Porkins Policy Radio episode 190 Black Budget with Folie a deux

June 12, 2019 – 11:26 pm

This week Folie à Deux joined me to discuss Black Budget, the new comic series he wrote and illustrated. The discussion opened talking about the comic itself, which addresses mind control and MK Ultra. The history of MK Ultra and other government-sponsored programs fill the discourse and the book. We also discussed how this topic is covered in the alternative media and conspiracy culture. Later some of the hidden messages and Easter eggs throughout Black Budget are revealed. We also talked about the 1983 invasion of Grenada and the subsequent bombing of a mental hospital which some have suggested was a site of mind control experiments. Also discussed are the connections between Grenada and Jim Jones and many more real life easter eggs.

Open Minds On Air episode 5 Brainwashing and Cult Apologists

July 28, 2018 – 5:58 pm

From OpenMindsFoundation.org

In this episode, Jon Atack and Pearse Redmond speak with their good friend Yuval Laor. They start by discussing a recent article by professor Rebecca Moore entitled The Brainwashing Myth, dissecting the strange assertions Moore makes, primarily that brainwashing does not exist. They also talk about her three “scientific, neutral, and precise” terms which can replace brainwashing.

Jon and Yuval talk about the historical roots of the term from ancient China to the through reform camps of the 50’s. They also address our problems with the flawed term “new religious movement”, discussing Moore’s history defending Jim Jones and The Peoples’ Temple. They talk about her sisters, Carolyn Layton and Annie Moore, both high-ranking members who organized and oversaw the murder of over 900 people. They look at how this has colored Rebecca Moore’s books defending Jones and the legacy of the Peoples Temple. They close out by talking about the problem of arguing over semantics within the counter-cult world.

What do you think about this podcast? Do you agree? Do you have a story about brainwashing – or the misuse of the term – that you’d like to share? We’d love to hear from you!

Porkins Policy Radio ep. 28 California Cults with Aaron Franz

September 6, 2014 – 2:56 pm

From Scientology to the Peoples Temple, the state of California is awash in prominent and powerful cults. Our good friend Aaron Franz joins us to discuss this bizarre phenomenon. We discuss several high-profile cults in the state and how they have influenced the people and culture of California. Aaron and I break down Scientology and explore how a cult whose membership is made up mostly of high profile celebrities has become a powerful culture creator within society. Aaron explains how groups such as The Process Church and The Summit Lighthouse use occult teachings within their cult when indoctrinating their members. We also discuss how this is really the corruption of the occult for nefarious purposes. Aaron and I also go into Jim Jones and The Peoples’ Temple, discussing how one cult leader was able to change the face of politics in San Fransisco. We end by talking about yoga and veganism, and how both of these fads are also not only misunderstood, but are being used in a negative way. This was an especially fun episode to record and is also filled with quite a bit of humor.

NOTE: My apologies for the audio issues through out the episode. We had some internet connection problems.
