You're not controlling, you're a 1. You're not dramatic, you're a 4. You're not avoiding your problems, you're a 7. This week, certified 3's, Reese and Iman investigate the cult of the Enneagram, where a mysterious set of numbers has convinced millions of people they finally understand themselves, their exes, their coworkers, and the reason they forgot to text back. They're joined by Enneagram expert Ashton Whitmoyer-Ober (@enneagramashton) to unpack how Enneagram has become a sacred culty language for explaining literally everything. We dig into its surprisingly mystical origins, devoted followers, and the irresistible appeal of having your deepest flaws neatly organized into a convenient numerical category. Whether you've spent three years debating your wing, accidentally made your type your entire personality, or have weaponized attachment styles and the Enneagram in the same conversation, welcome home. The numbers already knew you were coming. Subscribe to Sounds Like A Cult on Youtube!Follow us on IG @soundslikeacultpod, @amanda_montell, @reesaronii, @chelseaxcharles, @imanharirikia.

Maybe you hated the kids who went. Maybe you were just mildly annoyed by them. Maybe, you were one of them. No matter your relation, most people have encountered today's cult in one way or another. Whether you were soaking up the spotlight or cringing from back home, the cult of Theater Camp is always looming just in the wings. Is the world of adolescent summertime theater nothing more than a harmless, whimsical romp, or is there something sinister going on behind all that jazz? Bonafide theater nerds Amanda, Reese and Chelsea are joined by none other than Anna Camp (@therealannacamp) and Dara Sussman (@daralaine) in this week's stage-fright inducing episode to get to the bottom of it.

Episode 720 - Hollis Jo McCollum - Epic Dark Fantasy with Inspired Romantic SubplotsIn this lively author episode, Dave is joined by dark fantasy writer and podcaster Hollis Jo McCollum for an unscripted, improv flavored conversation about creativity, connection and the realities of podcasting as an author. Hollis broadcasts from Suwanee, in the north metro Atlanta area, where she loves the local community, walking trails and especially the vibrant Korean cafes and markets that have become part of her daily rhythm. Her podcast is called “I Do What I Want!” which she describes as both a catchphrase and a mindset; she is not belligerent, but proudly stubborn about creating on her own terms, using improv skills instead of heavy editing and embracing a live, unedited format on YouTube and Spotify so listeners see the authentic process, cats and all.Throughout the conversation, Hollis traces how improv, drama club and “yes, and” thinking shaped her confidence and on mic presence, and she and Dave dig into the importance of being fully present in conversations. That leads to a thoughtful tangent on how phones and constant screen time are eroding social skills and problem solving in younger generations, illustrated by a story about a Gen Z teen who is anxious about a simple interaction asking for napkins and by Hollis's partner's candid street photography full of “nose to phone” subjects. Both hosts advocate for being more present, talking to actual humans, and deliberately stepping outside comfort zones as a path to growth, creativity and better podcasting.Hollis then shares the origin of “I Do What I Want!” which began as a single planned episode about the Dungeons and Dragons campaign that inspired her novel “To Save a World,” recorded with her best friend of over thirty years. Unsure how to start, she actually hired a production company to help her set up her mic, hosting and Spotify presence, and discovered she loved the format enough to keep going, mostly solo, with occasional author friends as relaxed guests. That experience taught her how critical scheduling is: she originally aimed for longer, twice monthly episodes but quickly learned that with a full time job, writing, marketing and life responsibilities, she needed a realistic rhythm. Now she anchors the show to one live episode on the last Sunday of each month, built on a simple half page outline with a few milestones, trusting that the format and voice will naturally evolve over time rather than being over planned from the start.The episode also touches on her voice acting work, where she leans into character voices like the insidious villain Simoom, and on her strong feelings about listeners speeding up audiobooks and performance heavy podcasts. For Hollis, pacing, pauses and breathing are integral to emotional impact, so compressing audio feels like stripping respect from the performer and story, even though she concedes some people prioritize efficiency. As the conversation closes, Hollis talks about why podcasting remains worthwhile even though she is not chasing huge download numbers; it gives readers and potential fans a way to discover her personality, ask questions and connect outside crowded conventions. https://www.hollisjomccollumauthor.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca
When we first aired this episode, the “tradwife” trend felt like a bizarre internet niche. Two years later, tradwife culture has only exploded. This week, we're revisiting our episode with culture reporter Anne Helen Petersen (@annehelenpetersen) , alongside then SLAC intern turned permanent co-host and producer of the show, Reese Oliver, in her debut episode! Together, they unpack the aestheticized world of “traditional womanhood,” where hyper-curated domesticity collides with political extremism, anti-feminism, and the growing influence of manosphere ideology online. What once looked ironic or fringe now feels deeply embedded in the zeitgeist. So while the Sounds Like A Cult team takes a much deserved break, we're falling back down the tradwife rabbit hole.

