[Leah Remini and Laura D]Tomorrow we’re going to finish up our look back at the wild year that was 2019, but it’s not every day that you’re staring down the barrel of a new decade, and so we thought we ought to say something about the 2010s and what these years have meant for Scientology Watching.

[Swedish meatballs.]Like last year, on this final Sunday in 2019 we asked Rod Keller to give us his own year in review.
