Episode 16: Congregation for the Light

You might think Manhattan's best kept secret is that swanky new underground club you and your friends can't get into. However, it might just be this modern day doomsday cult that meets weekly in a Murray Hill brownstone. Descendants of an Atlantis Aryan super race, a future without stomachs, rampant homophobia - "The Light" really ticks all the crazy boxes! And you probably wouldn't want any of them designing your home...unless you REALLY like owls.
