    I didn’t really get where the story was. Or what was special about his particular story, compared to others. I also felt like the reporting wasn’t neutral at all. It wasn’t even like….let’s find the truth, wherever that leads. It was clearly…let’s prove it all in our favor. more

    I don’t understand why some of the reviewers were ‘triggered’. The journalist told it as it is…nothing more, nothing less. Interesting story and am only sorry to hear that the main guy is still getting away with it. I hope they’ll be a follow up, I noticed the website for the group is still active- I feel sorry for people who are still in this cult (yes, cult!) and the ones who will be joining..🥲

  • Scam

    Paid for an ad, free subscription, but ad free contact was blocked due to being a non-subscriber! Rip off. Requested and received a refund from Apple. Avoid BBC podcasts like the plague.
