Podcasts about cults

In part two with Nikki G., she discusses more of the high-control groups she joined, the political project of the Seven Mountain Mandate that she was part of, the connection between biblical concepts of obedience and white supremacy, and how everyone joins cults, even if white people are the biggest group talking about it. Plus, the difference between “church hurt” and religious trauma. SOURCES Surviving the Black Church Podcast Black Religious Trauma Recovery Network Nikki G.

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman review recent shifts in global politics. The discussion begins by examining the legacy of Alan Greenspan. They detail how his monetary policies and devotion to Ayn Rand laid the groundwork for modern neoliberalism. UK Leadership Collapse: Keir Starmer has resigned as Prime Minister amidst plummeting approval ratings. Jared and Nick explore how this signifies a broader rejection of centrist politics. Andrew Burnham is poised to potentially shift the Labour Party leftward. Vetting Failures: Attention then shifts to reports regarding Tulsi Gabbard. Her connections to Chris Butler and the Science of Identity Foundation highlight massive vetting failures within the Democratic Party. The conversation reveals how cult influence mirrors the mechanics of corporate think tanks. Soft Power: The episode scrutinizes Ezra Klein's defense of Peter Thiel's private Dialog conference. Jared breaks down the insidious nature of elite networking. Cults of Denial: Finally, they examine Donald Trump's claims about the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Rather than accepting basic science regarding algae, the former president blames political subterfuge. This serves as a metaphor for the reality-denying nature of political cults.

Your gut says something is off, but you keep dating them anyway. That's the uncomfortable truth we get into with Anonymous Andrew, a host and storyteller who turned a painful, gaslighting-filled relationship into a deep dive on digital dating, dating apps, and why so many of us repeat the same patterns even when we “should know better.”We talk about what happens when attraction and loneliness collide with codependency, anxious attachment, and the anxious-avoidant loop. We also unpack the culture shift that makes modern dating feels harder than it did years ago, even for people who are tech-savvy and comfortable online.Then we get practical. Romance scams are no longer obvious, and AI-generated profile photos make it easier than ever to fake a person. There's also a surprising overlap between heartbreak and exploitation, including “soulmate” promises that can turn into coercive, pay-to-belong systems.If you're navigating online dating, trying to avoid scammers, or rebuilding your confidence after a toxic relationship, this conversation gives you language, perspective, and a plan.

We're back in the swamp this week to wrap up a full-scale forensic examination of the most dysfunctional family tree in television history. What started as a simple murder investigation, eventually starts feeling like someone dumped a thousand-piece puzzle onto the floor, set half the pieces on fire, and then whisper, “Good luck. Now get me a beer.” The back half of True Detective Season 1 sees Rust Cohle and Marty Hart venture deeper into the labyrinth of cults, corruption, secret connections, suspicious relatives, suspicious churches, suspicious politicians, suspicious lawn ornaments, and approximately 47 people who should have been put on a watchlist years ago.Every new clue somehow creates six new suspects.Every suspect somehow creates three new cousins.Every cousin somehow belongs to a cult.Nobody is having a good time. The deeper the mystery goes, the more the gang becomes convinced that Louisiana itself might be the true villain. At some point, this feels less like detective work and more like trying to untangle Satan's family ancestry, with a conspiracy board so large that by the end, we're pretty sure Carcosa qualifies as its own zip code, and every Reddit thread about this season transforms into a doctoral thesis written by someone who hasn't slept since 2014. But then True Detective catches everyone off guard by quietly reminding us that the real horror might be becoming an older version of yourself and realizing you never figured anything out. Rude. We watch Rust and Marty as the years pile up, the mistakes linger, the regrets settle in, relationships crumble, and the frozen dinners multiple. Suddenly, the show isn't just about catching monsters, it's about what happens when life catches you. Again. Rude. We celebrate Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as one of the greatest television duos ever assembled. Rust spends most of the season looking like a man who hasn't slept since the Clinton administration, while Marty spends most of the season realizing that every terrible decision he's ever made has achieved sentience. Together they form the most emotionally damaged buddy-cop partnership in history, and we love them for it.

