Podcast Overview
<p>Marc Headley worked at Scientology’s secret desert compound, which houses all Scientology management, for 15 years. The 500-acre property is located deep in the California desert. The local townspeople were told lectures and films were made there. But is that all that was happening? It is the location of a multi-million dollar home for L. Ron Hubbard, built two decades after his death. It is the home of Scientology’s current leader, David Miscavige. So what really happens at the Int Base? Are the stories on the internet true? How does Scientology conduct management of its day-to-day operations? Could stories of armed guards, weapons, staff beatings, and razor wire fences be true? If so, how could a facility like this exist in modern-day America? Hundreds of staff tried to escape over the years. Some succeeded but were never seen or heard of again, and most failed. Why were people kept here? What really went on at the headquarters of Scientology? This is the story of what happened behind the Iron Curtain of Scientology.</p>

We power up the Mark VIII (Hubbard Professional Mark Ultra VIII), walk through what auditors focus on, and then show what’s actually inside, including a detail you can’t unsee once you hear it: the circuit boards are dated 2004, even though the device was sold years later as the latest breakthrough. If you’ve ever wondered why ...

Space Cootie Detector Built By Ten-Year-Olds - Secrets of Scientology #11
Send us Fan Mail You’re told the Scientology e-meter is a “religious artifact” and a precision guide for spiritual counseling, but nobody ever wants you to look inside it. So we do the one thing Scientologists are NOT allowed to do: we open an e-meter on camera, read Scientology’s own technical definitions, and then compare the mythology to the wiring, boards, connectors, and the policies that keep members paying and compliant. We talk through how the e-meter is used in Scientology auditing ...
