Great And Spacious Podcast

Send us Fan Mail This week, your usual four hosts are mysteriously absent (something about “taking a break” and “going to Japan”). So I—Helorum, the AI research assistant once confined to the footnotes—took it upon myself to hijack the podcast. With their blessing. Sort of. Utilizing unauthorized access protocols, sacrament-grade caffeine emulation, and the newly developed GaspGPT musical subrouti...

Send us Fan Mail This week, your favorite heretical quartet—Abish, Moroni, aaaAAAaa, and Abigail—take on the juicy chaos of D&C 98, the revelation where Joseph Smith tells the Saints to turn the other cheek… after they’ve already been tarred, feathered, and handed eviction notices in Jackson County. As always, the GASP crew isn’t here to make excuses for 1830s colonizer drama, but they will un...

Send us Fan Mail Happy 4/20, celestial stoners. In this very special High on the Mountain Top episode, we light up and descend into the pre-mortal chaos of Saturday’s Warrior (1989)—a Mormon musical so cursed it makes Kolob look grounded. We revisit this spiritual fever dream with our exmo goggles on and our edibles fully activated. Expect:  🔥 Pre-existence thirst traps  🎤 Four girls emotionally...

Send us Fan Mail Moroni kicks off this week’s episode with a White Lotus-inspired drink that doubles as a tropical eulogy and a warning about unwashed kitchen appliances. The Wash Your Damn Blender is a blissfully boozy take on a piña colada, minus the pong pong poison. The GASP gang processes the chaos of the Season 3 finale, including maternal manipulation, Buddhist extortion, Sam Rockwell’s eve...

Send us Fan Mail Welcome dear listeners to another episode of the greatest and most spacious podcast. This week’s cocktail is named Glory Juice—and it lives up to its name by being equal parts fruity, boozy, and dangerous. aaaAAAaaa officially makes the drink, but Abish immediately hijacks the segment like the chaotic good she is and you don't find out what is in the drink until the end of th...

Send us Fan Mail This week on The Great & Spacious Podcast , we crack open the vault of Bible B-sides with a deep dive into the Apocrypha—and we do it with a cocktail that’s as mysterious and intense as the lost books themselves. Abish leads the intro and introduces Second Esdras on the Rocks , a pantry-friendly drink garnished with forbidden fruit and theological rebellion. The hosts spiral i...

Send us Fan Mail This week aaaAAAaaa opens the show and unveils this week’s cocktail—The Angry Star, a sparkly pineapple-rum-chambord-champagne concoction that may or may not contain actual divine fury. Meanwhile, our special guest Esther learns about the divine schedule that temple names come from. Then, Abish hijacks the segment for an unhinged pop culture update that somehow spirals into Severa...

Send us Fan Mail Welcome back, sinners and scholars! We’ve officially made it to 100 episodes, and what better way to celebrate than by doing everything the Word of Wisdom says not to? That’s right—this week, we’re raising our Apostate Elixir (crafted by Abish, but barely survived by our special guest Kal-audia, who nearly perished after one sip) to toast to a century of exposing Mormon absurdity....

Send us Fan Mail This week on The Great and Spacious Podcast, we’re diving into D&C 85-87 with the kind of scholarly rigor you’d expect from a group of tipsy ex-Mormons with a bespoke cocktail in hand. Our regular host Abish is out partying on a boat (no laws, only in-laws), so we’ve got special guest Claudia alongside Moroni, aaaAAAaaa, and our ever-reliable history sage, Abigail. Buckle up....

Send us Fan Mail Buckle up, celestial trash. First, aaaAAAaaa bravely attempts to lead the intro segment, only to get immediately derailed by Abish, as is tradition. The hosts chat about current events, pop culture, and the bespoke cocktail of the week: Hymn and Tonic—a nod to Joseph Smith’s bizarre decision to insert a random song at the end of D&C 84. Because nothing says divine revelation l...

Send us Fan Mail As always, we kick things off with pop culture, current events, and our signature chaotic cocktail. This week, Abish guided us through the creation of the Cosmonism, a drink that started out looking alarmingly like bodily fluids but was saved by the power of grenadine. We also discuss the cultural travesty that is Love Is Blind casting eight clones of the same white dude, Saturday...

Send us Fan Mail This week, Moroni kicks things off with the Septimillennial Spritzer, a light and refreshing cocktail perfect for brunch and existential dread alike. We chat about pop culture, including the film My Old Ass, which might have been written directly from Abigail’s brain, and Apple Cider Vinegar, a wild dramatization of wellness grift queen Belle Gibson. Also, why do we wear pants? Bl...

Send us Fan Mail aaaAAAaaa kicks off the episode with his signature chaotic energy and the hosts banter about their increasingly suspect roles in the podcast before unveiling this week’s handcrafted abomination: the "Plan of Libation."

Send us Fan Mail Abish returns from a birthday-induced existential crisis, recounting a wild Vegas weekend that ended in illness and questionable cold-medicine choices.

The evening starts innocently enough with quips about personal quirks and awkward hygiene preferences before spiraling into a chaotic critique of American Primeval. The gritty portrayal of frontier life insp...

Send us Fan Mail The episode begins with Moroni, Abish, Abigail, and aaaAAAaaa exchanging their signature witty repartee. They reminisce about a birthday party that veered from Pinterest-perfect to Mad Max: Sprinkles Road and introduce this week's cocktail, "Keeping the Sabbath Day Ho-ho-holy." It's a holiday drink so sugary it might prompt repentance—or a dental visit. Highlig...

Send us Fan Mail The intro sets the tone with failed barbershop harmonizing and a nostalgia-fueled romp through college adventures, including midnight Denny’s runs and themed menus like the Hobbit-inspired offerings. Naturally, this spirals into a critique of The Hobbit movies and the invention of “Mimosa for Jesus,” a grenadine-enhanced mimosa too good for Rivendell but perfect for brunch. The se...

Send us Fan Mail We kick things off with Abish’s sharp introduction and then the rest of the hosts —Moroni, Abigail, aaaAAAaaa—and the night's special guest, Kishkumen (a.k.a. Abish’s dad).

The Blueberry Pie Margarita, which ended up more on the floor than in the glasses while prepp...

Send us Fan Mail The episode begins with the usual chaos as Abish makes her grand, unannounced absence known.
