Über diesen Titel

We’re two best friends on a journey through cult recovery. Wheeee! We are on a mission to gain perspective, discover our values, tell some stories, and deconstruct the fucked up belief system from whence we came.

This podcast is about learning to navigate life after growing up in an environment that discouraged questions and encouraged us to hate ourselves. It’s about normalizing talking about the subjects people LITERALLY join cults to avoid thinking about.

Follow along as we make some educated guesses and invite some educated guests to share stories, call out patterns, and trade tips on how the hell to heal from all this shit! Sorry, mom! Sorry, Jesus! We're happy to disappoint.

    Ep 12: The Nick of Time with Nick Hays
    Oct 2 2025

    It’s our Season One FINALE, folks! Our guest this week is a guy we found in a bar that one time: Nick Hays. As the Living Word Fellowship was falling apart, Nick had a backstage pass to all the red flags as he and Leandra started to date, and also, Stasia was there!!! Now he’s here to share his unique perspective as an outsider with inside information on the collapse of a cult. Join us as Nick takes us through the timeline and recollects:

    • Meeting two babes at the best bar in Burbank
    • Being reassured our church was “Not that kind of church”
    • Finding out it is!
    • Finding out it’s MUCH much worse!
    • 2018 and beyond!

    Don’t fret! We’ll be back this winter with a CHRISTMAS TRUCK Special (*ominous jingle bells*) and we’ll be super duper back in Spring 2026 with a whole new season!

    Ep 11: The Motherlode - Part 2 With Sandra Alex
    Sep 19 2025

    She’s BACK, ladies and gentlefriends, and she’s here to tell you some more wild shit in a really calm tone. This week is part deux of our interview with Sandra Alex, and we’re picking up exactly where we left off: with Sandra headed from Rio to Iowa. She’s a metaphorical mother to all, and literal mother to Leandra, specifically. Join us once again as we hold our collective breaths and listen to Sandra remember:

    • Trying to be part of the “IN” crowd in Los Angeles
    • Getting electrocuted at 18 because of a pastor’s negligence
    • Her own understanding of the “Vision of the Kingdom”
    • A “Prophecy” to John Robert Stevens from a KKK-affiliated “ministry”
    • Navigating her faith after 2018 Cult Implosion
