There is no new podcast this week due to the Labor Day holiday.
I thought it worth listing all the diverse list of podcast guests and topics we have done so far. There are more to come. If there are any episodes you have missed, you can find them here with links and give them a listen.
It’s been quite a ride. It continues.
We appreciate all the support of our faithful listeners and those who have sent in questions for the popular “Listener Question” episodes.
You can also find all the episodes and the supporting documents for each at fairgamepodcast.com which also includes a Glossary of commonly used scientologese.
Since I don’t do social media, it’s not clear to me where to ask ?’s for your Q & A shows. It’s never announced on the ‘cast. I will try it here:
What I’ve always wanted to know is who audits Muscavige?
Here is fine. Or on the podcast website at fairgamepodcast.com or on Twitter
So many more things are going to happen still, like whatever will replace the Freewinds (the Flag Building and maybe some rented ships?), upcoming criminal and maybe class action lawsuits, the horrible truth about whatever happened to Shelly Miscavige, another celebrity defection, upcoming power struggles for a shrinking pie, maybe even a staff rebellion.
I will love if you invite Dr. Janja Lalich or Rose Mcgowan to the podcast !

EIN Presswire: New book about Scientology, L Ron Hubbard and Fine Arts is published in Hungarian

/EINPresswire.com/ — In a recently translated book of Massimo lntrovigne into Hungarian, he explores the ideas of the founder of Scientology on aesthetics and the arts, an important and rarely studied part of his religious worldview.
This book is now available in English, French, Spanish, Italian and now also in Hungarian. Its original title is “The Most Misunderstood Human Endeavor: L. Ron Hubbard, Scientology, and Fine Arts”
In his book, published by FoRB Publications, Introvigne further discusses the influence Hubbard had on contemporary artists, whom lntrovigne interviewed in different countries. Hubbard wrote extensively about the visual arts and during the last part of his life, he came to what he described as a codification of the aesthetic theory, which included statements on communication, technique, perfection, color, and rhythm.

That should be “FORB Publications (aka FORB Press) is owned by the Church of Scientology THROUGH the Spanish Foundation for the Improvement of Life, Culture, and Society.”
FORB Summary to Date:
The Church of Scientology owns FORB through it’s subsidiary the Spanish Foundation for the Improvement of Life, Culture, and Society.
FORB publishes books in multiple languages that are favorable to Scientology, New Religious Movements and religious freedom generally. Even the latter books on NRMs and religious freedom benefit Scientology by: (1) creating a more favorable, accepting and tolerant environment for Scientology,; and (2) helping it form alliances with other churches, religions and civil rights organizations.
The advantage of FORB for the Church of Scientology is that FORB does not appear to the public to be associated with Scientology, and indeed appears to be completely independent. Moreover, it publishes books that have a serious, indeed academic appearance. FORB produces stealth, pseudo-academic PR at the book level.

These are such great podcasts. Thanks for these.
PS Mike has the best laugh, usually at some insanity of Hubbard, or Hubbard’s insane organization… always cheers me up!
This was a great edition of your podcast. It was the very best podcast ever.
Thank you Mike.
I can hear the screaming ” internet is evil” , ” social media is run by Psychiatrists”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good job Mike & Leah
I want to object to Scientology being tax exempt. All the petitions about that I could find, except Move On, were closed. Where can I most effectively protest this tax emption they receive from my Government?
Happy Labor Day to you and Leah! I was curious—have you spoken much with Hubbard’s son Arthur? I stumbled upon a blog that he appears to have started at https://arthurconwayhubbard.com/
Would love to hear him as a guest on the show if he is interested!
Thank you. Have a safe and fun Labor Day, everyone!
