Young and shunned xJW singer/songwriter and wife interview.
"Blessed Feathers:Nomadic and loving it" is featured story on National Public Radio.(Someone make it clickable?
Amazingly open about what happens if you don't follow the Leader as a JW--yet without bitterness--this young man tells his story. Really warns public about the cultish behavior of the Organization.

The two members of Blessed Feathers started off as an unlikely pair. Donivan Berube moved to West Bend, Wisc., and got a job at a pizzeria; that's where he met Jacquelyn Beaupre. Both singers and songwriters, the two were brought together by music — first as friends, then as musical partners, then as a romantic couple.
During a recent conversation on Morning Edition, Berube talks about how what he found in Wisconsin and with Beaupre would challenge his faith as a Jehovah's Witness — and change the course of his life. The two now live a nomadic lifestyle and say they're excited about their chosen homelessness. Click the audio link to hear more of the discussion.

He posted on his band website that he is upset about all the backlash the interview created on both sides. Seems like a really cool guy. Living life with his own free will. Not a bitter angry mentally diseased apostate.
