Awesome

Love this podcast. Like the people who get invited to come on ( mostly Mikey). Even being an atheist I still like learning about other religions and how its practiced. And honestly I’m glad that Wesley is gone. He was just a bump on a log kind of guy.

GOD, is she annoying.

She adds nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Dawkins

Remember, this old guy had a stroke about two years ago.
