    What a CreepSeason 31, Episode 2Bill Gothard, founder of the Institute in Basic Life PrinciplesKristen Meinzer from The Nighty on Hatch Plus and Health Matters from the Mayo Clinic joins Sonia Mansfield to talk about creep Bill Gothard, a minister, writer, and the founder of the Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP). The IBLP is a fundamentalist Christian organization that encourages the submission of wives to husbands, procreative sex, the corporal punishment of children, homeschooling, and biblical literalism. Those who’ve escaped it say it goes much further, enlisting coercion, mind control, isolation, sexual abuse, and financial manipulation against its adherents.Sources for this episode:RecoveringGrace.orgQuiverfull: Inside The Christian Patriarchy Movement, by Kathryn JoyceA Well Trained Wife, by Tia LevingsCounting the Cost, by Jill Duggar DillardBecoming Free Indeed, by Jinger Duggar VuoloI Pray You Put This Journal Away, available on SpotifyThe Sojo Files, available on SpotifyLeaving Eden, available on SpotifyShiny Happy People, on Amazon PrimeIBLP.org Chicago Magazine New York Times People magazine Washington Post USA Today The GuardianBuzzFeed NBC News https://inthesetimes.com/article/cult-of-characterThe Sojo Files Leaving Eden Christianity TodayIn Touch WeeklyDuggar Family websiteBe sure to follow us on social media.

  • Bill Maher (replay with new intro)
    Sep 9 2025
    Comedian Bill Maher likes to paint himself as someone who just calls it as he sees it. If you don’t like his jokes, you’re either an ignorant conservative or a liberal snowflake. Well, we also call it as we see it, and we think Bill Maher is a creep.

    Sonia tells us why Bill Maher is a creep with a little help from our friends at:
    • Wikipedia
    • Huffington Post
    • New York Magazine
    • Jezebel
    • The Mary Sue: Rep. Katie Porter vs. Bill Maher
