How are you going to have a podcast about escaping cults when the hosts are in one? The way they talk about Christianity is more cultish then many of the cults they cover. Total lack awareness of what they’re preaching. Is podcast just to get people to join a Jesus cult???

Wow. These guys have very little understanding of church history. Did y’all know that the church didn’t just begin in the 1500’s?! The Christian Orthodox Church is the original Church - way before the Roman Catholics and the Protestant Reformation. You can’t say that anything that isn’t in your...Read full review »

What a disappointing show. Just a front to push the Christian propaganda and perpetrate, Christian mythology is fact.

After listening to 2 episode series (Lindsay Davis on Bethel, and the Worldwide Church of God) I realized that the hosts have absolutely no self-awareness about their hypocrisy. The episodes begin with background on the relevant topic, which is usually not too terrible. However once they get past...Read full review »

This podcast claims to be discussing cults & abuses of power, but actually examines a variety of world religions under a fundamentalist Christian lense, & criticizes them for simply not being Christian. I have no issue with the Christian faith, but I do have an issue with blatantly...Read full review »

You all have done a pretty good job of sharing concerns about different religious groups. Super appreciate it! It’s been interesting. However, I have noticed that people brought in tend to be someone who was hurt/ turned off by the religion. It would be a lot more balanced if you would bring...Read full review »

First off, I’ve been in a cult. The theology would line up for the most part with that of the hosts. I’ve checked the website, the episode titles, but I can’t find where they explain their qualifications for speaking on cults or what their definition of a cult is. Judging from their subtitle they...Read full review »

For the most part, I enjoy this podcast but I always feel like there could be more information given. The guys do a lot of talking but there is not a lot said.
TAnnArroW via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
Love the content! You guys just need to do more research on the policies on JWs. There is a lot of assumptions of misconceptions on their policies. I am not a JWs, but I do like diving deep into the rabbit hole of knowledge. Believe me, this group IS NOT A CULT!!! Love Always and god bless...Read full review »
Guy that freaked out!!! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
Found this podcast after looking for information on cults and found this. Make no mistake this podcast is extremist Christian propaganda presenting itself in a way to encourage exactly this mistake. I could forgive them if they at least included the word “Christian” in the description of the...Read full review »

A podcast where Christian extremists decide every other religion, mainstream or not, is a cult.
Al_B1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/05/24
I love podcasts about cults. But make no mistake: this is not a serious and informed podcast about cults for people who want that. This is a Christian podcast about how all religions are wrong except their own. If that’s the point of view you’re coming from and want reaffirmed, by all means, this...Read full review »

I’m christian and tend to agree with a good amount of things these guys believe BUT …. Oh man … Jeremiah especially can barely enunciate his words. When he asks questions and speaks it sounds nearly brain damaged and sloppy. I also wish they spoke with a bit more self awareness about why...Read full review »

Fantastic and informative, this show will give you insight into this increasingly complicated world. These speakers are knowledgeable and humble, which keeps me coming back for more. 100% recommend!
jmakg via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/24
A podcast unwrapping cults by Christians who refuse to admit their own beliefs are indeed a cult. They unpackage other groups behaviors while believing their Christian behaviors are the correct way and not just a cult they are familiar and okay with. All advertising is from other memebers of...Read full review »

On the surface, the podcast seems fine. But the hosts are not legitimate cult scholars and don’t understand the seriousness of Thought Reform, cults, and totalistic ideologies. They pay lip service to critiquing some Christian cults, but ultimately the whole show boils down to “this cult is wrong...Read full review »
CynaneShay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/24
I listened to a few episodes of this show. After a couple of episodes, it became apparent that their main aim is to attack religions other than their own. Further inquiry revealed they belong to a Christian cult with extremist views. Their views are extremely biased and spread wrong information...Read full review »

I have been listening to Cultish since the beginning and have never been disappointed with the quality informations, engaging interviews, and breadth of the content. One of the podcasts I listen to consistently!
Mac n cheese gamer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/24
I really appreciate how well researched and Bible based this podcast is. I have learned so much, even as someone who has followed Jesus and orthodox Christianity my whole life. While you highlight the depravity of cults, thank you for also highlighting the rich depth and truth of the gospel.

