Episode 0 – Welcome to Atheistville

In this short introductory episode, host Mike Smithgall lays the foundation for what Atheistville is all about, a podcast created for atheists, ex-Christians, skeptics, and anyone questioning religion’s role in their lives.Atheistville isn’t here to bash anyone’s personal beliefs. But it challenges the idea that nonbelievers should stay silent in a world where religion is treated as the default. This show is for people who are tired of pretending, tired of apologizing, and ready to live out loud.This episode introduces the three core series that make up the Atheistville podcast:👉 Ask an Atheist – Long-form interviews with atheists from all backgrounds, discussing their deconversion stories, personal journeys, and the social and emotional challenges of walking away from faith. 👉 Mike Drop – Solo commentary episodes where Mike offers a skeptical, reasoned take on religion, politics, and current events. Raw, direct, and always unfiltered. 👉 The Unholy Roundtable – A live, unscripted panel where atheists respond to listener-submitted questions with honesty, humor, and a wide range of perspectives.You'll also hear how to connect with the show, check out the Atheistville YouTube channel, and maybe even appear as a guest or panelist.If you're looking for honest, thoughtful, and unapologetic conversations about life without religion.Welcome to Atheistville.
