Project Hope Podcast
The Project Hope Podcast is for families and friends with a loved one in a group of high demand / high control. Our aim is to provide hope through the stories of people who have both left such groups, as well as families, partners and friends who have struggled with the loss or distance of a loved one to such a group. We interview experts on psychological and social patterns that are found within these dynamics. In both round table and interview discussions we explore and debate some of the baffling and challenging issues that arise for both those leaving these groups, and those on the outskirts, wondering what to do.

Brian McDowell & Troy Waller
As teenagers, Brian & Troy were recruited into large Pentecostals churches. After decades of involvement with movements such as c3, The Australian Christian Churches (Assemblies of God) and the Revival Centres, they finally broke free in their 30s and 40s. They now offer commentary on Evangelicalism and Exvangelicalism and sound the alarm that these churches are not as harmless as they might appear. They also tell the stories of their own church experiences that negatively impacted them on the spectrum of religious trauma. In 2021 Brian & Troy started the podcast as a platform to tell the stories of their time in fundamentalist churches. It was soon apparent that there are many others who are impacted by their experiences and share similar scars from the highly manipulative, controlling and damaging effects of fundamentalist and Evangelical Christianity. The podcast now has a weekly audience of thousands from Australia, the USA and around the world.

Cults Podcast
Based off of the hit podcast, CULTS: INSIDE THE WORLD'S MOST NOTORIOUS GROUPS AND UNDERSTANDING THE PEOPLE WHO JOINED THEM is this summer's essential reading for any true crime fan. CULTS unfolds the many motives behind groups like NXIVM, Heaven's Gate, the Peoples Temple, and more, taking an expanded look at the people who led and followed the most radical organizations in history. What powers did their leaders possess? How did their followers operate within the world? Why did their beliefs stick, even after they'd grown bizarre? CULTS is an unflinching exploration into what happens when the most vulnerable recesses of the mind are twisted into the lowest forms of malevolence -- revealing eye-opening details which will surprise even the most devoted true crime fan. If you love the Cults podcast, this is the next-level companion that will take you deeper into the dark side of human nature than ever before. Ten disreputable cult leaders. Ten stories of power, mystery, and destruction.

Nathan G. Alexander

You Are Not So Smart Podcast
The central theme of You Are Not So Smart is that you are unaware of how unaware you are. There is an old-and-still-growing body of research across several disciplines with findings that suggest you have little idea why you act or think the way you do. Despite this, you continue to create narratives to explain your own feelings, thoughts, and behaviors, and these narratives – no matter how inaccurate – become the story of your life. You Are Not So Smart is a fun exploration of the ways you and everyone else tends to develop an undeserved confidence in human perception, motivation, and behavior. I hope by reading it and listening to the podcast you'll rediscover a humility and reconnect with the stumbling, fumbling community of man trying to make sense of things the best we can.
