71. UR iN A CULT - a story by ALLiSON HUDSON

ur moms bestie ✨ Season 4 Episode 71

In this hilarious and eye-opening episode of The Mid Mom Podcast, host Al Hudson introduces her (totally real, definitely Pulitzer-worthy) book, UR iN A CULT. With her signature wit and no-BS attitude, Al breaks down cult characteristics like love bombing, strict rules, punishments, financial exploitation, isolation, extreme devotion, manipulation, and fear-based control.

But here’s the twist—these tactics aren’t just for the Jonestowns and Heavens Gates of the world. Nope! Al makes the case that fan clubs, political parties, multi-level marketing schemes, and even mom groups can have cult-like tendencies (yes, even your local PTA).

So grab a Diet Coke, buckle up, and get ready to question everything—including whether you’ve been unknowingly indoctrinated into Swiftie Nation. Oh, and spoiler alert: Al's planning to drop You’re in a Cult in her store soon. Stay tuned!
