We thought for a second this podcast might be a book club. For the first episode, we read a memoir by the youngest member of the Manson Family, who ended up being the sole witness in the case of People v. Charles Manson (before senior prom!). It's an intense book that really illuminates how the sexual revolution left girls behind, the reasons a young person might be vulnerable to the influence of a charismatic cult leader, and how absolutely insufferable hippies were. Have you ever seen Strangers with Candy? This is the prequel.
This week we read: Member of the Family: My Story of Charles Manson, Life Inside his Cult, and the Darkness that Ended the Sixties by Dianne Lake
