You really have to hear this story to believe it!

On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon share information on an application to build a new mosque in McKinney Texas.The McKinney Islamic Association has outgrown their present place of worship and would like to build a larger building. This application was denied by the McKinney Planning & Zoning Board.

The juxtaposition between the mosque application in McKinney and the LDS temple in Fairview where the McKinney Texas is being built is interesting. Many people in the town of McKinney, including the mayor have shown overwhelming support for the LDS temple being built in the adjacent town.

I'm sure you'll find these two stories really fascinating.

On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by favorite returning guest Radio Free Mormon as we delve into the secret world of apologetics and currently serving LDS missionaries.

Everyone knows that missionaries have questions. Whether it's something posed by a companion, an investigator that brings up an uncomfortable issue with the church, or even a question that the missionary is wrestling with himself, it's going to happen.

And when it does, who does a missionary turn to?

An underground group of LDS apologists has the answers missionaries are looking for and they're even willing to meet with investigators to answer questions.

What do mission presidents and the LDS church's missionary department think of this? We're not sure. The group works hard to stay out of site and off the radar.

We know you'll be as fascinated as we were to uncover all the details.

On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by linguist and creator of the Romulan language in the Star Trek Universe, Trent Pehrson.

Trent uses his expertise in linguistics to dissect the Anthon Transcript and evaluate the truth claim that this documents contains characters transcribed by Joseph Smith directly from the gold plates.

His method for systematically determining if a truth claim is accurate can be used to assess many different areas of Mormonism.

In this episode Trent also turns his attention to a book by Jerry Grover called, "Translation of the “Caractors” Document" to see if it meets his truth claim criteria.

We're sure you'll find this episode as fascinating as we did! And yes, we do discuss Star Trek a bit! ;)

Just in time for Pioneer Day , on this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Landon gives an excellent presentation on the events surrounding the Willie and Martin Handcart Companies' tragic journey west.

This presentation was originally a The Good Book Club episode and we're excited to share this important discussion of these tragic events.For too long, the LDS church's narrative has hidden key details and created an inspiring narrative that doesn't reflect reality.

The discussion centers around the excellent book on this topic, "

Devil's Gate: Brigham Young and the Great Mormon Handcart Tragedy' by David Roberts

On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by Ember Tonge to discuss her hilarious story of having her own mother troll LDS dating sites pretending to be Ember in order to line up dates for her. 

We all agree that parents usually have our best interests at heart, but the high demand high control aspects of Mormon perfectionism add a level to normal interactions that can cause LDS parents to ignore boundaries.

We're sure you will be able to relate to the stories that Ember shares as we take a humorous yet important look at parents and boundaries through the lens of Mormonism.
