February 02, 2025 Why Are Mormons and Post Mormons So Bad At Boundaries?
On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Landon and Rebecca are joined by a favorite returning guest, Kendel Christensen as we discuss boundaries and the impact being raised LDS has on our ability to understand and set them.
The LDS focus on obedience and selflessness greatly impacts the ability to understand healthy boundaries and this is something many post Mormons struggle to do.
Kendel brings us many insights and tools to help us understand what healthy boundaries are and how to implement them.
We learned so much from this discussion and we know you will too!

January 24, 2025 Why Does the LDS Church's Missed Temple Application Submittal in Fairview Texas Matter?
On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, we discuss the LDS church's missed application submission of their revised plan for the LDS temple in Fairview, Texas.
According to a non binding agreement arrived at through mediation, the LDS church agreed to submit a new application to the Fairview Texas town council on January 13th, 2025. This never happened.
Now new information is available as the LDS church makes a statement explaining why they didn't submit the application as planned. But what does it really mean? Rebecca and Landon discuss the possible ramifications for Fairview and the LDS temple.

January 21, 2025 Resurrection Through AI: The Complicated Future of Religion and AI
On this fascinating episode of Mormonish Podcast, Landon and Rebecca are joined by Troy Leavitt as we dive into the complex world of artificial intelligence.
Troy takes us through a timeline of what we can expect from AI capabilities in the near future. It's a pretty mind blowing timeline and will be a reality far sooner than most of us can imagine.
One of the most interesting questions surrounding AI is the complicated relationship with religion. So many questions will become very important as advances in AI are made. What is life? What is a soul? What is consciousness? What is the ethical treatment of AI beings? Can you commit "sin" with AI? etc..
This future is just around the corner and Troy gives us a very important glimpse!

January 15, 2025 Book of Mormon Clickbait: It Got You! with Ganesh Cherian
ver wonder why the Book of Mormon seemed so special and personal to you?
On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by Ganesh Cherian to discuss the literary devices within the Book of Mormon that function like "clickbait" to draw the reader even further in. Much of what you loved about the Book of Mormon was actually in the gaps and blanks you filled in with your own mind. And the promises of more to be revealed kept us hooked. "But wait, there's more!"
Ganesh takes us down yet another rabbit hole with his innovative look at clickbait in the Book of Mormon.

January 10, 2025 Behind the Scenes at QuitMormon with Founder Mark Naugle
On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by the founder of QuitMormon, Mark Naugle, for an extremely informative discussion on one of the most important tools in post Mormondom!
QuitMormon is a website that helps facilitate removing your records from the LDS church and effectively ending your membership. The fact that this kind of procedure, including the use of notary, is required to leave a religious organization is problematic in itself. Mark takes us through his background of leaving the church as a teenager and then making it his mission to help others do the same for almost a decade.
Mark shares his vision for QuitMormon that involves even more help and support to the post Mormon community. He also discusses their new fundraising efforts and hopes for the future.
If you've even wondered who was behind QuitMormon and where it came from, you won't want to miss this episode.
Thank you to my friend Cara for suggesting this great idea for a podcast!

January 08, 2025 Ecclesiastical Crackdown On BYU Professors? Why I Left with Former BYU Prof. Jason Bergman
On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by former BYU professor Jason Bergman who appeared in the recent Salt Lake Tribune article discussing the ecclesiastical crackdown on BYU professors.
Professor Bergman saw fist hand the increasingly tight grasp BYU had on it's professors, starting with Elder Holland's "Musket Talk" which Bergman attended, the new "Loyalty Oath" that employees had to sign, and increasingly concerning changes to faculty employment.
Professor Bergman chose to leave his position at BYU after the situation became intolerable for him personally. He knew these new restrictions would not allow him to be the kind of teacher he wanted to be for his students.
He was interviewed by the Salt Lake Tribune to share his perspective on the situation at BYU and Mormonish was so happy to be able to speak with Professor Bergman and learn more details of his personal faith journey and experience at BYU.

January 03, 2025 Reincarnation in Mormon Theology: Joseph Smith and Kabbalah
On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by Master Peace, Ron Yorgason as we explore reincarnation theology in the early Mormon church.
Few people realize that Joseph Smith was studying with a Kabbalah scholar in the months before his death and had become fascinated with the idea of reincarnation. Ron explains this emerging concept of multiple mortalities and plural probations that the prophet only shared with his inner circle.
Had he lived, these Kabbalistic teachings might have ended up as mainstream LDS doctrine. Who knows. We definitely know that the more fringe followers of Mormonism like Chad and Lori Daybell were deeply interested in these obscure Mormon concepts or past lives and reincarnation.
This episode will really open up some fascinating scenarios.
