About this listen

The Jehovah’s Witnesses have come under scrutiny in New Zealand and around the world. This powerful episode of Decult Talks brings those together who have exposed and transmuted cultic harm in their own ways.

Hosted by RNZ reporter Anusha Bradley, the international panel features Australian activist Lara Kaput, US filmmaker Scott Homan and NZ victim advocate Shayne Mechen, with powerful video insights from Micki McAllen (also known as Apostate Barbie). Together, they explore the complex intersections of control, resistance, and healing after leaving the JWs.

Recorded live at the first Decult Conference in Christchurch, New Zealand and produced as a podcast by Plains Media.

Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that blends activism, storytelling and advocacy to illuminate these critical issues.
