The Philosophies of Men, Mingled with Humor

Month: December 2014

Ep 144 – Bengt Out of Mormonism

Comedian Bengt Washburn joins Randy, Bob, and Glenn to talk about comedy and mormonism and stuff.

If you like what you hear from Bengt, consider purchasing one of his albums from his website — he does this for a living, you know.

Ep 143 – Zelph on the Shelph

Tired of manipulating your children’s behavior with a creepy little nicknack just one month every year?  Well… does Matt have something for you — and just in time for Christmas!

Ep 142 – The Christmas Jesus and stuff

John Hamer stops by again to talk about the Historical Jesus with Glenn, Allison, and Bob.

Of course we talk about other stuff, too, like belief, and Bob’s endless fascination with Hamer’s “you-say-you’re-a-Christian-Pastor-but-you-don’t-sound-like-a-Christian-Pastor what can I do with this lamb in lamb’s clothing” thing.

And oh yeah, we talk about Christmas a little bit, too, and ask the question, “do you really need to throw the baby Jesus out with all of the mythological bathwater?”

(Answer: No.  No, you don’t.)

Ep 141 – Satan Files for Bankruptcy

What would happen to the plan of salvation if the Devil just decided to up and quit?  Jake doesn’t think that anyone in the super VIP Heavenly family would be all too happy about that.  Don’t ask us how we got a hold of this audio, just pray about it and know — it’s the real freaking deal.

Ep 140 – Faith and Doubt

Glenn shares one of the last talks he gave in Sacrament meeting.  And then rips it to shreds, self-smackdown-styles.

For those of you who like a transcript, you can find at least a copy of the talk here, where it was posted on the Mormon Matters blog in June, 2010:

Ep 139 – Infants on Mormon Stories – Pt 2

Part two of John Dehlin’s interogation of the Infants panelists (at least until the tables are turned and we start interrogating him).

Ep 138 – Infants on Mormon Stories – Pt 1

In this two-part series John Dehlin joins us for a discussion about… us.  He also says a really bad word, or three.

Ep 137 – The Life and Times of Stephen Erastus Knudsen III

Glenn shares a satirical essay from his past, and maybe, possibly, kinda sorta teases an upcoming episode (for those who truly endure to the end).

Ep 136 – The Problem Makers

Randy, Alison, Glenn, and John Hamer join Mike Bohn to discuss his Listener Essay – The Problem Makers.

Ep 135 – Why Kate Kelly was Ex’d and John Dehlin hasn’t been (yet) Smackdown

Glenn, Bob, Matt, and Scott speculate on the speculating speculators.  Yesterday (Dec 2, 2014) John Dehlin publicly speculated why Kate Kelly was excommunicated and why he has not been… yet.  A little later, Kate responded with some speculation of her own.  It made us think.  We found it interesting.  We decided to talk about it.  Smackdown-style.
