  • Love this. Great deconstruction of the lies told by Christian thought leaders in the parenting sphere. Useful for Christians looking to wisely select healthier materials, and deconstructed/deconstructing folks to see what was true and choose their path forward

    Do your research before you listen.. Don’t believe everything you hear.

  • Great show

    Your show reminds me of two great bands; Thin Lizzie and Wishbone Ash. I’m not sure why! Maybe it’s your hard-driving lyrics with a rock-n-roll beat and a true knowledge of the instrument.

  • If you sometimes miss the part of church where a straight, white man tells you what to think and do…

For example, I loved hearing from Katherine North on the latest episode but it was almost impossible to keep listening because of Clint’s constant talking over her.

    If I missed straight, white, cis men acting like they have it all figured out, I’d go ba... more
