[@mangoman7591]

Who would you like me to interview next for Mangotology?

[@joesnow2637]

Fantastic interview Steven,this interview was by far your best,you listened to your guest without overriding him you did an outstanding job....Well done 😃😃😃

[@LusciousTwinkle]

Well done for leaving Joe. It takes courage to leave an abuser like that and even more to speak out. Really, she needs shutting down.

[@kevinmurphy5920]

Wow, an hour & 16 min video! I bought pizza, a drink, & now I'm watching this! :)

[@MangoTea]

Who is watching this after today’s Hollywood Reporter article came out about Gloria? ⤵️

[@johnpfmcguire]

Okay, nobody should ever feel guilty for lying about their personal life when some cult freak asks aggressively. That is spiritual self-defense. No more false guilt.

[@johnpfmcguire]

@rmkplus4 I'm not in the video, but I'm flattered

[@nancyjones6780]

I love that you are working to expose Scientology. Very dangerous group! One suggestion.... I noticed that each time I began to become engaged with what your guest was saying, you would interrupt him and either hijack the conversation or redirect his thought so it was impossible to truly follow his story fully. Work on that bc the subject matter is important! Thanks

[@starrwilson2941]

Steven you are precious! I love the way you are honest and straight forward about your experience with Scientology and some of your haters need to keep in mind that you gave Scientology a genuine effort when you joined. Keep up the good work!😁👏👏

[@vera_nika2]

Thank you for exposing another aspect of the cult.. your name was mentioned on a quite recent interview on the Surviving Scientology channel...

[@lesleysimpson5793]

What I find interesting is that an acting school would need "officers". For What? So happy to see you back doing videos, Steven. I like the new format bringing guests on to talk about their experiences.

[@jtroozy]

They help spread lies. Report back to her. They’re given discounted monthly tuition. Basically just extensions of her

[@josenrebeca]

looks like you can put scientology and narcissism side by side and they are the same

[@loulalucille8946]

I was thinking the same thing, Rebecca! Scary!

[@danielmatus9000]

Angry Gay pope would be a great person to interview. He is also very handsome!

[@smudgeeee6259]

@Mofo agreed

[@lronhubbard8031]

GREAT INTERVIEWER AND INTERVIEWEE WHO CLEARLY UNMASKS THE WOLF IN SHEEPS CLOTHING.

[@brandirose3874]

If it Sounds too good to be true, then it Probably IS!

[@shannongeorgiapeach76]

Putting aside just for a sec., labeling people SP, auditing, fair game and disconnect, has Scientology become more dangerous and even worse than it was when LR Hubbard was in charge?

[@shannongeorgiapeach76]

@Nyree Harris 👍thanks much

[@finkjonas7903]

Sounds like the class was a fake class, meaning all the students were Scienciologist pretending to be students

[@Leezl41]

This is amazing...I stumbled into your videos. Steven: you are so brave as is Joe. I'm a Catholic & have not encountered Scientology that I know of...but, you are educating me so that I might educate & equip my teenage son about this & other cults & their methods. Bless you guys & your mission! I am sharing your videos & Leah"s w my friends & family. This exposure is great GREAT + STRONG - BRAVE WORK ..Caring for your fellow human beings.

[@jenburlock377]

Good another person escapes the grips of a crazy cult, may you find joy outside the cult like so many have, Joe!

[@shaylap6851]

I love your videos. You guys deserve happiness

[@robertflint2549]

Excellent interview, Steve. First class.

[@ladydowney2000]

I've just googled her and went on that website with the reviews. It is so obvious that those 5-STAR reviews are fake. All those "words cannot describe how great she is" phrases make me laugh, and if you see such phrases repeated it's obvious it's fake.

[@jtroozy]

That’s because a lot of them are written by students. Some nights she would have us all go on our phones and compose positive reviews and opinions.

[@ladydowney2000]

@@jtroozy Best wishes to you !

[@mrs.elentz2336]

Watching on my phone, and I legitimately thought this was Gordo from Lizzie McGuire!! Alright, now off to watching the video lol...

[@julierichardson750]

Suggestion:sitting on the couch looks a bit awkward. Perhaps sit at a table with comfy chairs. I am a viewer am glad you are interviewing others to get the word out about this insidious cult.

