Today's show features David in conversation with Liz Hernandez, an Emmy-nominated television personality and journalis...

How do conspiracy theories go from swirling on social media to besieging the U.S. Capitol? What happens when a prophecy’s deadline passes and doesn’t come true? And how do we reintegrate into society those who have fallen for an alternate unreality? This episode welcomes back Matthew Remski and Julian Walker, hosts of the Conspirituality podcast, to the show for a wide-ranging discussion on cult psychology and recovery.
Each week Jeff writes a Sunday article titled Commusings where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture. Today’s topic is a big one: Love.

Each week Jeff writes a Sunday article called Commusings, where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture. Today he attempts to diagnose, through personal narrative, the psychologic breakdown that led to the assault on the nation’s capital and prescribe solutions that may help bring society back to a more common understanding of reality.

The key lies in calling each other forward, rather than just calling out.
