In the '70s, a charismatic minister named Jim Jones convinced thousands of followers of his Peoples Temple that he was for them, moving them from the U.S. where he was being investigated for running a cult (lol, nothing to see here) to an agricultural commune in Guyana under the auspice that he was "creating a paradise free from the oppression of the U.S. government." Oh, and also, they had to call him dad, maybe sleep with him and never, ever leave unless they wanted to be shot.  But that's neither here nor there. He was FOR them, you guys. Of course, if you know anything about Jonestown, you know this didn't end well for 909 of them.  You'll never believe this, but the markers of Jim Jones—a guy who loved Hitler, schmoozing with politicians and exerting power over others—have a lot of overlap with our current RPOTUS (that would be rapist president of the United States).  In this episode, we welcome back—Dr. Janja Lalich, CEO of the Lalich Center on Cults and Coercion and foremost international expert on cults to answer our is-half-the-country-in-a-cult? questions.  She also recommended a book that we're going to recommend to you: The Brainwashing of My Dad: How the Rise of the Right-Wing Media Changed a Father and Divided Our Nation—And How We Can Fight Back, by Jen Senko.

The Dark Psychology of Cult Leaders Manson's Methods Exposed What makes a person follow a madman to the ends of the earth—and in some cases, to the point of murder? Charles Manson wasn't just a cult leader; he was a psychological anomaly, a master manipulator with an uncanny ability to lure vulnerable people into his orbit. But was he truly a criminal mastermind, or just a delusional man who happened to find the right (or wrong) audience? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect the mind of one of the most infamous figures in history. From his extreme personality disorders to the eerie way he could turn lost young people into devoted followers, this conversation dives deep into the psychology of control. Was Manson any different from gang leaders, military commanders, or radical influencers throughout history?

Tony Alamo and Warren Jeffs—two self-proclaimed prophets who built their empires on fear, control, and manipulation. In this video, we react to How I Escaped My Cult: Tony Alamo and break down the disturbing similarities between Alamo's group and the FLDS under Jeffs.

And what can we learn from the survivors who escaped? Let's dive in.

Robert tells David Gborie about the early life of Ziz LaSota, a bright young girl from Alaska who came to the Bay Area with dreams of saving the cosmos or destroying it, all based on her obsession with Rationalist blogs and fanfic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The line between cult and religion is sometimes blurred by the leader of the movement. Bonnie Nettles and Marshall Applewhite blurred the lines of new age religion and a cult by introducing aliens and UFOs. Nettles and Applewhite set out to bring their message of leaving the worldly distractions behind to ascend to the next level. The next level became more complicated when Nettles passed away. It's hard to pitch the idea of being an alien when you die of earthly sickness. Applewhite becoming the sole leader of flock, decided to take them in a direction that would put them in front of the world for all to see as the "spaceship" guided by Nettles passed the earth.

In this episode, we explore the controversial "Twin Flames" phenomenon, a spiritual belief that suggests each soul has a perfect counterpart, known as their twin flame, with whom they must reunite for ultimate spiritual enlightenment. While proponents claim these intense, sometimes tumultuous connections lead to profound personal growth, critics argue that it can foster harmful, cult-like behavior and toxic relationships. We delve into the psychological and emotional impact of twin flame teachings and how they can lead to a dangerous blend of obsession, dependency, and manipulation.Trigger Warnings:ManipulationSpiritual AbuseTransphobia/TraumaToxic MasculinityThe PatriarchyJavyhttps://snwbl.io/javy-coffee/LACI33468Coupon Code: LACI33468 Deadly Faith PATREON: https://patreon.com/DeadlyFaithPodcast?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkDeadly Drip Merch https://www.bonfire.com/store/deadly-drip/?utm_source=facebook_messenger&utm_medium=store_page_published_share&utm_campaign=deadly-drip&utm_content=default Need A Podcast Editor?

As a psychotherapist, Vanessa has extensive experience with narcissism based on her own encounter with a narcissist in her personal life and so she offers not just the clinical perspective, but an extreme and very exclusive story of abuse.  She has developed a coaching program based on her own experience and what helped her to recover from her psychological trauma after fleeing from her narcissist in the middle of the night. Her practice works to educate you on narcissism and what/who you are actually dealing with; Narcissism is categorized as a personality disorder by the mental health profession and is referred to as NPD or Narcissistic Personality Disorder, but it is FAR bigger than what is stated clinically in the DSM-V and few people are diagnosed because few people go to therapy. Vanessa ran across the state of New York in a wedding dress to raise awareness about narcissistic abuse. In this episode, she shares her unique perspective on narcissism and cults, the brain damage caused by narcissistic abuse & trauma and actionable tips for survivors.

Magdalena Solís was a Mexican cult leader and the extremely rare sexually motivated female serial killer. She was recruited to help a couple of grifters keep running a cult-based scam out of a cave in the mountains of rural Mexico in 1963 by pretending to be an Aztec goddess, and then started to believe she really was that goddess, took over the cult, and so much blood and debauchery followed. For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com
