In this episode I spoke with cult exposure expert, author and activist Rick Alan Ross.  We delved into the phenomenon of the different types of cults and why people join them. Rick explains how cults operate and how to identify them as well as the deprogramming process that he uses. Specifically we discussed “Scientology”, “NXIVM”, and the “Unification Church” as well as historical cult leaders.  Rick is a long cult expert and deprogrammer. He is the founder of the “Cult Education Institute” and author of the book “Cults Inside Out”.   Thanks for tuning in.
