Web Exclusive: Podsauce Talks with Liz and Tyler host of 'Was I In A Cult?'

In this Podsauce web exclusive, Dax and Alesha are joined by the creators and hosts of the popular new podcast “Was I In A Cult?” Hosted by documentary filmmaker Tyler Measom and writer/comedian Liz Iacuzzi, the podcast showcases the survivors of cults, at once humanizing the cult experience and proving just how easy it is to fall prey to the sociopaths and psychopaths who lead them.

Alesha and Dax are ready to hop right into their favorite episodes, but first, Measom and Iacuzzi give more of a breakdown of their podcast. “Was I In A Cult?” features firsthand accounts with the survivors of cults across the nation, from Children of God to NXIVM. Not only are episodes first-person experiences, but Measom and Iacuzzi will profile the cults and their leader, what it takes to lead a cult and what it takes to leave a cult both physically and mentally.

Iacuzzi points out that the podcast is actually hopeful and inspiring despite the gravity of the topic. As their guests are telling their stories, both Measom and Iacuzzi will add levity to the conversation with their humor and also explanations of any terms or practices that are unfamiliar. As a documentary filmmaker, Measam knows a thing or two about adding levity to harsh realities, speaking on how it not only deepens the emotional aspects of the story but also gives the audience a chance to breathe.
