This week the Depression Daddy talks about depression again and the Deconstruction Daddy talks about deconstruction again. For our 11th episode, we just talk freely about where we are at. It's been nearly 6 months since we started the podcast, and we thought it would be good to ask the question, "How are you, really?" (Thank you We're Not Really Strangers). This conversation goes into a bit of an overview of our process the past year or so and then a little bit into witchy stuff like Tarot. 

For our Fucking News segment, we talk about the worldwide prayer to end atheism and the comedy that ensued as a result, Gabe Gonzalez gives us another petty prayer, and Kenneth gets into more hijinx.

Jake and Daniel talk about the concept of the Dark Night of the Soul, a concept written by St. John of the Cross, and referenced in many places. The Dark Night of the Soul, or the Wall as Peter Scazzero calls it, is this point in one's faith journey where their practices and faith no longer seem to work. The person who is in the dark night feels distant from the Divine as if they are no longer present or moving in their life. So Jake and Daniel discuss how this is where deconstruction starts, if not happens in its entirety.

New segments: Gabe's Petty Prayers (Gabe Gonzalez) and It's the F*cking News! where we talk about Joshua Harris and the ridiculousness of Christianity Today in The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill trying to elevate him as the Deconstruction Daddy. So this gets a little personal.

In what might be one of their more heretical episodes, Jake and Daniel talk about being over-churched, the Evangelical/Christian Stockholm Syndrome™️, speaking in tongues, and a lot of other crazy stuff.

There’s no proper episode this week, so Jake was tasked with rambling on his own and couldn’t last more than 15 minutes.

TW and NSFW: We discuss various topics that may be triggering for individuals surrounding abuse, sex, and other intense situations. This episode is not safe for work. If those conversations are not for you, that is totally understandable. Just remember that you are loved and cared for no matter what. Welcome to the shit show. In this episode, we spend some time with our friend Lauren, who has a podcast called Thy Queendom Come. This spicy episode is full of conversations about sexuality, purity, sex jokes, and what prompted Lauren to start both her podcast and her Only Fans. Growing up in the South, Lauren's experiences and thoughts around sexuality contrasted with her environment. Grab some tequila, some whiskey, or whatever substance you want, and hang out with us. Thy Queendom Come is a podcast that is all about female empowerment and reclaiming sexuality in a way that is healthy and fights cultural norms. Part 2 of this discussion will release on Thy Queendom Come where Lauren roasts Daniel and Jake. Make sure to tune in!

In this episode, we begin to deconstruct the Original Sin doctrine, Satan, Heaven, Hell, and the rapture. All of this has led to a lot of trauma and heartache for people whether or not they are a Christian and/or grew up in the Church. This episode is the start of deconstructing these ideas so that we can experience true freedom, or what Jesus says is life and life to its fullest. It is Part 2 of our sexuality series!

In this special bonus episode, Daniel talks a little bit about his experience with Father's Day. As someone who grew up without his father, this day can often be difficult. Daniel parses out not only his experiences, but also a little bit of how he has been able to find some healing on this journey.

This episode is for anyone who may have grown up without one or both of their parents and needs to feel heard, seen, and known. You are not alone. Days like this can be difficult either with a physically absent parent(s), or an emotionally absent parent(s).

Over the past year, a lot of people have left the church. Many people have been asked to grab coffee with church members because they’re “backsliding.” Might people be leaving because of COVID-19? Is it because those who left just don't have a strong enough faith? Or maybe it's something much deeper? Nah, that couldn't be it! In this episode, we talk about why Millenials and GenZ are leaving the Church, fun times at Hume Lake Christian Camp, The Room of Grace, about why Daniel needs to read Ephesians 4, and about how we may never get a Christian clothing brand to sponsor us.

This week Jake and Daniel deconstruct deconstruction! Talk about meta.

This episode is more explicit than normal because when they get heated, our boys cuss more. But don't worry, people already told them to tame their tongue.
