#230 Raised in Scientology: Derek Bloch

The 28 year-old talks about being raised in the Church of Scientology by a narcissistic father and passive mother. He details the abuse inflicted by their "Sea Org" starting when he was 13, how he reconciled their homophobia with his being gay and ultimately how he broke away from the church and his family.
