Mitch was recently rejected - so today's episode is for him and anyone who is dealing with or may in the future deal with being rejected.

Cults are fascinating but dangerous, so is it time to join a commune? Today we talk about the psychology of cults, and why communes may be a separate helpful way to live together and be better for the environment.
