You're listening to a morbid network podcast.

0:31.0

Hello and welcome back to Cult Leader. I'm your Cult Leader, Switzerland. If you're new to Cult Leader, Cult Leader is a podcast about bad things.

0:42.0

My Cult Babes, I just love you. I posted over the weekend already, but can you guys believe that Cult Leader has been downloaded over 200,000 times, like, are there 200,000 little creeps?

0:55.0

Or just one person that's listened to 199,999 times and that me? I don't know. This episode is going to be weird, I can already tell because it's been a weird time.

1:07.0

I was in use software worker but the weekend was a lot of fun. It was really crazy. A few of you guys reached out with some haunted recommendations. So obviously I obliged. I went where you guys told me to go.

1:17.0

I vlogged as much of it as I could because the Twitter Cult Babes said vlog it. So I will hopefully have that up this week on my YouTube channel.

1:25.0

I have a YouTube channel now, so go find it, do whatever you're supposed to do. On there, I see other people say click the bell, so do that.

1:34.0

Subscribe and like and comment. Just do it. Just do it. Anyways, let's cover some key topics because I know that you guys watched the new Ted Bundy Netflix movie starring Zach Efron.

1:46.0

As you all told me, I was pleasantly surprised. I told you I would give you my opinion on it. So here it is. I thought it was great. And I am a harsh critic. But I thought that Zach Efron did a really good job in the role.

2:01.0

Like I have not seen a Zach Efron movie since high school musical. And so I mean, go Zach. I actually have a funny story about him, but I don't know if it's okay for me to tell some better or not.

2:11.0

So overall, I think they captured they did a really good job. And this is important because this is a conversation that's becoming up a lot in the Drew crime community on social media.

2:21.0

And I think it's really important to remember that Ted Bundy was a piece of shit. Zach Efron is not Ted Bundy. One, I really like I'm not even saying it because of how gross he was, but I really do not think he was even attractive.

2:36.0

I think he just like I can see that he probably came off charming because he was a very confident person, but I don't know. He's a fucking whack job. And anybody that is romantically interested in a person like that is also a whack job. So if you're a whack job, get the fuck out of my cold. But here I am. I'm back in my apartment for three days. And then I leave again.

2:59.0

So before I start internally panicking about everything I need to get done this week, let's talk about a little murder. Shall we?

3:06.0

Like, I don't even know where to start with this one you guys. Cause no offense with this bitch was wild. So of course we're talking about the one, the only Eileen Warnows.

3:16.0

Come on, I lean. I guess we'll start at the beginning because that sounds sounds right. Eileen Pittman, her maiden name was Pittman.

3:33.0

A bound for doom was born on February 29th, 1956 in Fort Wayne, Michigan. Her parents were a whole other kind of situation. Her mom Diane was literally 14 years old when she married Leo Pittman, who himself was just 16 at the time.

3:49.0

Eileen was the second child. She had an older brother, Kevin, who was born the year before her. And surprise, surprise, the parents did not last. They were married for less than two years before Diane filed for divorce.

4:01.0

And it ended about two months before she gave birth to Eileen. Eileen unfortunately never even got to meet her birth father. He was in jail when she was born.

4:11.0

He was convicted of multiple sex crimes against children, was later diagnosed with schizophrenia. And he ended up hanging himself on January 30th of 1969 when Eileen was just 13 years old.

4:22.0

So obviously she ended up taking on her mother's name. And we'll go back to her childhood. Eileen and her brother were often neglected by their mother. Eventually abandoned to be left in the care of their grandparents in January of 1960. Eileen was only four years old at the time. Her brother was five. Eileen and her brother were officially adopted by their grandparents that March.
