What do you do when God commands you to eat bread cooked with your own filth? Plus, Rene Girard is back from the dead as our Heretic of the Week!

#109: Eat Sh*t Bread? (HOTW: Rene Girard)

Heretic Happy Hour is an unapologetically irreverent, crass, and sometimes profound conversation about the intersection of culture and the Christian faith. Hosts Keith Giles and Matthew J. Distefano, alongside a rotating panel of guest hosts that include theologians and therapists, professors and prophets, mystics and misfits, pull no punches and leave no stones unturned. For some serious sacred cow-tipping, there’s nothing better than spending an hour of your time with us.

New shows every Tuesday, with bonus episodes on Fridays and Sundays. Relaunching May 7!
