Holy or Hidden?
from Clam Slam · host Adrianne Creek
This episode is not another tired segment about magic underwear or trashing religion. It’s about the things they don’t teach in Sunday school: that unity can come at the cost of your truth, compliance gets mistaken for love, and identity is often the first thing you’re asked to sacrifice for family. I give a hot take on cults and why Mormonism is more complex than that label, grieve the loss of belonging, rant a little, and ultimately reclaim my agency. This is an episode about control disguised as care, obedience framed as virtue, and what happens when you stop shrinking just to stay connected. If you’ve been praised for being easy to manage, this one is for you.
