This week I have former Sea Org member Marc Headley on for an extended-length interview about his history in Scientology and the Sea Organization, how he met David Miscavige and what life is really like at Scientology’s International Headquarters and he talks about tales Miscavige used to tell about Tom Cruise being the most dedicated Scientologist on the planet.
This was a great interview with Marc – I swear I am speechless!
Thing is, I know every word is true — your interviews keep geting better and better, Chris. Good for you.
Just watched your video. I read Mark’s book a few years ago and was riveted. I was on mission staff in the late 70’s and as hard as that was it was nothing compared to the Sea Org. I’ll never forget being at Flag (our Mission Holder was being comm-evved and I was there as nanny); there was a public person lounging by the pool waiting for sessions I guess. He somehow swallowed the Sea Org kool aid and I soon saw him dressed in blue and pushing a laundry cart, sweating. He looked a little shocked. I knew that wasn’t for me. My husband kept asking why Mark stayed so long. I had to explain once you’re in the prison of belief it can be hard to break out. Plus Mark had to physically break out too. Anyway I loved the stories, Mark was hilarious and you worked together well. Great show!
