Episode 348: Three Friends Who Like To Talk About Cults with Jane Borden

Doree and Elise speak with culture journalist, editor, and author of Cults Like Us: Why Doomsday Thinking Drives America Jane Borden about how America’s earliest days make us uniquely susceptible to cult like thinking, the traits of individuals who join but are able to leave a cult later, and how social media has created a perfect environment for falling prey to the allure of charismatic leaders. Plus, Jane shares a surprising tidbit of her book that got left on the cutting room floor.
