Kicking off a brand-new series reacting to several recent documentaries exposing the weirdness, hypocrisy and abuses of Conservative Christianity, we start with GOD FORBID. Come for the pool boy, stay for the epic takedown of White Christian Nationalism. PLUS, our HOTW is Bart Ehrman.

#162: What's Up Doc?: God Forbid (HOTW: Bart Ehrman)

Heretic Happy Hour is an unapologetically irreverent, crass, and sometimes profound conversation about the intersection of culture and the Christian faith. Hosts Keith Giles and Matthew J. Distefano, alongside a rotating panel of guest hosts that include theologians and therapists, professors and prophets, mystics and misfits, pull no punches and leave no stones unturned. For some serious sacred cow-tipping, there’s nothing better than spending an hour of your time with us.

New shows every Tuesday, with bonus episodes on Fridays and Sundays. Relaunching May 7!
