About this episode

CC292: Kail and Lindsie share their opinion on couples who see marriage in their future versus couples who decide marriage is not necessary. Lindsie loves the story of the woman who got revenge on a cheating husband and Kail wants to know why it's cheaper for men to get waxed compared to women.
Lara Smith from the four part documentary Shiny Happy People joins the show to talk about her experience in the IBLP (Institute for Basic Life Principles), how she was able to get out and how to this day the ideas of Bill Gothard are still prominent around the country.
