You're listening to a morbid network podcast.

Hello, and welcome back to Cult Leader. Welcome to the new listeners. Hello to my cult fam. I'm your cult leader, Spencer Henry.

And it is Christmas Eve. It's not actually Christmas Eve right now while I'm recording, but when you hear this, it's Christmas Eve.

So happy Christmas Eve if you're into that.

I am in the future. It's cold. And I'm in the Bay Area right now where I'm from. I asked you guys on Instagram, like, where are you guys from?

And so many of you, I got so many responses from people just all over the world, which is so cool. Like, I love the internet for that.

And it's cool. You go, they're like, I listen from Chile. I listen from blah, blah, blah. Like, how cool is that? I think it's cool.

So I'm on the phone the other day. And I'm talking to my friend Carolyn and she's like, hey, have you heard about the Weepy Boys killer?

And so before she could finish, I was already like googling Weepy Boys killer because it just sounded so weird. And I'm at the end and not drive through.

And I just started playing it and I didn't realize it was like going through my speakers. So all of a sudden, like, was this man's voice?

And it's so creepy. And I wish I like almost hadn't heard it. And so sorry. But I'm gonna, I'm gonna play all his clips throughout the episode.

So don't, don't need dare fucking move. Don't you press that pause button because if you pause me to go listen to him, you're just gonna have to hear it again. And that's why this isn't working.

I'm just kidding. So here, here's like a sneak peek of what he sounds like.

Just playing this with a little magic thing.

What the fuck you guys? I hope that freaked you guys out as much as it freaked me out because honestly to me, there's nothing more terrifying than knowing that that voice is coming out of Eggroan.

Man, with a mustache. The man behind the voice, Paul Stefani. Let's start with him.

I'll give you a quick background on Paul. I kind of want to like fast forward through his adolescence because it wasn't anything like there's nothing at least out there in public that like crazy that happened to him to make him like he is now.

And I feel like it's not super important. So we'll get the basics. He was born in 1944 in Austin, Minnesota. So the other Austin not to be confused with Austin, Texas, which I love Austin, Texas.

I don't know if I would love Austin, Minnesota, but maybe I know that there's a lot of abandoned streets, which we'll get to in a minute.

So he let us somewhat simple life growing up. He had nine siblings and they were raised in a household that was fueled by religion. His parents put the fear of God into their children. And growing up, he definitely felt pressure to like abide by his parents rules, but he struggled a lot.

I think I just fucking malfunction. He's more like, it sounds like when like a toy is dying, like the batteries are dying and something.
