tale about the final days of L. Ron Hubbard. The second is a list of recommended reading from Leah: Here is a partial list of … [Read more...]
Curious?
Scientology continues to run this stale campaign -- the photo above was taken by one of our readers (Doug Sprinkle) 3 days ago. This is the sign in front of "Big Blue" on Sunset Blvd. Here's what Doug said: I'm in Los Angeles and I drove by big blue. I thought you might find the attached picture funny. I rode around the building and the security guy on the bicycle seem to be looking at me suspiciously. I saw several people running around in a hurry but they all appeared to be staff. I saw one person going in the building that looked like she might have been public. If … [Read more...]
“The Aftermath” Song
Thursday night we witnessed a wonderful performance by a very talented young woman at the annual ChildUSA Gala. McKenna Gray composed and performed her latest song, "The Aftermath": These are the lyrics: THE AFTERMATH VERSE 1 We don't get to choose where we grow up Or who stays in our lives when we are young. What happens behind closed doors is something we could never stop. Don't believe the lies they told you. It was never your fault. CHORUS: This isn't how it was meant to go. It's so easy to lose who we are in the undertow. But we're not just some rubble left … [Read more...]
Regraded Being
You Were Clear Once
OK, so how does this work? You were Clear until the time you decided you should invent a reactive mind for yourself. Apparently something you created because you were bored? Then you forgot you created it. Trilli9ons of years later, L. Ron Hubbard "discovered" this and told everyone that addressing it (with an accompanying payment) with Dianetics would get rid of it. And that this would solve all your ills. And then after you paid for enough auditing to "go Clear" you would come to the realization that you were just "mocking it up" and that it was an illusion all along. So, if the object is … [Read more...]
Ron: The Epic Saga of BS
The smoke and mirrors game that scientology plays concerning L. Ron Hubbard is pretty remarkable. This "monumental hardback collection" is hardly a recounting of a "life like no other." It is a carefully selected collection of anecdotal stories about things L. Ron Hubbard said or claimed about his life. Many of them are unverified, unable to be documented because they didn't happen. Charitably, Hubbard told "tall tales" about his life and exploits. Realistically, he simply lied about himself. The author of these "books" (they were originally "magazines") is Dan Sherman. The "LRH … [Read more...]
Episode 13: Listener Questions Part 1
Tonight we have the first "Listener Q & A" episode. I will post the link as soon as its available. We asked you for questions and you came through! Many more than we could possibly answer in a single episode. So, we will no doubt do more of these. Your question may have made the list this week. We covered a broad range of topics, from scientologists coming back after death, to the 411 on Leah's fingernails. A couple of things I mentioned that we would put up on the website (and here)... The reference concerning how pc folders are kept for future lifetimes. The … [Read more...]
What Is Needed?
What is needed? You don't need to tune in to get an answer to this question. It is IAS Anniversary event month and there is no IAS event. They are scrambling... Money, money, money is what is needed. It’s the only thing that is ever needed. “We need to keep our 4th dynamic campaigns going that are helping billions of people every week... blah blah blah” Hubbard laid it out: MAKE MONEY. MAKE MORE MONEY. MAKE OTHER PEOPLE PRODUCE SO AS TO MAKE MONEY. Scientology is exclusively about money. If an activity does not generate income it dies a very fast death in the scientology … [Read more...]
Heads I Win, Tails You Lose
Scientology recently tweeted this attack on Tony Ortega. Not sure why, they didn't write a new article. They just regurgitate the same old stuff. But they felt the need to "Dead Agent" him newly, probably because he has put out all the Black Ops videos... What is interesting about this is that they claim Tony Ortega is not an expert on scientology and thus is unqualified to comment on the subject. A couple of points to note. First, for supposed champions of "free speech," this is very hypocritical. One can only speak if you are an "expert"? Then how does Ed Parkin comment on a journalist … [Read more...]
