Did we finish Shiny Happy People? Yes, but did Shannon's ADHD force us to move on to a newer and more exciting documentary before recording the last SHP episode? Also, yes!! Was Chloe a little thrown by this last minute change...umm...yep. Today we are discussing the docuseries "548 Days: Abducted Online" on Hulu. It's a terrifying story about Patricia Aguilar being lured into a cult online. Because she's newly 18 years old - the authorities, of course, cannot do much to help track her down leaving her family to literally do all the work to get her home.

Sources - the documentary itself with a little help from Wiki to pin down a timeline.

TRIGGER WARNING!! Cults, religious abuse, sexual assault of children and adults, physical abuse of children and adults, and basically anything else you can think of. This docuseries is incredibly heartbreaking.

Shannon and Chloe recap episodes 1 & 2 of the Shiny Happy People Docuseries. We have ALOT of opinions about this one and the conclusion is...this is just another awful male-centric cult. Shocking that the whole basis of the IBLP is fear-based control of children and women - (she says sarcastically.) How is this still happening!!! We also bond over our own run-ins with purity culture!
