Ever see that oddly identical group of people all cramming into a sketchy van or disappearing into rural land, and think to yourself, "I'd like to see what goes on in there..."? Whether you'd put on the matching outfit and dive on in, or just opt to be a fly on the wall, Cults I'd Join takes you to the inside as hosts Ameran and Jesse discuss the pros and cons of each group, what makes them tick, and whether or not they'd join. Join a new cult with us for an hour or so at a time. It's all the zany fun of cult joining, with none of that pesky commitment or potentially really bad decisions!

Get them to the Greeks
We're BACK and it's Ameran's turn to teach Jesse a thing or two! This week we'll need you to grab your best matching group tee, your inexplicably decorated wooden paddle, and of course, an irresponsible amount of alcohol. Oh, and bring a few candles and a working lighter, in case we need to perform any midnight oath rituals. We have missed our weekly chats with you, and we can't wait to join the Greek Sorority and Fraternity system with you!!!Original song and performance by Devon Sproule Lov...

The Commune Turns 50...
Surprise! It's a break week for CIJ, but in this little pocket, two super awesome things happened! Cults I'd Join hit 50k downloads, and Jesse's favorite commune celebrated their 50th Land Day (they turned 50 years old)!!! So Jesse recorded a bunch of interviews about the moment while she was there, then she ran off to run around the Maypole, and here are a few of her favorite for you to listen to... see you all for our regularly scheduled cult joining next week!Original song and performance ...

This season we're doing twice as many episodes (two on each group), so we're doing twice as many season wrap-ups as well! We're halfway through, so let's revisit our first 6 cults we'd join, and decide who has the best snacks and outfits... which one from this batch is your first pick??Ps, CIJ will be on a two week break after this mid-season wrap up, and then we're back for the next 6 groups. Patreon will continue to have new episodes, so feel free to jump over there for extra content, and i...

The Handmaid's Tale
Every season we join a fictional community, and this time, we're joining Gilead! Fabulous outfits? Check. Endless baked goods? Also check. Some issues that we'd call... problematic? THIS IS A BIG FAT YES. But you might know about those-- or recognize them from the dystopian parts of our real lives. See you over in Gilead, and blessed be the fruit! Sorry, we meant BRING FRUIT. It's a party.Original song and performance by Devon Sproule Love Cults I'd Join? Want to join all the communal fun wit...

Ramtha
Are you tired of traditional religious structures? Would you rather piece together pseudo science and colorful mythology delivered to you by a woman named Zebra channeling an ancient warrior man named Ramtha? Well then welcome, besties! You've come to the right place! Also there is some horrifying racism and blindfolded archery. See you in class at Ramtha's School of Enlightenment!Original song and performance by Devon Sproule Love Cults I'd Join? Want to join all the communal fun with us? *S...

Hyped
Two episodes in and I’m pretty hyped. These folks seems welcoming, smart, funny, open minded, and just the right amount of cynical. The Teal Swan episode was particularly interesting as one of the hosts opened up and shares some devising details of their life. That makes me like them more and want to listen more. I’ve always said I would join a cult (Heavens Gate always seemed like they had fun, but I’ll wait for that episode to say for sure if I would have been on the Away Team ☄️)
BigWowGreatFun
It’s like BSin’ with ya buds while talking about cults. 5 Star Humor. Sometimes it’s like they’re in my head… May have been besties in past life.
Love it
Just found it , and I’m very glad I did. The hostess are Jesse, and Ameran . They open-discuss the cult , and at the end, it gets rated. I feel like they’re approach to this specific topic, is innovative, and very spot on.
