Today's cult is probably the strangest in its own special way. Its known as a sex cult and caught the eye of a number of celebrities.

Cette semaine, dans ce dix-neuvième épisode de « Parlons Tabous », on plonge dans un sujet sensible, souvent entouré de confusion, de peur et de silence : les sectes religieuses. C'est quoi exactement une secte ? Qu'est-ce qui différencie un mouvement religieux alternatif d'une organisation à dérive sectaire ? À travers des exemples canadiens (Scientologie, NXIVM, Témoins de Jéhovah, Bountiful) et le modèle BITE de Steven Hassan, on décortique les mécanismes de contrôle utilisés par certains groupes. Avec un quiz interactif et des ressources utiles, cet épisode t'invite à aiguiser ton esprit critique, sans jugement ni sensationnalisme pour mieux comprendre, te protéger et soutenir ceux qui cherchent à sortir de l'emprise.

Welcome to another, unofficially titled, Bonus Drop. These episodes are our way of checking in midweek with extra thoughts, headlines, and conversations that keep the Cultiverse convo going strong. And remember: Patreon subscribers get them a day early because that's how perks work. In this drop, we're digging into the overlap between religious trauma, emotional abuse, and the battle for language in the courtroom. Buckle up, because this one covers a lot: Updates on the NXIVM trial and why proving coercive control is still such a legal minefield Bill Maher's spectacularly bad take on the P. Diddy trial, and our thoughts on victim blaming in the media The political and social reach of religious fundamentalism (spoiler: it's farther than you think) And a powerful chat with special guest Tia Levings, who joins us to share her journey from Christian fundamentalism survivor to bestselling author and advocate. Her new book The Soul of Healing is a deep dive into recovery from spiritual abuse—and trust us, you'll want to hear her take. Plus: What happens when survivors take back the narrative, and how to spot the signs of patriarchal programming in your own life. Got thoughts? Send us a voicemail. We're always listening.

Welcome to the second in our new series of Bonus Thursday Drops—aka, your new favorite excuse to stay in on a weeknight. These episodes are an extra dose of A Little Bit Culty on the main feed every Thursday (Patreon subscribers get them a day early, because perks). Sometimes it'll be a follow-up to a two-parter. Other times, like today, we'll check in on the ever-expanding Cultiverse with a mix of headlines, hot takes, and your voicemails. In this episode, we're serving up a “current-ish” roundup of three high-profile cases making waves right now, drawing parallels to our own culty past: Sean “Diddy” Combs and the disturbing sex trafficking allegations tied to coercion and blackmail OneTaste and its founder's upcoming trial, with former members speaking out about manipulation and forced labor Harvey Weinstein's retrial, dragging survivors back into the courtroom and into public scrutiny yet again These stories echo so many of the same power dynamics, abuse tactics, and systemic failures we've explored since our NXIVM days. We also answer some big listener questions, from “Would you have stayed in NXIVM if DOS never happened?” to “Did I just get kicked out of a culty improv troupe?” It's a packed one. It's a timely one. And yes, there's a man bun running club cult theory in the mix, too. Got thoughts? Keep the voicemails coming.

In this episode, we dive into another story from How I Escaped My Cult — this time focusing on NXIVM, a group that didn't claim to be religious, but promised personal growth and empowerment.We break down how NXIVM used the language of self-improvement to lure people in, and how, despite the different promises, the control, manipulation, and abuse were alarmingly similar to what we've seen in religious cults.Join us as we talk about the red flags, the psychological tactics, and why no one is ever "too smart" or "too strong" to be targeted by a high-control group.If you or someone you love has left polygamy and needs assistance, please reach out to "Holding Out HELP" at 801-548-3492 or visit their website at www.holdingouthelp.orgAt Growing Up In Polygamy our mission is to "Create compassion for communities that have been misunderstood, marginalized and/or abused by their leaders, and to empower those who have left by giving them a platform to share their stories with the world."If you would like to DONATE to this cause you can do so here: https://donorbox.org/growing-up-in-polygamyInsta: @growingupinpolygamyNew website is now up! www.growingupinpolygamy.comTheme Song created by @artcowles Please feel free to reach out to us!growingupinpolygamy@gmail.com✅SUBSCRIBE NOW : https://shorturl.at/inqrE➡️ Checkout our other Videos:

Rick Welch speaks at Eric and Karen Ogea's home fellowship in Azle, Texas last Palm Sunday. He brings a view to the Sermon on the Mount, typically seen as a lesson on moral ethics, and breaks down what is actually going on. It is a covenant indictment on Old Covenant Israel, and the injection of the New Covenant explaining what it looks like. All of this was done on what Rick states is "the edge of an eschatological knife". This is a fresh look at The Sermon on the Mount through the lens of eschatology.

