Season 3

Episode 4
We've got some divine tea for you globies!!! In this episode, we shed some light on the BBC documentary that pulls back the curtain on T.B. Joshua, founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations and a figure who's been both revered and reviled. From alleged miracles to shocking revelations of abuse, we're uncovering the truth about how religious leaders shape our well-being.
We’ll analyse real-life accounts and dissect the mechanisms through which religious leaders influence diet, exercise, and even medical care-seeking behaviours.
Now onto you- should individuals seek healthcare solutions in religious miracles? Tell us your thoughts.
