Haven’t finished reading yet, but I feel obliged to flag* (like anywhere else where they come up) that this paragraph:

*The reason I think this should be stated every time is that there are many new people coming in all the time, and it’s important that none of them encounter these people without the corresponding warning.
Completely fair—I’m not endorsing him, just pointing to a source for the allegation. (And more recent allegations, about a compete lack of control and self dealing, are far more damning.)

I think this comment would be much more helpful if it linked to the relevant posts about Leverage rather than just called Geoff a “known cult leader”.
(On phone right now but may come back and add said links later unless Guy / others do)
