- Survivor Story with Cindy - The Insight Program, Atlanta, Georgia: Abusive relationships after you leave
This week I talk to Cindy, a survivor of the Insight Program in Atlanta. A common thread of survivors of any abusive high-control group is that they continue to find themselves in abusive relationships after they leave.
Cindy wanted to tell her story to help others who may currently be in an abusive relationship or recovering from one in the past.
‼TW/CW for discussion of psychological/emotional abuse.‼
There's a little bit of everything in this episode: death threats, Scientology, Nissan Sentras, and dropping out of school. This is a good one, y'all. Enjoy!‼️

- Survivor Conversation with Mike Harper - The Crossroads Program, St. Louis, Missouri
This week Mike and I are live on Twitch talking about Dr. Steve Hassan's BITE model. Check out Dr. Hassan's website here: https://freedomofmind.com/cult-mind-control/bite-model/
We started with the "B" in BITE: Behavior Control. It didn't take long for us to come to the conclusion that enthusiastic sobriety programs are, in fact, a cult. Enjoy!

- Hyde School Survivor Part One: Rachel - The Hyde School, Woodstock Campus
What do cold food, forced exercise, and being blindfolded and walked into the woods in a blizzard have in common? They're all used as forms of punishment at the Hyde School in Bath, Maine!
This week's guest is a survivor of the Hyde School's Woodstock campus that has since been shut down. But before you high five us, they are still operating in other parts of New England and are owned and managed by the same people. Who thought that was a good idea? This is exactly why the #ACCA is so so important.
Grab a glass of champagne and give a listen to our New Year's Eve episode with Rachel. She has a horrifying yet all too common story to tell you all about her four years at Hyde.

- Survivor Story: Creator of the "Jim Jones" Facebook page - The Pathway Program, Phoenix, Arizona
This week I interview the notorious "Jim Jones". Jim Jones was a Facebook account that popped up circa 2007 and blew up overnight. Jim Jones was speaking the truth about enthusiastic sobriety programs, and people were listening. It was the first place on Facebook for survivors to connect and tell their stories. Our movement would not be where it is today without this Facebook page. This is the first time creator has opened up about who they are and what it was like to be...Jim Jones.
Grab your popcorn, because they have a story to tell! Remember to join us tomorrow around 4pm Central live on Twitch.

- Daniel Kolitz, author of "The Love Bomb" (Part One)
In this interview, Daniel and I talk about the article that took over his life for 3 years: The Love Bomb. He explains how he stumbled on the story, and what it was like interviewing survivors of Bob Meehan's programs. We discuss Bob’s shady past that no one can quite verify or explain and whether or not him starting a cult was intentional or accidental. We could have talked for much longer, so we decided there will at least be a Part Two. If you have any questions for Daniel let us know and we’ll answer them in the next installment.

About On the Emmis
From the publisher's feed
Cults and cult-like organizations are front and center in society today—as they should be. We are becoming more aware of the insidious abuse perpetrated by programs that are supposed to help young…
people in the Troubled Teen Industry. Combining true crime, cult recovery, and a lot of dry, dark humor, the On the Emmis podcast unpacks and unveils the inner workings of Enthusiastic Sobriety Programs created by Bob Meehan and other high control groups. We'll have bi-monthly episodes that dive deep into specific topics, interviews with professionals and activists or survivors telling their stories.
