What are orgasm cults and how did they originate in the U.S.?
Call zone media. Behind the Bastards! That's the podcast you're listening to right now. Worst people in all of history. We tell you all about them. All about them? This has been a rough year for a lot of us here at Behind the Bastards. We've talked about a lot of pedophiles. And I'm tired of talking about pedophiles. There are pedophiles in this episode, but they're not the primary focus of the episode. Jamie Loftus, how are you doing today? I'm sorry for saying pedophiles right before introducing you.
My name was so close to pedophiles.
That didn't wind up working well. And today we're talking to the biggest one of them all. We landed the white whale. I just was like, oh, I wanted to go right into the title, but then I hadn't introduced you. And I was like, I should introduce Jamie before the title. But I also, part of me was like, should I introduce the title and then bring in Jamie? I don't know. I did it the wrong way. I'm sure about that. I have one complaint at the start here. Robert, why are you not wearing a hat? I don't like hats. It's true. Where's your statement hat? I don't have a statement hat, but Jamie, you are wearing a Theranos hat right now. I am. A well-worn one. A well-worn one. Yeah, Theranos hat that's been around the block.
It's kind of rusting. Yeah, it looks like fucking Liz Holmes sweat through that thing while she was waiting to hear she was getting indicted.
Yeah, I actually contributed to her bail fund and she mailed this to me.
Iconic. I'm wearing a hat that feels very appropriate for today's episode. It says disappointment awaits.
Yeah. Yeah. You're both going to get what you want today because we are, Jamie, talking about a Silicon Valley cult led by a female grifter. And best of all, it's an orgasm cult. It's an orgasm cult, everybody.
Beautiful times.
And then the crowd bursts into applause. They're like, you muscled through six weeks of pedophiles to get to the orgasm cult.
We did it, folks.
Yeah, yeah. Oh, thank God. It's like washing your face in a stream, only actually this is very abusive and a lot of people get hurt. Well, it is behind the bastards, buddy. Disappointment awaits. But we get to laugh at like, Silicon Valley starter fucking shit getting mixed in with like traditional cult abuse techniques it's very fun um and we love to see women in a leadership role exactly a woman who is who is really really hurting and taking advantage of a lot of men in a way that does even the scales on this show somewhat like if you're just sort of interesting it'll it starts the process after She goes through a lot of guys. After Spectre and Savile. Thank you. Yeah. I mean, Savile imbues a lot of boys, too, Sophie.
That's fair. But I want to hear about a woman. Let's hear it. Yes. So we're going to talk. Who is this person? Yeah. I'm going to guess there's a good chance you haven't heard her name. She's Nicole Dodone. Like D-A-E-D-O-N-E. How many times is the word clitoris in the script? A lot, Sophie. I see it in the third paragraph. Can we get a control F on this? Yeah, I just got really excited. I avoided it, but I used a couple of synonyms. So here's the thing. Twelve times. How many times is vagina in the script? Only six times. Only the cult is based around this lady comes up with a has an idea that like if you get a bunch of women in a room and you have a partner masturbate them in a room, sometimes with hundreds of people watching, it creates this sort of like magical energy effect that has a bunch of health benefits.
Yeah.
It's like an operating theater approach to Cummings.
Yeah, that's exactly what they do. That's exactly the heart of the grift, Jamie.
Okay, okay, I'm listening.
It's going to be really fun. So what's also really fun about this is that this practice, getting all these people in a room, I mean, sometimes it was one person at a time, but masturbating... people in public totally detached from sex, right? Number one, it is only vaginas and clitorises being like manipulated, right? Like that's the, this is not like a multi-organ kind of deal. And number two, this is not supposed to be erotic.
