Occult Corner: Lauren got sucked into the Twin Flames Universe cult at the recommendation of Emily’s shipping manager, Sarah, and decided to tell Emily all about it. There are several streaming documentary series on this new age cult, Lauren found the Netflix one to have more trauma porn but also allowed cult survivors to tell more of their own story, the one on Prime was a little more removed and focused on the Vice reporter who broke the story in early 2020. Both series interview a queer expert. There was also an episode of the Conspirituality podcast on the cult.
