Wonderful, misunderstood
I see a lot of reviews on here about how reviewers wanted the former cult members to repent for their misdeeds or how those folks spoke made them uncomfortable and therefore gave low reviews. That’s absurd. To demand that the truth fit into your worldview and when it doesn’t, you huffily give fewer stars to a wonderfully complex and complicated podcast that doesn’t shy away from the truth is childish. It makes things worse for everyone in the long run when you incentivize moralizing about things that are sometimes morally gray. If you are so fragile that you can’t listen to how other people experienced both the good and the bad, the abusive and the joyous, don’t listen to this podcast. But, if you are interested in listening to a wide array of perspectives in a beautifully produced and written show, add this one right now.

I knew about this cult because I lived close to them. Wow crazy stuff was going on behind those walls.
