Episode Description
Guest: Mara Einstein, Ph.D
Moderator: Charlotte Howell, Ph.D
In this episode, Dr. Einstein & Dr. Howell discuss Einstein's newest book, 'Hoodwinked', which sheds light on why cults are now seemingly everything, from cult brands to multilevel marketing to politics. Digital technologies fuel this phenomenon by replicating the perfect scenario for cults to thrive, including fomenting in-and-out groups, valorizing charismatic leaders, and isolating people into limited belief systems.
