Deadly Faith is a true crime podcast that explores the world where religion and crime collide. The world in which some people take their religious beliefs a tad too far. Maybe they hide their evil behind their 'Man of God' persona. Maybe they start a cult, commit murder, or even believe they're the second coming of Jesus Christ himself. It's not a world full of sunshine and rainbows, but it's a world that needs to be explored. That's where Laci and Lola come in. So get ready for some deep dives, hard truths, and even comedic relief as they tell these heartbreaking stories.

Customer Reviews
Love the theme!
These two have found a great niche in a very competitive genre. I love that this includes the hypocrisy of religious people getting caught behaving horribly. They have a style that is fun and easy to listen. The stories flow well and are thoughtful. They tell them in a way that feels like two friends sharing stories over coffee, ice tea, or an adult drink.
Poorly done
Hosts have a limited vocabulary so they revert to vulgar language to make a point. Also mispronounce many things which is sad because Google will give correct pronunciations if they would take a minute to do so.
Great start!
I enjoyed the pod. Not my normal subject matter but really enjoyed the conversational manner and honest reactions. Looking forward to more. Your #0 intro pod was also a good hook. I have lots in common with both of y’all.
