The Mad Ones

This week, I am joined by the hosts of Conspiracypilled. They took a show about conspiracies and turned it into a ministry. Join us as we talk about what that looks like, what their favorite conspiracies are, and their journey.

Mike is back to talk to us about the so-called evils of Easter. We spent some time debunking the claims against Christmas and now we're taking on Easter. Join us for a good time and a thorough erasure of the lies that surround our celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Warren was once a Calvinist. He accepted Calvin's five points (TULIP). But, he walked away from Calvinism. I'd like to find out why. When the majority of online Christianity identifies as reformed in the Calvinist sense, I'd like to hear the other side. I have, in fact, never been a Calvinist nor have I been able to square what I consider a circle. We may do an episode with a Calvinist in the future to flesh out what they think we missed, but for now, let's take a look at theology, the goodness of God, and what it's like to fight James White.

Syran Warner, notable Cult Destroyer, is back again to talk about a new cult that has let us all in on a big secret. The world is ending in two days. Profundity Yours looks like Heaven's Gate made over and is led by a woman who believes her to be the second coming of Christ or "the first emanation of creation." Really, it just seems like Marshall Applewhite made over. Join us as we talk about the world ending, if aliens are coming, and what to look out for in the days ahead if you're crazy enough to believe this.

Jody Plauché was kidnapped by his karate teacher, flown to California, and sexually abused by his captor. Thank God, he was found and made it home. But the abuse didn't begin when he was kidnapped. It began a year before. There was grooming, trust-building, and rape. After Jody got home from California, his captor was led, in handcuffs, past news cameras by police. As his captor was walked past a payphone bank, a man in a hat and sunglasses turned around and shot the abuser, killing him on the spot. Jody's father, Gary Plauché, had taken the law into his own hands and killed his son's abuser. Join us as we talk about the reality of being abused, your father being the hero that killed your abuser, and healing after such trauma.

This week, we are talking to the inimitable Jessica Green from some stupid show called "The Mad Ones." She was once a cringey, angry, online atheist. Now, she's a dedicated Orthodox Christian. Hang around to hear her story and how God changed both her heart and her life.

Naomi's father started a cult. He took the mantle from a recently deceased spiritual leader and claimed it for himself. Then, he claimed that he needed multiple wives. Naomi grew up in this world that most people will never know. We're going to talk about her story, how she got out, her ministry now, and how she kept the faith when most people do not. This should be a good one.

A listener asked me what my demonologist/paranormal researcher buddy Izzy thought about by exorcist buddy Scott Johnson, so I decided to bring them together and force a conversation. These are men whose mission is to take down the enemy and his minions as they find them. Let's find out what they've learned, what they agree and disagree about, and more.

This week, we are joined by an ex-Luciferian. Sparooski spent the better part of three decades consorting with the devil. Then, Jesus saved her. Izzy and I will be talking to her about her story, her experience with the Satan, and spiritual warfare.

No big show this week. Just an update and a question. Check it out. Let me know what you think.

Is Christmas pagan? Is a Christmas tree actually a heathen Yule tree? Was Mithras born on December 25th? Are you partaking in evil by giving gifts to your children and watching the Santa Clause? We're going to explore these claims and more with Michael Jones from InspiringPhilosophy. Join us as we break down the facts and tell you the truth about Christmas.

This week, we are joined again by the very great author and screenwriter, Brian Godawa. The author of the Chronicles of the Nephilim, the Chronicles of the Watchers, and the Chronicles of the Apocalypse, the man has spent hours in study and writing on the overarching meta-narrative of the Bible, which came to a cresendo in the life of Jesus Christ. It's Christmas, so we're talking about the birth of Christ. More specifically, the incarnation and what that meant to the culture at the time. This one is going to be a good one.

This week, I am joined again by my boy Whip and his good friend Pipes to have an informal discussion on Santa's scumbag sidekicks. Be it Belsnickel, Krampus, the Yule lads, or Black Peter, we're gonna talk about it. Join us for a good time and a great start to the Christmas season.

This week, we (Coop is joining me again as guest co-host) are joined by Israel Petty (aka Izzycentric). He is a self-taught demonologist and paranormal researcher. We're going to be talking demons, angels, the dead, and more.

I am so stoked for this episode. We are joined by Brian Godawa, a prolific author known for his speculative historical fiction in the Nephilim Chronicles and a screenwriter known for his work on "To End All Wars" starring Kiefer Sutherland. Coop and Ryan will join me as co-hosts to talk ancient cosmology, story, creation, and more. This isn't one to miss.

