The indoctrination of Scientology is a wonder to behold. I was a true believer for more than 46 years.
Hubbard’s system of brainwashing is one of the best. I’m sorry for Gail and her daughter Emily. However, every person makes choices. Emily is now dealing with some pretty intense blowback regarding her being in the cult and her euphemistic statement regarding Danny Masterson.
All this has prompted me to write a song for Tony’s substack subscribers. After all I was a rocker way back when.🎸🎶
Hah! they were still using my microphone lifting system in 2006! You can see it in action, though of course they cut away from it while it is actually moving.
When Miscavige is at the microphones, you can't see the microphone bodies at the bottom of the goosenecks. When Gail is at the podium, they have moved up to show their tops just above the podium surface. Shows that Gail is taller than Dave, something that would not be obvious to the audience.
Sometime they changed to the more traditional microphone setup, directly in front of the speaker. Don't know if that has a motorized lifter to hide evidence of the diminutive dictator's height issues. It is now rare for other speakers to share the podium, so they can set it up for Dave only.
Fun fact - the motorized worm gear setup I used to make the lifter was originally installed in a big transfer switch that could switch the whole base over to generator power. Later we changed to more traditional SF-6 blowout switches, and I stole the motorized system for the podium microphone lifter. It got a real workout when Lurch (I mean Snr C/S Int) came to the microphone!
Why does Gail Armstrong put up with being taken out of the RPF and giving speeches and then go back to the RPF? Mike Rinder and Marty Rathbun escaped because of that yo yo. Xenu alone knows how many others jumped the fence and ran away because of 'heavy ethics'. $cientology is not a friendly place, you will toe the line, lift that barge and kiss your supervisors behind if you want to stay on Staff or the Sea bOrg. So why stay? Some parts of the human psyche elude me.
a) The OSA Int eval. A whole small book of weeds details of this horrible horrible document, no, a full book on the whole wrong fact that OSA even exists, and then OSA has evals done on it, always blaming OSA staffers, I see Kurt Weiland gets the most blaming, LOL, not even Mike Rinder!!! Kurt ought to have blown by now. And Linda Hamel did the eval, she blames herself and NEVER blames Miscavige, and Misavige gets the only "PLUSPOINTS" as being the great person above OSA. A book on the whole eval being a huge blame everyone except Miscavige, and never blame Hubbard for even creating this cult Guardian's Office/Office of Special Affairs. And omitted blaming Hubbard for the whole Scientology quackery "services" being dismal failures. The only pluspoint, in history, is the moment in the end of LRH's life when he briefly and without doing anything to fix his mistakes, when LRH admitted he'd failed. That's the pluspoint of the Scientology mess, the moment LRH admitted he failed. The eval on OSA is a big rotten joke, falsely blaming the people following impossible order to succeed with Hubbard insane goals to destroy psychiatry, etc, etc. Hubbard was a failure loon, and no Hubbard "eval" cult policies can fix the quackery root problem, since Scientology is selling quackery.
b) The Debrief 2 is grounds for doing a comedy of cult bureaucracy idiocies. "A Day In The Lives of the Top Cult Bureaucrats Trying to Please Miscavige" could be made from this debrief's details.
This Underground Bunker, these docs, the contributions of ex members, is overwhelming in details
The recent song done by Geoff Levin, is brilliant, and just simplifying the Hubbard massive cult mess down to being a "crock".
That to me is the simplest final conclusion, Scientology is a crock, a con, a "show to keep going on the road" Hubbard says over and over.
Just brilliant docs, thanks so much Marc Headley for putting these in the public domain, this blog is priceless for deep weeds into the pathological nature of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard's baby doing evil to the staffs and followers, and to the world.
Thanks Chuck. When I’m writing lyrics now I try to stay away from to many clichés. So when a fun unusual word comes up it’s fun for me. I studied lyric writing for many moons. It’s a wonderful art form.
In the "Anti Drug" Gail Armstrong script, the final words, a quote from Hubbard, just the final final words I like today in hindsight to take out of context, and really those final words to me ARE the Hubbard con admission, right from L. Ron:
".....[skip all the boring LRH verbiage, it's all lies and PR] keep the show on the road." LRH
Scientology is LRH's "show". LRH wrote the con full script for the big Scientology official movement today.
It's a show.
LRH wrote it all just like a big cult bureaucratic strategic world and universe "show" to be kept on the road, and keep up the con.
Keep the show on the road, is something LRH said over and over, meaning instead to keep the serious official movement going. But it factually is just a big con show.
So Hubbard's figurative "keep the show on the road" to me today is the truth, and isn't figurative.
I find Gail's speech to be full of hypocrisies: How about SAY NO to sexual abuse, molestion, rape, slavery, human trafficking, poverty? Those I could applaud. I now many of you were born into SCN, I feel so greatful you're out and seeing things clearly.
Since when is the UN (a subsideriary to the United States of America Corporation) involved in humanitarian concerns, such as no drugs. Is SCN really that stupid? Do they not know the CIA (a private corporation) are known as Cocaine Importers of America? Don't get me started on the other Alphabet Soups. I watched as much of the BS as i could stomach.
Tony and Chris--I love your updates and this one was right up there with the rest--great stuff. 💜
Marc is always a treasure trove of documents and information.

You're still a rocker, Geoff!!!
Thanks Verity. That’s true. Wait till you hear my next song for Tony!
Can't wait! I feel it's going to be epic, Geoff. I loved your last song and many of your others.

It’s probably hard to really understand a ‘prison of the mind’ fully unless you’ve been there.
Be thankful you don’t.
I wondered the same thing. Especially after being thrown in the "Hole". So glad many of you walked away and are assisting others.
Thanks for the full video! Great second dish after Marc’s Spy Files 🍽️
Just incredible, two documents from Marc:
a) The OSA Int eval. A whole small book of weeds details of this horrible horrible document, no, a full book on the whole wrong fact that OSA even exists, and then OSA has evals done on it, always blaming OSA staffers, I see Kurt Weiland gets the most blaming, LOL, not even Mike Rinder!!! Kurt ought to have blown by now. And Linda Hamel did the eval, she blames herself and NEVER blames Miscavige, and Misavige gets the only "PLUSPOINTS" as being the great person above OSA. A book on the whole eval being a huge blame everyone except Miscavige, and never blame Hubbard for even creating this cult Guardian's Office/Office of Special Affairs. And omitted blaming Hubbard for the whole Scientology quackery "services" being dismal failures. The only pluspoint, in history, is the moment in the end of LRH's life when he briefly and without doing anything to fix his mistakes, when LRH admitted he'd failed.
