Apple Podcasts5AP AP 2022United Statesa month ago - I love the show; forget about the haters!
Seriously great show. Forget about the people that don’t like the opening scripture! They can go somewhere else.
The content is great, the banter is (kinda) great, but overall fantastic show!
Lmk when and where - I wanna take a trip with you guys!

I am erasing my original review that I sent in about a year ago, to say here that the people that don’t like your Bible passages are only thinking of themselves. I am an atheist, and it has never bothered me once that you open with a Bible passage. To me, it’s no different than quoting a poet, historical figure or writer. Keep up the great entertainment. People need to quit making it all about themselves. The world is made up of diverse beliefs interests, and preferences.

I support their personal faith but believe it can guide their life and be a part of it witho... more
