This week I chat with former Sea Org member Aaron Smith-Levin, recently featured on Leah Remini’s A&E show, Scientology and the Aftermath. We discuss our mutual history at the PAC Base when Aaron was my junior (!), what it’s like to get a hate website from Scientology and what kind of reactions Aaron’s been hearing from under-the-radar Scientologists upon seeing him on TV. 
Music by Pale Blue.

Inside Scientology and the Sea Org with Aaron Smith-Levin

A podcast about cults, coercive control and recovery. Formerly called the Sensibly Speaking podcast, in this weekly show host Chris Shelton interviews cult survivors, psychologists and other professionals and specialists about the topics of cult recruitment, retention and recovery. This also includes non-religious cults and extreme political movements including the more divisive elements of MAGA and left-wing culture war issues. There is nothing off-limits but we always try to be respectful of the people involved even if we do not respect the beliefs or actions involved.
