About this episode
In Episode 531: The Joshua Tree Cult Leader we are joined by James. He reached out after hearing Episode 512: Desert Portal Death Cult because the story being revealed in that episode sounded extremely similar to what he had gone through. James was in charge of soldiers that were getting kicked out of the military and one soldier always stuck out to him more than the others. This soldier lived in a house with other people that would call him "father" and he called them "his children." On an extended weekend, this soldier asked James to take him out to a party in Joshua Tree that had RVs and tents all over which is what was described in episode 512. It turns out we are nearly 100% sure that this location was the exact location from episode 512 but 5 years earlier.
