What's the best way to start the brand new season of The Cool Table podcast? Well, in 2021, it's to get two southern, ex-evangelical women to watch and respond to the HBO documentary about an evangelical eating disorder mega church, The Way Down.

Amy and Beth discuss all things southern, churchy and GWEN SHAMBLIN's hair in this first episode of season 2 of The Cool Table podcast. Pull up a chair and tease up your hair. It's gonna get cultish.

The Cool Table podcast is produced and edited by Beth Thorne. Follow Beth on Twitter and Instagram @bethorne.
