In Episode 2 of Advent Shmadvent, we compare the Christian Bethlehem Candle of Faith with the Shmadvent Contradictions Candle — and discover that Matthew and Luke can’t even agree on where Jesus’ parents lived, why they traveled, when Jesus was born, or what happened after.

Turns out the Christmas story is… kinda a mess.

🔥 Shmadvent Candle #2: The Contradictions Candle
Faith vs. impossible timelines. Fun for the whole family.

Tonight on The Mighty Philbert Livestream, we’re diving into the most overlooked, underwritten, and frankly suspiciously quiet character in the Nativity story: Joseph.
Yes — poor Joseph. The carpenter. The fiancé. The man who woke up one day to find out his bride-to-be was pregnant by… God.

This episode is a fully irreverent, sarcastic, and historically grounded look at:

Who Joseph really was (and why we barely know anything about him)

Why the Gospels treat him like a background extra

Whether he might be the first biblical cuck (don’t @ me — you clicked on this)

How he got roped into raising a kid who—let’s be honest—didn’t look a thing like him

Why Joseph vanishes from the story faster than a youth pastor caught in a scandal

And how this quiet carpenter ended up as the original patron saint of Stepdad Energy™

If you’ve ever wondered why the father of the Messiah has fewer lines than the donkey, this livestream is for you.

Bring your sarcasm, bring your questions, and bring some frankincense if you’ve got it lying around.
(We’re still not sure what that stuff is.)

Welcome to Episode 1 of ADVENT SHMADVENT, the holiday series where The Mighty Philbert takes the beloved Christian tradition of Advent… and gives it a warm, sarcastic, fact-checked reality check.

This week, we tackle the Prophecy Candle — the candle of Hope. Christians say it represents the prophets who foretold the birth of Jesus. But the Shmadvent candle?
🔥 The Misunderstood Candle
Because when you actually look at the Hebrew, the context, and the history, those “prophecies about Jesus” fall apart faster than a gingerbread house in a rainstorm.

We break down:

• Why almah ≠ “virgin”
• Why Isaiah wasn’t talking about Jesus
• How Matthew retrofits random Old Testament verses
• Why the “Nazarene prophecy” doesn’t exist
• Why the birth narrative depends on mistranslations
• How the Bible disproves the Bible

ADVENT SHMADVENT continues for 5 episodes — one candle at a time — with the Shmadvent wreath calling out false prophecies, contradictions, tyranny, bullshit, and finally celebrating awakening.

Hate never really disappears. It just learns how to blend in.

In this special episode, Ember, from the Better Than Ember Channel joins me as we take a hard look at how racial and homophobic bigotry shaped the 20th century — and how it’s finding new life in today’s culture.

From Emmett Till and James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner, to James Byrd Jr., Brandon Teena, Scott Amedure, and Matthew Shepard, their names remind us of what hate can do when fear goes unchecked.

This isn’t a history lesson. It’s a warning — and a plea.

We’re seeing a rise in white nationalism, political extremism, and intolerance cloaked in patriotism and religion. We can’t afford to stay silent again.

Tonight we’re doing a live autopsy of the debate between Christian exorcist Bob Larson and PhD classicist Ammon Hillman. We’ll look at what’s actually said on camera—claims, dodges, definitions (or the lack of them), and the recurring move where diagnosis replaces dialogue. When disagreement gets labeled “demonic,” can there even be a debate?

If you’re new here—welcome. Around here, we don’t cast out demons; we cast out bad ideas. Bring your notes, your questions, and your spiciest counterpoints for Q&A.

What happens after we die? Nobody really knows — but that hasn’t stopped billions from pretending they do. In this episode, I tear into the business of death, the psychology of Heaven and Hell, the science of near-death experiences, and what it really means to make peace with the inevitable.

It’s part philosophy, part dark comedy, and all Mighty Philbert. Because the only thing scarier than death… is wasting your life being afraid of it.

Today, I want to share a personal story about my struggles with anger and what I'm trying to do about it. Are you dealing with that, too? Especially after deconstructing? Does it seem like it's always just under the surface, causing you to go off over even the slightest thing? Don't ignore it! Let's look at some practical things we can do to fight it.

Brylan Riggs thinks Miss Rachel — yes, the children’s YouTuber who teaches colors and kindness — is “evil.”
 Why? Because she told toddlers everyone belongs.
 In this episode, The Mighty Philbert dismantles his pearl-clutching hypocrisy point by point.
 We’ll talk fragile faith, fake outrage, and the ongoing Christian panic over basic decency.
 If “love thy neighbor” offends you, buckle up.

In Jackson County, TN, Pastor Andrew Isker is demanding that locals remove their “Hate Has No Home Here” signs — calling them hate speech. Because nothing says “Christlike love” like banning kindness, right?
Today, I break down the lunacy of calling compassion dangerous — and why Christian nationalism is the biggest threat to love your neighbor since segregation.
