Podcasts about Downfall

We dive even deeper in Part two with Ellen Huet to unpack what drove OneTaste's inner circle, its culty sales playbook, and the strange tangle of power, personal growth, and manipulation. Ellen reveals the hidden pressures—financial, sexual, emotional—that kept members tied to the group (and often hemorrhaging money), and explains how buzzwords like “aversion practice,” “getting off on any stroke,” and “rapidly changing reality” were really tools for bulldozing boundaries and controlling thought. Our conversation traces OneTaste's journey from wellness trend to federal courtroom, busts modern myths about female-led groups, and highlights why charismatic leadership is always more about the follower than the figurehead. Plus: surprising cult parallels with AI, why new spiritual movements are getting more digital (and more female-fronted), and how lessons from OneTaste can help us spot red flags in even the most unexpected places. If you care about consent, community, or why smart people fall for shiny promises, this is essential listening.For more on Ellen's exploration of OneTaste, read her book, Empire of Orgasm: Sex, Power, and the Downfall of a Wellness Cult.

Orgasmic Meditation was supposed to close the “pleasure gap.” Instead, it led to a federal indictment.

Carolee and Britton Beckham grew up in the Mormon Church. They followed all the steps. They got married. They had children. They believed. And when infidelity became a problem, they went to the Church for guidance, fully expecting healing. When they got the opposite, the couple decided to make a big change, one from within (and without the Church). The Beckhams speak candidly about all the ups and downs of their marital and spiritual journeys and share what saved them.    For more from the Beckhams: TheMagicalStoryofUs.com For More From Sober Coach/Substance Abuse Counselor Max Njist, visit MaxNijst.org

Empire of Orgasm: Sex, Power, and the Downfall of a Wellness Cult is Ellen Huet's excellent new book, described as “a cautionary tale of sex and salvation for the wellness generation: how orgasmic meditation turned into a cult.” Let's Talk About Sects dived into OneTaste back in November 2020, and a lot has happened since then, including arrests, trials, and guilty verdicts. So it was the perfect time to speak with the journalist who broke one of the most important stories about the true nature of OneTaste back in 2018.LinksEmpire of Orgasm: Sex, Power, and the Downfall of a Wellness Cult — by Ellen Huet, MCD, November 2025The Dark Side of the Orgasmic Meditation Company — by Ellen Huet, Bloomberg Businessweek, 18 June 2018If you have been personally affected by involvement in a cult, or would like to support those who have been, you can find support with or donate to Cult Information and Family Support if you're in Australia (via www.cifs.org.au), and you can find resources outside of Australia with the International Cultic Studies Association (via www.icsahome.com).

For years, Prince Andrew acted like the high-flying royal who couldn't see the minefield he was walking into: cozying up with ­Jeffrey Epstein, showing up in dubious photographs, giving an infamous 2019 BBC interview that looked more like a clown show than a credible defence (including his claim to have been at Pizza Express while accusations rained down). Ultimately his behavior came across as shamelessly indifferent, tone-deaf, and foolish—he didn't just stumble; he waltzed through the wreckage.Then everything collapsed. The monarchy pulled the plug: he relinquished titles, had military honours stripped, was told to leave his royal residence, and in late 2025 he was formally stripped of his “Prince” title and other styles, becoming simply Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. These aren't small demotions—they mark the end of his public roles and any real stature in the institution he once embodied. He gambled his privilege, association, and reputation—and lost it all.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

This episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.What happens when the pursuit of female pleasure blurs into high-pressure sales, psychological control, and a federal criminal trial? In this two-part episode, we're joined by journalist Ellen Huet for a candid dive into the rise and fall of OneTaste and the controversial practice of orgasmic meditation. Ellen unpacks how a wellness company promising sexual healing and empowerment became a high-control, high-demand group, luring seekers with mindfulness and “goalless” pleasure, then pushing boundaries, demanding loyalty, and turning taboo into currency. We covered OneTaste's celebrity endorsements, culty sales tactics, the “bait-and-switch” of so-called sexual liberation, and the subtle ways a quest for growth can lead to manipulation. Ellen also shared the behind-the-scenes story of her reporting: from her first incredulous meetings through years of deep-dive investigation, to witnessing the courtroom drama firsthand. If you thought you understood “sex cults,” this conversation will bend your notions, shift your Overton window, and leave you thinking twice about what empowerment really means. Stay tuned for part two, where legal fireworks and even wilder revelations take center stage.Be sure to read Ellen's book, Empire of Orgasm: Sex, Power, and the Downfall of a Wellness Cult, and follow her on Instagram, X, or Bluesky.Also…let it be known that:The views and opinions expressed on A Little Bit Culty do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

The Purge by a Novel and Mao's Fear of Revisionism. Joseph Turigian explains that Xi Zhongxun's 1962 downfall stemmed from supporting the publication of a fictionalized biography of his deceased mentor, Liu Zhidan. Mao Zedong saw the novel as a counter-revolutionary plot and a manifestation of revisionism, fearing that others would claim credit for leading the revolution. Mao aimed to transform persecuted individuals through humiliation and torment, unlike Stalinist purges, which emphasized execution. Xi Zhongxun was brutally kidnapped by Red Guards in 1967 and subjected to struggle sessions as Mao sought to continuously "rebaptize" the party in revolutionary spirit. Guest: Joseph Turigian. 2906 PEKING NORTH

Murder for hire. Murder for business. Murder for profit. In the 1940s, a crew called Murder, Inc. protected the interests of the Commission, a collective of American gangsters who banded together to run the American underworld like a legit business. Murder, Inc. thugs shot, stabbed, and strangled upwards of 1,000 snitches who dared rat on the mob. But the mob never bargained that their chief executive executor would himself turn rat. Or that the story of their downfall would be laid out for all to see on the big screen – pursued and prosecuted by Humphrey Bogart, who proved what it really takes to be a tough guy.

