This is one of the best, most comprehensive series on the truth claims of the LDS church. Would highly recommend!

I do feel liberated!!! Thank you for finally making sense of all my confusion around church things

I’m genuinely confused, this podcast has gotten so many good reviews, but I started listening the first episode and they just literally talk nonsense the first hour at least. Nothing really happens.

I am a huge fan of history, and they provide a lot of historical context for their discussions.

So far the show has been great when it comes to the history of the church. I am writing as a Christian. I do not believe in the book of Mormon or the idea that Joseph Smith was a prophet from God. I do find it ironic that these men speak on the Bible in a way that portrays that it is not factual....Read full review »

They say from the start that they don’t use dubious sources, they don’t cherry pick and they include church verified sources as well as apologetic views. This is the kind of reputable podcast I’m obsessed with.

Thanks for compiling these episodes and teaching many of the untold and hidden facts of LDS history. This information could’ve saved me much guilt, sadness, and confusion in my younger years. Informed consent for the win!

Sorry, not liking these episodes with Gloria. Very hard to listen to. Would rather have Mike lead the discussions and Nemo and John comment. Series awesome but this JC Bennett portion not so good as explained. Falconboomer

Mike constructed these topics in such a great way that helps you understand the progression of how the church was created.

Mike does a trustworthy job of clarifying the problematic history presented in the CES letter. I read the CES letter with my wife and shattered my lifetime faith in the Mormon church overnight. This series helped me rebuild the pieces and fixed some of the problems with the CES letter while also...Read full review »

I wish I had learned all of these little details back at 6am as a teenager. Maybe it would have kept me awake. Thank you for allowing me to make an informed decision about my membership in the church. Some parts were so shocking it felt like a true crime episode. I don't think I could share...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to these for the last year and a half since my deconstruction and I’m amazed at how well these are done. The analytical academic approach is refreshing as John, Mike and Nemo approach church history and current church practices/teachings without ad hominem and straw-men...Read full review »

Every member of the church should listen to these episodes. Regardless of how one chooses to proceed in their faith, knowing the accurate history of the church and not remaining ignorant is important for numerous reasons.
ShineTheLight1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/23
It is great to really hear people who do their due diligence to bring to surface things the church really tries hard to burry. It is worth listening regardless of if you still believe or don’t.

Great research! Well thought out and presented. I like that Mike is not snarky or sarcastic; he just presents provable facts.

Unfortunately I started listening to this podcast before I realized it was full of manipulation & lies.
R Fab 50 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/14/23
Mike sets the bar high with his incredible research and the way he thoroughly dives into every topic. He is extremely knowledgeable and doesn’t miss anything. I can’t even imagine how long it takes just prepping for one episode. One of the best podcasts on Mormonism!

Thank you for all the hard work put into the research and for presenting in a fair and thoughtful manner.

What a breath of fresh air to have all these truth claims and historical tidbits broken down and documented in a way I can TRUST!!
marion5007 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/05/23
I started looking into church history and truth claims, and I felt so overwhelmed with all the information. When I found this series on Mormon Stories I immediately connected with Mike. Mike breaks everything down to manageable topics and he connects it all as they move forward to other episodes....Read full review »

Thank you so much for making this Mike!
BR1DGER via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/20/23
I thought I knew about Mormonism but now I know I had barely scratched the surface! It’s a fascinating listen told in a clear and compassionate way. So glad I found this! Please keep educating us.
ruddleroad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/24/23
A very detailed overview of topics around Mormonism and historical fact, with references to apologetics. I will say, as a non-Mormon, I don’t feel the need to listen to every episode, and I sometimes feel like topics are covered in excruciating detail. However, I recognise that I am not the...Read full review »

If you only ever listen to one thing about Mormonism, this should be it
realShannaMae via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/14/23
Thank you Mike for all the hard work you put into bringing all this information together. Your TikTok’s we’re so helpful during my faith crisis. Mike, Nemo, and John do a great job presenting and discussing each of these important topics. Thanks guys!
Nickname334343 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/23
As a person who was raised in Mormonism, with pioneer ancestors, a large believing family, held many church callings and paid tithing for decades, this podcast had brought to light all the questions I ever had about the foundation of my religion. It has shed light on all I ever wondered, all the...Read full review »

This podcast series is wonderful. Lays out the facts and history simply and w/o a ton of emotion or inflammatory remarks. Church history is always tough, but this helps put it in a simple light that can help us easily decipher right from wrong and fact from fiction.
Rebel Born 88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/23
There are many things in this podcast that demonstrate honest, factual, and helpful fact checking to help believers verify the history of the Church of Jesus Christ. There is also grossly misleading, disgusting disrespect, and historically dismissive arrogance among the critics. This is a very...Read full review »

I recently found this podcast and it’s helping me to understand the truth behind the deception lies I was taught. Help me make sense out of nonsensical stories I was taught as a child. Then talk to others as a missionary. This podcast is helping me reconcile the guilt I feel for having taught...Read full review »

I’ve been curious about the faith that I was raised in but refused to accept it from sources who mocked or belittled the church, or the people who believe in it. When I found Mormon stories it was so refreshing to hear people talk about informed consent and just getting the information out as...Read full review »

This is a lot to digest but I appreciate the discussions and topics being discussed, so much of what I never learned as a convert to the church…
scooter50cc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/16/22
Thoughtful and beautifully presented, thank you!
Tholm99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/22
I love how this podcast puts unbiased factual historic Mormon “puzzle pieces” into my hands and encourages me to put the puzzle together for myself. This gives me confidence and clarity rather than uncertainty and self doubt. Thank you Mike and John for caring enough to present it patiently and...Read full review »
