Summary
Kate discusses the new Netflix documentary about Britney Spears’ conservatorship, and this week on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
Nile Cappello, an Executive Producer of The Way Down: God, Greed, and The Cult of Gwen Shamblin, an HBO Max Original documentary series. After rising to fame with her Weigh Down Workshop, a Christian-based diet program that preached slenderness as next to godliness, Gwen Shamblin Lara founded the Tennessee-based church. Despite a carefully curated image, Lara and the church soon fielded accusations of emotional, psychological, and physical abuse, and exploitation for their alleged cult-like practices. Encompassing years of investigation and extensive interviews with former members and others personally impacted, THE WAY DOWN explores the legacy of Remnant’s infamous leader whose life came to a shocking end after a plane crash in May 2021.
