Ep. 129: Weird Crap in the Bible 08.10.2026 50:15
The Bible is full of miracles, wisdom, redemption…and a frankly alarming amount of poop. This week, we’re digging into the stories Sunday school conveniently skipped: a sword swallowed by a man’s belly, a plague of possibly divine hemorrhoids, golden replicas of those hemorrhoids, and a prophet negotiating with God over exactly whose poop he has to cook with. If your version of Christianity requir...
Ep. 128: Not My Church 01.10.2026 53:56
“Not my church!” Okay, babes. Let’s talk about your church. This week, we’re looking at the seemingly respectable theology of male leadership and female submission—and what happens when someone follows that hierarchy all the way to its ugliest conclusions. We’re talking control, abuse, “biblical manhood,” good Christian men™, and the very convenient definition of equality where one person somehow...
Ep. 127: We Believed the Veggies 24.09.2026 39:48
They taught us Jesus is love, people will know us by our fruit, and we should hide God’s word in our hearts. So we did. And now apparently we’re being difficult because we keep noticing when the fruit is rotten. This week, we’re talking VeggieTales, Awana jewels, performative prayer, deconstruction, and all the childhood faith lessons that held up suspiciously well once we started asking questions...
Ep. 126: The Synapses Are Synapping 17.09.2026 54:46
The synapses are synapping, the theology is theologizing, and somehow Jesus has ended up at a sloppy disco with 180 gallons of wine. In part two of our discussion of Rev. Lizzie McManus-Dale’s God Didn’t Make Us to Hate Us , we’re talking Jubilee, joy, breastfeeding the body of Christ, and why apparently you’re allowed to kick God in the shins. We also ask what happens when you stop treating the B...
Ep. 125: Unclench, You Little Cuss 10.09.2026 50:36
Apparently, God doesn’t hate you. Wild, we know. This week we’re talking about God Didn’t Make Us to Hate Us , why Joseph may have been a fabulous little turd, and whether God can take a joke. We also have some questions about why Christians got so comfortable making everyone feel terrible about themselves. Spoiler: we don’t think that was the point. Unclench, you little cuss.
Ep. 124: The Dolly Mama 03.09.2026 52:08
She had big hair, bigger boobs, and absolutely no intention of making herself smaller for anybody. Dolly Parton spent a lifetime being underestimated — and used it to build an empire, give away millions of books, create jobs, fund education, love people the church sometimes forgot to love, and leave the world considerably better than she found it. This week, we’re talking about the woman, the rhin...
Ep. 123: What the Hell is Hell? 27.08.2026 51:00
Plot twist: the fiery torture dungeon we all learned about in Sunday school is… not exactly in the Bible. This week, we’re unpacking what Scripture actually says about hell, how Dante and Augustine got mixed up in the group project, and why Christians are so wildly confident about something none of us has personally visited (Except Hell, Michigan. And White Castle.). Come for the eternal-damnation...
Ep. 122: Dungeons & Dragons & God Yahtzee 20.08.2026 54:23
Apparently God used to talk through dreams, visions, mysterious objects, and the occasional round of holy dice — but somewhere along the way, Christians decided that was getting a little weird. Rude, considering the source material. This week, we’ve got dragons on leashes, women curb-stomping Satan, levitating corpses, and God Yahtzee . Modern Christianity could never.
Ep. 121: She's a Witch I Tell You 13.08.2026 51:55
There’s a witch in the Bible. Well… technically, she’s a medium. But she summons a dead prophet, he actually shows up, and somehow that’s not even the strangest part of the story. This week, we’re talking about the Witch of Endor, the king who broke his own rules to find her, and what this very weird little Bible story might actually be trying to tell us. 👀 Happy Summerween. 🎃
Ep. 120: Jehosheba's New Groove 06.08.2026 52:16
This week, we answer the question nobody asked: what happens when a bee stings Bri on the butt? Once we've recovered from that trauma, we're diving into the story of Jehosheba—a woman with exactly three verses to her name who somehow saves the future of Israel, outsmarts the Bible's version of Yzma, and gets almost none of the credit. It's palace intrigue, murder plots, hidden heirs, and enough Di...
Ep. 119: Andrew Tate and His Pants From Chico's 30.07.2026 51:09
Andrew Tate got arrested. Again. So naturally, we're talking about his pants from Chico's. But underneath the jokes is a much bigger question: why are Christians so quick to embrace powerful men who suddenly "find Jesus" while their actions tell a very different story? We dig into the Tate brothers, the abuser-to-Christian pipeline, fake repentance, real repentance, and why Jesus told us to look f...
Ep. 118: Jesus Says, "Yay Fraud" 23.07.2026 54:37
Imagine asking Jesus a simple question and getting a story about yeast instead. That's basically what happened all throughout the Gospels. This week we're diving into the parables, why Jesus loved them so much, and why the people listening would've been shocked by what He was actually saying. Turns out, there was a lot more going on than random stories about farmers and sheep.
