Latter-Day Lesbian

This is a really meaningful episode for us that features our very first guest, Sam Young. You'll hear all about his issues with the Mormon church, and the questions and objections that ultimately led to his excommunication. But Sam's story doesn't end there. His Protect Every Child initiative is changing hearts and lives, and we are excited to be part of it!

Who was Lehi and what was his brass ball doing outside of his tent? Find out on this weeks FUMPOTD! That's a whole lot of fun, and so is roasting this week's troll: President Russell M. Nelson himself! So pull up a seat and enjoy whatever beverage that will make the prophet's garments bunch up in the biggest knot. It's a good one!

No, we're not peddling the Wilson sisters' latest rock ballad. It's this week's FUMPOTD. Check it out! Also, Shelly gets real about the "Exclusion Policy" and unexpected reversal. Get comfy, folks. It's a good one.

Hey, look at that - we made it through 20 episodes! Wowsers! In this one we discuss seeing Book of Mormon (the musical) for the first time - hopefully the first of many times. Funny stuff! We also read a listener letter from a transgender fan, and pose the question, is it easier to come out as gay/lesbian or trans within the Mormon church? Hmm...something to think about. Hope you enjoy it.

In this episode, Shelly reveals a secret family recipe. Maybe don't try this one at home, kids. Also, we read a listener letter to a parent, and Shelly talks about one of her own. And will Mary guess the FUMPOTD or will she just sort of guess it? Either way, it's worth a listen - at least we think so. Enjoy!

Endure to the End, Quietly Obey, Modest is Hottest. All of these were contenders for our Effed Up Mormon Phrase of the Day. Which one made the cut? Listen and find out! In this episode we roast a troll, discuss double earring commentary by douchey elders, and realize that no matter how tough life gets, we could always be a leper, so maybe things aren't so bad after all. Enjoy!

Where the heck is Kolob? We're still not sure, but we definitely talk about it ad nauseam in this episode. Put on your spacesuits and get ready to blast off to wherever God is... Or maybe just have a blast spending 45 minutes with Mary and Shelly. Enjoy!

In 16, Shelly and Mary discuss family connections (or lack thereof), coincidence stories, another ridiculous tale about tithing, Temple Square panhandlers, and our fun new segment: The Effed-Up Mormon Phrase of the Day. Enjoy!

In this episode Shelly reads from the "For the Strength of Youth" manual...the same pamphlet her Bishop cited as "scripture," which he used to justify taking away her temple recommend. Wait a minute -- is this stuff completely fake? We also started a new segment called "The Mormon Phrase of the Day." Aw man, how do you pick just one??? Thanks for listening, hope you enjoy!

Sister missionaries, it's time to step into some trousers (one leg at a time). And Shelly gets all up in her feels about her divorce. Also, we read an amazing listener email about "reparative" or conversion therapy. What???? No thanks, Mormons. We're all good on that front.
