They do valuable work

I’ve been n FFRF member for many years. The hosts, Dan and Annie Laurie, the timely topics and the music, including Dan’s masterful musical talents, all combine to entertain while informing. A solid show!

Keeps me up to date on separation of church and state. This show is how I start my week. Thank you, FFRF!

What a relief to hear that sanity and intelligence still exist. I was raised and indoctrinated into a Baptist religion. Forced to go to church. Being told the Bible was reality . That is until I started thinking for myself and reading as many books as I could on the subject of religion. I have...Read full review »

I live in a town in the Bible Belt. On Sunday a local TV station aired a commercial from FFRF. I was shocked to see it but in a good way. Some of us are suffocating here amongst some very devout believers. Dogma still rules around here. Thanks for paying attention to us. Ik commercials aren’t...Read full review »

I resisted listening to this podcast because, although I’m aligned with the values of FFRF, I figured the show would be predictable and somewhat boring. I was wrong. The hosts (along with others who help to make the podcast) do a terrific job of keeping things interesting. I not only listened to...Read full review »

Why is Free Thought Radio—a self proclaimed un-religious platform—in the “Religious” category? It’s more of a news program, covering politics, culture and—yes—religion.

I like the music breaks (contrary to several reviewers) and the speakers are rational and not angry. I am still angry from having been raised fundamentalist.
Chasdumonde via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/18/21
A huge thank you to the Ron Reagan commercial for getting me in touch with FFRF! Love the podcast. So informative!
ColombianGurl66 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/21
It’s a great podcast for atheists, but there is way too much music, like extensive classical musical numbers. Like I end up skipping over half of the podcast due to breaks and musical numbers. Worse yet, I feel like the music is not representative of the genres most enjoyed by the audience....Read full review »

It's a fun podcast about the relgious nonsense going on in the nation and how FFRF is trying to defend against religion encroachment. Could use less of the music but whateverRead full review »

I am 57 years old and it is only in the past six months that I have rejected all the religious garbage I was raised to believe and call myself an atheist. I did a google search and was reminded of the Freedom From Religion organization. And thus discovered this podcast. Leaving God was the first...Read full review »

FFRF podcast is a breath of fresh air giving me important information about current events affecting separation of church and state. I always learn something that is enriching about important historical free-thinkers, artists, and musicians. I am always surprised to hear of people who were rebels...Read full review »

Perfect. Thank you FFRF!

Enjoyed listening & learning from these presentations. Voices are soothing. My ears enjoy these broadcasts! Hope you, yours and your surroundings are safe & Covid free! Be Well!
Fname via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/23/20
-This is a great podcast. It really illuminates the various machinations (big and small) that right wing Christians are up to.
CanuckaMoose via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/22/20
I’m a long time listener but no more. I always liked to check the news of how the foundation was stepping up and creating legal church/state challenges around the country. Perhaps I have evolved. I find my atheism is stronger than ever but I am beginning to hate the leftist political lean...Read full review »
zuluonesix via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/13/20
The freethought perspective given in this podcast always informs me about the aspects of the news dealing with the potential rise of theocracy in the US and around the world. This perspective is lacking often in mainstream media. Keep up the good work!
BenjiFields via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/20
Dan, I like the music, but then I’m a musician.
banker003 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/06/20
I have listened for years; not after this last episode. It’s one bad joke too far. Bye
Cerebral Nonconformist via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/04/20
Dan is great but the music doesn’t help. Increase the news percentage ... take a cue from “Thank god I’m Atheist” and play clips from pastors that underscore how hateful and devisive religions are. Keep up the great work!
Doomedron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/19
I'm not an atheist but I'm becoming more and more frustrated with religion and religious people. We definitely need to keep up that separation of church and state. The more I listen to this podcast, the more I like it. However I find myself skipping the music. I usually do that anyway on...Read full review »
hufflepuffer75 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/19
The FFRF podcast is a welcome oasis from the majority extreme-right Christian rural community where I live. I enjoy the variety of speakers, news and music presented. Keep up the important legislative work as well - separation of church and state is vital to maintaining our founders’ creation...Read full review »
Watershelly922 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/27/19
I am a regular listener and I sometimes feel like the speakers are going too fast. Maybe you have packed too many ideas into an episode and then are rushing to get through all of them or maybe it’s just a little matter of engineering but I found the most recent episode easier to listen to.
kenyatta2009 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/19
Great podcast!
AGR000000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/19
I love FFRF and Annie Laurie and Dan's positive humanist atheism. They stand for far more than just the first amendment. They stand for humanism and ethics in movement atheism which is sadly lacking amongst many of its leaders who lately have been men found sexually assaulting women and...Read full review »

