Church & Other Drugs

Greetings, Congregation! Today is a fun-filled philosophical journey with your favorite hosts-- Jed, Kenon and Andrew. First, the boys talk about the "she said yes" movement of the early 2000's and then move into the good stuff-- like what the is going on with the sun? We also cover early humans "finding" God, and question whether or not we are truly just being controlled by a network of mycelium. music- Jaws by Sleep Token [email protected] patreon.com/churchandotherdrugs storefrontier.com/churchandotherdrugs Learn more about your ad choices.

Greetings, Congregation! I hope this episode finds you well. This week, I thought it would be fun to have two congregants from our Sunday zoom meeting to come on the show- Kenon Koffkey and Andrew Shipman.

This leads the boys into a discussion on billionaires as an idea, and the love of money.

Greetings, Congregation! This...is quite the episode. I've had my fair share of amazing stories over the years hosting this podcast, and I must say, this story is truly unique among them all. Natalie Caskey comes on the show to tell Jed all about being a medium. Natalie comes from a long line of spiritualists hailing from Salem, Mass., but recent events have shaken her to the core. Can ghosts help someone solve their murders? How exactly does speaking with the dead work? Do mediums speak with Satan? Jesus? Ghandi? Let's find out together. While I may not share the same belief systems, I was proud to allow Natalie to share her story with the Congregation and myself.
