About this episode
Hosts Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock and Jason Concepcion shine a light on the mysterious world of the ETO.
Minkie Spiro, one of 3 Body Problem’s directors, opens up about filming one the series’s most harrowing scenes and the moral quandary that unfolds in its wake.
Maggie and Jason also call on the expertise of Dr. Alexandra Stein, social psychologist and author specializing in cults and extremist groups, to scrutinize the ETO, and explain the real world markers of a cult.
SPOILER ALERT: We will be covering episodes 4 and 5 of the series, so if you haven’t watched that far yet, be sure to catch up on Netflix now.