Russian disinformation no longer feels like a foreign problem you read about in long articles. It shapes what you see when you open your phone, what your relatives believe about a war they have never visited, and what large language models tell you when you ask a sincere question about world events. My guest this week on Cults, Culture & Coercion, Chris Sampson, journalist, terrorism analyst, and extremism researcher, publisher of The Wiretap, has spent more than four years reporting from Ukraine. He wakes up to drones and missiles, then opens his laptop to read online claims about the country he lives in describing a place he does not recognize. Few people are positioned to explain this gap with the precision he brings. He sorts Russian information into three streams: state propaganda, general pro-Kremlin bloggers, and military-security bloggers. The third stream sometimes fractures, and analysts who watch carefully see fissures open. Living in Ukraine has given Chris a daily lesson in cognitive dissonance, the discomfort a person feels when they hold two contradictory beliefs and resolve it by changing one of them. He walks through a Ukrainian city the morning after Russian drones strike it, then opens a feed full of Russian disinformation claiming the strikes never happened or accusing Ukrainians of staging them. The flood of falsehoods is the point. Putin and the KGB long ago refined what researchers call the firehose of falsehood, in which an overwhelming volume of contradictory claims exhausts your ability to sort signal from noise. He warned me about a newer escalation. Russia has been seeding pseudo-academic papers and propaganda articles into the training data of large language models. Ask one of the major AI tools a sincere question about the war or about the kidnapped Ukrainian children, and the model has been trained on material with Russian framing baked in. Chris named Kateryna Rashevska, a leading Ukrainian expert on the abducted children, as one of those raising the alarm about academic-looking papers planted to muddy the legal and historical record. This is active measures, the Russian intelligence tradition of psychological and information warfare, applied to a new generation of tools. The mechanism is brainwashing, the systematic use of deception, repetition, and emotional manipulation to shape what a person believes. The kidnapped children case is one of the most painful expressions of this doctrine.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Every once in a while, we revisit an older conversation and realize that it may be even more relevant today than when we first recorded it. That is exactly how I feel about this episode with Nathan Zieber, a pastor, former private investigator, and former investigator with MUFON Canada. Nathan has been called the “Paranormal Pastor” because of his willingness to enter communities that many Christians either fear, dismiss, or simply do not understand.

Joining the conversation is Dee from the incredible Umbrella Rebellion podcast, and no topic is off-limits.We kick things off with the ultimate ADHD tangents—debating the true meaning of “K” vs “KK,” arguing over infuriatingly wide delivery windows, skyrocketing utility bills, and a chaotic TVA home energy inspection. But things take a raw and deeply serious turn as we dive into the dark side of fundamentalism.Dee opens up about the immense strain of supporting a neurodivergent family member dealing with chronic suicidal ideation, completely isolated by a lack of community support after escaping a cult. We tackle the terrifying reality of how political targeting impacts the LGBTQIA+ and disabled communities, while the host shares a deeply personal reflection on losing a stepfather to suicide and surviving his own traumatic past.If you want to understand the terrifying truth behind Christian nationalism, the deep-seated misogyny in fundamentalist groups, and how Dee is actively fueling a rebellion against the harms of the IBLP and IFB, you cannot afford to miss this episode.Hit that subscribe button, leave a comment with your thoughts on the "K" text, and join the rebellion.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/umbrella-rebellion/id1600802861#SurvivingIsh #UmbrellaRebellion #ReligiousTrauma #IBLP #IFB #Deconstruction #MentalHealthAwareness #SuicidePrevention #Neurodivergent #ADHDBrain #LGBTQVoices #ChristianNationalism #CultSurvivor #PodcastRebellionSupport the show

When the Hale-Bopp comet swung past Earth in 1997, thirty-nine people put on matching black shirts and brand-new Nikes, swallowed a lethal mix of barbiturates and vodka, and lay down beneath purple shrouds to die — certain their souls were about to board the alien ship they believed was hiding in the comet's tail.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/heavensgateREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/343j2ju2FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Following an anonymous tip, police enter a mansion in Rancho Santa Fe, an exclusive suburb of San Diego, California, and discover 39 victims of a mass suicide. The deceased–21 women and 18 men of varying ages–were all found lying peaceably in matching dark clothes and Nike sneakers and had no noticeable signs of blood or trauma. It was later revealed that the men and women were members of the “Heaven's Gate” religious cult, whose leaders preached that suicide would allow them to leave their bodily “containers” and enter an alien spacecraft hidden behind the Hale-Bopp comet. *** PLUS, the creepy true-crime story of two men who were caught trying to steal the body of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November 28, 2021Weird Darkness runs from the 1997 mass suicide of the Heaven's Gate UFO cult outside San Diego to an 1876 counterfeiting gang's attempt to steal Abraham Lincoln's corpse from his tomb in Springfield, Illinois.It opens with the discovery, on March 26, 1997, of thirty-nine members of Heaven's Gate inside a rented mansion in the San Diego suburb of Rancho Santa Fe — twenty-one women and eighteen men lying beneath purple shrouds in matching black shirts and new black-and-white Nike sneakers, plastic bags over their heads, after swallowing phenobarbital and vodka. They believed the deaths would free their souls to board an alien spacecraft trailing the Hale-Bopp comet, which was making its closest approach to Earth that month. Former music professor Marshall Applewhite had started the group in 1975 with his nurse Bonnie Lu Nettles, the two of them renaming themselves Bo and Peep and later Do and Ti before persuading about twenty people in Oregon to leave their families and wait in eastern Colorado for a ship that never arrived. Applewhite preached that human bodies were disposable containers, that he was the second coming of Jesus, and that God was an alien. Nettles died in 1985, but he held the group together, and by the 1990s it had become the first well-known internet-era cult, paying its bills by building web pages under the business name Higher Source. The members watched Star Trek: The Next Generation, sewed Heaven's Gate Away Team patches onto their uniforms, severed contact with relatives through a practice Applewhite called breaking away, and submitted to a ban on sex that several of the men, Applewhite among them, enforced on themselves through castration.The episode closes with the 1876 plot to steal Abraham Lincoln's body from his tomb at Oak Ridge Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois. A Chicago counterfeiting ring run by James "Big Jim" Kneally had lost its master engraver, Benjamin Boyd, to a ten-year term in Joliet Penitentiary, so the gang resolved to seize the president's corpse and ransom it for Boyd's freedom. On election night, November 7, 1876, gang members Terence Mullen and Jack Hughes filed through the lock and split the marble sarcophagus with an ax, unaware that the grave robber they knew as Jim Morrissey was Secret Service operative Lewis Swegles, and that Captain Patrick Tyrell's agents and Pinkerton detectives hired by Robert Lincoln were hidden elsewhere in the monument. The trap fell apart when the lawmen fired on one another in the dark and the two robbers wandered off and escaped, though both were captured on November 18 and, with grave robbery barely a crime in Illinois at the time, served only a year in Joliet. What the public would not learn for years was that custodian John C. Power and a secret brotherhood calling itself the Lincoln Guard of Honor had already dragged the five-hundred-pound coffin into a damp labyrinth beneath the monument and buried it under loose boards and dirt, leaving visitors to grieve over an empty sarcophagus. The body was shifted from hiding place to hiding place until 1901, when Robert Lincoln ordered his father's casket lowered ten feet, locked inside a steel cage, and sealed under two tons of concrete, following one last viewing in which Leon P. Hopkins, the plumber who had closed the coffin back in 1865, studied a chalk-whitened but recognizable face and soldered the lead shut for good.

