On cult leader, I strive for telling stories in a truthful matter, though press media

we are discussing the life and times of a woman named Margaretta Peter.

I will be very, very surprised if any of you have ever heard of her before or this story.

This happened a very long time ago, and while we do dip pretty deep into the past on

here from time to time, I don't know if we've ever actually gone back this far.
