Ep. 289 The History of Synanon Episode 13 Remastered

Since I recorded this episode over 3 years ago, I have realised it is prounounced "dee-derich" not "ded-erich" - my apologies!

In this episode, we take a deep look into the very first, no doctors, drug rehabilitation programme and how it turned from a group of fellow recovering alcoholics and drug addicts offering eachother support, right through to extreme cult behaviour leaving abuse and terror in its wake.
