Friendly Atheist Podcast

I was compelled to write a review today right before I listened to this week’s episode. Obviously, I had to give this show five stars, and I have been a Patron for a little while now - it’s actually the only show for which I signed up for a whole year at once. So why am I just now giving it a review? Well, reader, it’s because I’m so confused about my excitement to listen to this week’s episode. I caught myself thinking, “I’m going to treat myself while getting ready for work and listen to the Friendly Atheist Podcast,” which doesn’t seem that weird until you realize they are talking about the world and the messed up stuff happening. Jess and Hemant have managed to create a place where even hearing about the chaos and absolute trouncing of our basic human rights is still a little treat. Out of the 13 shows I subscribe to every month, this is absolutely my favorite. Thank you both for the work you do, and thank you for helping us all stay informed.

Not a serious examination of any given topic. Shame to have wasted any time on it.

I really love the dynamic between Jessica and Hemant. Hemant brings the facts and Jessica adds the color commentary. It proves an entertaining, informative and welcoming experience! One of my first podcasts ever followed and these many years later I still look forward to each weekly episode.

Jessica is a dose of sanity I deeply appreciate. Living in a remote part of the UP I don’t know any other atheist women. It gets pritty bleak. So I sing and cry and laugh along every week and feel uplifted for a minute. That guy on the show with her is pretty cool too, but I don’t do crosswords and am a horse girl forever and my dogs interrupt all my recordings so to me it feels like Hemant is a good cohost on Jessica’s podcast. 😆
