Amanda Moore joins Heath Fall to talk about EMDR, trauma, anxiety, and the growing conversation around faith and mental health. As a licensed Christian counselor, Amanda breaks down what EMDR actually is, why some Christians are skeptical of therapy, and how science-backed counseling can work alongside biblical faith. From panic attacks to past trauma, this episode dives into healing, misconceptions around counseling, and what it looks like to pursue mental health in a way that honors both faith and wisdom.

Andrew Saludez joins me to talk about what authentic faith actually looks like beyond Sunday mornings—from his journey through youth ministry to podcasting, and how real community is built in everyday life. We get into whether modern youth groups reflect the early church, the tension between talking about problems vs actually loving people, and why small groups and relationships matter more than programs. Along the way, we hit on wild youth group stories, serving people in practical ways, navigating Gen Z culture, and even some of the strange and mysterious topics Andrew explores on his podcast. It’s a fun, honest conversation about faith, community, and what it really means to live it out.

Josh Hooper from Ninjas Are Butterflies joins In Bad Company for a conversation about faith, history, and the search for something deeper.

Raised in the Protestant church, Josh eventually found himself drawn toward Eastern Orthodoxy as he wrestled with theological and historical questions. We talk about the influence of the Desert Fathers, how hosting his podcast has refined and challenged his beliefs, and how that journey has shaped him as a husband and father — and yes, we even touch on the mystery of the Nephilim.

AI is officially in the classroom. On this episode of In Bad Company, we’re joined by teacher Andrew Maky to break down how students are using AI, how it’s changing education in real time, and what excites—and worries—us about the future.

In this episode, we sit down with shipwreck researcher and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Ric Mixter, who has dived on over 100 wrecks in the Great Lakes—including the legendary Edmund Fitzgerald. Ric shares what it’s really like to explore a shipwreck tied to tragedy, why the Fitzgerald’s story still resonates nearly 50 years later, and how the Great Lakes compare in danger to the ocean. We also dive into other famous wrecks, the lessons they hold, and the human stories behind them. If you’ve ever been fascinated by the mystery, danger, and history of the Great Lakes, this conversation is not to be missed.
