Zachrilege Cast #118 -- Talking Me

November 02, 2017 12:00 - 54 minutes - 75.3 MB

Let’s see, I introduce my beers, Founders’ Backwoods Bastard and Oskar Blues’ Death By Coconut, talk the good and bad of the latest Thinking Atheist’s episode on the death of the atheist movement, why I stopped giving money to David Smalley, do a farewell section on the podcasts and people no longer with us, then it’s book review time. I talk about Blood at the Root and White Rage and dare any white nationalist to read it and think they’re still the ones being marginalized.   I thank my pa...

Zachrilege Cast #117 -- The Crails of Real Life Beyond Faith

October 25, 2017 19:21 - 1 hour - 85.2 MB

enica and Patrick started a podcast. They met cute as super Christians but it didn’t stick as Jenica’s dad came out as atheist and messed up their plans, which Ken Ham clearly stole and made into the Ark Park. Oh yeah, Jenica protested that, twice. Hear about their new show, how much you should drink before recording and how to teach their kids to eat their own.   Real Life Beyond Faith links https://www.facebook.com/reallifebeyondfaith/ https://twitter.com/jenicacrail https://twitter.c...

Zachrilege Cast #113 -- Fred Sims of ORly Radio

September 29, 2017 13:05 - 1 hour - 101 MB

Fred’s another ships in the night person who I may have breezed by at ReasonCon and it was a major miss on my part. He talks about the relationship that got him a co-hosting slot on ORly Radio, being a corrections officer and how scoring too highly on a Wonderlic test cost him, talking as a monogamous person with the polys, and his love of 80s horror movies.   Fred links https://www.spreaker.com/user/polyaskerypodcast/ep-5-what-monogamous-people-can-learn-fr https://thepodunkpolymath.co...

September 15, 2017 11:30 - 1 hour - 104 MB

He's been a literary agent, poker pro, real estate mogul and now does a podcast about skepticism without making fun of marginalized people -- how refreshing.

August 23, 2017 12:15 - 1 hour - 103 MB

Dustin Dark of the newish Everyones Wrong Podcast had a recent interview with an alt right activist who went to the Unite the Right protest. Dustin had Hunter rate the races, talk about secession, and the usual exciting right-wing talking points. We also introduce Everyone’s Wrong, which features most of the cast of Wayward Atheists going more political.

Zachrilege Cast #108 -- David Fitzgerald of Jesus Mything in Action

August 16, 2017 12:59 - 1 hour - 103 MB

It's hard to pin prolific author David Fitzgerald to one thing, but since I read the trilogy Jesus Mything in Action we need to go deep on the most important potentially fictional character in history. We talked about how he fell in and out of love with Jesus, the impetus of writing a mythicism book that reads like fiction (Nailed), how atheists led him to go deeper with his recent three-volume Jesus: Mything in Action and how he’s a well-rounded dude in love of stouts and science fiction. ...

Zachrilege Cast #107 -- Wendy Marsman of Women Beyond Belief

August 09, 2017 11:34 - 1 hour - 97.6 MB

Wendy has transferred 40 years of evangelical Christian experience into a new podcast that focuses on women and their experiences as they leave the church. She talks about being a missionary in Brazil, getting out of an abusive relationship and finding her high school sweetheart more than 20 years later. Her family joined her in getting out of religion and her daughters are part of the podcast. It’s an important show.   Women Beyond Belief:   http://womenbeyondbelief.com/ https://twitt...

August 02, 2017 11:01 - 1 hour - 85.5 MB

Thomas Westbrook of Holy Koolaid is on to talk about his missionary family background, will review Gateway to Reason, and can give me a second reason to visit Oklahoma (number one is Prairie beer). How did he build such a rabid youtube following, what was it like to resurrect Christopher Hitchens for a Dennis Prager takedown video and where might he move next?   Holy Koolaid links http://www.holykoolaid.com/   Patreon show links https://noreligionrequired.com/ http://rismccool.com/  ...

Zachrilege Cast #105 -- Secular Saturday Recap, plus Scott Smith

July 26, 2017 11:51 - 44 minutes - 61.5 MB

I was on my way to a nice self-centered Secular Saturday recap when Recovering from Religion’s Scott Smith showed up. I did about 19:35 on myself and the rest catching up with my fellow podcast host. If you’ve thought about volunteering for the Helpline, you can volunteer.   Recovering from Religion links: http://www.recoveringfromreligion.org/#home https://twitter.com/RFRorg https://twitter.com/wscottsmith19 http://www.recoveringfromreligion.org/podcast/   Patreon show links https:...

Zachrilege Cast #104 -- Secular Saturday with Scenic City Skeptics

July 19, 2017 12:32 - 58 minutes - 80.6 MB

I haven’t talked to Brian and Lexi in forever so we met at SCS “studio” to talk about this upcoming weekend’s Secular Saturday. How did this Chattanooga-based secular conference come together and who will be there? What beers will Brian and Lexi sample from my private stash?   First interview with SCS is episode 89   SCS links: https://www.facebook.com/sceniccityskeptic/ https://twitter.com/scspod https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/scenic-city-skeptic/id1191241194   Atheist Allianc...
