NEW EPISODE: How Neopets was sold to Scientologists
🕑 Added 2018-11-29 15:07:31 +0000 UTC Hello patrons!So, erm, who remembers Neopets?
If you were a part of that community back in the early 2000s, you may be surprised to hear that it was owned by a group of very devout Scientologists.
To find out what this meant for the site itself I met up with its original creators and talked to them about the moment they realised who they'd just sold their company to.
Oh and there's also an awkward phone call with the Church itself, which you might enjoy.
Thank you so much for supporting what we do.
Enjoy,
Chris
