Hello and welcome back to Cult Leader. I'm your Cult Leader, Spencer Henry, and I'm here to hopefully entertain you in what feels like the end of times. Maybe Chad Daybell isn't so crazy, but really how weird is everything right now. I work from home a lot of the time, so this isn't new to me, especially when I'm not traveling for work.

So I'm used to the daily sit at home on my computer in my apartment vibe, but something about knowing that I'm not supposed to leave during this is driving me nuts.

I normally go out to dinner a lot during the week with my friends, because a lot of us have more creative jobs, and so we work from home, or we work remote.

And so it's our only socialization during the week, but needless to say, I am playing it safe. I'm keeping to myself, staying home, and the good news is that I have nothing to do, but we're covered Cult Leader, so I'll take it, and I don't mean to sound insensitive at all. I know it's a very serious situation, especially where some of you guys live.

So I hope you're all taking the necessary precautions and taking care of yourselves. I'll get off the soapbox in a minute, but I also want you to make sure that the information that you're getting and sharing about the virus is from credible sources, like the World Health Organization, because there's, I mean, just listen to the scientists and doctors.

Okay, like don't listen to the random blogger girl that you follow that says, oh, this is how you can tell if you have corona, like it's not real. Don't do that. Just listen to the doctors and the scientists. They know what they're talking about, and make sure that you're not just spreading this panicked information without necessity and without fact checking.

And make sure that you're taking care of yourself. If you haven't drank any water today, go drink your water, take your vitamins, and I'm sending good vibes to all of the cult babes that don't have the luxury of working from home right now, and those working in the medical fields, because it's a pretty serious situation in the hospitals right now.

But hopefully you can sit back for at least the next little bit here, and I can get your mind off this shit.

I'm going to try and put out a list of my favorite podcasts and TV shows, documentaries, et cetera, and post that at some point this week, because I know everyone's feeling a little stir crazy.

I was talking to my sister Olivia the other day about this all and everything that's going on, and I was like, it reminds me of when we were little and watched the movie Twister for the first time.

It's about tornadoes if you haven't seen it, but it's that feeling of like this ominous weird emergency feeling, and I remember being so in my head about tornadoes when I was a kid, but I like grew up outside of San Francisco.

There was no tornadoes to be had. Needless to say, I've always been concerned and worried about everything I guess.

But I want to get to today's episode because it is fucking wild. I was FaceTiming one of my co-workers, Kristen, who works in PR for the company I work for, and we were talking about I was telling her today's story, like a shorter version of it, obviously over FaceTim.

And she was like, what the fuck? And it made me just even more hyped to tell you guys, because a lot of times before I tell these stories, the only person that hears it is me and or my assistant Madison now, but it's I'm amped. I'm hyped.

Today's episode it's a shorter story, but it's going to get real real real quick. So sit back, let me tell you something about something fair warning right now this story involves sexual assault. So that's your advisory.

Our story today starts with Candice Fwannegee. She's a 23 year old high school graduate from Kipling Saskatchewan in Canada.

She'd been working at a local gas station to make ends meet and she had an infant daughter. On Halloween night in 1992, she was working at the gas station and her boyfriend came to visit her.

The two of them ended up getting into a super heated argument and Candice left in a rage. So her friend works at a nearby hospital, the Kipling Memorial Hospital.

And Candice heads there. She's like, maybe she can talk me down, calm me down a little bit, but unfortunately when she got there, her friend wasn't there. But there was another nurse on duty that she talked to.

And the nurse was kind of concerned. She suggested a Candice that she should see a doctor because Candice was visibly shaken up. She thought maybe she was having an anxiety attack or a panic attack.

And the doctor on call that night was luckily Dr. Schneeberger. And this doctor, Dr. Schneeberger happened to be Candice's primary physician and he had even delivered her baby 9 months prior to this unexpected Halloween visit.
