Trapped In The Closet came out in 2005 so the internet wasn’t as vast in information yet or as available. Not even most Scientologists knew the truths of their teachings. So how did Matt and Trey get such in-depth info on the subject?

The Space Opera backstory of Scientology became part of the public record during a court proceeding about some church shenanigans or other. This was several decades ago. It had been written and talked about previously before Scientology gained greater public scrutiny in the last couple decades. Church members didn’t know because they are trained to avoid information like that.
