Ep. 1: What Makes a Cult? REMASTERED (Fundamentalism / BITE Model / Life Story / Christianity / Jesus / Religion / Baptist / IFB / First Baptist Church of Hammond / Introduction / Pilot / Pokemon)

In the pilot episode of the Leaving Eden Podcast, we meet our hosts, cult survivor and cult expert Sadie Carpenter, and her co-host, Gavriel HaCohen. We get the overview of Sadie's life story and learn about what the difference is between a cult and a religion.  Gavri'el introduces the homework section, in which Sadie is assigned media that she missed out on growing up in a cult. This episode's assignment is the first six episodes of Pokemon Indigo League. This episode has been remixed and remastered. Special thanks to the AWESOME graphic designer Rachel Zylka, who made the artwork for this remastered series of episodes.
