    This is THE PODCAST to listen to. At the time I’m writing this I’m at work (don’t worry I’m not breaking any rules) and 16. I love this podcast. Thank you for doing this!

    Don’t listen to the hate comments. You’re definitely a Christian podcast, and you guys are bearing your souls and histories to the world. That takes boldness.

    May God bless you and prosper your podcast more!

  • People are to sensitive

    Sam, please don’t listen to the other comments about “you guys are too rude and make to many rude jokes”. That’s what makes the podcast relatable to the youth so they can learn more about God. I’m 14 (and homeschooled) and I don’t find any of it too crude or anything like that. People are just being to sensitive about little things that they can’t control. Thank you for doing the podcast. God bless all of you guys!
