Welcome back T&J fam! This week we have a fun episode that covers a whole range of topics. Josh gives us a peak into his mind with some interesting imagery. Then we debate the most popular gummies, which flavors are best, and how the chew-ability is very important. Marty brings up unlikeable Bible characters and we debate who would be the worst to hang out with. We discuss what characteristics describe these people and whether it was their wiring or their wounding that made them who they were. Anyway, we are getting ready for an epic ice storm in South Carolina, so enjoy the pod and feel free to reach out at the email address below!

Welcome back T&J family! This week we start off with a mushroom coffee review. This mushroom coffee is not like anything else we have tasted, and that might be a good thing. Marty may or may not have been hallucinating by the end of the show. Then, we jump into our first hot topic of 2026: alcohol. Does the Bible endorse consumption or forbid it? Josh and Marty discuss how their upbringings shaped their view of alcohol and people who choose to partake. They discuss how the Bible addresses the topic and some of the common pushbacks from both sides of the argument. And as always, Marty tries to find the "both/and" in the topic. We hope you enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam to the first episode of 2026! We are excited to launch into the new year and hope everyone had a great holiday season. This week we picked up where we left off - the T&J giveaway! Congrats to Josh and Meg! We then dive into a discussion on the declining New Years Eve shows and debate the age of Ryan Seacrest. This somehow leads to a discussion about Josh's shower stretching patterns and his current show fixations. We discuss ways people elevate or lower expectations and how this impacts how we see the outcome. Marty discusses the roll of change in our lives and how it is important to embrace change. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J family! This is a big episode for so many reasons! The 2025 season is coming to an end, it's Christmas, our 200th episode, and we are doing a giveaway. We dive into the show this week with a Christmas Dirty Brew Review. During the review we announce a giveaway we are doing in honor of our 200th episode (details below). Then, Josh discusses the meaning of Christmas and how it isn't always magical for everyone. For many people, Christmas has lost its spark or maybe never had it to begin with. We process this reality and discuss the importance of recreating meaning. Although this isn't possible for everyone, we encourage you to find new meaning when life changes and situations stop being what they once were. Thank's again for a great year and have a great holiday season! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Welcome back T&J fam! This week we have another special guest; Hatcher Geary. Hatcher is a local children's pastor and long time friend of Josh. Hatcher has courageously agreed to come on the show to present his case for an eternal conscious hell. As we get started, we briefly define the three traditional Christian views of hell before letting Hatcher lay out why he believes ECT is the most biblically accurate perspective. We wrestle with some of the core components of hell theology and how our different views are informed by scripture. Along the way we try to find common ground and allow the bible to speak the truth we are seeking. Ultimately, none of us converted to a different view, but we all gain a better understand of each other's views. Feel free to send us your thoughts or questions at the email addresses below. We are also posting video episodes to our YouTube account, and shorts to Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram. Enjoy!
