- What a huge cover up!
I learned a lot about what happened in the disaster. It’s scary how the higher ups can cover up such a horrific event. I do wish you had had the time to have a meal with those last two families. You would have learned so much more and emigrated yourselves and other Americans in their eyes. Like they weren’t another item to check off your list. All and all a great show.

These uses probably would never have been considered without these women first trying it on themselves an... more

You need to take a deep dive into how deprogramming works. There are many cult specialists that can guide you! This cognitive dissonance is exactly the same thing. Great work on this story!

Canada10 months ago - Total ideological bias
Podcast is such ideological propaganda its hard to make it through the sea of bias that is its “reporting” - witness the most recent cheerleading for the heroic “feminists” who bravely fought for the right to terminate their pregnancies. No reporting from the pro-life/anti-abortion perspective. Its great evidence that NPR shouldn’t be financed by my tax dollars
