Jane Heyer

you had me at hello, but how do we stop them?

Cheerful Nihilist

The timing on this is excellent. Jacobin Magazine newest article talks about this.

Jonathan Miles

I was hoping you would cover this eventually! Great episode!!!

Shane Azevedo

Any additional information on that zine?

Michael Griffith

Frequent episodes lately, very high quality — terrific work all, happy to be a supporter

Vanessa Walsh

What an incredible smn way of saying "he will come again"(warmbo)

Vanessa Walsh

Also, warmbo paying yall an envelope full of buttons is hilarious.

The Marrow

Where is the zine and how will you pay me?

I used to attend John MacArthur’s church outside L.A. in the early 2000s when I was a teenager, living at the time with a foster parent who is a long-time attendee of his church. Much later in life, I’ve come to learn MacArthur is a horrendous Christian grifter and right-wing shithead whose church needs to lose its tax-exempt status for preaching at the pulpit against Democrats.

Just once, I want Cody to say: "Hey now, .... you're an all star"

Dany Schwarz

I had to take a break from watching when Cody said Jesus pieces because I had to go listen to Chocolate Jesus by Tom Waits. Everyone should go listen to Chocolate Jesus and I desperately want to know if the writer of this episode is a Tom Waits fan or if it's a coincidence!

This episode was fantastic, but as a heads up, there seems to be a white dot artifact right around Cody’s beard that only appears in the sections with Cody in them. Took me like 20 minutes to assess that it wasn’t a dead pixel on my ipad but the video itself.

Ah snot. I guessed 2005.

Steven Smith

Another great episode! On an unrelated note this small fuzzy yellow guy calling himself "Wirmby and definitely not Warmbo" is asking me where to get corned cream. Any ideas?

David

I'd boost my membership level for some corn-stuff.

Nick Gallucci

This is wonderful work. Thank you all so much.

Karen Cox

This is why I subscribe! I used to teach Presbyterian Sunday School and spent A LOT of time explaining that the Clobber Verses in Leviticus and Romans were not even remotely close to what the Right said they were, but this is the first time I’ve learned that Luther translated the Romans one as ‘child molester.’ Thank you again!

Karen Cox

And you are completely correct that another MAGA victory would be deadly to a church already in trouble, because MAGA types spout Christian slogans but mostly don’t attend church.

Alice Lewis

Guinea Worm Hitler callback… we love continuity

Gretchen Hintz

I love you guys. This is the content I really appreciate...my atheist ass here drowning in conservative Bible thumper country. Thank you for the Katamari Damacy reference.

Can't believe Katy went to all the trouble of registering the church of corn with the government. Smh. Doesn't even know that churches don't have to register at all, they can just begin operating as a tax-exempt entity and dare the government to stop them

Naren Hazareesingh

"Like some kind of Indiana Jones villain!" I lolled but would've landed better if it had been "Like some kind of Indiana Jones protagonist!"

Kaden

Love the writing in this episode, great structure and id love if Katy was my cult leader

Matt Helton

Anyone else notice inconsistent audio volume?

Tarren Renn

I know someone who got a tattoo of the Leviticus line against homosexuality, not knowing that Levitisuc also says not to mark your body. So, there is a lot of cherry picking that happens and many people really don't know the Bible. (I am not Christian, but I know more about the Biblethan many Christians do.) I took a class on it in college. The Bible was rewritten so many times and changed for political reasons. The reason that the current version of the Bible that is most common is called the King James Bible. It is because it is the version that King James had rewritten to support him and his policies.

I think us millennials (if we weren't already disillusioned with the church before) witnessed those kids "stand up" for Christianity at Columbine and be murdered and couldn't make that make sense. Those kids got put on a pedestal and it was horrifying. How could that be virtuous? It was a massive part of the ethos then.