Friend of Holy Smoke Fr. Alexander Lucie-Smith joins Damian Thompson to talk about the complicated relationship between the drug cartels in Mexico and the Catholic Church. The violence of the cartels has led to a flourishing of shrines – and also cults – which have seen Catholic and pagan beliefs fuse together, and which are not always condemned by all church leaders. What motivates the Mexicans who turn to these beliefs? And what does Mexico tell us about corruption across the wider Church?Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Why Did D.B Cooper Jump From A Plane Mid-flight And Did He Survive? In 1971, a man made headlines after he boarded a plane with a bomb and told the flight attendents to do whatever he asked or else he'd set it off. They obliged and D.B Cooper asked them to get a huge amount of notes delivered to an airport where he'd let his ignorant passengers go.Perhaps the calmest hijacking ever, D.B was polite and curteous to the staff who did everything they could to make sure he got what he wanted...then mid-air, he donned a parachute, opened the plane door and threw himself out... no one knows what happened to him next.Join Cheryl & Nikki as they investigate perhaps America's most enduring mystery, work out just how something like this could happen, and how something so daring may have paid off...quite literally....If you're interested in more true crime deep dives, hit subscribe and ring the bell to stay updated.HUGE thanks goes to SNAG for sponsoring this series.

Hoyt Richards was one of the world's first male supermodels, a Princeton graduate and 1980s fixture in the pages of the biggest fashion magazines in the world. However, behind the glamour was a secret life he could barely explain to himself. At 16, he met a charismatic Manhattan socialite named Frederick von Mierers on a Nantucket beach, and what began as a mentorship slowly became something far more controlling: a New Age spiritual group called Eternal Values, built around von Mierers' claim that he was an alien reincarnated from the star Arcturus, sent to Earth to save a chosen few before the apocalypse. Hoyt lived a double life for over two decades, jet-setting by day, sleeping on a mat in von Mierers' apartment by night, before he finally walked away.

Ian Wilks was a high-ranking leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He is a former bishop, a former branch president, and a member of the stake presidency in British Columbia, with responsibility for shepherding twelve congregations and thousands of members. Then-apostle Dallin H. Oaks, now the 18th president and living prophet of the LDS Church, personally recruited him, interviewed him, called him, set him apart, and trained him into that role.¹ For 37 years, Ian devoted his entire life to his church. He paid tithing on his gross income. He sealed his marriage in the London Temple. He conducted hundreds of worthiness interviews. He trained bishops. He stood at pulpits and at altars. He made sacred covenants in the temple to give all he had, including his own life if required, for the building up of the kingdom on earth. In a snowstorm, the cost of those 37 years lands all at once. The thing he wanted most to be true, he learned was untrue. I spoke with Ian on my podcast Cults, Culture & Coercion and in a recent livestream. He is the co-host of the Inside Out podcast with Jim Bennett, son of the late US Senator Bob Bennett. What he told me confirms what former members of the LDS Church have been describing to me since my first book was published in 1988. The Mormon Church meets every criterion of an authoritarian cult under my BITE Model of Authoritarian Control™ and sits on the destructive end of my Influence Continuum©. Ian himself took the BITE Model self-test based on his decades of experience and scored the church at roughly 85 to 90 percent across the four dimensions of behavior, information, thought, and emotion. This group is one of the wealthiest, most influential groups in politics and its believers are over represented (compared to all other faith groups) in our FBI, CIA, Homeland security and faithful people will follow the direction of the Prophet over the Constitution (even though they swear an oath to uphold the Constitution) which should make all Americans worry.