The downfall of Prince Andrew evolved over more than a decade, beginning with his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Initially dismissed as mere poor judgment, the relationship became indefensible after Epstein's 2008 conviction and the release of court documents in 2014 linking Andrew to Epstein's trafficking network. The real collapse began in 2019 after his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview, where Andrew appeared unremorseful and detached from reality while denying ever meeting Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual abuse. The public backlash was swift and brutal, forcing him to step back from royal duties, lose numerous military and charitable titles, and face widespread condemnation across the UK and abroad.The second phase of Andrew's downfall solidified in 2022 when he reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre, reportedly paying millions to avoid trial—an act widely viewed as an admission of guilt in everything but name. His exile deepened under King Charles III, who moved to strip him of all remaining titles and honours in 2025 and remove him from the Royal Lodge. Once a favored son of Queen Elizabeth II and decorated naval officer, Andrew has become a symbol of privilege without accountability—a man who tried to bluff his way through scandal but ultimately folded under the weight of his own arrogance and denial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Did you know that the concept of spiritual covering originated from the "Shepherding Movement" in the 1970s? Many prideful leaders are pounding ungodly doctrine down the throats of many wounded Christians ... manipulating and trying to gain control over souls, which is a form of witchcraft. This pattern is still being witnessed in various churches and on social media as a worldly recognition; often involving occult impartations and the glorification of self! A spiritual covering is NOT required for accountability. Let's be clear: You're covering and ultimate authority belongs to God, NOT man! Be wary of leaders who twist Scripture and prioritize submission to themselves over God. There are dangers of occult traditions and rituals that glorify self and place humans as divine authority, my friends! Spiritual coverings are a SCAM: You're covering comes from our Creator, not His creation!

The surprising twist of Christian living is that when we pursue the things that we think will make our lives richer, better, longer, or fuller, they slip through our grasp. But when we give our lives away, we gain more than we can ask, think, or imagine.

5. The Democratic Convention: Wilson's Downfall and the Rise of Cox and Roosevelt David Pietrusza 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents Meeting in San Francisco in July 1920, the Democrats grappled with Woodrow Wilson's political liability due to his uncompromising League of Nations stance and desire for a third term. Wilson received only a grim demonstration of support, and his cabinet feared he would die if nominated. The two leading contenders were William Gibbs McAdoo, Wilson's son-in-law, and Ohio Governor John Cox. Due to the Democratic two-thirds rule, the convention took many ballots. Cox, a moderate publisher, secured the nomination after 44 ballots. After meeting with Wilson, Cox abandoned his moderate position to strongly support the League. Franklin D. Roosevelt was chosen as Vice President due to his name recognition, Navy service, and New York connections. 1929 HOOVER INAUGURAL

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT unleashes pure frustration after the Pittsburgh Steelers fall apart in a 35–25 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He calls out Mike Tomlin, the “most expensive defense in football,” and DK Metcalf's boneheaded penalty that cost Pittsburgh the game — saying Aaron Rodgers is carrying this team on his 41-year-old back. JT then rips Raheem Morris, declaring the Atlanta Falcons “grits” after getting cooked by a black-eyed Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins. He makes the case for Jonathan Taylor as the real NFL MVP, not another overhyped quarterback, and praises Tyler Huntley for saving the Ravens' season. JT finishes with a scathing rant on Caleb Williams' broken fundamentals, the Denver Broncos' rise as a legit Super Bowl threat, and why it's officially time for the Cleveland Browns to bench Dillon Gabriel and start Shedeur Sanders — before this season crashes completely off the rails.

It's been another big year in AI. The AI race has accelerated to breakneck speed, with frontier labs pouring hundreds of billions into increasingly powerful models—each one smarter, faster, and more unpredictable than the last. We're starting to see disruptions in the workforce as human labor is replaced by agents. Millions of people, including vulnerable teenagers, are forming deep emotional bonds with chatbots—with tragic consequences. Meanwhile, tech leaders continue promising a utopian future, even as the race dynamics they've created make that outcome nearly impossible.It's enough to make anyone's head spin. In this year's Ask Us Anything, we try to make sense of it all.You sent us incredible questions, and we dove deep: Why do tech companies keep racing forward despite the harm? What are the real incentives driving AI development beyond just profit? How do we know AGI isn't already here, just hiding its capabilities? What does a good future with AI actually look like—and what steps do we take today to get there?
