    Get A Life Ep.172 The Hunters Have Become The Hunted: RRT & Plymouth Brethren Christian Church
    Jun 16 2026
    The Rapture may not be imminent, but Rapid Relief Team v Bawtinheimer certainly is, with the first hearing in this critical court case this week. We bring you the latest twists and turns as RRT’s lawyers Church and Graif try every trick in the book to escape Randazza’s revenge - and fail. While the PBCC’s legal, political and publicity platforms collapse around his ears, Bruce boldly bullshits on, too drunk, stupid or both to understand that it is game over for the hateful Hales dynasty. We bring you some samples of his recent “helpful ministry” in which his casual cruelty, misogyny and “shoot the messenger” approach to his parishioner’s problems is proudly paraded. And yes, we are launching another round of fundraising for the ongoing legal expenses of defending Get-A-Life Podcast against Bruce’s increasingly desperate efforts to silence the voices exposing him as the fraud and imposter he is. If you feel GAL has brought you any measure of insight, wisdom, humor or empowerment, please give a little back to the cause to keep us on the air!Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/zp1w4gp3bljqdhv8x9jlj/45000-172.mp4?rlkey=ld4y9cvpfnu7b3tx8luvjcqoy&st=gfr0z4dm&dl=0Link to Court Hearing June 18 2pm Pacific- https://www.cand.uscourts.gov/jstLink to GoFundMe- https://gofund.me/8b9f805ccTo share your story or be a guest on the show, email info.getalife@proton.meGet a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:stouffvillelegal-gal@protonmail.comOffice address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace

  • Get A Life Ep.171: Plymouth Brethren Christian Church Cult Leader Doubles Down on Insane 2003 Rules

    Get A Life Ep.171: Plymouth Brethren Christian Church Cult Leader Doubles Down on Insane 2003 Rules
    Jun 1 2026
    On the heels of the global outrage over the PBCC pet ban, Bruce Hales isn't backing down. Instead, he's reaching back into the archives and resurrecting some of his most infamous ministry from 2003. And he didn't do it once. He did it two Thursdays in a row.That tells you this isn't about nostalgia or revisiting church history. It's about re-establishing boundaries and reminding members exactly where the lines are.The reaction inside has been unlike anything I've seen in years. Members are questioning, families are arguing, young people are pushing back, and priests are being left to explain how rules from 2003 are supposed to work in 2026.Some members think Bruce Hales has completely lost touch with reality. Others see this as the "door" they have been waiting for: their Aberdeen moment all over again. Meanwhile, parents are scrambling to contain the pushback happening inside their own homes as younger members hear teachings that many never experienced the first time around.How extreme are these rules? Imagine being told that entering a restaurant is a spiritual breach because worldly people use the same door. Imagine being told that a football stadium is off limits because worldly people walk through the entrance. Imagine being told that a swimming pool, skating rink, or public event becomes sinful simply because you're standing shoulder-to-shoulder with ordinary members of society.That isn't an exaggeration. Those are Bruce Hales' own words.Head to 5:36 for the first meeting and hear the full audio for yourself.Then jump to 1:24:40 for the second recording, where the separation doctrine becomes even more explicit.Many insiders believe Bruce Hales is deliberately creating an Aberdeen-style moment, forcing members to choose a side and exposing who is prepared to follow him wherever he leads. Others believe this is a final attempt to tighten control before eventually passing the torch to the next generation of leadership.Whatever the motivation, one thing is clear: these recordings are not the words of a mainstream Christian church. They reveal a system built on separation, conformity, and control. Judge for yourself. But to us, this is about as culty as it can get!Link for Insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/lwzczczbk9mtr0ioa6ij2/45000-171.mp4?rlkey=wthvys046gqjilhr1kqky0dvm&st=9v4rzl0s&dl=0Link to GOFUNDME for legal suit against Cheryl and the Get a Life podcast- https://gofund.me/e976c9d77To share your story or be a guest on the show, email info.getalife@proton.meGet a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Preston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:stouffvillelegal-gal@protonmail.comOffice address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp

  • Lady Whistleblown Brethren Dispatch Issue No.10 Pet Ban:When Love Becomes A Loyalty test in the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church

    Lady Whistleblown Brethren Dispatch Issue No.10 Pet Ban:When Love Becomes A Loyalty test in the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church
    May 20 2026
    The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church pet controversy has now exploded across the world, with headlines in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Canada and beyond.After reports emerged that a child connected to the Hales family was bitten by a dog, new ministry regarding pets was reportedly read out across the PBCC internationally. Families have been left devastated, terrified and confused as dogs, cats, birds and other pets suddenly became the focus of urgent ministry.But this is not new.Former members still remember the horror of the original anti-pet ministry from the 1960s, when beloved family animals were removed in heartbreaking and often deeply inhumane ways in the name of obedience.And yet, in recent years after COVID, pets had quietly started appearing again in some Brethren homes. Some former members even claim local priests were allowing pets if it helped persuade families to stay inside the church as more people quietly began leaving.So what changed?This episode of Lady Whistleblown’s Brethren Dispatch looks at the contradictions, the hypocrisy, the loyalty tests, and the deeper emotional control behind the latest ministry.Why is there emergency global ministry over pets, yet no worldwide emergency readings over child abuse, drink driving, or protecting victims?Why does the Rapid Relief Team publicly promote Cookie the kookaburra as a comforting mascot with stuffed toys and emotional symbolism, while inside the church members are reportedly told that pets are spiritually dangerous and take affection away from “God”?And what did Revelation actually mean when it spoke about “dogs” outside the gates?The deeper you look into this story, the stranger it becomes.#PBCC #PlymouthBrethrenChristianChurch #ExclusiveBrethren #RapidReliefTeam #BruceHales #CultAwareness #LadyWhistleblown #GetALifePodcast
