This is af fascinating podcast. Thank you.
Gripping to say the least. And to know that there's no federal law against these and it was in 2019 that some states even considered categorizing this horror as a crime is beyond disgusting. Kudos for the great reporting!
Simply un-belieeeeevable. i remember reading about this years ago. This is more in-depth. Interviews with ''family'' members. The one member who says she looks for likenesses in everyone she meets. It must be tiring. I give The Immaculate Deception ☆☆☆☆☆.
Love a witty wordplay in a title. Can’t wait to listen to this. Sounds like an interesting story.
This is a shameful title, and Castbox should be penalized for promoting a show that is disrespecting a sacred Catholic belief. As a previous commenter said, they would never do this to another religion. The show could have been exactly the same with a less disrespectful title.
I totally agree with you, Michael Savage. Killing coyote and other animals with cyanide poisoning is especially inhumane and unnecessary! I hope our President gets your message, but fast!! We are all God's children.
Same thing for us Steeler fans. This isn't about 70's football.
oh dear! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Please consider how your sacreligeous show title affects the millions of people who hold the Immaculate Conception as sacred. You wouldn't do the same with Islam or Hinduism. Then why do so with Catholicism?
On Netflix there's a show called Sister's. It's exactly what this podcast is about. It's a good Show Check it out.
