Summary

Look guys, cults are bad. HECK. We can all agree. But sometimes they do stuff that's just crazy for us to tell the story of anyway. In 1993, a Japanese cult that had spread throughout the world, may have just done something as crazy as nuking the Australian desert in an effort to bring about a new armageddon. Sound wild enough for y'all? It's wild enough for us - so strap into your seats, and hold onto your butts - it's another episode of The What If? Podcast.
