This is great to binge, I love the hoasts’ interactions, theyre great for each other. Podcast is similar to Myths and Legends podcast, but with commentary about what they just read. Just give the first 20 minutes of episode 1 a listen, and if youre like me at all, this will be enough to hook...Read full review »

I grew up going to a reformed Presbyterian church where everything in the Bible was to be taken literally and considered historically accurate. I was always afraid to question the things that seemed a little wacky or down right messed up. As a former evangelical Christian and now atheist, I find...Read full review »

I’ve been loving this podcast and have been feverishly binging it from the beginning. I do recognize this podcast is like 6 years old and the social context was incredibly different back then however the political commentary they go into once trump took office is why I took away a star. Other...Read full review »

Having grown up and attended PCA Presbyterian churches (in which the bible is an infallible and completely true book written by God using humans as tools) until my midlife crisis/awakening, This podcast is the perfect way to re“read” the bible from an outside perspective without having to...Read full review »

Hilarious, refreshing, and thought provoking. I grew up religious and fully committed to ministry as a young adult. This podcast has been so healing for me. I also think strangers to the Bible would have a great time with this podcast. Also!? They cover the book of Enoch and other apocryphal...Read full review »

Great duo, very funny. It’s especially amusing to me because I have a general idea of the stories.

I'm rating this show 5 out of 5 ancient zombie aliens! Never knew there were zombies, aliens, nor dragons in the Bible! I'm thoroughly enjoying your entertaining take on each book, even when they are snoozers for you. Too bad I started more than a year and a half post finale. Definitely...Read full review »

Had hopes that this might be interesting and entertaining. However after persisting for 30 min couldn’t stand any more of the inane commentary punctuated with ‘like’ every 10 words. My recommendation is give it a miss!

10 out of 10 getting hella rich, getting hella laid. I love these guys, they make my heart happy
Effyeahjosh via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/07/21
I’m kind of glad I’m late to the game on this podcast. That way I can binge it all. I really appreciate this type of conversation on this Bible. It’s raw, real & without pro Christian biases.

OK
Decent show. The smug atheism is a bit annoying but...
JibaroPilipino via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/21
This is an amazingly well researched and well spoken podcast – a great combination of history, academics, archaeology, and amusing commentary. However (there’s always a however), our hosts need to, like, be careful about, like, some slightly annoying verbal like, tics, like. In “Masada“ I counted...Read full review »

A fascinating and informative podcast. I’ve been listening for about 4 years and always go back for more. As an atheist, I try and understand where my Christian (and those who follow other faiths) are coming from when it comes to religion and faith. Keep up the good work! P.S. We all miss you,...Read full review »

“The earth was a bit more of internet and I had the best experience of the internet in my life but it is a good way for you.” Jeremiah or predictive text? You decide. Fantastic podcast. May your episodes be like the grains of sand in the desert or whatever.
The Ums via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/14/21
Listen to Unbelievable and Veritas Forum instead. This podcast has a very one-sided views and caricatures rational, well-meaning Christian. As a Christian, I realize some of that is deserved. But, at least bring in more diverse viewpoints. Bring on a Tim Mackie or the like. There are plenty of...Read full review »

Love it, really insightful. I’ve been reading the Bible at the same time I listen to this and I simply cannot believe the sort of stories I used to read as a kid, adolescent and young adult as authoritative anymore. I hadn’t stopped to realize the weirdness of this book.
Irwing Santos via Apple Podcasts · Mexico · 01/12/21
This is, in my opinion, the best podcast on the internet (which only didn’t get a perfect score because nobody is perfect because perfection, like God, doesn’t exist). I discovered it by random chance (OR MAYBE IT WAS THE HAND OF DESTINY???) when I was looking for my very first podcast to listen...Read full review »
Theoden Humphrey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/20
I listened to every episode, and a couple of them twice. However, what impacted me the most wasn’t the text, (though I did learn a lot about that) it was the conversations about human experiences. In many ways, this is a light hearted podcast, but it tackles some heavy stuff. I didn’t grow up...Read full review »
HodorTheTriumphant via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/03/20
Love this podcast and the hosts style and chemistry. I’m also a lifetime non-believing sort of Jew and struggled through much of the Bible several decades ago... more tedious than Moby Dick. This is a great refresher course and I love the idea that others can do the tedious work for me, give me...Read full review »
Yeeooow via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/23/20
The rating would be higher but I couldn’t think of a bigger number. It’s sad so many Christians rate this 1 star because they were born without a sense of humor. Maybe if they were a little more open minded they might accidentally have some fun once in awhile. Like by listening to this podcast,...Read full review »
Somgoth via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/20
I heard this mentioned on the Apocrypals podcast so I came to give it a listen, but I don’t love it. Poking fun at the bible can be a good time when you bring in historical context or actually have a discussion about it, but this isn’t really doing that. Not the most tone deaf atheist biblecast,...Read full review »
hjsnisheusbzvs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/20
This podcast is hosted by the typical “I know enough to sound like I know what I’m talking about to people who don’t know what I’m talking about.” Find a resource that respects the topic addressed and has real expertise on it, Christian or not.
FriedrichMaler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/16/20
Brings back so much useless bible knowledge I’ve been actively unlearning for years! In a therapeutic comedic way ;)
joyfulaura via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/28/20
I was just introduced to this amazing podcast. Niko and Lauren are funny and their insights are great. I too grew up indoctrinated by the Southern Baptist church. The whole nine yards. Atheist since escaping their influences several years ago. Sunday school needed these frank discussions. Great...Read full review »

