Episodes

Ep. 91: Oh Mark... Again? 15.01.2026

We're furious, heartbroken, and exhausted watching Christianity line up behind abuse, power, and cruelty. In this week's episode we talk about Mark Driscoll, MAGA theology, and how the church keeps calling harm “God’s will.” This one isn’t gentle—because what’s happening doesn’t deserve gentleness.

Ep. 90: Faith Meets Power 08.01.2026

Paula White wants a “faith office” in the White House—what could possibly go wrong? We’re unpacking how Trump’s spiritual advisor helped rebrand political power as God’s plan, complete with wild claims, fear-based theology, and a very convenient donation pitch. If Christianity starts sounding like a campaign rally, it’s probably not Jesus. Consider this episode a table-flip.

Ep. 89: We Said What We Said 01.01.2026

We’re closing out 2025 exactly how we feel: exhausted, a little unhinged, and fully committed to pajama theology. In this episode, we reflect on our first full calendar year of the pod—our favorite moments, biggest laughs, top episodes, and the stats that made us go, “Wait… you all listened HOW much?” Come hang with us for a cozy year-end recap and a whole lot of sister energy.

Ep. 88: The Women Who Carry Christmas 24.12.2025

Everyone loves Mrs. Claus—quiet, domestic, eternally supportive. In the first half of this episode, we break down how she became the perfect Victorian woman: stuck in the private sphere, doing all the work, and getting none of the credit. Then we get into Catherine Dickens, the real-life Mrs. Claus behind A Christmas Carol , and how Charles Dickens built a legacy while burning her reputation to th...

Ep. 87: Martha Hughes Cannon: The Woman Who Safeguarded Christmas 18.12.2025

She was a doctor. A lawmaker. A suffragist. Oh, and she ran for office against her own husband... and won. This week, Martha Hughes Cannon proves that women have always been the problem patriarchy couldn't solve. And she did it all 24 years before women could vote nationally. If that's not a Christmas miracle, what is?

Ep. 86: St. Lucia: The Woman Who Lit Christmas 11.12.2025

We started this episode laughing about cars made of popsicle sticks and our collective inability to drive in snow… and somehow ended up deep in the catacombs with St. Lucy. Her story isn’t the sanitized candle-crown version we learned as kids—this woman defied an empire, ditched a fiancé who felt entitled to her life, and literally brought light into the darkest places. She fed the hungry, protect...

Ep. 85: Dear Men, You're Not Listening 04.12.2025

Dear Men, every holiday season there’s that one moment—the joke, the shrug, the silence—where we’re reminded how quickly our voices get dismissed. If you want to be an ally, not just a “nice guy,” this is where you stop coasting. The women in your life are carrying more than you think, and we’re done pretending it doesn’t hurt. Listen to this episode, because if you’ve ever wondered how to truly h...

Ep. 84: Feed the People 26.11.2025

Jesus didn’t miracle up bread and fish so modern Christians could fight SNAP benefits. If the Son of God looked at a hungry crowd and said ‘yeah, we’re feeding everybody,’ maybe the bare-minimum Christian response isn’t calling hunger ‘good stewardship.’ If your faith can justify giving millions to church building campaigns but panics at the thought of feeding people, this episode might burn a lit...

Ep. 83: Wicked Little Lies 20.11.2025

Elphaba was never Wicked — she was just the woman Oz couldn’t control. In this takedown of the “green girl gone bad” narrative, we dive into Wicked , Elphaba, Glinda, and why powerful women get labeled villains the second they stop playing nice. We'll call out the politics of popularity, church-adjacent hypocrisy, and the way standing up for marginalized people somehow makes us the problem. Grab y...

Ep. 82: That Time the SBC Lost Beth Moore 13.11.2025

She filled stadiums, sold millions of books, and somehow still managed to tick off the Southern Baptist boys’ club. Beth Moore proved that using your brain and your voice is apparently revolutionary — and the backlash she faced shows exactly why. Here’s what went down — listen in.

Ep. 81: Baby, Baby... The Church Came for Amy 06.11.2025

When Amy Grant’s marriage ended, Christian America acted like she personally broke the Ten Commandments — never mind the fact that she didn’t cheat, and the rumor was completely manufactured. Meanwhile, pastors with actual scandals get standing ovations. So why do men get redemption arcs while women get dragged for things that never even happened? Let’s talk faith, hypocrisy, and why honesty shoul...

Ep. 80: Nightmare on Mansplaining Street 30.10.2025

Welcome to Nightmare on Mansplaining Street, where the haunted house isn’t full of monsters—it’s full of purity culture, misquoted scripture, and the Patriarchy Megaphone yelling “smile more.” We wander through creepy rooms like the Library of Misquoted Scripture and the Junior Church Horror Circle, laughing so we don’t scream. It’s spooky, snarky, and uncomfortably real. Grab a candle and try not...

