Drunk Ex-Pastors episodes

  • Podcast #379: New Films, Parenting, and Becoming an Ex-Pastor

    We begin this episode with a discussion of the new film The Green Knight (we'll let you guess which one of us has and has not seen it). We tease a voicemail about the highs and lows of 2021, which we will answer in more detail next week. We hear from a caller about the challenges of parenting, from which we springboard into a discussion of whether there's any hope at all for kids these days. Another caller shares his own plans to leave the ministry, and then we share biebers involving boxes and undershirts.

  • Podcast #378: Australia, Cohabitation, and our Religious Upbringing

    We begin this episode of DXP by discussing the new docu-series titled Voir, after which we hear from a listener in Australia who insists that his country's claim-to-fame is that it proves the Right wrong time and again. We weigh in on a theory that the secret to a healthy marriage is non-cohabitation, and then field a few questions from a patron about the effects of our religious upbringing. We then share biebers involving chin straps and tech doing our thinking for us.

    1 hr 23 min
  • Podcast #377: Photos, Vanity, and the Creative Process

    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.

    1 hr 37 min
  • Podcast #376: Dead Internet Theory, Omicron, Crumbley, and Relationships

    We begin this episode of DXP by discussing the (disturbingly possible) "dead internet theory." We turn our attention to the omicron variant, and then hear from a caller about the dangers of replacing traffic cops with cameras. We talk about the Crumbley shooting and the legal exposure of his white trash parents, and then answer another listener's question about how our views of relationships have changed over the years. Biebers involve gristle and tea lights.

    1 hr 39 min
  • Podcast #375: Kylie, Kyle, and the Self-Defense Defense

    We begin this episode with a brief discussion about the new Beatles documentary, Get Back, and then hear a hilarious story from a patron about how our podcast led to a meeting with his work's HR department. After watching a clip of the new Kid Rock video we discuss Bill Maher's contrast of Greta Thunberg and Kylie Jenner. We then turn our attention to the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial and discuss the merits of the "self-defense" defense. Biebers involve toilets and shaving.

    1 hr 52 min
  • Podcast #374: Historical Propaganda and Our Rigged Economy

    In this episode of DXP we discuss whether the film Groundhog Day is in fact a classic, which leads us into a discussion of the black cowboys in the new movie The Harder They Fall and whether we can really trust historians. Speaking of mistrust, we break down some details of the case against Kyle Rittenhouse, and then turn our attention to Christian's hatred of Mexico. We hear from a disillusioned listener who wonders whether there's any hope for the have-nots (we lovingly explain to him that no, there is not). Biebers involve Facebook Marketplace and the entire fabric of our society.

    1 hr 27 min
  • Podcast #373: Bad Parenting, Satanists, and the Greek System

    We begin this episode with some possible insight into why people freak the F out on airplanes, after which we learn some valuable tips on how to be a bad parent by some guy who, statistically speaking, probably beats his wife. We consider the Satanic Temple's recent foray into the culture war, and then discuss the so-called "Greek System" (which is mostly about being a total piece of shit). Oh, and Elon Musk again. Biebers involve abbreviations and Instagram reels.

    1 hr 26 min
  • Podcast #372: Frank Schaeffer

    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, "Fall in Love, Have Children, Stay Put, Save the Planet, Be Happy", 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.

    1 hr 30 min
  • Podcast #371: Outrage Culture, Rape in the Media, and Evangelical Manipulation

    We begin this episode with a voicemail from a caller whose taste in movies is shallow enough to become bored the minute the explosions stop, and we then discuss whether parents should bring their small children on planes or just leave them in the car for the rest of our sake. We discuss all the rape in Game of Thrones, and then we turn our attention to what draws otherwise normal people to evangelicalism. We revisit the Dave Chappelle "controversy," and biebers involve verification codes and getting tricked on Instagram.

    1 hr 28 min
  • Podcast #370: Our Most Significant Years. Also Transphobia.

    This episode of DXP begins with a caller telling us about his newfound love of Screwball. Christian gets mocked for his spoiler-alert fail, and then we are asked a question about grammar. We share which three calendar years have been most significant in our lives, and why, and then spent some time discussing Dave Chappelle's recent special, "The Closer," addressing the claims that he is transphobic. Biebers involve reacting to texts and obliviots in restaurants.
