It's fifth Tuesday and that means it's interview time. Adding to the Morningland Papers, we'll sum it up for the year with a long awaited interview. In Ep. 67 I read a statement from him. Check that out. In Ep. 67 Steve Ryan let me read his story summing up his time in Morningland.

On this 3rd Tuesday, I'll explore how cults and religions use food deprivation against us for a means of control. It's very effective. I can see doing much more on this at some point, but this'll get you started on this massive topic, talking cults in the news to exemplify the tactic of food deprivation they so frequently go to.

It's 2nd Tues. and that means sexuality is our go-to topic. What is a sex cult? You may have heard the term, but sex goes on everywhere? What joins the two elements creating a new more powerful game? Because let's be truthful, sex is powerful and everyone knows this. But add #becausejesus and well, that's too powerful. David Kouresh had all the wives. No man could have sex with his own wife at their compound. He too, had a sex cult...
Keeping with our 1st Tues. theme, its all about coercion. Is there a more coercive bunch than new age religion groups and leaders? Even the followers become auto manipulators. Picking up from Ep. 29 (Intro to New Age Religion), we explore Madame Blavatsky and the roots of Theology and her society in the 1800s which shows up in our society today.

Pre-empting the usual 2nd Tuesday theme, we will complete part one of Mom's interview about Morningland. In Ep. 71 we brought you audio from 1987 showing how the clergy treated my Mom at the curb while she tried to visit her daughters on their birthday for the third year.
Today, we complete a task we started in episode 12 of this show - Mom's full Interview - it's been only 35+ years coming in some ways. Mom reveals the story of ho...

It's 4th Tuesday, and our focus is on cult kids, aka adult children of cults.This time, extending the chat from Ep. 68, we'll keep going with how music is used in cults, and how it goes directly to the brain and how it does that.
Today I'll also sample a song from the cult in Japan called AUM. It's pretty creepy. Kids throughout the country and world sang it right up until he was sentenced to prison for subway killings. Alright...

It's 4th Tuesday and time to examine life as a cult kid. This time I explore the concept of faith healing through time, how it soured a cult kid on medical treatment and how we pay the price. But this is weird and complicated a bit more than I thought.
