This unholy trinity of friends can't turn water into wine, but they can turn religious trauma into captivating content. Come along for a bumpy ride as they interview, curse and laugh their way through the wild and crazy journey of leaving religion.
They may not suck the head off of mud bugs, but they do use math to prove that Jesus and Paul are fake AF!
Meet Matthew Britt and Jaaron Wingo, authors of the book, Christ Before Jesus: Evidence for the Second-Century Origins of Jesus. If you are a fan of nouns, you will love it, but if you hate history, maybe just order Ice Planet Barbarians, instead.
Matthew and Jaaron give us lessons in Stylometry, Chrestians and Mythi...
This week we welcome the multifaceted gem of a human, the lovely Crystal Jae (aka:CriticallyCrystalJae). She has quickly become one of our favorite people on the deconstruction side of Tik Tok, ever since we first saw her in a live stream telling a man to shut the fuck up, in the sweetest voice. We knew at that moment, we would be friends. We had a few audio struggles but you will NOT want to miss finding out what Cryst...

It's part 2!!! We talk with the queen Tara Herbert from Pouty Mouth Podcast about leaving Mormonism, surviving Utah, and finding humor in the absolute weirdness of religious control.

She breaks down her 27-year run through 5 christian demonitations (er... cults?), why Pentecostalism was a hard no (bangs > Jesus), and how one orange, thumb shaped man finally killed her faith.
Now she goes live nightly where her loyal coven loves to watch her dance, troll, de...
On this episode we are joined by the incredibly talented Eman Abdou! We've been big fans of her online content where she unpacks and educates about the harms of Abrahamic religions (particularly Islam, the religion she grew up with) and are so thrilled we got to sit down with her and pick her brain. We learn about the origins of the hijab and how it's rooted in male entitlement and ownership, her deconstruction...
In the beginning...God created...Candi Carpenter! (well, God is fake, but you know what we mean).
Hear how Candi grew up as a Christian Missionary Alliance pastor's kid in a gospel band, their journey as a CUNTry music raising star, and how they evolved into an ex-vangelical, blasphemous singer, songwriting phenom. If you haven't heard their album, "Demonology," or watched the music video for, "Am...
On this episode we are joined by the lovely Liv, who we discovered on Tiktok through her series where she's reading the bible cover to cover and sharing her insight and reactions along the way.

We dive into everything from merman baptisms in a strip club bath to pulling back the metaphorical foreskin of Jericho. We...
In this magical episode, we fight through some cursed or possibly possessed recording software to conjure up some great examples of how Christianity and witchcraft are pretty goddamn similar. And if the recording seems a little glitchy, just blame God, because we did our best (which obviously is NEVER good enough for that narcissist).
We get down to the nitty gritty and ask the burning bush questions like; Why is men’s bl...
On this episode, we sit down with the amazing Mr. Trust aka TrustButVerify on TikTok and YouTube! He opens up about growing up in a deeply religious environment, his struggles through his faith crisis, and his thirteen+ (yes, we lost count) cover-to-cover readings of the Bible.

Shakira law, Republicans crashing Grindr, and the corporation, uh we mean... the church...of Latter Day Saints has way too much fucking money! The three of us come (somewhat) prepared with surprise, random topics and as per usual, hilarity and a lot of cussing ensues! Enjoy! Or don't...it's a free country (for now).

As a s...

Back in our day, crunchy people were liberals that smelled like patchouli and wore birkenstocks. When did republican moms in prairie dresses and maga hats take over?? Weird.
In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the (greased with beef tallow) crunchy-to-alt right pipeline: Autism, Tylenol, MLM cults, bad science, and really bad RFK Jr. impressions.
So join us! Let’s laugh so we don’t cry, under the most brainworm-ey...
If you've ever wanted to know about champagne, satanism, the Stonewall Uprising, chaos theory, LSD, El Nino, true crime and Rosa Parks, then look no further. Josh and Chuck have you covered.
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
