  • Ep. 49: Fangirling With Beth
    2025/03/27

    Our best friend, Beth Allison Barr, came to town, and you know we had to be there. We sat front and center for her talk on biblical womanhood, patriarchy, and why history is way less patriarchal than certain church leaders want it to be. She didn’t hold back, and honestly, we loved every second of it. In this episode, we’re recapping the highlights, sharing our favorite moments, and, of course, talking about "Becoming the Pastor's Wife." Oh, and did we totally fangirl? Maybe. No regrets.

  • Ep. 48: Jesus Saves, Billionaires Don't
    2025/03/20

    The early church wasn’t obsessed with power. But modern American Christianity? I’s practically campaigning. If you think a billionaire is gonna save your soul—or your bank account—you might need to check who’s really benefiting from all that “Christian generosity.” Spoiler alert: it’s not the poor. It’s not the marginalized. And it’s definitely not Jesus. Generosity with conditions isn’t generosity at all, and when churches start looking more like political action committees than communities of faith, we’ve got a problem. This week, we’re diving into week 2 of Steve Bezner’s Your Jesus Is Too American and asking the big question: has the church traded real generosity for influence and control? Let’s talk about what it really means to give—without the fine print.

  • Ep. 47: Your Idol Is Showing
    2025/03/13

    Jesus flipping tables? Iconic. The modern American church flipping its morals for political power? Not so much. This week, we’re reviewing Your Jesus Is Too American and the absolute mess that is evangelical nationalism. Plus, let's talk about how Beth Moore got canceled for… checks notes… standing up for the oppressed, and somehow we’re still pretending this isn’t a massive red flag? If Christianity is supposed to be about love, why does it look more like a political power grab? And if we’re supposed to follow Jesus, maybe we should stop idolizing golden statues of failed politicians. Just a thought. Join us for what may be our most controversial episode yet.

  • Ep. 46: Weight For It
    2025/03/06

    We’re back from our brief hiatus, and this episode? It's a wild ride. We’re diving headfirst into the church’s weird, exhausting obsession with women’s bodies—because apparently, holiness comes with a goal weight. We’ll also be fangirling over our best friend (who has no clue we exist) Beth Allison Barr’s upcoming book, Becoming the Pastor’s Wife, and unpacking how the church has perfected the art of controlling women under the guise of “godly expectations.” And before you start stressing about whether your body is a “temple,” let’s get one thing straight—it’s not about weight, waistlines, or whether you dyed your hair green. It’s about being the kind of person people turn to when they need to find God, not the kind of person handing out diet plans in His name.

  • Ep. 45: A Girl Called Judgment
    2025/02/20

    Dinah's story is one of those Old Testament wild rides—tragic, infuriating, and somehow still relevant. We’re unpacking Genesis 34, where Jacob does the absolute least, Dinah’s brothers take justice into their own hands, and a certain man thinks "kidnap and assault" equals "love at first sight." Oh, and we found possibly the weirdest fictional retelling of this story ever written. If you've never heard of Dinah, you’re not alone—she's new to us too. Buckle up, because this one is morally grey at best.

    Trigger warning for this one: we'll be dealing with themes of assault and violence.

  • Ep. 44: We Love You, Ridiculous Humans
    2025/02/13

    This week’s episode is all about love in its many forms. From the messy journey of self-love to loving your neighbor (even when they’re the worst), to the joys and chaos of romance, we’re diving into what it really means to love and be loved. Expect heartfelt moments, plenty of laughs, and maybe a little tough love—because, let’s be real, some of y’all (and us) need to hear it.

    Tune in, laugh with us, and remember: You are more than enough.

  • Ep. 43: God Will Use You Troublemaker
    2025/02/06

    This week, we’re exploring the unfortunate world of The One Year Book of Devotions for Boys—and by that, we mean skimming, laughing, and asking the real questions like, “Why does this devotional need a two-part walrus saga?” It’s a bit of a wild ride—spazzy, unfocused, and full of tangents (because clearly, we’re thriving). From thrift-book bargains to passive moms and ambitious boys with career options like “pilot” or “pastor,” we’re unpacking the subliminal messages that shaped a generation of church kids. Grab your coffee (or scary murder book), and let’s do this before the breakdowns hit.

  • Ep. 42: The Sunday Scaries
    2025/01/30

    This week we're taking a break from the usual programming to check in—on us, on you, and on what faith looks like when leaders let us down. The Sunday Scaries is more than burnout; it’s about reclaiming spiritual health when walking into a church feels more terrifying than comforting.