Narcissists have a canny ability to repackage traits like arrogance, self-importance, and a lack of empathy and sell them as charm, intelligence, or sensitivity. This “playbook” of calculated behaviors allows them to avoid detection and continue manipulating close relations or entire groups. On this episode of Transforming Trauma, CTTC Director and NARM® Senior Trainer Brad Kammer welcomes Mark Vicente, the award-winning writer, director, podcaster, and producer, to discuss the personal awakening that eventually prompted him to leave the NXIVM cult and contribute to HBO's documentary series The Vow and create the feature-length documentary The Narcissist's Playbook (currently in production). The pair delve into the role that narcissism plays in constructing cults and other high-control groups, as well as explore common narcissistic traits that impact individuals, groups, and societies.  About Mark Vicente: Mark Vicente is an author, speaker, and award-winning writer/director/producer from Johannesburg, South Africa. Growing up amid the atrocities in South Africa, he began questioning fundamental beliefs about human behavior, morality, cosmology, existentialism and mysticism at an early age. Unifying his love for science, philosophy, and film, Mark's vision took shape with “What the BLEEP Do We Know!?”. He later released “Encender el Corazón”, a powerful film about Mexico's kidnapping crisis. While the film touched many people deeply, it was by association supporting the criminal enterprise NXIVM. Mark withdrew the film and, alongside fellow whistleblowers, exposed the group, resulting in multiple arrests and prosecutions. His journey is chronicled in HBO's 15-part documentary series “The Vow”.  Mark has since focused on exposing the manipulative dynamics of high-control groups. He's currently finishing “The Narcissist's Playbook”, a feature documentary on narcissism, told through the unflinching accounts of four self-aware malignant narcissists, alongside insights from survivors, scientists, and mental health experts, filmed across seven countries.

This episode is sponsored in part by Betterhelp. We're back with behavioral science expert Laura Richards for Part 2 of our deep dive into coercive control—and how it shows up in some of today's most talked-about celebrity cases. Laura, who spent ten years at New Scotland Yard and helped establish the UK's coercive control laws, joins us again to unpack the ways power and control are used to manipulate, silence, and harm. This time, we dig into recent headlines involving Kanye West, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, Britney Spears, and the Depp v. Heard trial. Laura explores the public's reaction to each case, exposing how gender bias and societal conditioning influence who we believe—and who we dismiss. We also discuss how these patterns connect back to cults, Hollywood, and broader systems of manipulation. And since Laura's work centers around prevention, she asks Sarah and Nippy to reflect on what might have helped them exit NXIVM sooner. This episode includes a trigger warning for sexual assault, murder, and domestic abuse. If you haven't heard Part 1 yet, be sure to listen to that first.

This episode is sponsored in part by Betterhelp. What do serial killers, cult leaders, and domestic abusers have in common? According to criminal behavior analyst Laura Richards, quite a lot. In this powerful conversation, Laura explains the concept of coercive control—the psychological abuse tactic often at the core of these crimes—and how it plays out across intimate relationships, cults, and high-profile cases. Laura spent a decade at New Scotland Yard investigating rape, murder, and abduction. She went on to found the Homicide Prevention Unit and Paladin, the world's first national stalking advocacy service. Her work helped reduce the murder rate in the UK by 58 percent and led to coercive control being criminalized there. Now, she's fighting for similar legal reforms in the U.S. In Part 1 of our conversation, Laura offers insight into the behaviors and warning signs she sees in the cases of Gabby Petito, Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, “Dirty” John Meehan, British serial killer Peter Sutcliffe, Larry Ray (of the Sarah Lawrence cult case), and NXIVM's Keith Raniere. This episode gives you a new lens for spotting red flags—and a deeper understanding of how abusers manipulate power and control, so major trigger warning for sexual assault, murder, and domestic violence this week.

