  • Ep. 111 A Week in the Life

    Today is November 3, 2020. This is a big day. But days pass and new days come. As a gentle reminder of that fact, in this episode, I'll look at what the days from Sunday to Sunday looked like for a priest, a pastor, and two double PKs. Its a week in the life of a double PK.

  • Ep. 110 I Wish I had Malaria

    Did you know that the church still sends missionaries into the world. This is true for all kinds of faith traditions, not just Mormons. I know this because I was one of them. Mission work, at least as I experienced it, was not what you might expect-and that's kind of the problem.

  • Ep. 109 Then There Were Two

    I'm not the only double PK in the world, I'm not even the only double PK in my family. My younger sister, Susannah, joins me to talk about her experience growing up in the church and what the church means to her now that she is an adult.

  • Ep. 108 The Next Place
    Clouds, angels, trumpets and pearly gates, all of that could be yours if you pass the hardest test of your life— judgement day. Fail, and it’s demon torment forever. Or maybe, that’s all made up. In this episode, I talk about the constructs of heaven and hell and how the Kingdom of God might be more familiar than you think.

  • Ep. 106 What About the Committee Meetings
    Clergy and church life are a mainstay in storytelling. Many a television show has tried to accurately represent the church, but to what success? On this episode, I discuss how story structure and representation matter even in comedy.

  • Ep. 105 Keep Your Hands Off My Gentle Cycle
    Have you ever noticed a Bible verse printed on a paper cup? Have you ever wondered why it says “In God We Trust” on our money? Well, it turns out that Capitalism and Christianity go hand in hand- that is if you’re buying a certain brand. In Episode 105, I’ll discuss patriotism, capitalism, televangelists, and the religious right.

  • Ep. 104 Just One of Those Days
    Have you read the Bible from cover to cover? No? Me either, but that doesn’t me from exploring ways to interpret the text. In this episode, I talk about biblical literalism and I even do an exegete of Daniel and the Lions’ Den as an argument to defund the police.
