Drunk Ex-Pastors

In this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we get a much-needed update on Christian's bidet use (!), and then break down his plan for getting Rachel McAdams to fall in love with him. We play  a few voicemails — we hear from a caller asking about tattoos, from another asking about rock bands that stand the test of time, and from another with the balls to suggest that maybe Jason shouldn't pay his employee...

We're on a break this week, but thanks to Chris Hamm, we've got some oldies but goodies to share with you. We'll be back next week with a new episode!

We share some road rage stories, as well as a really good reason for Christian to own an Apple Watch. Biebe...

We begin this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors with an update about Jason's restaurant (and a cautionary tale involving edibles).

We then revisit and try to clarify some things we said last week about the pros and cons of video games....

We begin this episode of DXP with a conversation about what would probably be the coolest job ever.

We then turn our attention to the issue of cultural appropriation and discuss whether it is eve...

We begin this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors by establishing once and for all that Ted Cruz really is a piece of shit. We springboard from the song "Jesus Loves the Little Children" to a discussion of whether it's racist to refer to people as "red, brown, yellow, black, or white," and then freak out that the movie Titanic came out a quarter of a century ago. We delve into prostitution (well, into a d...

We begin this episode by tackling that age-old question of whether "salt" is a legitimate flavor or not (we applied our laser-like reasoning to "vanilla" a few weeks ago as you'll recall). We revisit the topic of polygamy, and then hear from a caller about how to solve Jason's streaming frustrations. Christian claims to solve abortion, and then we answer another caller's question about heartbreak...

One of us had a rough week, which we break down at the top of DXP #343 (and during the discussion we come up with a way to punish appliance companies for charging too much for their shit). A caller wonders aloud what an intimate encounter (ahem) between the two of us might look like, after which we discuss the thorny issue of deepfake videos. We turn our attention to the controversy surround rappe...

Episode #340 of Drunk Ex-Pastors begins with a discussion of Hulu's new documentary series, Hip Hop Uncovered.

We hear from a calle...

We address the gender of a plastic potato, and then Christian forces Jason to watch some TikToks...

We begin this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors with a frustrated voicemail about memes, and then discuss the epic collapse of late-stage capitalism aptly called "Texas."

We hear from more listeners about their experiences within American evang...

After lamenting our worsening eyesight and overall health, we hear a harrowing tale involving vomit and a corpse.

In this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we display a bit of '80s trivia at the top of the show (didn't ALL 6th graders watch Falcon Crest back then?).

We talk about what we've been watching lately, and then discuss...

We begin this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors by hearing about Christian's recent vacation which, true to form, included a trip to the ER and an emergency surgery.