This week, we are joined by Dr. Hillel Gray. He is a professor of comparative religion at Miami University, a researcher, a speaker, and an incredibly interesting man. He has spent time with the Westboro Baptist Church and other fringe, radical religious sects in order to understand them. Let's learn something from his experience and expertise.

[Small handful of hard curse words here and there] This week, we are joined by Ben Taylor of Raw Motivations. Ben is a self-aware narcissist on a journey of healing and growth. He's bringing awareness to narcissistic abuse and how it has affected his life and others. He works daily with Narcissistic Abuse Survivors to find healing and freedom from trauma. He also interacts with Narcissists to try to wake them up and help them change. Join us as we examine the life and mind of a narcissist.

[There are a couple of instances of mild adult language.] This week, I'm joined by the extremely great Zachary Cooper. The man has a degree in Christian Apologetics and uses that degree to teach (and correct) people on TikTok and Instagram. The dude is a lot of fun and we're going to talk church history, online apologetics, and righteous indignation.

This week, we are joined by a personal role model of mine, Josh Hiers. When I was in college, he was the premier worship leader. I've met few people on this planet that exude Jesus and his love like Josh does. He was off to be a missionary when he got sick and has been confined to his house since. We're going to catch up and talk about how he's been and how he's dealt with his illness. I can't describe to you how excited I am for this episode.

This week, we are joined by a New Testament Theologist who is currently working on his PhD. He's here to give his case for the ordination of women. What's women's place? According to Nick, right beside the men in the church. This isn't a topic that I have settled on, so I want to hear both sides of the debate.

Well, my good friend Monica Perez is back to make this show worth watching again. We haven't spoken in a minute, so there is plenty of time to catch up, talk about the most recent propaganda, and more.

Kim is back to talk more stoicism, music, her new band, aspiration, and more. It's time to catch up and talk about what's on our minds in a more free environment.

This week, we are joined by our Twitter pal HEX. You may know him as HEXcellerate. He's a musician, a gun-lover, and a good guy to have in your corner. What you may not have known is that he grew up in the Nation of Islam. When I found out, I had to have him on to talk about it. Join us as we discuss this black nationalist religion, how it is to grow up in it, and how some of us are white devils due to a mad scientist with a big head.

This week, we are joined by a man whose claim to fame would have been as the guitarist of a well-loved stoner metal band, but after they recorded their first album and were on their way to prominence, he left. He went to go live in an Orthodox Monastery and lived as a monk for 7 years. We're going to explore this story and more this week and you should join us.

Roe v. Wade was repealed. I didn't expect to see that happen in my lifetime. My mom, for my entire life, has helped women who are seeking abortions choose life and help those who have had abortions find healing. So, let's discuss this ruling and celebrate with her as we find out where we go from here. Also, her son is super handsome.

Syran Warner is on a mission to destroy a cult called "The Body." This cult views children as property, steals children, and destroys the lives of its members and those who get out. A journalist and alternative media producer, Syran is doing anything he can to take this cult down. Let's talk about it.

We've talked about Bible translations in the past. I left a bit disappointed in the lack of precision and general claims made. This week, we are talking to Dr. Mark Ward of Bible Study Magazine. He wrote the book on the KJV and KJV-Onlyism. We're going to talk about the Bible, translations, and what we miss through our own biases.

This week, we are joined by Josh Denny. He's a canceled stand-up comedian, a podcaster, a writer, and a Food Network host. This is a surprisingly topical timing for this episode after the drama Cam got himself into on Twitter. Join us as we talk about his story, Cam's story, and more.

This week, we are joined by David Gornoski of A Neighbor's Choice joins us to talk about human nature, mimetic theory, and the role of the scapegoat in society. Join us as we dig deep and hopefully learn something.

It's the end of the month. There's so much bad news floating around, we thought it would be a good time to talk about some good news. So, we're going to talk about good things, unwind, and shoot the breeze. You should join us.

This week, I'm a little annoyed. I've seen way too many posts where I've seen Christians allude to hurting, killing, or punishing their enemies. Be it other denominations of Christians, their political foes, or others. So, I think it's time to talk about the heart of Christianity, love. Specifically, we're going to talk about how Jesus told us to love our enemies. This is countercultural. This makes no sense to most people. But, it is a mandate from our Lord. So, maybe we should heed it. Cody Cook from Cantus Firmus and John Dangelo the Anti-War War Vet join us to talk about enemy love, what it looked like in the early church, what it can look like in our own lives, and who we should be.

This week, we are joined by Elias Dummer. If you've ever heard the City Harmonic, you've heard this man's voice. He's a musician, an artist, a thinker, a speaker, a believer, and a fantastic content creator. With a vision of unity and beauty in the church, he's a great person to talk to about worship, our culture, and all things Christianity.

