I’m really enjoying the format of your show. It would be too easy (and redundant, for that matter) to talk only about atheism and debunking theism. There’s a limit to what one can talk about in regards to that, and you guys don’t get stuck there. Instead, you are right up there with a well-conceived cable news show, as you look at history, science, and politics/religion/culture – but through a pro-reason and logic lens. Kudos! You make your podcast a cut above many of your fellow atheist competitors. I will be listening regularly.

I really enjoyed your interview with Jerry DeWitt. He was able to put some things into perspective for me that I didn’t realize I was having trouble with. Thanks for having him on the show!

Jerry is a blessing for our side. Seriously. So affable and charismatic (in a good way)… He knows the pain of reason and logic as he reconciled an existence that does not have a god… His helping the Recovering From Religion foundation is the perfect fit in the community.
I only meet him in person for a couple minutes, but I feel he really wears his heart on his sleeve. That comes through when he speaks. Love the guy. If I ever meet him again, he’s getting a big hug

My podcast software is unable to download your feed. I downloaded the first 5, but it said that the server was unknown when I tried to download the 6th. I’m on an android if that helps. I really enjoy your podcasts!

Check to see if you can reach the site. We’ve had some down time due to a problem at the data center and me tweaking the resources to try to keep the costs down. If you’re still having issues email me at [email protected] and I’ll work with you when I get off work. – Dustin
