The JW Community podcast had a nice episode on some of the feedback. If they helped at least one person it's more than some of the asshats on this forum.

Meeting schedules differ for different congregations. Midweek you have the CLAM (Christian Life and Ministry) and the Service meeting. On the weekend, probably Sunday you have the public talk and Watchtower Study. I and many here have been out too long to have attended some of the new ways that they do things. They have a new Bible that was released just before we left, they have tv screens in Kingdom Halls where mindless drones watch video propaganda now, and things have changed quite a bit.
As to the midnight cry, I can't remember them ever specifying much on that one point. So I'm no help there.
Honestly, your question was oddly specific as to the midnight cry. I didn't know you had been here so long, have never seen you, and figured you were just an average "worldly" person trying to learn about JWs so I mentioned generalized places that might help you.
So, what's the deal? Are you trying to help someone that you love that's a JW, or are you trying to become a JW for someone you love, or just curious? Maybe we can't help with these specifics so much but some context would help us to help you in some way.

Keep digging Morpheus, it's working, lmao. We all see you, and it's okay. Yes, yes, we're all wrong and you and you alone stand in truth. Where have I heard that kind of rhetoric before? I'm surprised you cast such pearls before us swine.

Morpheus - You know what... im done with this. Removing my last comment, letting the dreamers dream.
Whew, thanks man. We were all waiting for you to approve of our direct experiences or differing views. Glad you chose to allow us to be ourselves and not another version of you. We'll look for you on another thread to come in and straighten us all out. What we all need is to be more like you. It's something to aspire to, since you're clearly always right and the only one that sees the world clearly.

@jaydee - Thanks!
@diogenesister - I can see how being POMI might leave one looking for all types of escapism. It's so sad.
@caves - Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad that you found something that resonated with you. I look forward to helping you to tell your story too.

I did a podcast called This JW Life that you can listen to if you want one cohesive JW narrative. You can listen on my site at thisjwlife.com.
Trying to jump in and out of answering every individual question and to explain all of their beliefs isn't something I'm interested in but others may be.
JWfacts.com is a great resource too.

A new podcast interview, and a new book, on episode 15 of the "shunned" podcast.Jason grew up in Amish Country but was raised in the cult of Jehovah’s Witnesses. This story has cars hidden in the woods for a getaway, living on boats, time spent in rehab, a JW group of “lost boys” that were dealing drugs, just your average story of leaving a cult. You can see that Jason is an explorer, a person driven to learn and try new things, and how stifling it would be growing up in a cult where that is discouraged. He made mistakes after leaving the cult and wants to help others to avoid doing the same. In fact, he’s written a book about his experiences that goes into greater depth than we can do here. You can find his book entitled “Worldly – How NOT To Escape A Cult” on Amazon.As always, the episode can be heard on your podcast player of choice (iTunes, Google Play, Podbean, Podcast Republic, etc.). You can also stream it from my website at shunnedpodcast.com and find it on youtube on my channel called shunnedpodcast. -

Just because you weren't cut out for it doesn't mean that others weren't or aren't. Why is it so hard for some to understand that other people are different than them?
Good for you for leaving it behind if it wasn't for you. Good for others for having what it takes to do so if it's in their wheelhouse.
