This youtuber BE THEE COMMENTATOR has so far made a series of three videos about J*sh and Anna Duggar, his crimes, his arrest, and her life with him. The videos are very well-done, I can tell she did her research, and I recommend you guys take the time and watch these videos, don't just read my basic rundown ( Read more... )

For me, the news stories were enough.
This family should sink back i to obscurity but with more legal troubles and pinishment fir their abuse and grifting.

Im really excited to check these videos out, OP!

My heart goes out to the victims of Josh, from his sisters who were children to the children who were exploited in the CSAM. It’s sickening.

There’s a podcast called Leaving Eden that is hosted by an ex-fundamentalist and it does an excellent job of doing deep dives into fundie subjects/families while giving personal context. It’s an empathetic podcast, and Sadie Carpenter and her cohost Gavri’el HaCohen have done some impactful episodes on the Duggars and the extent of abuse in their brand of fundamentalist Christianity. I highly recommend it.

Thank you for that podcast recommendation.

The YouTube channel Fundie Fridays just put a new video about the extent of the abuse in the Quiverfull movement as well. Major trigger warning (which she has two at the beginning of the video). She’s really good. I haven’t finished this video yet but I like her other videos on different types of fundamentalist Christianity.

Was just about to recommend Fundie Fridays! The videos about the Camerons (Kirk and Candace) and Teletubbies cracked me up. I also enjoy the Welcome to Plathville reaction videos.

Please everyone I cannot recommend enough the podcast:

Some Place Under Neith
Episodes 12 through 17.

It is a thoroughly investigated deep-dive into the cult the Duggars belong to, the Institute of Basic Life Principals. They cover Anna's 'courting' by Josh at length and how it was almost entirely not her choice at all to be married to him (and on a larger scale, how women do not have any choices in this cult at all, for any reason).

(And lastly I recommend every episode of this podcast in general. But especially episodes 12-17)

i love that podcast. amber is a bit much sometimes but natalie is great.
i actually really enjoy LPOTL but i still can't believe natalie is married to henry. the more i think about it the stranger it becomes but is also somehow makes sense

What’s so sad to me is that her parents knownigly gave her to a monster, even the other crazy religious families pulled their daughter away from Josh after they heard
