In order to provide more points of view and experience on my channel, I’m interviewing people involved in Scientology and other destructive cults and getting their stories.
In this episode, Robyn gives details about what it’s like to work as a staff member and management representative at the Los Angeles “Model Org for Scientology.” This is the same org that is now manned up with nothing but Sea Org members. Back in 1992 when Robyn first transferred there, Sea Org member Jeannie Sonenfeld was in charge. Unfortunately, Jeannie is still in, now running the Church of Scientology in Cincinnati. Robyn describes Jeannie’s disastrous method of running the show and then talks about what it was like when OT VIII John Woodruff took over and LA org reportedly achieved “Saint Hill size.” And to be clear, there is very little difference between how things were then and how they are now. It only got crazier for Robyn after that and you’re going to find out all about Scientology’s “family values.”
Great video, you two. I love it that you are out there talking.
I couldn’t resist telling you something about Jeannie Sonenfeld. The week after the LA org was “saint hill sized,” I was down in LA and in the main parking lot were five of her “saint hill sized” org staff. They were all Hispanic, didn’t speak a word of English and were passing around a joint on their lunch break.
I know how orgs always fudge stats. This was so beyond the pale that I didn’t even bother doing anything.
Wow… Excellent interview. Family values..indeed.
