  • Episode #90 - Gorillas vs. Humans, Piper the Satanist, and Protesting Target
    In this episode of the Happy Rant Podcast Ted Kluck, Ronnie Martin, and Barnabas Piper take on three of the HOTTEST topics of recent days, topics so hot only experts can handle them. Well, experts and anyone with a Twitter handle.  So a gorilla was shot and the internet went . . . ape over it. Why is this a thing? A "youth leader in the home church movement" called John Piper and Russell Moore satanists for their views on minority adoption and tagged Barnabas in the post. His thoughts? Should we be protesting and picketing Target for their decision on who can or can't use which bathrooms?

  • Episode #89 - Perpetual Potty Training, Doggy Daddies, and Hipster Homemade Tracts
    In this episode of the Happy Rant Ted Kluck, Ronnie Martin, and Barnabas Piper bring you a particularly delightful episode for this long weekend. They rant about the following. Why do we celebrate everything our kids do? First grade "graduation", finishing dinner - everything gets a "Good job, buddy!" Dogs are not children. There, it is said. And that means your dog is not your child. What's the deal with tract evangelism? Is it still around? Might it make a comeback with the retro-loving hipster crowd?
