Lauren Hough (@laurenthehough) joins Kieryn and Eve to talk about her brilliant debut book, Leaving Isn't The Hardest Thing (April 2021), a collection of essays about what life has been like after being raised in the cult group Children of God.

Kitchen Table Cult unpacks all the things Kieryn and Eve learned at the kitchen tables of their childhoods in conservative Christian homeschooling families. Every week we take your questions and drill down on various topics about Quiverfull, the Religious Right, and our childhoods in high-demand groups (otherwise known as cults). We’re not surprised about the rise of Trump, Christian fascism, or evangelical white women voting for someone like Mike Pence, and we want to take you back through the beginning of it all to explain why.
