To celebrate this monumental milestone of 300 episodes, I have remastered my early interview with living legend and leading cult expert Janja Lalich. I listen back and wonder what I would ask differently if Janja and I interviewed in this style again. This conversation took place within the first year and first 100 episodes of the show. Since then, I have learned a lot and worked more with Janja and reflecting back on the journey of the podcast has been interesting this week. If you've tuned in from the begining, or just finding the show now, thank you for listening. Here's to the next 300!
