In this episode, Lisa and John dive into the provocative and dangerous world of Rod of Iron Ministries, an offshoot of the Unification Church led by Sean Moon.
They explore the group's intense practices, including militaristic church services, bizarre rap sermons, and apocalyptic ideologies. Sean Moon's transformation into 'King Bullethead' and his use of rap to spread radical, often transphobic and misogynistic messages are discussed.
Lisa recounts her firsthand experiences attending the church's open-carry events and services, where she witnessed the group's extreme political stances and cult-like devotion to gun culture and Donald Trump.
