Is there a cult in North Dakota? The Vault explores the possibility in new 3-part series
Published By admin with Comments 0
NORTH DAKOTA — Forum Communications reporting on an alleged cult in northern North Dakota is at the forefront of the new 3-part podcast series on The Vault podcast.
The podcast highlights the 5-part print series , written by C.S. Hagen, and the 2-part documentary , produced by Drew Trafton, which investigated the hidden movements of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, which has a strong foundation in tiny Neche, North Dakota.
The Vault podcast series takes listeners behind-the-scenes of the reporting process, with Hagen and Trafton giving insight into the investigation: the resistance they faced and the people they met.
“This was such an important story for Chris and Drew to report. Just hearing them talk about it adds so much dimension to the story, and you get a sense of how professionally they treated it and how it affected them at a human level,” Forum Communications Podcast Network Director Kris Kerzman, who produced the series, said. “There’s never enough room to tell stories of this magnitude, but audio gives us a great way to share at least some of that additional context.”
Intertwined in the conversation with Hagen and Trafton are excerpts from those who have left the PBCC, who tell listeners their stories of alleged sexual assault, financial control, deeply misogynistic policies and the overall fear instilled within members.
