SWAJ is my favorite podcast and O am a very faithful listener! But tonight was almost unlistenable as you were both slurring your words horribly.

Some of these pieces seem as though they were taken from my growing up.

SWAJ is a podcast that is incredibly vital in explaining things going on in religion and politics. Truly doing the Lord’s work here.

I am a recent follower of the show. Very informative. As to the subject of IVF, the zygote formed in a Petri Dish is not an embryo. An embryo will not form until it finds a host, a woman. Without a uterus, there is no embryo.

This podcast is providing an important public service by giving us insight into a powerful political force.

SWAJ is a national treasure! Dan and Brad are calling out the dangers of conservative White evangelical politics and power. As a GenX, I never thought I would hear religion challenged like this in my whole lifetime. That’s why this podcast is such a thrill for me!!! Thanks for ur insightful...Read full review »

We are living through a terrifying moment in US history where theocratic fascism is knocking at our door. This podcast helps listeners understand how this has come about.

This show is doing important work vital the preservation of American democracy, but the hosts aren't doing themselves any favors. Brad Onishi tends to talk as much or more than the people that he interviews. A good interviewer asks insightful, probing questions and gets out of their...Read full review »

Keep sounding the alarm on White Christian Nationalism and impending fascism. Please!! On today’s episode, you explained why you don’t like to use the term “cult.” I think you must have a strong narcissistic leader that demands to be worshipped and adored to be a cult. It’s not because a religion...Read full review »

9 cells qualify as an embryo… However, the Bible says, after God’s breath, this seems to me ‘after’ a child is born…

Moral compass seems to be lost here, and USA centric narrative mirrors the Christian nationalist one! Was a great fan, but to imply Vietnam war was less bad than the Ukraine war is perverse and insulting. Korean, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan et al wars give the USA no moral superiority, and of...Read full review »

As a Buddhist who has read (what I thought was) a lot about Christian beliefs, I have long been confused by the many seeming contradictions displayed politically conservative Christians. Then came the Trump presidency, COVID, and January 6th... All those contradictions were magnified. Brad and...Read full review »

I like that this podcast isn’t full of “not all Christians” apologia, or smug internet-atheist rants the virtues of reason over superstition or whatever. There’s something here that’s usually missing in this type of content. Brad doesn’t engage with arguments with fundamentalists on their own...Read full review »
OverwhelmedByPatsy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/24
Markthemonk is spot on. Although I’ve listened to only two episodes so far, it’s clear that the folks behind this podcast have the rare ability to make the esoterica of their realm not only approachable but understandable to laypeople like me. And the importance of SWAJ’s content strikes me as at...Read full review »

As someone who sits in the MIDDLE as most Americans do.. this show should be in the comedy section.
PRS6565 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/24
…there’s not enough Brad.
Samuel512 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/24
…who kept saying he would cut to Dan but just kept on talking.
80221 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/24
As an almost life long atheist who ascribes to the view that I lack both an art brain or a faith brain, some kind of innate capacity that can’t be taught, at some level my Catholic upbringing still compels me to listen and learn about the impact of religion in all of our lives. When I first heard...Read full review »

I love this podcast. It may finally get my writing career going! Brad, 5 hours on CRA, a man after my own heart!! Teach, teach, teach!!!
Dayavati Rafter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
This is a podcast with a very specific theme that is extremely important today. The alarm about Christian Nationalism often goes unnoticed by the media in general. They break down the issues like academics and not like some commentators with little to no training in analyzing and critical thinking.
RobSub via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/24
I don’t think many if not most “conservative evangelicals” are as in love with Trump as your podcast implies so you may need to consider finding a new punching bag or gig.
Number Two. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/24
A show that helps so many of us who are trying to understand how so many Christians of varying stripes have willingly sacrificed their credibility and ethics.
Stuwright99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/24
Preaching appeasement of Trump and maga. If it’s a fight they want, they will lose. Democracy will win.
Sheila MaRee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/24
I agree 100%. At Midnight, January 1, 2024, my Family gave a toast to “Democracy, may she live forever”. We resolved to get in shape (physically and mentally) to fight for democracy and NOT be afraid. “The only thing to fear is fear itself.” FDR Thank you for this thoughtful episode. It...Read full review »

I’ve been searching for a political podcast that examines the relationship between politics and White Christianity, this is it. It’s amazing to hear someone voice the thoughts I’ve had for MONTHS. Something needs to change or our country will fall to fascism. Love what y’all do!
SincerelyAngie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/23
Great content. Hosts saying “right?” every other sentence gets grating really quickly.
drbuttons via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/23
I lean more conservative than the hosts but as a Christian I have learned a lot from this podcast. I appreciate the hosts’ deep understanding of Christianity, the challenge to traditional Evangelical beliefs and practices especially in the area of politics. I would love to hear more conversations...Read full review »

I had no idea WHY people supported trump but this information is really providing me a real understanding what we are really up against se move towards the 2024 election. Wonderful truths. Thank you

I so appreciate this content. It gives me hope in these complicated times.
Ydinann via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/24/23
The hosts of this show are doing a serious labor of love for our country. Every topic is well thought out and well researched. They cover the dangers of white christian nationalism and its history. This is an essential podcast. As a queer person, I’m beyond grateful that there are folks like...Read full review »

This podcast presents crucial education about the dangers of Christian Nationalism from two former evangelical clergy members. Excellent analysis and fascinating guests. I am telling people about this podcast and so appreciate your commitment!
Onira-olive via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/23
Really helped me to understand my religious upbringing, love this podcast

Great consistent reporting on Christian Nationalism
raw814 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/20/23
Brad and Dan really break down the code of the Christian Right and shed light on the true nature of their agenda. I always look forward to listening to them
SpottedB via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/20/23
First off I really enjoy the show! I just discovered you guys and I’m glad I did! Second, I appreciate the coverage of the ordinance passed in Murfreesboro TN. As a queer person who currently lives in the Murfreesboro area it’s been really hard to process. Ive only lived here for a year but my...Read full review »

I never miss an episode. Onishi and Miller are both ex-vangelicals and scholars of religion. They help us understand white Christian nationalism and the threats it poses to our human and civil rights, and to democracy itself. As someone from family with deep roots in Pentecostalism, I've...Read full review »

One of the best podcasts to learn about how Christian Nationalism and the impact it’s having on all of us. Great, well researched show.
ILovesMeMusic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/23
One of the most interesting and informative podcasts about the dangers Christian Nationalism poses to American democracy. A must listen for those who are concerned about that movement.
Vote Him OUT! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/23
I love this podcast. These guys are so smart and as an atheist it is interesting to hear what religious experts talking about the happenings of the week in such an interesting way.

Appreciate all the work you do!!!
leesertereeser via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/23
I have been listening to SWAJ for over two years now. The trauma of MAGA was terrible unto itself, but the pandemic completely unraveled an already tenuous connection I had with an old friend with hard right evangelical views. I have always tried to listen to understand others from their points...Read full review »

I love this pod. This last episode made me really wanna connect with my local Catholic workers, rare but wonderful folks. Great info, currently trying to go back and listen to all the episodes, I enjoy the perspective and relate to the content.
KittyNattie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/23
This show helps explain so much of the phenomena that we observe today. Much of what I believed faith to be when I was younger has morphed into an authoritarian movement and quest for worldly power at all costs. This is a good starting point for understanding how we got here and what we can do...Read full review »
