This week we take a deep dive into the Church of Scientology and their relationship to (and obsession with) celebrities. From alleged cover-ups, arranged marriages to using the charisma of the celebrity to spread their beliefs far and wide, there is no Scientology without the A-list celeb, and seemingly nothing they won’t do to keep their A-listers loyal followers.In this episode we cover the beginnings of this profitable relationship and how it was always L Ron Hubbard’s wish to be a celebrity Church. We also talk about how John Travolta got involved with Scientology, how they helped his career and reputation before casting him aside and how now, they seem to be doing little to cover his tracks. Of course we take a look at Tom Cruise, the Church’s alleged #2, and how the organisation have curated relationships, staff and an entire life for their most famous and devoted member.

In 1991, Conor and Sheila O’Dwyer vanished without a trace from their home in Fermoy, County Cork—an elderly couple with no reason to disappear, yet it took three weeks before anyone noticed. Their disappearance remains one of Ireland’s most baffling mysteries, made even stranger by the fact that another man went missing in his car just a year earlier, only for his remains to surface 22 years later. In this episode, we unravel the chilling details, explore possible theories, and ask: how can two people simply cease to exist?
