PODCAST: Emails show which local politician was trying to stop IAS protest for Scientology

[Apostate Alex has the goods on Dick Sweatman]

Well, we’ve done it again. We’ve gone and collaborated with Apostate Alex and we think you’re going to like the result.

Over at his website, Scientology Business, we have a fun piece about some emails Alex obtained with a records request that help explain the shenanigans Scientology that was up to with the help of local officials to try and squelch the IAS protest last November.

We also talked about Dave’s Ideal Org mess and more.

As usual, you can listen to the podcast, above, or watch the video version at our YouTube channel, below.
