Summary

One of the grosser stories we've lived through over the last several years is that of That 70's Show actor Danny Masterson, who has now been convicted of raping two women in 2003. Especially problematically, he and his victims are members of the Church of Scientology, and prosecutors made a strong case that the church itself worked hard to keep the survivors of his assault quiet for nearly two decades. Since 2004, he's been the boyfriend of and then husband of actress, model, and singer Bijou Phillips, daughter of John Phillips, who responded to his conviction 2023 conviction by filing for divorce. Yes, it's now 2025, and no, not one part of this story is yet wrapped up. Want early, ad-free episodes, regular Dumpster Dives, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?
