The Scathing Atheist is the best comedic, atheist positive, LGBT+ positive podcast I have ever heard.
I look forward to hearing them every week.
I have been listening to this podcast religiously every Thursday. These guys are so quick-witted and know how to deliver the absolute worst news in the best ways.
I can’t believe I haven’t reviewed the show yet! I’ve been listening since 2021, maybe a bit longer, and as the world gets more bleak and my media sources narrow, this show stays on the rotation. Always talking about the important topics while bringing some level of humor that is desperately needed. Thank you for your hard work!

Content frequently combines humor with critiques of religious beliefs, societal norms, and government policies, tackling various subjects from the absurdities of religious practices to political controversies surrounding atheism and secularism. The hosts employ irreverent commentary and satire to examine interactions between faith and politics, the implications of religious ideologies in public policy, and the sometimes ludicrous behavior of religious figures, all while maintaining an entertaining and approachable tone. One unique aspect is the consistent blend of comedic elements with a strong advocacy for secularism, offering insights with a lighthearted, yet critical lens on contemporary issues.
