Was I In A Cult?

The Lost Children of Scientology Pt2: “Free At Last”


Listen Later

(Content warning: child abuse, psychological trauma, and forced labor.)


What happens when a child escapes a cult… only to be hunted, harassed, and invoiced for the “honor”?


In Part 2 of Jamie Mustard’s staggering story, we pick up with his teenage years— going deeper into the reality of life inside Scientology’s Sea Org—the labor, the fear, the indoctrination, and the slow, devastating unraveling of family.


But this is more than a story of survival. It’s about a boy who was stripped of education, family, and identity… and still found a way to outsmart the system that tried to erase him. It’s about rewriting your future when you were never taught how to read the past. It’s about the children who were trained to never speak out—and the rare few who do.


An unforgettable chapter in one of the most important cult stories we’ve ever told.
