Summary
Ash and Michelle kick off the PATREON EXCLUSIVE series at the beginning with The Garden of Eden... creation, nudity and serpents, oh my!
Michelle was in a Pentecostal cult for many of her teen years and learned the Bible like the back of her hand, while Ash grew up with no religious affiliations whatsoever and doesn't know SH!T about it! Yet the Bible is the #1 best-selling book in the world, with over five billion copies sold. Its stories have shaped much of our history, as well as our culture and society today. The gals talk about many cults that sprout from fundamentalist Bible ideology and Ash feels like she should be a bit more informed, and honestly... there's just some crazy ass tales in there that she's dying to hear.
