You can tell from Lyndons facial expressions just how disgusted he is by some of McKays stories of the church. What a "blessing" that his intuition and brain served him right since a small child. He always was a free thinker and knew what was happening was wrong. I can only hope there are more children like this that know right from wrong despite the preachings of the church.

Ppl wonder why women like “bad boys” and it’s not necessarily that we want a man who’s a criminal. What describes it perfectly is when Mckay said “And no one wants to be the only person in a room of 7000 to stand up and say I disagree” and then Lyndon said “I do.” That’s the spirit we mean when we say bad boy. Someone with conviction and confidence who is willing to go against the grain regardless of the consequences.

The environment of the flds is much closer than mans world to what an environment should be. But none know how to sow the light and night that it should be.

I don't know a huge amount about the FLDS either, but as I understand it the men work and give everything to the church.

That was an intense watch. I felt a lot of pain for what u had to endure - but at the same time, youre an inspiration to everyone who was brought up in controlling circumstances and made it out. Thanks for sharing.

As an ex-mormon I thoroughly enjoyed hearing about your lived experiences. Thank you for sharing this with us.

I wanted to say how brave these two guys are. It's incredible to see how strong Laydon is, when he tells his story you can see how big his heart is. Absolutely brilliant human being and the way he played the system is so funny, very smart! Glad McKay has such an amazing big brother to look up to. It's difficult though, to see how being shunned by your falily can affect a person no matter how old, and how especially Laydon lays behind his cool demeanor to hide his pain. I hope both find love and all the blessings they deserve. Absolutely incredible stories!!! The world needs more brave, sane men like this. Love you, God bless you!! 🤍🤍

You guys have had a crazy upbringing but you both seem very grounded . It amazes me that you aren’t really bitter and messed up. So glad you’re both doing well . Respect !

Bless you, Lyndon and McKay. Thank you for sharing your story with us. No mother in her right mind would shun, isolate, reject, deny, or castigate her children. These cult moms are intrinsically insecure, without safe grounding -- and are able to fall under the spell of those more powerful. They sacrifice their own free will and intellect, and become like automatons without true identity or sense. I hope you can find peace and truly forgive your mother. I wish you both every good thing, and that you never forget that you are loved, that you are inherently worthy, that your lives have great meaning, and that you belong to no man, but only to God.

@TheTaradactyl7399 7 месяцев назад

Yes, but most are raised in the cult. I don't think you can victim blame them by saying they are insecure. They are brainwashed.

I have so much respect for 17 year old Lyndon and the kindness and respect he had for his young wife. I think we often hear horror stories of the men in the FLDS being horrible to the women but these boys grow up being taught this stuff.. so to see someone turn it around and actually respect their partners need to learn and grow outside of their norm? I have a lot of respect for that. Thank you both for sharing your stories. ❤

@dixieread3135 5 месяцев назад

To maintain such positivity after managing to free themselves from such a nightmare restores my hope in humanity and it's strength. I'm grateful for this opportunity to learn their stories and even more grateful that they are strong and brave enough to expose everything that was used to try and control them. I have no doubt that they are strong and smart enough to lead amazing lives and I hope we get to hear updates from time to time so we can continue to cheer them on. XOXOXOXOXOXOX

@davecaldwell445 7 месяцев назад

Lyndon and McKay were EXTRAORDINARY -- exactly what I think this channel should be all about, life on the dark side. Both, especially Lyndon, were tremendous storytellers. The story about T-Rex/AIDS (I won't spoil it for you) was hilarious, but it also told me so much about the unimaginable shit that people in this cult have to deal with. Thanks, and best wishes, fellas.