I like the legal updates on state-church separation cases, the music, and many interesting guests.
Dpn121212 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/11/18
I love this podcast. Good information and interviews. I learn about issues not covered by the media, plus books and music that I would not hear about otherwise. I am a member of FFRF and a humanist. Thank FFRF.
moabear57 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/18
Like all the news upfront. I am pressed for time and just want to get the news and what progress you are making. Would love more interviews. Can live with the music. Glad to be a supporter.
Michguy62 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/24/18
Thank you so much for keeping me informed and fighting the good fight. I listen as soon as the podcast becomes available on ITunes. Have you considered doing a show on Jesus Christ Superstar? I find it interesting that this is being redone and shown on Easter as I find the musical to be...Read full review »
MsKayle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/20/18
While not an atheist, I’m a firm believer in the separation of church and state. The degradation of that separation with the new administration and Congress makes the work FFRF does even more important. I really enjoy hearing about what you’re doing for all of us who don’t want religion in our...Read full review »

I was attracted to this podcast because of the title. I am agnostic and can’t prove one way or another. And was hoping for a un biased discussion. However the problem with the episode I listened in on was how they TARGET schools for religious insignia or beliefs. While I’m not a believer one way...Read full review »
Zhas6473 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/07/17
I love hearing about their court cases, but all the music, oy vey... I always attempt to listen but some weeks are way less interesting than others.
Isywysy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/23/17
Thanks, Annie Laurie, Dan and visiting Andrew on the new show. Very informative and fun. Well, mocking religionists is fun anyway I can get it but you guys do it smarter.
ip4unot via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/17
Honestly, I find the show itself a little flat, but it is interesting hearing about the work the FFRF is doing.

Love all the work these guys do. Keep it up!
SeanErskine via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/25/16
A great way to learn what this organization and others are doing to maintain the separation of church and state. Especially enjoy the interviews and updates from the legal team at Freedom From Religion Foundation (which owns this podcast).They have a newspaper that covers the same material but...Read full review »
Cooper4048 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/16
Very boring and could use a format change. There's too much music for a talk show. The music is corny and they only spend a few minutes with interviews, leaving the listener wanting more. Lose the music and become a real talk show!Read full review »
Lickd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/16
This unassuming little podcast has TEETH! Wish I had known about your show when I lived in Madison. Just found it and I love hearing the background on current lawsuits and church/states violations. Keep up the good work!
danielg603 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/16
I'm an atheist and unlike some reviewers I do care whether local governments endorse Christianity. FFRF is on the frontline of defending the secularism that our founders designed America with. We can no longer be called a representative secular democracy when government officials promote...Read full review »
The Godless via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/02/15
I start my Monday mornings with this show and it make a refreshing start to the week. To hear two great leaders in the freethought movement every week gives me hope that it's getting better for those of us who are good without god. Annie Laurie and Dan, thank you and FFRF for all your work.Read full review »

Dedicated Podcast listener. Thanks for all you do!
DrMonocle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/15
i can't think of a better podcast to update those who are interested in court cases involving separation of church and state. but the music and jokes by dan barker make it unlistenable. i really really want to listen, but turn it off after a few seconds of dan.Read full review »
akers444 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/07/15
I listen to several atheist podcasts. I love them all but none make me feel more human than this one.
Ebw16256 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/15
Important and pertinent. Agree with others on some deficiencies in the presentation.
George Bush Library via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/15
I'm a lapsed Catholic who recently started "waking up" to atheism. I consider myself on the fence, almost ready to declare myself an atheist. Your show has helped me understand the basis for this and complements reading I'm doing to develop an understanding of religion as a...Read full review »

Every week seems to bring another important victory for separation of church and state. Dan and Annie Laurie are two of the nicest podcasters out there and they're doing phenomenal work for reason.Read full review »
