This week Leah and I speak with my wife, Christie. I will add the link as soon as it is live. While there is always a lot of interest in me, Christie has her own story. She is much more than simply my other half. Her entire immediate family, just like mine, disconnected from her when she began to question things and tried to communicate this to them. When our son, Jack, was 6 months old we visited LA and tried to see Christie's parents to introduce them to their grandson. Her mother was sent away to the Freewinds. Her father, who I have never met, is a former pro-linebacker … [Read more...]
The Dark Triad
Frequent commenter Mike Westen has written a follow up article on his blog to his earlier Scientology and Status, entitled The Dark Triad. With his permission I am republishing it in its entirety here: This is a follow up to my previous article, Scientology and Status. virtue signalling noun [U] UK (US virtue signaling) /ˈvɜː.tʃuː ˌsɪɡ.nəl.ɪŋ/ An attempt to show other people that you are a good person, for example by expressing opinions that will be acceptable to them, especially on social media — Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary & Thesaurus To take a … [Read more...]
An Interview with Leah Remini
If you didnt see this on my social media yesterday, I recommend you read this piece in AwardsCircuit.com about The Aftermath. It is pegged to the Emmy nomination for the finale that aired last year (the result will be announced on Monday 14 Sept). Leah talks about the Danny Masterson case and why we didn't air the initial episode we shot. She also discusses the Me Too movement and scientology, the STAND League, scientology tax exempt status and much more. Give it a read. … [Read more...]
Episode 5: The History of Fair Game
In this week's episode, Leah and I discuss the history of Fair Game and the ongoing Fair Game efforts against us. As always, I include a link here to my "summary of Fair Game" entitled: Dealing with Critics of Scientology - The L. Ron Hubbard Playbook. If you have not read this before and have an interest in this subject, I recommend starting with this. Honestly, this is one of the most important episodes of this podcast. It is not disclosing "new' information, but even seasoned scientology watchers and former scientologists will learn things they likely did not know. Few have … [Read more...]
“Justice 4 Mom” Gone Silent After Masterson Charged
What has happened to the "Justice 4 Mom" OSA campaign? Not a peep from them since May 11th. When my daughter Taryn, my ex-wife Cathy and their sidekick Sea Org minders from Gold, Maureen Labordique and Chris Maifield showed up at the Denim Day event in LA last year, they were confronted by Danny Masterson victims who called them on their fakery. Tony Ortega wrote an excellent piece at his blog about it, including a video of some of the discussion that occurred. Of course, Taryn and Maureen denied knowing anything about Danny Masterson, but had detailed false information about Paul … [Read more...]
Fast Eddie Parkin: Scientology Sockpuppet Hypocrite
The sockpuppet who heads the "Stand League", Ed Parkin, is the poster child for scientology crazy. Fast Eddie has been a low-level gofor in the Office of Special Affairs for many years. As I recall, he started out as Heber's administrative assistant sometime in the late 80's or early 90's and has remained a drone since then. He is the "face" of the "Stand League" and he has his "own" Twitter account. Though I have never commented on any of his posts, and he tweets at me often, he has me blocked. So do the Stand League. And like the Stand League and every other OSA twitter account … [Read more...]
Taryn Teutsch & Justice4Mom: Theatre of the Absurd
The scientology campaign to paint me as a monster has gone from dishonest, to ridiculous to utterly absurd. I have chronicled the dishonesty and ridiculous claims of "abuse" plenty of times before, ("Justice4Mom" Advertising on Jezebel, Scientology's Latest Lie About Me, We Did It!, and Mike Rinder: "Lady Killer") as have other blogs. This newest entry uses the "crippled for life" tag rather than "I could hear her bones breaking" and her "shoulder snapping" of earlier posts. But now it’s just bizarre. They come up with any excuse to write a blog post in Taryn's name and this one is … [Read more...]
“Justice 4 Mom” Advertising on Jezebel
I tend to check on my daughter "Taryn's" website occasionally and people send me things of note. Of course, it is her name and image that are being used, it is not "her" website. And there is no proof clearer than the fact they are now paying to advertise on this site. On her Sea Org pay she couldn't afford to buy posterboard to make a sign to hold up on Hollywood Blvd, let alone pay for advertising on a popular web page. Jezebel is a female oriented site that used to be part of the Gawker stable (Gawker was NOT friendly to scientology -- they posted the infamous Tom Cruise IAS Freedom … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Happy Valentine’s Day Messages
Scientology uses any opportunity to try to get people to step inside their buildings. Each of these supposedly non-church activities is part and parcel of the same big ball of wax. And you can bet that if anyone is silly enough to attend any of these things and give their name, phone number or email they will be receiving SCIENTOLOGY promotional materials for the next 100 years. And here is another "Valentine's Day message" put up on my daughter's web page. The twisted logic of this one defies description. My message to you on this Valentine's Day is "hate your father and do everything you … [Read more...]
The Ever Evolving Smear Campaign on Me
The latest from my daughter Taryn Teutsch... Much of the same old stuff, but here is a new addition. The rendition of this story has evolved over the years, despite the fact the clear evidence contained in the Pinellas County Sheriff and EMT reports has not changed. It began with claims that I "attacked" my ex-wife (when she and 6 others and 2 PI's) had followed me and approached me screaming obscenities, all the way to "permanent neuorological damage" to "I could hear the bones breaking" and now "gouged flesh pouring with blood". None of these things are reflected in the … [Read more...]
