Summary

In the prior episode "The Rise of Natureboy" we heard Natureboy describe the life he lived prior to his spiritual awakening as Bishop (a male model / stripper / salon owner). In this follow up episode, we will continue the story and attempt to answer the question "Who is Natureboy… and how does an American model turned stripper end up leading a religious group in Costa Rica?"

Welcome back to an ongoing series covering the unusual story of Kala Reed.

In part one I provided a timeline of the key moments of Kayla's disappearance and reappearance.
