Summary

Welcome to Crawlspace. In this new episode, Tim Pilleri & Lance Reenstierna are joined by journalist, author, podcaster and new friend of the show, Leah Sottile. Leah has written a new book called Blazing Eye Sees All.

I'm Tim here today with Lance. Lance, how are you today? I'm doing fantastic today, Tim. I hope everyone who's listening. I hope they're doing fantastic as well. Our guest

0:38.0

brings to the table a conversation that right off the bat, I don't know about you, but it made me

0:43.6

feel a little bit uneasy. She wrote a book upon reading it. You do feel like the information

0:48.5

in that book is something that's very applicable, not only to past generations, but our current generation and inevitably

0:55.5

future generations. It's a fascinating book. It's a fascinating conversation. But Tim,

1:00.0

your mood is always fascinating to me. So if you don't mind opening up a chapter on that,

1:05.4

that would be amazing. Wow. Oh, good one there. It was a stretch.

1:13.1

make no mistake, the love has won is a reference to the religious group that was founded

1:58.0

by Amy Carlson, known as Mother God. She founded this love his one

2:02.5

religious group, but the techniques that she used in order to convince and manipulate and

2:08.7

brainwash her followers, mostly online, is very applicable to a lot of organizations that

2:15.3

look to garner as many followers as possible.

2:18.8

Okay, so check out Leah's book, wherever books are sold.

2:22.5

I think you'll really like this conversation and kind of ironic that it's being
