With all the talk about political affiliations being similar to cults we decided to talk about what defines a cult and a bit on the reasons for joining one. During the discussion we talk about how psychiatry has looked at cults and if treatment after cults is just another type of brainwashing.
Hosts: Dr. Parks, Dr. Yamaguchi, Dr. Ortega, Dr. Atkins
Guest: Saloni Singh, MD
