The Getting Real with Hilary Show with Hilary Burns
Guest, Peter Young, Amazon best selling memoir Stop The Tall Man, Save The Tiger
Want to have your eyes opened? Today I interviewed, Peter Young, author of "Stop the Tall Man, Save the Tiger." I can't stop thinking about our conversation. I had read Peter's book and was lucky to be able to ask him all the questions I had after reading it.
"Did you know you were in a cult?""Did you wonder if something was wrong?""Did you have doubts?""How does someone know how to do this to you?""Did you do it because your wife was beautiful?"
Peter was gracious enough to answer all of my questions as he told his story. I recommend his book. Here is a quote that says it all: "A must-read to be warned of the dangers of cult leaders, who appear with charm, intelligence, and knowledge, but slowly prey on your vulnerabilities. Peter’s story could happen to anyone."
When you are in a cult, you don't know it. Peter was raised by 2 loving Christian parents in a nice home. He was the youngest of 5 boys, had a good college degree and a growing career. And yet, he found himself brainwashed for over 2 years and trying to get approval from the cult leader.
If you know people who are being isolated and you are worried about them, reach out to Peter. His goal is to spread the word and educate people on cults.

Guest Name, Peter Young
You never know you are in a cult, you only know you were in one. I unwittingly married into a small religous cult. Twenty years later, our cult leader, the mysterious "Uncle Robert" had brainwashed me and my entire family, engineered the destruction of my marriage, and collapse of my family. But I escaped and recovered, thanks to my friends, family, and Christian faith. I also spent years trying to rescue my children, breaking a multigenerational curse. I wrote about my bizarre experience in my Amazon best selling memoir Stop The Tall Man, Save The Tiger. Cults control through secrecy, paranoia, and isolation. After being silenced for so long, I am now speaking out about the dangers of small religious cults.
A story teller first and foremost, Peter is the author of the Amazon best seller Stop The Tall Man, Save The Tiger, which tells the story of his escape from a tiny religious cult. He is a regular podcast guest and public speaker, sharing his story and the dangers of small cults to audiences around the world.
Peter’s first book, The Blue Team, is a novel about faith and basketball and conquering your greatest enemy.
Prior to his writing career, Peter was a sports broadcaster for over 20 years telling the stories of great athletes all over the world, while working for CBS, ESPN, OLN, and other networks.
He now lives near Bozeman, Montana with his children and several pets and is working on the sequel to The Blue Team.
