'Heaven’s Gate' tells the story of how founder Bonnie Lu Nettles and her protege, Marshall Applewhite, formed their beliefs and convinced several dozen people to abandon their families—while talking to former members and family of the deceased. Host Glynn Washington brings a unique perspective to the pod, as he himself was raised in a religious sect. The southern Californian cult is most famous for its 1997 mass suicide, in which 39 people dressed in matching outfits and Black Nike Decades shoes took their own lives in hopes of boarding a UFO.
