00:01Have you ever wondered about your neighbors?

00:03Maybe wondered about the weird thumps and thumps chants emanating from their apartment?

00:08I was once a degenerate, but Bob saved me.

00:14It's the church of the subgenius.

00:16Their prophet's name is Bob.

00:18I found an image of Bob's head in a bedpan.

00:21Hey, Bob!

00:22If Jim Jones could talk 900 people into killing themselves,

00:26we could talk 900 people into sending us a dollar.

00:30I grew up as a little white boy in the 1950s in a middle-class home.

00:42I really did feel like a weirdo.

00:44We have this sort of an icon we can blame everything on.

00:47The conspiracy of normalcy.

00:50Wouldn't you like revenge on these mediocrity,

00:53these normals who have made normality the norm?

00:56We were grasping for this crazy religion to help us see the light.

01:01We tied together every fringe belief you could think of.

01:05It made perfect sense to me.

01:07Repent!

01:08Quit your job!

01:09Slack off!

01:10We offer eternal salvation for a triple of your money back.

01:14The subgenius was a club.

01:17It was a badge.

01:18You may think it's funny.

01:20We hope you do.

01:21We are trying to deliver medicine of a sort.

01:24Y'all are out to put down outrageous cult groups.

01:28What does this mean?

01:29No, no.

01:29This is an outrageous cult group.

01:31Not everyone in the church of the subgenius gets along with one another.

01:38He's a shirt on his head!

01:40It was a little bit scary.

01:42We realized some crazy people are attracted to this.

01:46It got a little too far out for me.

01:48It's very effective to slice the world up

01:51and to pit everyone against each other.

01:54We believe that, you know, you do need to eliminate and exterminate all the norms.

02:00If you want to sell a religion, you have to kill the deity.

02:02That's how you do it.

02:03The conspiracy constantly grows.

02:06And it is worse than ever.

02:09There's always going to be a conspiracy.

02:11It can morph and it can evolve.

02:13And so can the church of the subgenius.

02:18We actually are a religion that seems like an art piece,

02:22that seems like a religion,

02:24that seems like performance art,

02:26that seems like a joke,

02:27that seems like a religion.
