272. Scientology Took My Mom From Me To Destroy Me

Claire Headley is one of the highest ranking former scientologists to grace the On the Edge with Andrew Gold podcast. She talks about the secret language inside, the whereabouts of the leader's wife Shelly Miscavige, exposing the worst scientologists, starting auditing at 14, being in the SEA ORG at 16, and losing her mom to the cult.

What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.

Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.
