Joe Marler's Things People Do
Crowd Network
Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too. Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do. Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.

About Cults (Part One)
What's it like to be in a cult? To be told you'll only live until you're 14 but that's ok because you'll be X-men and you're being raised as soldiers in the Armageddon? To fight in the last battle between good and evil? Well, our guest Bexy Cameron went through all that and a lot more. Bexy is incredible, but we should warn you, a lot of what she went through is really quite dark.Bexy's book is out now - it's called Cult Following and it's fascinating.This episode is a two-parter, because we all needed a break after 49 minutes.Grow the Show, become an official sponsorSee acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
