Dan, Mark, and Doug do a fantastic job of helping take apart, work with , and process issues surrounding loss of faith, how to live a good life, and avoiding woo while...”Read full review »

“I wish this show had existed when I left religion because it would have helped me through a lot of the struggles I faced when leaving religion. This is by far the most useful show for new atheist or non believers, but it is also a great asset to people who have been out of the faith for a long...”Read full review »

“Look, I’m not going to lie. I fell in love with all three of my audio uncles. They gave me hours of entertainment, support, and one of them even made me laugh (maybe that was another show, I can’t be sure).
Here is the punchline. They left me, cold and I’m the dark. I left my religious cult,...”Read full review »

Except, that is most decidedly NOT that. Upon arriving at heretic-ed-ness, what...”Read full review »
