Dusty Tries to Kill Emma! Probably Because He Just Learned that Summer Interns Get Paid!

In this episode of The Bible Belt Bros Podcast, Emma joins Andrew and Dusty to share all about her summer internship at a church in Virginia. She opens up about her calling into children’s ministry—while somehow ending up in a youth ministry internship instead. The trio dives into what it was like for her to experience a much larger church, the lessons she learned, and how it shaped her faith and future. Meanwhile, Dusty has his own revelation: interns actually get paid now. This leads to a nostalgic detour about his glory days working at a video store—before Emma was even born. Classic Dusty humor (and awkward timing) strikes again when one of his stories nearly causes Emma to choke on her coffee mid-laugh. It’s an episode packed with laughs, generational gaps, and a few heartfelt moments about calling, ministry, and growing up in faith—Bible Belt Bros style.
