  • Pleasant people chatting about a very specific topic

    I like listening to Jennifer and Tim! I came here from their other podcasts. They’re funny and seem like nice people. I have never read these books and was not raised Christian, so it’s all new to me, but I still like to listen as background noise while I travel or work. And I appreciate when Jennifer pulls in some random facts/research to complement the books summaries, or when they talk about their own backgrounds and how they relate to the books.

  • It’s good!👍

    Tim and Jennifer are fantastic. They’re genuine intelligent and funny in a shifting landscape of mirages, confirmation bias and propaganda. It’s the type of quality that attracted me to podcasts years ago.

  • Pleeease keep these coming regularly!

    Because some of us just can’t live without them! Seriously, probably my favorite podcast currently. I start to get the shakes when it’s been more than two weeks between episodes. I swear I’m not trying to look a gift-apocalypse in the mouth but I will continue to pray for biweekly releases!

  • Great chemistry

    Your podcast came up during an episode of Knowledge Fight. I decided to try it out, and I’m hooked.

    Your chemistry with each other is great. I love the insight you both bring from your backgrounds on dissecting these books. I remember seeing them on sale and being intrigued by the front cover, but as soon as I looked at the back cover I knew it wasn’t for me.

    You guys should do this with more right wing written nonsense.
