Oh lordy lord...welcome back to a significantly shorter episode (as per request) that's NOT about the Vietnam Draft like I thought it would be, but about something a little more interesting. This go-around, we are heading to the ranches of Oregon, where…uh-oh! A sex cult has moved in next door! Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, better known as Osho, and his followers practice intense meditation and host wild orgies, and they want to kick the residents of the small ranch town of Antelope out because they aren't down with it! In order to create this utopia, everyone who isn't down with the sickness (haha, see what I did there?) is gonna GET a sickness, but not before the 15,000 person religious organization tries to take over town via election fraud, attempted murder, and various other crimes. Stay tuned to find out what on earth the Rajneeshees got up to (and what they renamed the city landfill!) !
