- They hit the right note’
I am a therapist with experience in cult recovery. I was delighted to discover this podcast because they have the perfect combination of empathy and irreverence. This field can become bogged down in drama and gravity, especially around potentially salacious topics. But these two are kind, authentic and funny AND take the topic seriously. They are even willing to be highly vulnerable on the air and that is impressive. I consider they are doing a great service to the cult recovery community to whi... more

These two I have known personally for a decade and they are incredible and such a breath of fresh air in this crazy world. They have been through so much but have come out on the other side wiser! Proud to call you both a friend! Keep up the good work!

Canadaa month ago - Come for the culty awareness, stay for the fun.
Sarah and Nippy’s podcast – along with their education, vulnerability, resilience, and fun camaraderie – is a delight. Yes, they get into tough topics but their approach to doing so – and frank, open discussions – is a bright light in a challenging world. Sarah and Nippy’s recognition that cults and cult-like behavior finds its way into surprising parts of our world – and their willingness to shine a light on it, especially given their own experiences – is a reminder that there is always more to... more
Apple Podcasts5EmilyKapitUnited Statesa month ago - Can’t listen anymore due the incessant commercials and choppy episodes
The shorter episodes now have way too many “words from our sponsors” and make the episodes choppy and unfulfilling to listen to. Would much prefer less episodes that are at least an hour. I get you need sponsors but more sponsors have somehow made this podcast much more difficult to listen to and get into.
Apple Podcasts2CuriousNewDayUnited Statesa month ago - Unfollowing
I used to really enjoy the podcast, but the last two episodes have left me feeling uncomfortable. I feel like these two people have a hard time acknowledging their own inconsistencies and contradictions. There are certain issues that simply aren’t up for debate, and one of them is human life.
