This week we're back with the amazing Kaysie Markwardt @reikihands77 to discuss the role that religion and the church have played in our lives. We discuss our individual upbringings and the inevitable rebellion against what we were taught to believe. We dive deep into how religion is the bedrock of society and look at different belief systems from a more sociological perspective. And lastly, we discuss the sense of *commodified* community we get through church and spiritual groups. How what is sold as love and belonging is only as unconditional as your willingness to comply with the status quo.

* Listener note. We recorded both parts 1 & 2 of this interview before the leaked Supreme Court documents were released. We will be addressing this devastating turn of events in Ep 13, out in a few weeks.