Today our guest is Amanda Rae, host of YouTube channel by the same name and former member of the Kingston Clan, or the Order, a polygamist group in Utah, not to be confused with the FLDS. Some of you may remember our previous guest Priscilla from the same group - both of these gals were on Escaping Polygamy. Amanda's going to tell us who the Kingstons are, how many mothers she had, and the principle of “pure Kingston blood” that led to people sometimes intermarrying with relatives - some of whom were underage girls. She'll tell us about how her 2 years at public school helped her think critically about the differences between what the cult SAID about outsiders and people of color - versus the reality that they were just normal people, how children as young as 9 are sent to work after school, and why the day she left began with a physical altercation with a grown man in the group.

Today our guest is Maggie Rowe, former writer on Arrested Development and author of Sin Bravely, a book about her experiences with moral scrupulosity, or sin-focused OCD. We talk a lot about OCD on this show, so here's a guest who wrote an entire book about growing up with religious obsessions! She'll tell us about her first obsessions about what was and was not sin, how she started to analyze the Bible with a critical mind to try to understand how to avoid hell, and how her parents tried to help but her church leaders didn't understand OCD and made it worse. We'll talk about the compulsions she would engage in to make sure she was being the right amount of righteous, how she checked herself into a treatment facility for Christians, the incorrect diagnosis of bulimia she received, and how she finally got diagnosed with moral scrupulosity and began getting the treatment she actually needed.

Former pastor's son Caleb Ward joins Lola and Meagan to share his experience about the height of evangelical culture in the early 2000s in a church called Kingdom Life Ministries. Caleb discusses growing up in an environment where everyone was speaking in tongues and having loud prophecies in the middle of church, the pressures that come with being the son of a pastor, how heightened emotional experiences keep people connected to their churches, wild evangelical youth culture involving Christian rock, how good church leadership can actually exist, and why shunning is one of the worst parts of modern Christian religion.

Today is part 2 with Uriah Wesman, former member of THREE different cults. This week he'll talk to us more about cult #2, the Hearts Center (which was an offshoot of cult #1 from last week), what it was like being a rebellious emo kid slowly starting to realize inconsistencies in the church, and how his dad discovered cult #3 in Canada, the Ideal Society. We'll talk about why he loved Canada so much, how he became obsessed with Alex Jones in his rebellious phase, and what that third cult - a vegan meditation cult - was like, being surrounded by adults who spoke French and didn't want him there. Plus, how he ended up leaving, and how creating a one man show helped him process his experiences.

Mark Vicente is an author, speaker, and award-winning Writer/Director/Producer from Johannesburg, South Africa. His passion for filmmaking began early, taking his first photograph at age four, he worked his way up through the ranks of the camera department to become a director. Because of the atrocities in his native South Africa, he found himself propelled to question certain fundamental assumptions at a very young age. Beliefs about human behavior, morality, cosmology, existentialism and mysticism. Unifying his love of science, philosophy and film-making, Mark's dream of creating cinema to inspire and provoke thought began to emerge with the creation of “What the BLEEP do we Know?!” Several books have been written about the film's remarkable grassroots marketing campaign, which led to its unprecedented success. Later, Mark released ‘Encender el Corazon', a film about the rampant kidnapping epidemic in Mexico. It was bittersweet victory; while the film touched many people deeply, it was by association supporting the criminal enterprise NXIVM. Mark made the difficult decision to pull the film from distribution and, with a small band of whistleblowers, exposed their criminal behavior, resulting in multiple arrests and prosecutions. This journey is captured in the 15 part HBO Documentary Series “THE VOW”. He has since developed a keen and passionate interest in exposing the coercive and duplicitous environments of high-control groups. He is currently in post-production on ‘Empathy Not Included' (The Narcissist's Playbook) a feature-length documentary exploring one of the most pervasive and often misunderstood mental pathologies in our culture: Narcissism. Shot in seven countries and viewed through the lens of four self-confessed, self-aware malignant narcissists who openly share the secrets of how they operate with uncensored candor, the film follows their disturbing stories, juxtaposed with the growing body of wisdom from victims, survivors, scientists, and mental health professionals.