I found out about this podcast from a guest spot that Lauren did on the Flash Forward podcast. Lauren and Niko have wonderful chemistry and great senses of humor. I particularly like finding out about books that didn’t make into the Bible. Keep up the good work. -John
John S in Colorado via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/07/20
I just stumbled on this podcast today and I love these two! Perfect amount of blasphemy and theology discussion. I know what I’ll be listening to for the next 478 days of March 2020.
!scam alert! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/20

7 out of 7 Oil Filled Baskets. Listen to a few epsidoes and you'll get the strange ratings people give. Lauren and Niko do a wonderful job taking you through each topic, but they've also done an amazing job making the show entertaining. There are jokes you get because you are a listener,...Read full review »
Lukas The Dead via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/20
I love listening to the episodes where they go through the books of the Bible- especially as I go through the Bible in church . Christians that only listen to their own logic miss objectivity. This podcast really makes you think - very very good!
MJENK via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/20
These two have good chemistry
Comedian Mick Martin via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/16/20
I wanted to say I am not too far into the series but then realized I’m about 19 hours into it and it dawned on my that I’ve spent more time with Lauren and Niko than I have with my girlfriend this month. This is a fantastic listen and I’ve appreciated Sunday School Dropouts as my most in depth...Read full review »
TeacherA-a-ron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/20
This has become my favorite podcast. It is a humorous yet critical review of the bible, including apocrypha and ancillary texts and superstitions. It may be offensive to those who hold the bible as a source of absolute truth, yet will be a useful companion for those who seek to parse the good and...Read full review »
AriostoFera via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/20
I love how the first minute of the first episode they say they are not here to make fun of the Bible...then proceed to make a podcast making fun of the Bible.
iTunes-HR via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/20
Really nice, accessible hang-out show. The hosts are endlessly charming, and the subject matter is fascinating.
popcyan via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/10/19
The Bible is just too long. In the future everything will be podcasted by charming people like Lauren and Nico.

What you would expect from an ex Sunday School teacher... uneducated, biased, out of context, and riddled with ethnocentric opinion. I wish I liked it more, but it’s just kind of ridiculous to listen to.

jeremi paqutte via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/14/19
If you're looking for a discourse on the Bible and a full understanding of it it's not very good but nobody is selling that. I give them 13/13 angry writers who need to stop adding misogynstic content to the bible.Read full review »

Why spend so much time and energy on something you don’t believe? Certainly, there are more productive uses for your time. Beyond that, very dry and boring presentation.
Avery Blows via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/26/19
....if something like Stormfront did a podcast on the holocaust or African tribal history. In short, their bias is obvious.
cheapazz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/19
I love the idea of the show but the constant attempts at humor are awful! The banter is obnoxious & the hosts are just NOT funny though they are always laughing at their terrible jokes. Good idea, terrible execution.

Filling all the holes in my sketchy bible knowledge. Rating 9 out of 9 cursed cat lives
SweetOrbMace via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/19
It’s good overall insightful at times but history is not there best subject. It’s funny to hear them talk about the ridiculous things in the Bible.
jamespina via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/07/19
Both of the hosts are funny and share both their own experience with religion and scholarly info. The show has given me some great laughs and a lot to think about. It’s not for biblical literalists, but it sure is great biblical lit crit.
