  • Ep. 276 – Want a "Biblical" Divorce? Call the Honeypot Hotshots at Covenant Catfishing!
    Jun 26 2026

    This week we have a variety of stories for you! We’ll start off on Reddit with a man asking why a loving God would create him with mental health issues, after which he’s scolded repeatedly by “tough love” Church guys. Next we’ll talk about a man who leaned heavily on AI chatbots to make one of the most important decisions in his life. Then we’re examining a couple of businesses with particularly interesting ways of incorporating Christ into their grift: Nava Realty Group, a custom home builder out of Texas, and Grooveberries Frozen Yogurt in Coeur d’Alene, ID. This one was a lot of fun, and we hope you enjoy it!

  • Ep. 275 – Blue Balls Yield Black Lungs
    Jun 19 2026

    This week we’re checking out some r/christiandating and r/christianmarriage posts about leaving your boyfriend/husband. Then we’re discussing “Dr” David E. Clarke, a Christian psychologist of dubious credentials who has authored 17 books and gives some very concerning relationship and parenting advice. A so-called expert on narcissists (or “narcs” as he insists on calling them), Dr Clarke proports to diagnose your partner’s narcissism and tell you which of his books will fix all of your problems over the course of a 45 minute “advice session” phone call. What an incredible spiritual gift, huh? So lock your narc out of the house and enjoy the show!

  • Ep. 274 – Pastor Ted Shuttlesworth Jr: This Is the Scrotiac Speaking
    Jun 12 2026

    This week we start off with a Reddit post from a incensed accountant who asks whether or not it’s her Christian duty to lose her job over processing an expense from the boss she doesn’t like. Then we’re sifting through the somewhat recent scandals of Ted Shuttlesworth Jr. – the creeper in the code! Teddy comes from a long line of charismatic doomsayers and flimflam men plaguing south Florida, where he and his wife Carolyn pastor Miracle Word Church in West Palm Beach. Ted came under fire earlier this year when he confessed to having “loose and inappropriate conversations with the opposite sex” which “culminated in sexual activity with a woman who is not my wife,” a statement which paints the rosiest picture possible of somewhere around 15 years of sexual harassment, spiritual manipulation, and adultery. Join us as we dive deeper into this sordid story!