This week, we are joined by the very gracious G-Dubya. He's an embalmer, autopsy tech, and a video game collector. We're going to pick his brain about the reality of death, working with dead people, and what it takes to do his job. Join us!

This week, we are joined by Ben Brown. He escaped a Mormon polygamist compound and grew up with several sister-mommies. I found out later that he is actually the nephew of the "Sister Wives." We're going to talk to him about what it's like to have sister-mommies, how he escaped, and what the wide world is like outside of a polygamist cult.

Last week, we asked "what is the gospel?" We walked through the full-view of the gospel from Genesis to the Cross. This week, we take a look at the resurrection of Christ, at a Christian view of anthropology (do souls exist?), and the great Christian hope, the resurrection of all and the marriage of Heaven and Earth with Glenn Peoples of Rethinking Hell and Right Reason. Join us to celebrate Easter (or Pascha) together.

Easter is coming. What does that mean? What is "the Gospel?" How is it good news to hear of a man's death? How could someone come back from death? What does this story mean? Join us as we talk to our buddy Cody about the gospel itself and what the good news really is.

Binkley’s back to set us straight and to talk about what we’ve touched on this month. The propaganda has been at an all-time high with a Hollywood budget. Join us for a slapping’ good time.

It's ladies' night. Cam is out this week, so Britt (a.k.a. @TweetsByBritt) is joining Jessica to talk about the absolute state of women and humanity these days. Between Aquama'am, Rachel Levine as Woman of the year, and the raging culture wars going on, there's a lot to talk about. Join us.

This week, your dearly loved hostess Jessica Green is out and the lovely Monica Perez from the Propaganda Report is filling in for her. She's so used to dissecting the news and getting past the bald-faced lies and we'll delve into what's really happening. Join us for a good time and probably a cocktail or two.

This week, we are joined by the wonderful Cat Cattinson. Once trans, Cat is a student of biology who decided to desist and detransition back to her natural femininity. The transgender activists would have you believe that medical gender transition is a universal good for those with gender dysphoria and that no one ever regrets their decision to transition. Cat disagrees. So, let's talk about that.

This week, we are joined again by our friends Nick and Lizzie. An incredibly fun and insightful couple who happen to also be an interracial couple. To cap off black history month, we'll be chatting about their relationship, their marriage, racism, and their experiences.

This week, we are joined again by Troy Frasier of Revived Studios to learn about the man from whom Valentine's Day gets its name. Renowned saint, martyr, and legendary fighter of the lordship of Caesar, we will get to know St. Valentine and find out why we should know his name.

It's almost Valentine's Day and that means we need to celebrate our love. By "our love," I mean Cam and the very handsome Brad Binkley's. Join us for a good time and a celebration of our first anniversary as the Mad Ones. It'll be fun, I promise.

This week, we are joined by the fabled Stephen Ignoramus. A beloved music teacher, political and social commentator, musician, and well-loved streamer. Join us as we talk about where we are, what we've learned, and how to continue in this clown world.

This week, we are joined by our good friend Whip a.k.a. Whipping Spoon. A thoroughly American man who could easily be the most handsome man that Shelby Lee Adams should photograph, Whip is an almond farmer out of California and a character. Join us as we chat about the farm, how living in maybe the least free state in America has affected him, and what it means to be American.

Who owns the Bible? I don't know if you are aware of this, but the Bible you have next to your bed is most likely copyrighted and you need to get permission to use excepts in your writings or projects. Minister and our friend, Ryan Burgett, comes back on the show to discuss this reality and how we might overcome it.

This week, we are joined by Heather Nielson from Fight the Beast, an organization that helps people who are addicted to sex, pornography, or any other sexual addiction. We're talking the dangers of pornography in your life, in the lives of those who make it, and what it has to do with sex trafficking. Join us as we discuss this often neglected or demonized topic.

I don't know about you, but I am so glad that this stinker of a year is almost over. We've had some great times and some less than great times. But, this week, we are joined by Dent and Brad to celebrate and talk about 2021. The good, the bad, the ugly, and the hopeful. Join us for a good time with good friends.

This week, just a few days before Christmas, we are joined by Q the Abolitionist from Unshackled Liberty to talk about Joseph, the step-father of Jesus Christ. Coming from the line of David and imparting wisdom, love, and carpentry skills to Jesus as he grew, Joseph is a man to look up to who is often forgotten or left on the sidelines. Join us as we discuss Joseph and his importance in the story of Christmas and beyond.

Join us for our Christmas party! We will carouse and chat and maybe have some special guests. If you don’t join us. You get coal in your stocking.
