The Children of Thunder – Cults, Control & a Whole Lotta Crazy
This week, Heather dives headfirst into the unhinged true story of The Children of Thunder — a deadly doomsday cult led by Glen Taylor Helzer, a former Mormon turned self-proclaimed prophet with more red flags than a NASCAR race 🚩🏁
Along for the wild ride? His brainwashed little brother Justin Helzer and their disturbingly devoted follower Dawn Godman, who proves that blind faith + bad decisions = total disaster. 💀🙃
From spiritual scams to straight-up murder plots, this trio believed they were chosen to usher in a new era of peace... by doing the exact opposite. And yep — it’s just as messy as it sounds.
🧠 In this episode:
⚡ Heather breaks down the cult insanity one WTF at a time
⚡ Sibling manipulation that’ll make you text your therapist
⚡ Dawn’s devotion goes way beyond creepy
⚡ True crime with a sassy side of side-eye
If you're into cults, chaos, and crime with a twist of comedy, this one’s for you 💅