Anthony "Nippy" Ames, a former college athlete and aspiring actor, became involved with NXIVM, an organization that presented itself as a self-improvement group. Over 12 years, he advanced within NXIVM, becoming a teacher and establishing centers in New York and Vancouver. He met his wife, Sarah Edmondson, through the organization. Upon discovering NXIVM's illicit activities, Ames took decisive action to expose the group's misconduct. He played a pivotal role in dismantling NXIVM, contributing to the arrest and conviction of its leader, Keith Raniere, who received a 120-year prison sentence. Ames and Edmondson co-host the podcast "A Little Bit Culty," where they discuss their experiences and engage with fellow survivors and experts. #NXIVMCult #InsideACult #KeithRaniere #CultSurvivor #TrueCrime #MindControl #EscapingACult #JusticeServed Thank you to ROCKET MONEY for sponsoring today's episode!: Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

Could a convicted cult leader actually get a new trial because of FBI misconduct? That's the question hanging over Keith Raniere's case, as allegations of tampered evidence and manipulated metadata surface. While the branding, coercion, and disturbing power dynamics of NXIVM are well-documented, former FBI agents now claim that crucial digital evidence—particularly in relation to an alleged minor—may have been altered. If true, does that mean Raniere gets a second shot at freedom, or does the mountain of other evidence against him still seal his fate? Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins the discussion, breaking down what this could mean for the future of the case. If the FBI cut corners, should it matter when the defendant is someone like Keith Raniere? #NXIVM #KeithRaniere #TrueCrime #FBI #EvidenceTampering #CultMindset #Justice Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

How do you recover from the realization that the “light at the end of the tunnel” was actually a train of manipulation, coercion, and abuse? For former members of NXIVM, the journey from devotion to disgust is riddled with shame, denial, and the unsettling aftermath of seeing their so-called "leader" still hailed as a hero by some. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott dives into the psyche of those ensnared by Keith Raniere's twisted ideology, unpacking the vulnerabilities that allowed his influence to take root. How do survivors reconcile the horrifying truths about the branding, coercion, and abuse that have been proven in court, while others still cling to Raniere as their "Vanguard"? Is it denial, rationalization, or something far darker? And what about Raniere himself? Does his defiant self-image make him an even greater danger should he ever regain freedom? Most chillingly, if called upon to prosecute him again, would survivors be willing to reopen the wounds and face the man who once wielded such control over their lives? #TrueCrime #NXIVM #KeithRaniere #CultSurvivors #Psychology #ShavaunScott #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Did The FBI Just Give NXIVM Founder Keith Raniere A Shot At Freedom? What happens when the justice system itself becomes the story? The NXIVM case, infamous for its branding rituals and coercion, now faces allegations of FBI evidence tampering. With claims of manipulated metadata, breached protocols, and staged searches, questions loom over whether investigative integrity was compromised. Could this alleged misconduct lead to charges against agents, or even retrials? And if so, how does it impact the victims who've already endured enough trauma? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer dives deep into the mechanics of investigations and the disturbing possibility of wrongdoing from within.

What happens when the very system meant to deliver justice is accused of tampering with the truth? The already twisted tale of NXIVM, Keith Raniere, and the sinister DOS subgroup takes an even darker turn as allegations emerge that FBI evidence may have been manipulated to protect a predator. Survivors of Raniere's coercive cult—marked both physically and psychologically—struggle to heal while grappling with the shadow of potential injustice. With accusations of altered evidence, branding rituals that defy comprehension, and the chilling question of Raniere's intentions from the start, this case is a labyrinth of manipulation and denial. How do some survivors find closure while others cling to their allegiance?

Today our guests are historian Philip Deslippe and writer Stacie Sutkin, who together have done investigative reporting on 3HO (“happy, healthy, holy organization”), Kundalini yoga, and Yogi Bhajan. They're going to tell us how they got started writing about 3HO, both interacting with Kundalini yoga in different ways, who Yogi Bhajan was and whether he had any credibility in the Sikh religion (spoiler: he did not), and how he began to get white Americans to believe he was the ultimate spiritual authority, rapidly expanding and profiting off of the money and property of his followers. They'll tell us about some of the many ways Yogi Bhajan exerted control over his followers lives, the practice of separating children from their parents in a practice called “distance therapy,” and the boarding schools kids were sent to for years that turned out to be neglectful and abusive, all within full knowledge and approval of Yogi Bhajan. Plus, the wave of survivors that came forward to tell their stories of his and the organization's abuse, and how they were failed by 3HO's reparations program. We have deals for you!

Join Laura and Sarah Edmondson as they break down cults, coercive control, narcissism and psychopaths, as well how to help someone who is being manipulated and controlled. Sarah is a 12-year-NXIVM-member-turned-whistleblower. In March 2016 Sarah gathered with several other women in the belief they were entering a secret sisterhood they were told was created to empower women. She was not prepared for what came next. Each woman was told to strip naked and branded with what turned out to be Keith Raniere's initial – the ultimate act of ownership and coercive control.
