Or
If I were to say: Picture a cult. What kind of image do you get in your mind? Hooded figures around a bloodstained alter? A forest commune of hippie types practicing free love? Or a large , identically dressed congregation being led in a mass ceremony?
What if I brought you and expert who was part of a cult for 20 years and still lived his life from his own home just like any other normal person? Because I did.
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. I'm your host as always Colton Petry.
My guest today is Peter Young. Peter lived his life as a sports broadcaster, covering events far and wide, on tv screens and radio programs regularly, all while slowly being drug into the dark bowels of a cult by the person he loved most in the world. Obviously, he's made his escape since then, but it was far from easy or clean.
Let's avoid getting indoctrinated!
I hope none of you are in any cults right now, small or large. If you are... stop it. Come on, stop that. And if you're the godhead figure running a cult currently, hit me up. That would be a fascinating interview and might go nicely towards completing a full religion episode series for the show.
Anyway, that's it for today! Have a great week and I'll hopefully see you all back here on Thursday! (If I can get a guest and episode together)
