In this early episode, we're talking about what happens when a master forger with a CTR ring takes on the Mormon Church's biggest weakness: their desperate need to control their own history. Spoiler alert: it involves salamanders, pipe bombs, and prophets getting absolutely schooled by a returned missionary with daddy issues and a chemistry set.
This is the story of Mark Hofmann — a man who fooled prophets, seers, and revelators with nothing but ink, paper, and a lifetime of Sunday School lessons. Because nothing puts the "prophet" in "false prophet" quite like getting scammed by one of your own faithful members.
