We interview our friend Lissette Martinez from the Nuestra Experiencia Atea Youtube Channel. Lissette is Canadian and Chilean....yes, another Canadian...but she's also from Chile, so it's cool! Lissette shares her personal immigration story and how she became an atheist. Did Mel find a new best friend?!

Stacie is probably one of the nicest guests we've had on this show! Maybe it's because she's from Canada and she gets to enjoy actual freedom and free healthcare (totally overrated!). Stacie shares her personal deconstruction story and how she was able to break the chains of religion by having a curious mind and being courageous enough to seek Truth.

Our newest friend, The Right-Handed Southpaw, shares his personal story of religious indoctrination, growing up as part of a traveling religious singing group, and ultimately losing his faith after being met with deafening silence from god.

We are joined by our newest friend, Joe, who goes by "The Friendly Atheist" on TikTok (not to be confused with Hemant Mehta, the Friendly Atheist!). He wasn't aware of Hemant's nickname, so we'll forgive him! Joe shares his personal deconstruction journey, starting as a kid going to church, becoming a worship leader, and losing his faith while in the Navy. We also talk about foreskins and their biblical significance.

We have the absolute pleasure of chatting with Andrew Pledger...what was he thinking when he agreed to be on this shit show?! Andrew is a cult survivor who uses his personal experiences to help others in their deconstruction journey as a religious recovery coach. Andrew also shows us his amazing photography work and shares how he utilized this medium to express his deconstruction journey and its painful, yet freeing, process.

100 episodes of this shitshow and we're still going...are we masochists?! What better way to celebrate than to have a game night with our awesome friends? Thank you for your continued support!!  

Jordan, The Grey Witch, shares her personal story and how she grew up very skeptical of religious beliefs. Listen to how she found empowerment in witchcraft and why she wants to take down the patriarchy, which is emboldened by religious dogma.

We have a chat with our friend Stephanie (@The_Exvangelical_xennial from TikTok). Stephanie talks about her experiences with the evangelical church, their manipulation tactics, and their highly toxic environments. She also tells us how she gave zero f**ks and why she called herself a "honey badger".

We have a great chat with our newest friend Eric (MarchMxdness on TikTok). Eric is a Satanist and he shares how religion was pushed on him by his peers to the point of affecting his mental health. Also, watch Mel squirm from Eric's punny jokes!
