    Ep. 312 Stone Mountain & Three Springs Troubled Teen Industry - Episode 132 Remastered

    In this remastered episode I speak with Andrew who talks us through his experiences being pulled through the Troubled Teen Industry from the young age of 11 onwards. Not only was Andrew subjected to "scared straight" programmes and tactics, he was forced through 2 wilderness programmes that respectively had abuse and manipulation running through both.

    Ep. 309 The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord Part 2 - Episode 107 Remastered

    Ep. 309 The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord Part 2 - Episode 107 Remastered

    In this remastered conversation, I speak with former co-leader of the Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord (CSA). Unfortunately, I found out recently that Kerry passed away last year. It was a very quiet event, with no mention of it in the anti-cult community. This deeply saddened me as Kerry spent so much of his life attempting to reconcile for his earlier years, take accountability for his actions and teach the world how hate can manifest and become deadly, just like it does in today's far-right and extremist hate groups. Kerry was unabashedly honest about his crimes, his moral injuries and his attempts to teach love instead of hate. His book series "Tabernacle of Hate" will be a legacy of Kerry's later years as a writer and motivational speaker against hate. Thank you Kerry for your time, your wisdom, your honesty and your years spent teaching us.

JustBrowsingThanks ,

Thank you to the people who told their part of this important history

This is one of the most important podcasts I’ve listened to so far about high control groups and how sexual abuse of children happens right under the nose of schools, neighbours and parents.

As the quote goes: No one joins a cult, they join a ‘good thing’.

Very interesting!

Kacey has a more conversational interview style than many podcasts of this nature. It makes for some very engaging dialogues with fascinating guests. The backgrounds of the guests cover the spectrum in terms of representing the different kinds of cults. Well worth a listen!

Amazing

Amazing, interesting, no ads (which seems impossible in this day and age), I can listen for hours, well researched, nice voice.
