The Joe Rogan

Logan Experience

Train by day Joe Rogan

all day.

So thanks for coming in Michelle. Thanks Joe for having me. My pleasure. I love your man cave. Oh thank you. I really do. It's awesome. Yeah, it's fun. So when I heard your story, I was like this sounds completely insane and just to fill people in just explain what happened?

Well, I was born into a cult, a high control group that I didn't know to call a cult because, you know, I was born there.

Your child.

That was my whole experience. My grandfather started in

1931 so my mother was also born into the cult in the 1940s. My dad was

let's just say he was 12 when he first met my grandfather who would later become his father-in-law and my grandfather became his father-figure.

So my mom was married off to this man who was a follower of her

father and I am the second child of their union. Wow.

And yeah, where did all this take place?

So this took place that he originally started it near LA in Pasadena,

which most people know because of the Rose Parade

and other things like that.

When he first started it, it started, my understanding is he was a boy scout leader

and he was an orphan, he'd come from Oklahoma when he was a young man and the Boy Scouts didn't allow him to have as much control as he wanted to have of the boys.

Oh boy.

So yeah, which is a lot of control.

So he left the Boy Scouts and he took the boys with him and some of the boys from his

original troop in 1931 stayed with him past his death.
