A psychological cat-and-mouse game — but who is the cat, and who is the mouse?

The stories we consume become the realities we live in. But who is telling the story… and why?

A tale of deception and betrayal, The Unraveling pulls back the curtain on Hollywood’s reality-making machine — revealing how predators hide in plain sight and manufacture the narratives they want us to believe. Follow the evidence to uncover what’s truth… and what’s illusion. By understanding the tactics of psychological manipulation, we can begin dismantling their influence — in our media, our institutions, and our own minds.

Because inside the dream factory, reality itself is under construction — and nothing is what it seems.

    (Trigger Warning at 4 min.) The kids in Liberia are shocked to learn Strongheart is moving to Texas and leaving them behind. Their permanent home of healing is converted into a surf hostel. Some of the kids stay on to work while the owners try to generate a tourism industry in Liberia from the ground up. But why didn't Strongheart report the sale? And why is the Pope involved?Contact: micajringo@ pm dot meShow Notes:Cori Shepherd Stern, American Refugee - https://youtu.be/9dolEOdduNU?t=24662012 Form 990 - https://app.candid.org/profile/8940934/the-strongheart-group-26-2190101?activeTab=7Strongheart House - https://web.archive.org/web/20120831205113/http://www.strongheartfellowship.org/shhouse.phpVolunteer Describes Experience - https://share.google/1xdd1O98rgLMDonXOStern's Quote "It's so twisted" and "hate masquerading as love" - https://kitchentablecult.com/2023/07/14/s5e14-shiny-happy-people-part-2-cori-shepherd-stern/Daniel Hopkins Interview https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2014/10/12/ebola-wipes-out-liberia-surf-camp-plan/BBC Profile - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-18523721Time - https://time.com/119491/liberia-goes-from-warzone-to-surfing-mecca/On Surfari w Shane and Shannon McIntyre: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBgwdsqCavk Cori on "Being a Producer" - https://kitchentablecult.com/2023/07/14/s5e14-shiny-happy-people-part-2-cori-shepherd-stern/Alphanso Appleton:2009 Reuters Video - https://web.archive.org/web/20210720192441/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zDpO1YT8ukBYU Profile - https://kealakai.byuh.edu/campus-community/capturing-a-full-lifeAudio Interview - Therapist Uncensored https://therapistuncensored.com/episodes/tu109-this-is-resilience-in-action-with-guest-alphanso-appleton/French Interview - https://observers.france24.com/en/20140609-surfing-waves-liberia-robersport-beachPoetry - # [Strongheart](https://alphansosworldofpoetry.blogspot.com/2011/01/strongheart.html)https://www.theinertia.com/surf/the-thriving-surf-culture-and-perfect-empty-lineups-of-west-africa/https://www.surfer.com/news/survivors-surf-clubSean BrodySean Brody as Messiah - https://web.archive.org/web/20140709020418/https://kwepunha.com/team/Surfing Prevents Conflict: https://m.naharnet.com/stories/en/131993-liberia-on-the-crest-of-a-wave-as-surfing-takes-offTouting political connections and community ties: https://1library.net/article/brody-social-impact-business-sustainable-stoke-transitions-sustainability.qvpnoedqGeneral Background - https://htmedge.blogspot.com/2012/11/sean-brody-from-liberia.htmlPublished Credits - https://www.stokecertified.com/team/sean-brody/ESPN Post - https://web.archive.org/web/20130105214238/http://espn.go.com/action/surfing/blog/_/post/8676924/the-rise-liberiaScholas Occurentes:Sean Brody and Pope - https://youtu.be/MOrIV9AkCkQ?t=4241Surfers Visit Vatican - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8JZCOcZK1oScandals: https://www.catholicworldreport.com/2020/10/24/financial-and-operational-questions-surround-scholas-occurentes-pontifical-foundation/https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/246398/does-a-pontifical-foundation-use-pope-francis-to-spread-gender-ideologyKwepunha Surf Retreat - first page in wayback machine is March 11, 2012https://web.archive.org/web/20130608131233/https://kwepunha.com/https://web.archive.org/web/20131013203158/http://kwepunha.com/vision/https://web.archive.org/web/20140710015040/http://www.kwepunha.com/properties/Grace Freeman Interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIZsVkVybOQLiberia Tourism:https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20151022-the-making-of-child-surfers-not-child-soldiershttps://www.outsideonline.com/adventure-travel/destinations/africa/chasing-adventure-corners-world/https://bubblegumclub.co.za/community/the-emergence-of-liberias-surfing-culturehttps://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/san-diegans-try-to-save-liberia-surf-shop-after-ebola/62635/Circumstantial Indicators of Trafficking:https://www.ungm.org/Shared/KnowledgeCenter/Pages/OpIndhttps://www.ungm.org/Shared/KnowledgeCenter/Pages/SHTFLResourcesSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-unraveling/donations