“There are hundreds of paths up the mountain, all leading in the same direction, so it doesn’t matter which path you take. The only one wasting time is the one who runs around and around the mountain, telling everyone else that their path is wrong.” Biased Christian evangelical content where...Read full review »

I’ve listened to loads of Apologia and a fair bit of Cultish. In fact, the episodes on the Enneagram completely convinced me! However, the episodes on contemplative prayer…guys, that ain’t it. I was so frustrated that she was being interview on this topic. She even said herself multiple times...Read full review »

I found Cultish through Apologia Radio. I enjoy listening to the entire crew. The info is very well presented and informative!
Frauclark42 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/24
I’ve often wondered about cults and how they make sense with the reality of Jesus. This podcast is refreshingly biblically sound and makes the “skeptical continuationalist” in me so happy! Keep speaking the truth in love as you are!
everybicknameistakenughhhhh via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/15/24
This podcast is heavily influenced by Christianity, which could be fine if they used terms and characterized other religions correctly. They don’t seem to understand what “pagan” actually means and applies the term willy nilly. The hypocrisy of criticizing a cult for believing in the “wrong...Read full review »
ElizaT_ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/24
Most hypocritical podcast I’ve ever listened to. Most of the points they make about cults can also be made about Christianity. “People who aren’t Christian’s have a tough time living in gods world”. I’m not a Christian and I don’t have any problem living in this world.
oxleyy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/11/24
I downloaded the podcast app just to write this review. I like these guys. I am a Christian and I enjoy their apologetics work. Then I noticed their church of Christ content… As someone who was baptized in the church of Christ, I was interested to see their take. Unfortunately, the men they have...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to Cultish for a couple years now & I have to say how refreshing it is to learn about cultish ideologies from a biblical perspective. Hearing about specific experiences with the occult & testimonies of finding Jesus is not only interesting to hear about, but necessary...Read full review »

The irony of people dissecting cults, while at the same time speaking about their Christian truth was too much for me. I can’t even say the show is, at the very least, well thought out or researched. The expert in the episode I listened to seems to have very little knowledge on the subject he...Read full review »

Can you do more episodes on the Adventists? I’d love to hear you interview Myles from Answering Adventism.

80% boring didactic fundamentalists Christian preaching. Super disappointing
FoxGirl6 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/31/23
I’m refreshing myself on the original reporting on the Love Has Won cult since the doc shed new light on it. I will NOT be continuing listening to Cultish, bc they’re talking about how “as Christians, we know the truth”. Hypocrisy at its finest. No, thank you.
hrngh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/23
It is wild listening to these hosts, who are openly Christen, critique cult philosophies with no self awareness of their own belief systems. It’s fascinating to hear how the hosts categorize cults but do not process their own.
toddyvirginia via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/23
Other cult shows may be interesting and point out the moral flaws of cults but most fall short when explaining WHY anything COULD be right or wrong. This show provides the standard by which one can call something right or wrong. The bad reviews are from people who accept moral absolutes but have...Read full review »

Since my original review, I have listened to their interview with Haunted (not sure if that’s the name. They’re new to me, but I enjoyed it) and now I am just going to focus on the positive.

Genuinely confused by a Christian podcast about cults. Looking past the pot/kettle situation hosts and guests seemed poorly prepared for what is supposed to be a researched podcast. Lots of “I don’t knows” or “I can’t remember their name”. Unless you are a Christian looking for an echo chamber...Read full review »

Evangelical Christians talking about other religious organizations’ crazy beliefs is always hilarious

Love it! Love it! Love it! Jeremiah, Andrew, can you guys just keep talking with Ben and Brian? The Prologue episode is absolutely fantastic. No specific topics needed.

I was on a journey to better understand other religions and cults in the past year especially Mormonism. And found this podcast!! I am so thankful for the Christian perspective on these topics. Thank you for what you do and keep it up!!
Bekah_again via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/23
These guys do a good job of exploring cults, but their hubris and confidence that their evangelical perspective is the ultimate correct world view is exhausting.

An occasional listener already but I immediately got dialed in on the Alien Revelations series & enjoyed it. More importantly it made me consider my faith in a world of ever-changing circumstances and unforeseen events. Good stuff.