This week on Talk World Radio, we have the great privilege of speaking with John Sayles. John Sayles is an independent filmmaker, screenwriter, actor, and novelist. He has twice been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, and once for the National Book Award. He has written eight novels, including, most recently, Jamie MacGillivray and To Save the Man, and his latest which we will be discussing: Crucible.
What if the right words could rewire your brain… or at least make you feel like they did? This week, Amanda is joined by journalists and hosts of the podcast Mind Games, Alice Hines (@alicehines_) and Zoë Lescaze (@zoelescaze), to unpack the cult of neurolinguistic programming, the self-improvement framework that promises transformation through language, mindset shifts, and a little bit of psychological sleight of hand. They dig into how NLP showed up inside NXIVM and explore why these techniques can feel genuinely helpful in everyday life, and how the line between self-help and manipulation often comes down to who's in charge. Amanda even tries an NLP session herself, which is equal parts intriguing and slightly unsettling and begs the question: is NLP a useful set of tools… or a very persuasive vibe?

This week, Amanda and Chelsea dive into the cult of OneTaste, the controversial wellness company that built an empire around “orgasmic meditation.” To help break this one down, they're joined by journalist Ellen Huet (@ehuet), whose reporting pulled back the curtain on the organization's rise from buzzy Silicon Valley sex startup to full blown scandal that involved allegations of coercion, manipulation, and high control group dynamics. They unpack how OneTaste marketed intimacy as enlightenment and why so many got pulled into its orgasmic orbit. Is this a groundbreaking sexual wellness movement… or a textbook case of culty self help?

In this essay, Maria Chomard examines the transatlantic anarchist mutual aid initiative after World War II, focusing on its attempted reunification and the tensions between universalist politics and Jewish postwar relief. Through this case, she argues that the Holocaust constituted a structural rupture in anarchism's social and moral economy, reshaping practices of solidarity and contributing to the movement's postwar crisis. Maria Chomard is a historian with a Ph.D. from the University Paris 8 Vincennes — Saint-Denis, specializing in transatlantic Jewish anarchism. She recently published “To Save the Saviors: Reorganizing Anarchist Solidarity in Europe after World War II,” in S. Korbel and P. Strobl (eds.), Practices of Reunification: The Continuation of Refugee Life after 1945 (Routledge, 2025).

Introduction -“If someone asked you, Why did Jesus come? How would you answer?”“And what does His mission have to do with your marriage, your parenting, your friendships?”Those aren't just questions for each other here on today's podcast. If you claim to follow this Jesus….It's a question we ALL have to be ready to answer. 1 Peter 3:15 says “But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,”Jesus didn't come just to save us from something—He came to invite us into something.Key Scripture Luke 19:10 – “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”Background - What Was the Mission of Christ?Core Truth Jesus' mission was redemption, reconciliation, and restoration—bringing people back to God and restoring God's design for life and relationships.Break it down:A. To Reveal the FatherJohn 14:9 – “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.”Jesus showed us: God's love, his mercy and his truth all in one being. B. To Save the LostMatthew 1:21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,[a] because he will save his people from their sins.”Jesus didn't come just to forgive our sins, but to transform our lives.C. To Fulfill God's Promises and Establish the Kingdom of GodLuke 4: 18-19 but also found in Isaiah 61-The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind,to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.Discussion Prompt “How does your picture of God change when you look at Jesus?”Advice - 3. How Did Jesus Live Out His Mission?Jesus' Method MattersA. He Came CloseB. He Built RelationshipsC. He Served, Not ControlledApplicationThe mission of Christ is relational, not performative.It starts at the table, not the stage.4. How Do We Fit Into Christ's Mission Today? A. We Are Sent PeopleB. He's called us to Reflect Him, Not Replace HimC. Mission Begins at HomeChallenge - So as we close…Let's us just share some Practical Ways to Live on Mission This Week Simple, attainable steps:Pray daily with IntentionPractice PresenceModel Christ at HomeInvite Others InReflection Question“If Christ's mission was love and restoration, how will my life reflect that this week?”Support the show#Rocksolidfamilies, #familytherapy, #marriagecounseling, #parenting, #faithbasedcounseling, #counseling, #Strongdads, #coaching, #lifecoach, #lifecoaching, #marriagecoaching, #marriageandfamily, #control, #security, #respect, #affection, #love, #purpose, #faith, #affairs, #infidelity
How do writers develop their voice, showing us what is important in life?ADA LIMÓN (24th U.S. Poet Laureate, Startlement, The Carrying) explains that her poetry begins with a bodily sensation or curiosity, not an idea. She values the space and breath poetry offers for unknowing and mystery, finding solace in the making and the mess, not in answers. She discusses being free on the page to be her whole, authentic, complicated self.JAY PARINI (Author, Filmmaker, Borges and Me) calls poetry the prince of literary arts—language refined to its apex of memorability. He recounts how his road trip with Borges around Scotland restored him from depression and anxiety following the Vietnam War death of his friend.JERICHO BROWN (Pulitzer Prize-winning Poet, The Tradition, How We Do It: Black Writers on Craft, Practice, and Skill) discusses the rhythm of black vernacular and capturing "symphonic complexity of black life". He shares how he's found a way not to think about personal risk as he's writing.ADAM MOSS (Fmr. Editor, New York Magazine; Author, The Work of Art) relates David Simon's concept of the bounce, in which creativity gains momentum as it is passed between people.VIET THANH NGUYEN (Pulitzer Prize-winning Author, The Sympathizer; To Save and to Destroy) discusses his path to expansive solidarity and capacious grief and how it works against the state's power to divide and conquer. He emphasizes that literature is crucial because authoritarian regimes abuse language; a commitment to the beauty of language is a commitment to truth, and fear is often an indicator of a truth that needs to be spoken.To hear more from each guest, listen to their full interviews.Episode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast
