Show Notes
Crack open the door on one of the world’s most intriguing and controversial faiths: The Jehovah’s Witnesses.

From apocalyptic roots and bold predictions to relentless evangelical hustle, find out how a tiny group of contrarian Bible students gradually built one of the largest doomsday cults on earth.
