Wonderful thought provoking podcast, highly recommended
Podcast Addict59 days agoRooster- Such a fantastic podcast!
This podcast is a brilliant, intelligent and in depth look at cults and the people they harm. Sarah’s compassionate view of cult victims and her understanding of the complex world of coercive control on a wide scale is impressive and the show is beautifully put together, especially the music. I’ve learned so much from listening and it’s one of my favourites. Highly recommended.
