Kieryn and Hännah get into Halloween: what it meant to them, why they weren’t allowed to observe it, and the Reformation Day parties they wished they hadn’t attended. Listen to them talk about communion, witchcraft, and their deconversions.

Episode 16: Church and State

Kitchen Table Cult unpacks all the things Kieryn and Eve learned at the kitchen tables of their childhoods in conservative Christian homeschooling families. Every week we take your questions and drill down on various topics about Quiverfull, the Religious Right, and our childhoods in high-demand groups (otherwise known as cults).

We’re not surprised about the rise of Trump, Christian fascism, or evangelical white women voting for someone like Mike Pence, and we want to take you back through the beginning of it all to explain why.
