American actress and former Scientologist Leah Remini is out to prove that the group's most famous member, Tom Cruise, is not the nice guy he seems to be.

The actress has a new podcast, Scientology: Fair Game, which centres on Scientology's alleged practice of using intimidation to silence its critics.
