And now for something completely different: we interview each other with five pre-planned questions. But there's a twist—each will ask one wildcard question the other isn't prepared for!

Falon opens up about how another cult, Scientology, helped her see the Jehovah’s Witnesses for what they are and explains why Christianity resonated with her. She even tackles the controversial question: should women "be quiet" like the Bible's Paul says?

Jason shares his aha moments about the ORG, how he played “Candyman” to test the devil, why he ultimately landed on disbelief, what being an atheist of Jehovah means, and the mistakes he made on his way to personal freedom.

In this special interview episode, lifelong friends Falon and Jason dive deep into their unique journeys after leaving the Jehovah’s Witness organization. They explore how they both broke free from the high-control religion, but their paths couldn’t be more different. Jason, now an atheist, and Falon, a Christian, share five core questions that reveal their “aha” moments and the challenges they faced in finding their true selves.

This candid conversation will give perspective on two very different journeys out of the same cult.
