This week’s episode is LUSTY! First, we discuss Tennessee’s thirstiest Lieutenant Governor, Randy McNally, who’s taste for young male Instagram models has engulfed him in a very embarrassing scandal. Then we parse through the sordid story of the Silicon Valley Bank failure and fantasize about spanking some naughty bankers for potentially knocking the global banking system off of it’s axis. Lastly, we take a long, hard look at the super manly, not at all gay bromance between David and Jonathan. Now’s a good time to check your smoke alarms, because this story gets spicy… and bloody (I mean, it I ..read more

Our guest this week is guitarist Chris Mojan of Fireworks! Chris grew up in a Macedonian Orthodox community in Detroit, but family and friends eventually brought him into contact with Evangelicalism. The awkward interactions that followed left him with lasting impressions about faith, community, sincerity, and ritual, and shaped his views of the Christian community for years to come. We had a great time talking to Chris; so much so that we decided to break this episode up into two parts! You can catch part 2 of our conversation later this week.

Come along with us as we peel back the warm, sticky, pungent layers of this odd story sandwiched between chapters about Joseph. It’s going to be fun!

Andy Grew up in the Florida panhandle, and spent his early years immersed in an Evangelical movement known as the Brownsville Revival. He cut his teeth as a musician in the church praise band.
