A podcast about religion for basically anyone. Do Christians really think Jesus rode dinosaurs? What's the best time for my teenager to get really into Buddhism? I like science, can I still believe in God? What's with all the sexism in religion? Who decided what went into the Bible, and why? Yoga, stretching, spirituality, all of the above? Whether you grew up a secular humanist or spent every Sunday planted in a church pew coloring on the attendance cards, we've got you covered.