[@scarletspidey6898]

truly fascinating learning all this stuff and before shows like yours and leah's I thought that it was just a kooky place with weirdos..but they truly are damaging to families and people's finances it's nuts...keep up the hard work man I def support what you do.

[@Trixie-jp2iv]

Hey from Baltimore ! Have to give this a 👍before i even watch it lol because i really look forward to anything new from you - you’re so upbeat 🤗 !! It’s a shame this cult cannot seem to be brought down 😡 Very interesting to hear more about them but truly sad to know how many people have been and continue to be taken advantage of in such a way . Enjoy your weekend☀️!!

[@dkbegue]

Great conversation/interview

[@louisdevalois4358]

Great job Steven! I have always despised that cult whose name Ii shall not speak. It is very interesting to hear of the horrors that go on in that place that dares to call itself a church from someone who was right in the middle of it. I do not mean to discount all of the others who have escaped, but I it was your honest and down-to-earth commentaries are a form of confession. I understand your fears and panic attacks, who, in their right mind, would not? It may sound superficial, but really there are 2 choices: live the rest of your life in the past, i.e., the church or a new, knowledge filled one. When you feel that old life tugging at your happiness, remember this: don't look back, only ahead It is basic but it has the cornerstone rebuilding my own life. And, consider yourself lucky that you did not waste much more time there, as so many others have. Sorry about the essay but continue to look ahead.

[@sabrinatenney]

You are a great interviewer!

[@dyanshane]

Okay, i have been googling some names of former big wig Scientologists who have left the cult and are vocal. WHY is it that people like Mike Rinder, Tom DeVocht and so on the top stories are these Scientologist blogs, or freedom magazine? This did NOT used to be this way. Is Scientology PAYING google to be on top? WTH?

[@finkjonas7903]

Interview those two guys that are in jail forgot their names , interview criminal Scientologist, interview Steve Fishman in jail

[@loulalucille8946]

It breaks my heart that something called a "religion" could make someone feel like they should cease living. I'm so glad you both survived Scientology! Look at you now!! Helping others being damaged as you were! Sending love from the midwest!

[@georgielockhart6686]

Steven, as a gay man. Were you treated less within Scientology? How did Scientology affect your identity as a gay man?

[@spotswood69]

I'm surprised I never heard of Gloria from those Celebrity Centre seminars either! Besides The Acting Center, the teachers who would show up to those seminars were Mark McPherson, Robert Lyons, and Lynette McNeill. I audited some of their classes but they were never run like Gloria's. I also don't remember any Scientology terms dropped either. Richard Lawson is also a Scientologist. Though many of the Beverly Hills Playhouse teachers have left Scientology, Richard did not and now how his own school.

[@miriamrose2]

You can interview ppl via zoom if they arent in LA but the subject matter in interesting.

[@melbournemickoz8078]

Kinda upset I followed someone who studied with Gloria and constantly praised her and then I hear this - but I could see she was 'dodgy'

[@pageroman3498]

I feel him on the Christmas thing. I love the look of it, I love giving gifts. However anything major in life normally not so good stuff happens Christmas time.

[@blackpunisher1547]

Where do I find more info on this Mangotology religion? Is it homosexual friendly?

[@fmbighair]

2:20 that guys sounds exactly like Kip from Napolean Dynamite..

[@lessofyou]

Advice, for the next interview try to 10 o'clock - 2 o'clock classic interview set up. Look at other interviews how they place the seat of the interviewer and the seat of the interviewee. It looks more natural, now you have to turn to the guest and it looks a little awkward.

[@pattithompson1278]

You guys should start a school

[@WatchingDude]

You need a mic closer for better sound.

[@Jennyisms_jen]

The comments regarding auditing and how she was almost auditing with her words makes me think of interrogation. If you ask someone enough questions over and over, then eventually they are just going to give in. That's an interrogation tactic. Abusive.

[@KMStarner82]

Hey Mango hon..have you spoken with Mike Rinder or thought to interview him?

[@KMStarner82]

@travis aaron what does queerness have to do with Mike Rinder? Nothing. If you know anything about the anti Co$ movement, Mr. Rinder is second to Leah Remni herself.

[@roux5642]

Please try to interview Jay Bakker. He is so open minded with lgbtq.

