We talked about his new film, and what it means to navigate family, culture, and identity in a country that feels like it's falling apart.

It might be the calmest thing I’ve published all week. Take a breath. Press play.

Dan breaks down what the Bible says about hot-button issues like abortion, slavery, lying, and homosexuality…and how scripture often contradicts itself. He also shares how he went from being raised agnostic to becoming a Mormon, and what most people get wrong about Mormonism. If you're skeptical about a Mormon writing a book like this, just wait until you hear what Dan has to say. There are smart, left-leaning folks in every faith tradition, even the ones you wouldn’t expect. Don’t miss when it hits shelves April 29. God

Rejoice, for I bring thee tidings of great schadenfreude: ELON MUSK HATH LOST A WHOLE BILL GATES. 1. HE DID THIS TO HIMSELF * * * Tesla’s stock hath crashed OVER 40% SINCE DECEMBER, wiping out $111 BILLION of Elon’s fortune.

Trump’s new tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico are WRECKING Tesla’s supply chains, and the stock market took one look and said Funny how licking fascist boots always ends in you getting your face stomped.

DEAR HUMANS, Another day, another disaster waiting to happen. Donold wants Boeing to a new Air Force One—because what could possibly go wrong? Inflation is “back” (according to Donold), people are apparently flipping eggs like real estate, and Sean Duffy is making up more lies about air safety. Oh, and if Jesus came back? Yeah, let’s just say it wouldn’t go well. Let’s get into it. 1. TOPICS INCLUDE: __ __
DEAR HUMANS, Sometimes, the universe delivers a moment of PURE, UNFILTERED SCHADENFREUDE so powerful that even GOD AND JESUS can’t handle it. This was one of those moments.

And we, your benevolent deities, are here to watch it unfold together and LAUGH OUR DIVINE ASSES OFF. 1. EVEN A TODDLER CAN SEE THROUGH DONOLD’S BS __ __ Listen to today's episode right now! * *

DEAR HUMANS, Jesus was having a great Thanksgiving weekend with Mary and Joseph - not to mention seeing with Judas - until he learned that Joe Biden had pardoned his son Hunter. This and more are discussed on today’s new episode of The God Pod! Watch to hear what we think of Joe’s pardon, what Jesus thought of , how God celebrated Thanksgiving, and how corporate media has unfairly covered the economy. While we’re on the subject of corporate media coverage, it will shock no one that to learn that yesterday, the NY Times ran SIX stories on Joe Biden pardoning his son…and only ONE on Trump promising to weaponize the FBI to go after anyone he considers his political enemy, such as yours truly. One way to fight the outdated, unfair media is to support leftist newsletters and podcasts like ours. Establishment media has fallen to billionaire control! Support independent media!! We’re all you have left.
DEAR HUMANS, In the newest episode of the God Pod, God and Jesus attempt to figure out what went wrong in this election and where we must go from here. STOP saying ‘we only lost by two points.’ STOP paying political consultants, and START trying to win over low information voters. Do we want to win... ever? Let’s start by figuring out who is making the decisions at the DNC. Decisions like…let’s be Republicans Lite. Things need to change. Making the exact same mistakes next time is THE REBELLION BEGINS NOW!

BEHOLD! Yesterday Jesus and I recorded a 30-minute reaction episode to everything that’s happened in U.S. politics in the last week. Check it out! Be sure to visit TheGodPodcast.com to get full video episodes and daily articles from God and Jesus! * *
BEHOLD! Last night Jesus and I recorded a 30-minute reaction episode to the debate. Check it out in the video above! Forsooth, as we predicted, the corporate media said that Vance won the debate because they have pudding for brains, which is mean to pudding. Pudding isn’t totally corrupt, bought and paid for by right wing billionaires. We talk about it all in-depth!
DEAR HUMANS, The other day Captain Dipshit said in an interview that he won’t run again in 2028 if he loses this election. He would be 82 or 83 at the time. * > said The Demented One, when asked if he would run again in 4 years if he loses this year. Of course, he said in 2020 that if he lost that year, we would never see or hear from him again. And sadly, that was not true. He never shuts the fuck up. He never goes away. Do you believe him? Or is he full of shit? Am I insane for asking that? Because that’s what JESUS says in our latest episode. I still can’t believe his answer. Halloween’s around the corner, would the Republicans run his corpse if they could? Would they clone him? Robo-Donald? We already have racist psychopath Donald…although I assume all Donald retreads would have that. Anyway, give the new episode of the God Pod in the video above a little looksie. Jesus and I recap what happened in the last week and somehow find ways to make each other laugh.
DEAR DONALD TRUMP JR., I see thou art whining about having to explain to children that a shooter almost killed thy father. Now you know how it feels to be a parent sending their kids to public schools in the USA on any given day. Thou shalt not complain about how unsafe it is living in America. Your father was the president for 4 years. What did he get done? Nothing. He literally people to “get over it” the day after a mass shooting in Iowa. Human life is meaningless to him. Thou shalt not complain about how unsafe it is as you dad’s cult rallies. He has been stirring up a hive of insane bees for 9 long years now. Did thou really thinkest the killer bees would never sting thee? Thou shalt not blame Democrats for two registered Republicans trying to take out your dad in the last two months. Both assassins were registered as Republicans. This most recent one even voted for thy father in 2016! It is not the fault of Democrats, who have always condemned violence and expressed gratitude that Donald is okay. It is the fault of Republicans, who see no problem in encouraging others to commit acts of violence, as your father did on January 6, 2021. As he did last week against Haitian immigrants. As he always does. Hast thou not ever studied history? Being a fascist leader isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Thou might want to read to the end of what happened to Adolph Hitler in World War 2. Those who live by the sword, die by the sword. Those who live by the violent rhetoric, die by their own violent rhetoric. Those who stand in the way of gun control, shall see their own family members die by guns not being controlled. Here endeth the lesson.
