The Cult of Apple - Sounds Like A Cult | iHeart

<p><strong>The stigma around the green text bubble alone could ruin a man's life. How has Apple's secretiveness, superiority complex, and (admitted) marketing genius put our culture's social dynamics and behaviors in such a chokehold? In this week's much-anticipated 'sode, Amanda and Isa analyze how Apple built not just a multi-trillion-dollar tech business, but a "cult" (allegedly!!!), and spoiler alert: We're all a part of it, whether we like it or not.</strong></p> <p><strong>To support Sounds Like A Cult on Patreon, keep up with our live show dates, <a href='https://www.isabelamedinamate.com/'>see Isa's live comedy</a>, <a href='https://bookshop.org/p/books/cultish-the-language-of-fanaticism-amanda-montell/16290306?ean=9780062993151'>buy a copy of Amanda's book Cultish</a>, or visit our website, <a href='https://linktr.ee/soundslikeacult?fbclid=PAAaYBgao1sr5jTUWCOpwlTgX1J64B8_4zYo2lLhfmEzdbVMEpDqKbo7WC-EI'>click here</a>!</strong></p>