[@josenrebeca]

something is very wrong with scientology, and people is going to see it fall very soon, where is the leader? where is the money that they have scammed all these people? If I were u I would hire a couple of PI's and look it up more strongly the blindfold is about to fall and everybody is going to see their skeletons in the closet and I think that a lot of people will have to pay for what they are doing and for what they did, to you and everybody scammed that way I'm so sorry for what you went through I wish we will see justice someday

[@ripley2743]

Do you know Josh...he has a couple other names. He was an actor/scientologist who claims he was tom cruise's lover. He came on the internet and participated in a hangout community for a while. He would tell the tom cruise scientologist rumors.

[@jenburlock377]

I would like to see if you can have Danny Masterson come on and tell his side of the story.

[@jmklind]

He would never do that. Steven mango is an SP, Scientologists won’t speak to him.

[@jenburlock377]

@@jmklind I thought he was trying to get out of the cult too. And Mango isn't in that cult any longer, so what's the big deal about him talking to him? SP or not, people should be free to talk to whomever they like. I know in my former cult they have this disfellowshiping thing, but it doesn't stop me from talking to those who are kicked out. It's a form of abuse when people are treated this way, its morally wrong too!

[@sagittariusmoon1043]

Mango,,, is that Ur real second name! I love it 😂 xx

[@nituna27]

I keep watching these therapy videos of his...and cant help to think ...why are they sitting so close. I'm getting triggered. I know I need my personal space. At least 4 feet apart . Lol especially because they seem to be talking with their hands too, lol nah.

[@wealthconsciousness6725]

You guys know anything about Grant Cardone who’s a Scientologist and is really big online with sales, marketing and real estate investing?

[@spotswood69]

Steven said that he took courses with Grant.

[@phyllisjohnson8199]

Love your videos! But in this video you probably don't realize it, but you interrupt your guest a lot to get your opinion in. We want to hear the guest experience uninterrupted, until you have your next question for them.

[@brendawestee2932]

I googled Tony mainly looking for your two guests 3 videos as under cover Scientology exposure. I didn't realize he had authored another book about Paulette Cooper's horrid experience. My belief is Cooper's life was in danger and the whole fingerprints set up was a nightmare. Glad you name names on thier fake acting schools to take advantage of people's dreams. But isn't that part of Scientology's whole set up. Do watch Chris Shelton your name came up and he was respectfully concerned even called you Steven. Could listen to Leah all day. Anyone who might be critical good bye. That was more on the Tea channel. First time I caught a Scientology ad this video. Thier babble sounds like how to cure constipation, clear and unblock etc. I myself have babbled enough for now. Like your guests and current going ons. Look forward to seeing you more often. Think it helps in your healing and we see the aftermath (no plug on words intended). Marty big disappointment was a sellout $$$ literally. His past included cruelty and could have been forgiven if remorse was truly expressed. See you next time.

[@trojanette8345]

Have you, Steve or any of your followers seen this video ab't S- Australia? If not could you take a look at it and perhaps do your own video where you weigh in on what was said.: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2K8iKWbn6hqZ9E. Maybe compare / contrast how S- seems to operate betw America and the NSW area of Australia.Thanks for the consideration.

[@TheRandigav]

I'm 100% not meaning to be rude but I've heard from sum videos how scientologists don't believe in being gay .. I'm just curious if knew u were gay .. n again I'm not being rude or curious again

[@robertflint2549]

This interviewee uses the word 'like' too frequently. After a while it becomes wearing to listen to, like, oh my god, like...

[@bmk9844]

Okay, I think I figured out why I do not like watching your interview episodes. Be more interested in their story, and prepare your questions ahead of time. Asking 5 our 6 questions in one shot is confusing, overwhelming, and it is leading. It makes you look controlling and uninterested in the interviewee’s perspective. What you find significant and important on your journey is probably not going to be the same as another people’s points of importance. Try to really listen to them and not with so much disinterest and lack of emotions. Scientology is a very stressful, scary, and messed up topic. I would love to see more genuine reactions and interactions. If you do feel like you want to share your story and your perspective, I suggest doing a solo debriefing for your audience after each interview. I would absolutely watch both! But right now, your interview videos are no doing it for me. I will still watch your solo stuff.
