What is this cult called "the family"? According to the promo it involves only republicans.

Wiki article. There have also been some articles about/excerpting Sharlet's book; they might have been posted on FR.

Looks like it is another name for the “Children of God” (COG) cult

I used to listen to this show often. Until I heard Art Bell supporting the Zero POTUS. (Art Bell you are a loser)

Im not sure about the other new guys hosting - doesn’t matter, its not worth the time anymore.

I'm not sure about the other new guys hosting - doesn’t matter, its not worth the time anymore.

I don't listen to C2C much (gotta sleep some time) but from what I've heard, the new weeknight host, George Noory, is pretty hard on the current administration (regular listeners, that's pretty much correct, isn't it?). Give him a listen.

"[R]esearcher Jeff Sharlet will discuss the frightening connection between power and fundamentalism in a secretive cult called "The Family", that teaches Washington lawmakers that people chosen for leadership are above morality."

Here you will find that it ain't them it's us. Typical C2C host and guest, haters of anything Bush-Cheney Republican.

Here's some favorable comments by "The Family" reviewers from Sharlet's website.

"The Family is the new “must-read” “tour de force” from Jeff Sharlet, the writer whom Ann Coulter calls one of the stupidest journalists in America. You decide!

“Just when we thought the Christian Right was crumbling, Jeff Sharlet delivers a rude shock: One of its most powerful and cult-like core groups, the ‘Family,’ has been thriving. Sharlet’s book is one of the most compelling and brilliantly researched exposes you’ll ever read–just don’t read it alone at night!”

Dear hearts, they think we're the guvmint and they are sore afraid..and when you sore afraid you flat scared!

Noory has permitted discussion of Obama's birth certificate. He would not permit Dr. Corsi -- a long time regular guest -- to talk about Corsi's book "Obama Nation" unless there would be someone there to refute Corsi.

Noory and some guests have expressed concern about the state of things economic, war, culture. . . .

Rarely is President (Noory insists you call him president) Obama's name mentioned.

Muckraker Alex Jones is no longer on as often, he has a report featuring wrong doing by Obama.

Fair enough. It's Noory's show and he hates Bush/Cheney Republicans.

Now contrast that with the eight years of G.W.Bush and R. Cheney. Noory hated those two with a purple passion.

Muckraker Alex Jones was practically a co-host with his many Bush/Cheney reports exposing wrong doing in places I didn't know we had.

Noory and most guests expressed concern about the state of things economic, war, culture?

They sure did! It's Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . .Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . . Bush-Cheney's fault . . . .

Thanks Perdogg.

Not just Republicans. During the primaries the Obamaoids were outraged that Hillary was one of “them”.

[QBFimi]

Does anyone actually listen to this krap?

[xero]

Sad. Art, way back was a conservative. use to listen to him when he had Doc Democrat, and Charlie Liberal call in almost nightly.Then he dropped politics, and went into flying saucers.

I really enjoy John Batchelor. He sounds gay but he has a wonderful mix of history, literature, politics, intel, and classical music or other aspects of culture. Absolutely fascinating every time. Much rather listen to him.

I listen to C2C sometimes late at night when I’m working, for laughs. It can be truly funny. Monsters, chupacabras, aliens, conspiracies, ghosts, you name it. What I like about Noory is that he’s kind and supportive to the poor pathetic people who call up with addle-brained questions.

Ian Punett is a Christian and is the occasional weekend host. He seems to be politically conservative. He invites scientists on to discuss their legitimate work sometimes. And both he and the guest scientists are painfully polite to the morons, too.

Lotta sad people out there.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

DISGUSTINGLY biased dnc propaganda.

Really, really disappointing. Expected more from Ian.

Worst bias I’ve (ever) heard on the show - and that says a lot..

Wouldn’t be surprized if the guest author, has ties to the American Socialist Workers party. Totally series.

HAM-HANDED PROPAGANDA. Really, really bad.

Ian Punett is a Christian and is the occasional weekend host. He seems to be politically conservative.

There must be two Ian Punnets then.
