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 injuri ..read more

This was one of my first introductions to Scientology. Can you tell? Lots has changed in terms of my understanding of cults, of Scientology and my interview style. In this interview, I chat with Fred. Fred spent 20 years of his life within the Church of Scientology. He was a part of the Sea Org, experienced the highest levels of indoctrination and manipulation and eventually left on a spiritual and educational journey of understanding before realising - he doesn't associate with any religious or spiritual practice.

In this episode I talk with Daniella about her experiences growing up in the armageddonist movement The Children of God - now known as The Family International. This movement has been exposed in various ways to the public but it remained hidden in the shadows around the world for many years whilst children and members were subjected to some of the worst abuse imaginable. Daniella tells us of her escape and arrival into another high demand group - the US military.

In today's episode I speak at length with Lisa Kohn - author of the Memoir "To the Moon and Back: A Childhood Under the Influence". Lisa talks us through her childhood coming into the church and her struggles with leaving it behind. I had the honour of meeting with Lisa recently as she travelled to England. We had dinner, talked, wandered the historical streets of Liverpool and speculated on where our lives were headed next. Thank you Lisa for being one of my favourite, most inspirational women I know.