Ep. 117: I Am a C 16.07.2026 45:24
Turns out Jesus had surprisingly little to say about church attendance, political parties, and checking all the right Christian boxes. Weird, right? This week we're asking a simple question: what actually makes someone a Christian? (Spoiler: it's less about looking like a Christian and more about looking like Jesus.)
Ep. 116: How To Piss Off Jesus 09.07.2026 50:41
How do you piss off Jesus? Hint: It's not tattoos, deconstruction, or being progressive. It's hypocrisy. Exploiting people. Worshiping power. And using religion to keep others out. Let's talk about the people Jesus actually called out—and why that should make today's church just a little uncomfortable.
Ep. 115: Holy Crap, Judith 02.07.2026 50:40
Christians: "The Bible doesn't have women leading." The Bible: "Here's Judith, who tells the church leaders they're wrong, sneaks into an enemy camp, saves an entire nation, and then just... goes home." Also Protestants: "...let's not print that one anymore." Yeah. We should probably talk about that.
Ep. 114: The Bible Is a Sexy Book 25.06.2026 52:17
What if purity culture built its biggest rules on verses that don't actually say what we think they do? We're opening the Bible, reading the original languages, and asking whether Jesus was really talking about what we've been told He was. Fair warning: your pastor probably won't love this episode.
Ep. 113: Who Licked the Cupcake? 18.06.2026 53:17
At some point, an entire generation of Christian kids was handed a purity ring, compared to a dessert, and told this was a healthy way to think about sex. This week we're unpacking purity culture, the shame it created, and the baggage so many of us are still sorting through years later. We'll laugh a little, cringe a lot, and ask some very overdue questions. Seriously, who approved any of this?
Ep. 112: Fine. Let's Talk About Smut. 11.06.2026 48:29
Nobody warned us that leaving purity culture would eventually lead to this conversation. This week we're talking spicy books, female desire, purity culture, and the surprising ways shame follows women long after they've grown up. Plus: Song of Solomon, Bridgerton, and the question nobody wanted us asking—is female desire actually sinful?
Ep. 111: Butter Chicken Faith 04.06.2026 46:59
Christians spent decades fighting Dungeons & Dragons, yoga, and Halloween like they were spiritual warfare. Meanwhile, actual abuse and corruption were sitting in the front pew. This week we're asking an uncomfortable question: what happens when fear becomes the foundation of faith? Grab your crystals, your meditation app, and your butter chicken—we're going there.
Ep. 110: Be Not Anxious (LOL) 28.05.2026 51:02
“Have you tried just… not being anxious?” 🫠 If only. This week we’re getting real about anxiety, faith, church trauma, therapy, and the verses people love to weaponize against struggling Christians. Maybe the church owes a few anxious people an apology.
Ep. 109: God Didn't Say That 21.05.2026 52:41
Somewhere between our weird YouTube habits and Starbucks breakfast trauma, we accidentally launched into a full conversation about why so much modern Christian misogyny looks absolutely nothing like Jesus. 👀 If all it takes is mentioning equality for certain “nice Christian men” to spiral, that feels... telling. If you're tired of the Bible verse cherry pickers, boy oh boy is this one for you.
Ep. 108: And He Loves You Very Much 14.05.2026 50:13
If your version of Christianity came with a side of shame, burnout, and the sneaking suspicion that God is perpetually disappointed in you… hi. 🙃 This week we’re talking about the actual love of God, the Jesus people were drawn to, and why faith was never supposed to feel like a punishment. Also, Bri would like you all to know... flogging is not a fruit of the spirit.
Ep. 107: WTF God? 07.05.2026 52:23
This week on We Are More: apparently the Bible contains bears mauling children, spontaneous holy fire deaths, public executions, and David making terrible decisions yet again. So naturally we asked the question: WTF, God? We’re diving into the stories nobody teaches in Sunday school because they absolutely ruin the “everything in the Bible is cute and inspiring” vibe. If faith has ever left you co...
Ep. 106: Big. Bad. Bible. 30.04.2026 48:30
Not every Bible story fits on a Hobby Lobby wall… and honestly, some of them make you go, are we sure this is in here?? This week, we’re talking about the parts people skip—the uncomfortable, confusing, what-do-we-do-with-this stories. But don’t panic—we’re still bringing Jesus, still bringing joy… just not pretending it’s all easy.
Ep. 105: You Suck Theology 23.04.2026 48:59
Church taught you you’re a “wretch”… but what if that’s not actually what the Bible is saying? 👀 If church ever made you feel like garbage, this one’s gonna hit. We’re dragging “you suck” theology into the light—verse by verse—and asking who actually benefits from keeping you ashamed. Because somehow “love your neighbor as yourself” got twisted into “hate yourself and call it holy.” And honestly....