Ep. 79: Monster She Wrote 23.10.2025

At nineteen, Mary Shelley gave the world Frankenstein —and a warning about what happens when men play God. Two centuries later, we’re still surrounded by the same kind of creators: powerful, unaccountable, and shocked when their monsters bite back. This week, we’re talking feminism, faith, and what Mary Shelley knew long before anyone would listen—the real horror story is patriarchy.

Ep. 78: Not All Men? 16.10.2025

It’s not all men—but it’s enough. Enough that women change how they walk, dress, and move through the world just to feel safe. This episode unpacks what “not all men” really misses, how fear shapes our daily lives, and what real accountability and allyship actually look like.

Ep. 77: Christian Idol: Revenge of the Bible 09.10.2025

In a galaxy not so far away, Christians made the Bible their idol - and forgot the Force behind it. This week on Christian Idol: Revenge of the Bible , we're taking a closer look at how the "Word of God" got treated like God Himself, and what happens when verses take center stage. Because somewhere along the way, people stopped worshipping through the Bible... and started worshipping it instead.

Ep. 76: Christian Idol (pt. 1) 02.10.2025

Forget American Idol —this is Christian Idol, where the finalists are marriage, politics, and a whole lot of misplaced devotion. We're calling them out Randy-style, and spoiler: it’s a no from us. Because nothing says ‘worship’ like shoving Jesus off the stage for a shinier idol.

Ep. 75: Make Dating Worse Again 25.09.2025

We're always up for talking about bad dates, and discovering the world of right-wing dating apps checks every box. There's all the regular stuff... no women to be found, CEOs who take advantage, and plenty of MAGA vibes. Then come the gems: "Never go on a date with a feminist again" and "Conservatives have better sex" (seriously questioning that one). Welcome to the echo chamber. We'd advise swipi...

Ep. 74: Funny How We’re Doomed 18.09.2025

We’re sick, tired, and fresh off Disney, doomscrolling our way through cemeteries, church chaos, TikToks, and billionaires doing good while the rest of us cry into our algorithms. Laughing, ranting, and judging humanity together — this is Funny How We’re Doomed .

Ep. 73: Baby Don't Hurt Me 11.09.2025

Baby don’t hurt me… but let’s talk about love anyway. This week: how Jesus loved, how people want to be loved, and how not to mess it up. Because love isn’t complicated — it’s just often misunderstood. Listen now.

Ep. 72: Oops, I Did Sin Again 04.09.2025

Sin isn’t a rulebook. It isn’t about all the don’ts. At its core, sin is love lost — not loving God, not loving others. And if the church misses that, it’s missing the whole point. Let’s talk about it in this week’s episode. Listen now.

Ep. 71: Dobson Failed Families 28.08.2025

🎉 Episode 71! We’ve laughed, we’ve cried, and now we’re getting real . This week: James Dobson —yes, the “good Christian advice” guy who… wasn’t. 😬 We’re breaking down his problematic takes on women, feminism, parenting, and the LGBTQ+ community and asking: how did this advice shape culture—and why are we still talking about it? If you’ve ever wondered how “faith + advice” can go wrong , or why...

Ep. 70: Doug's 'Good News' Enslaves Women 21.08.2025

This week’s episode starts with polls, Dora the Explorer flashbacks, and Gilmore Girls references (because obviously). But then we buckle up for something way less fun: Doug Wilson. He calls himself a pastor, but his so-called “good news” is Christian nationalism, repealing women’s right to vote, and household “headship” that looks a lot like oppression. We’re calling it what it is: Doug’s ‘Good N...

Ep. 69: Shiny Happy Cult Survivors 14.08.2025

This week, we’re diving into Season 2 of Shiny Happy People . It takes us inside Teen Mania—boot camp–style weekends, fear tactics, and nonstop manipulation disguised as discipleship. We’re talking cult vibes, political power grabs, and how it left a generation of students picking up the pieces while pretending everything was shiny and happy.

Ep. 68: Hate Hate Hate-Double Hate-Loathe Entirely 07.08.2025

This week we’re doing what we do best—scrolling, judging, and calling out the nonsense. From savage memes to shutdown phrases like “That sounds hurtful—was that your intention?” , we’re bringing the sass and the side-eye. We talk sensitive leaders, boundary-setting like a boss, and why you should absolutely make him uncomfortable. Come for the chaos, stay for the mason jar full of hydration, rest,...

Ep. 67: Holy But Rude 31.07.2025

Some faiths hand out tracts. Others hand out casseroles. And some actually hand out kindness. This week, we’re talking about how Protestants love to say “it’s not about works”—then use that as an excuse to be rude, judgmental, and lazy about loving people well. If grace is real (and it is), it should make us nicer. Not meaner.
