Welcome to the un-cult-ured podcast!

So you just left a cult, and you’re trying to figure out how to get caught up on all of the pop culture references you keep hearing… But where do you begin? It can be overwhelming to try and catch up on decades of references. That’s where this series comes in!

Join us for our “pop culture primer” series over the next few weeks as we help breakdown some of the “must see” movies, tv shows, books, and “must play” video games.

In our final episode in this series this week, we are tackling books!

 

Check out our discord! We have lively discussions about all things nerd and exJW culture. :)
