In this wide-ranging and deeply honest conversation, former orthopaedic surgeon Doc Malik sits down with artist Jake Fern to explore cults, trauma, religion, and the courage to question everything. Ahmad shares what it was like growing up in the Ahmadiyya community and the psychological impact of leaving a belief system that defined his entire world. Together they unpack how childhood experiences, generational trauma, and identity shape our attitude to certainty, alternative thinking, and spiritual searching.

The discussion moves through breakdowns, prophecy, and the challenge of admitting “I don’t know.” Exploring the foundations of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism, this episode wrestles with faith, ego, humility, and meaning. Along the way, Doc reflects on the hidden realities of modern medicine and professional culture.
