Greetings, Congregation! We didnt want the news to get stale on this one, so I assembled the Elders (formerly the Desperados) to talk about the historic event we just witnessed. This is probably the most political show we have ever done, so keep that in mind.

Greetings, congregation! This was a great episode for me. Attentive listeners will remember brandon from such episodes as "Brandon robs a drug dealer" and when we talked about death and Aleister Crowley. Brandon has been traipsing through the world of darkness for the last 3 years, and is blessedly back to us. Brandon just got done doing some time and is adjusting to his new life sober. He lets us in on what has been happening with him and how he is doing now. Rejoice with us!

Greetings, Congregation! This week, the banger episodes continue with none other than Nate Henry from Blurry Creatures! Nate, along with Timothy Alberino, just released their own version of The Book of Enoch, complete with commentary from Tim, illustrations from Nate, and all the citations you could ask for. It's a great intro to the world of Genisis 6. But really, Nate and I talk about how we met, the early days of Sherwood, MySpace, what it's like when your podcast explodes in popularity, and much much more.

Greetings, Congregation! We are on the road to Episode THREE-HUNDRED! Crazy. This week, Dr. Besh returns with a new conversation on some good stuff. We talk about the recent Harvard peer-reviewed paper on "cryptoterrestrials", why Besh believes Terrance Howard may be right, why science can act like a big ole' cult sometimes, staying in the moment, and what does Hinduism say about the End Times?

Greetings, Congregation! This week, the full Desperadoes (Kenon, Andrew and Ben) have a wonderful chat about a lot of things. Jed recently lost a friend, so they talk about the stages of grief, Jed brings a new TIL segment with "Immurement", they listen to a TikTok about internet overload and they discuss the "male fantasy" of protecting your family. Obligatory trigger warning: this episode discusses some dark subjects....but with humor!

Greetings, Congregation! This week i finally get to talk to my special forces buddy, Captain Don! Don is a member of Navy SWCC, the other special forces group besides the SEAL teams. Don is active duty and met Jed one fateful day in rehab. Don has an amazing story of recovery, and even more amazing insights into special forces-- separating fact from fiction. What does Hollywood get right? What do they get absolutely wrong? And then of course...what does an active duty special forces member make of conspiracies? UFOs? All this and more!

Greetings, Congregation! Whoo-boy, what an episode. The Desperados (Ben, Andrew and Kenon) haven't gotten together in awhile, so they were full of the juice. Jed got a little excited and told a true fact that was probably (definitely) a little too graphic for the public audience, so he had to bleep something out for the first time in C&oD history. Otherwise, the boys talked about civil war ghosts, how exactly cannonballs work, LSD overdoses, updates on everybody's faith journeys, and lower-case c catholicism. Its a great episode. If you want the un-edited version, head on over to patreon and become a member of the congregation!
