About this episode

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.
