and special behind-the-scenes features you won't hear on any other airwaves. The debaters 20th

anniversary season, comedy, worth arguing about. This is a CBC podcast. Hello, escaping nexium listeners.

We wanted to share something really special with you this week.

It's an episode from a new podcast we've been completely hooked on from Rocco Punch

and I Heart Podcasts.

The Turning River Road, season three, tells the story of Lindsay Tornambi, who was just 13 years old

when she was chosen by the leader of her family's cult for a so-called special role.

She became one of the youngest maidens of the River Road Fellowship in rural Minnesota.

After a ritualistic ceremony that bound her and other young girls to their leader,

she endured more than a decade of psychological and physical abuse hidden from the outside world.

But eventually, Lindsay and a friend made a daring escape, becoming the whistleblowers who sparked

an international manhunt in 2014, one that brought the entire cult crumbling down.

Here's the first episode titled The Camp. You can find the Turning River Road wherever
