The Common Cult

Join us and we have a conversation with Megan Cox about her experience with the Remnant Fellowship. The Remnant is the cult like group that is the focus of the HBO series "The Weigh Down." Today Megan talks about her experiences, what drew her in, and ultimately, what caused her to break away. You don't want to miss it.

Remember the Satanic Panic of the 90s? What was THAT all about, and is it still alive and well today? Listen in as we share what we thought we knew about Satanic Panic, how it plays out today, and how cult like behavior gets involved. You don't want to miss it!

What color are you? Is it possible to tell anything about a person from the color of their aura? What even IS an aura? Listen in this week as we talk about auras, aura readings, and whether or not we deem it pure fun, problematic, or somewhere in between!

What's your sign? This week we are covering all things astrology! Is it culty or a harmless belief system? Can celestial bodies influence our self actualization? Listen in as we share are honest biases and discuss a brief history of astrology and how it influences our culture today.

We're getting into the October spirit by deep diving all things mystical and occult-adjacent and we're starting with crystals! Can crystals heal your headaches or bring you abundance? Or are they just a sparkly tchotchke with good vibes? Listen in as we talk about the history of crystals and their role in spiritual healing and eastern and western medicine. As usual we ask, is this a little bit culty and how do we feel about it?

When you hear the world "cult" the first words that come to mind for most people are words like weird, scary, and whacky. But there's this saying, "no one ever joins a cult." This is because there's usually some kind of draw like community, meaning, or belonging. Do cults or cult like groups ever offer anything beneficial? This is what we're exploring this week. Enjoy!

The Silent Generation, Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, Gen Z...these are the generational boxes that we find at the center some meme culture that fuel "culture wars." But are these wars even real? Listen as we break down the characteristics of these generational boxes and discuss our own biases, thoughts, and experiences. We'll ask the question: "Are these labels helpful or harmful?"

You are what you think about. Like attracts like. You have the power to manifest your own reality. Do these phrases sound familiar? Do you resonate with these phrases? Do you think manifesting culture can be problematic? This week we are taking on the topic of "Manifesting Babes" or, more accurately, internet manifesting culture and how it's influenced our own lives, how it's helped us, and how it's influence has played out in negative ways. We have a LOT of feelings and experiences about and with manifesting, and we hope you'll enjoy our conversation today.
