This is an IHeart podcast.

Everyone thinks they'd never join a cult.

But it happens all the time to people just like you.

And people just like us.

I'm Lola Blanc.

And I'm Megan Elizabeth.

We're the host of Trust Me, a podcast about cults, manipulation, and the psychology of belief.

Each week we talk to fellow survivors, former believers,

and experts to understand why people get pulled in and how they get out. Trust me, new episodes

every Wednesday on exactly right. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Bob Crawford,

host of American History Hotline, a different type of podcast.

You, the listener, ask the questions.

I'm so glad you asked me this question.

This is such a ridiculous story.

You can listen to American History Hotline on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I'm Jeff Perlman.

And I'm Rick Jervis.

So we started digging and uncovered city officials bent on protecting their own.
