Biebers involve scales and clothes. … [Read more...]

We begin this episode with a discussion of a couple new films: Ismael and The Green Knight (we’ll let you guess which one of us has and has not seen them).

Another caller shares his own plans to leave the ministry, and then we share biebers involving boxes and undershirts. … [Read more...]

We then share biebers involving chin straps and tech doing our thinking for us. … [Read more...]

We begin this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors discussing the film Nine Days (which apparently causes people to question their entire worldview). We then turn our attention to whether the lack of photographs in old-timey days made people less vain than they are now (and by the way, how in the SHIT does photography work?). We revisit the new Beatles documentary, Get Back, and then share biebers involving snowflakes and car chases. … [Read more...]

In this special episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we chat with well-known author, speaker, and former architect and leader of the Christian Right, Frank Schaeffer. We discuss his recent book, which urges readers to rethink their understanding of Darwin’s principle of “survival of the fittest” (turns out, “fitness” may have more to do with compassion and empathy than strength and domination). A thoroughly delightful conversation with a man whose impact on us is significant, to say the least. … [Read more...]
