“I am an almost 62-year-old gal. Late last spring 2020 I was in a very desperate state of mind. An ex Mormon gal on Instagram encouraged me to listen to one of your podcasts. It was about what to do when you feel suicidal. It was tough to listen to, I never had a plan in place. Since then I have...”Read full review »

“Who knew healing from religious scarring could be so fun? I’m Catholic and this podcast has helped me sort through and heal from emotional trauma of being Catholic and gay. Additionally the way Mary has not only helped Shelly through her journey but also how Mary navigates her own relationship...”Read full review »

“If you like listening to lies, blasphemy and bias, vindictive false accusations about Christ’s church then this podcast is for you. As someone who knows one of the two ladies I can only say that her delusions of grandeur have spread to those who are just as lost as her. I wouldn’t recommend this...”Read full review »

“In my opinion just because you have some problem or past experiences that have turned you away does not mean you should bash on other people’s way of life and what they believe. I may be young but I at least know you should be respectful.”

Then at 21, I moved to the Pacific NW and because I missed the southern hospitality of the south, the LDS...”Read full review »

“10/10 fellow ex-Mormon. My parents left before I got baptized but I still have PTSD every December hearing “Away in a Manger”.
Also here is a hilarious story of how I thought Joseph Smith was like Jesus or god and then found out when I saw he’d signed the dollar bills in Utah and I was like 🤯 He...”Read full review »

“Being able to laugh at the craziness of the religion I just left, (and all the hurt it caused), feels so good and is super therapeutic! Even though I am straight, there has been so much here for me as a victim of the same patriarchy. As a podcast connoisseur I can honestly say these two are...”Read full review »

“These two are always entertaining. They create a warm and often funny space on their podcast to talk about hard things like religious trauma, family rejection, and the hard work of personal growth. As a never-Mo, I’ve also learned a LOT about mormonism! Mainly never become a mormon, haha.”

“Questioning religion for any reason? And don’t feel guilty if you do, it’s a normal human reaction to question things in your life.
Questioning your sexuality? It’s ok if you’re not, because it’s not just a podcast about sexuality.
