Oompaville recently released a video about Mormonism, but how accurate was it? In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor, and Cade take a deep dive into Oompaville’s coverage of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, pointing out its errors, omissions, and one-sided framing.From misunderstandings about Joseph Smith and church history to mischaracterizations of LDS doctrine, the hosts fact-check Oompaville’s claims and explore how sensationalist approaches to faith can distort truth. They clarify the difference between official LDS teachings and the actions of splinter groups, discuss issues like Kolob, celestial marriage, and the so-called “White Horse Prophecy,” and emphasize that Mormonism’s core message remains centered on Jesus Christ.

What happens when online rhetoric turns into real-world tragedy? In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor, and Cade discuss the recent Michigan incident where members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints were murdered and their chapel was burned down.The hosts trace how language and labeling can spiral into harm, identifying three escalating levels of dialogue often seen online:1️⃣ Calling Mormons “not Christian.”2️⃣ Accusing their beliefs of being “demonic.”3️⃣ Rationalizing or condoning violence.They react to harmful commentary from high-profile Christian influencers, including Mark Driscoll, and explain how this rhetoric dehumanizes believers and fuels intolerance. The conversation also addresses theological misconceptions, such as distortions of theosis and women’s eternal roles, and points to the urgent need for empathy and honesty in interfaith discussions.

What do Mormons really believe? In this episode of All Those in Favor, the hosts bring together a diverse group of Gen Z Latter-day Saints to answer the internet’s biggest questions about Mormonism, straight from Google, Instagram, and YouTube comments.From debates about “rules” like coffee and tattoos to deeper doctrinal topics like the Trinity, the Book of Mormon’s translation, and the belief in becoming “like God,” nothing is off the table. The guests include lifelong members, recent converts, and men and women who share how their faith shapes their lives in real and relatable ways.They debunk myths about Mormonism being a “cult,” clarify that church guidelines are about faith and connection, not control, and explain why personal agency is central to their beliefs. The conversation also explores topics like modesty, women’s roles, and how family and community strengthen their spiritual journey.

In this episode, Baylor and Cade dive into the strange and fascinating story of Ishmael, also known as “Ish of Arabia,” a man who tried to infiltrate the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as an experiment. From his wild takes on Mormon theology to his attempts to “join undercover,” the hosts react, laugh, and fact-check along the way.If you wan to listen to Ishmael’s conversion story to catholicism:    • From Muslim to Catholic: Islam Is the Here...  The story of his conversion to Christ is awesome and everyone should check it out!In this video, we discuss everything from misconceptions about becoming “a god” to how baptism and leadership really work in the church. Along the way, they unpack Ishmael’s outsider perspective, respond to analogies like “the Trinity as a corporation,” and address misconceptions about Joseph Smith, polygamy, and LDS history.It’s a mix of humor, clarity, and thoughtful conversation about what people often get wrong about Mormonism, and why talking about it still matters.

In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor and Cade react to and review TheosU’s “Mormonism” course, critiquing its factual errors, tone, and lack of scholarly depth.The hosts start by responding to a social media post from TheosU that misrepresents LDS theology, particularly by omitting the centrality of Christ. They share their interactions with the university’s staff, who claimed to have a “well-rounded staff in classical Mormonism”, and unpack what happened when they actually took the course through a free trial.Inside the course, they find multiple inaccuracies, from mispronouncing key names to confusing entire doctrinal points (like calling Mormon the uncle of Moroni). They also address TheosU’s use of outdated, polemical sources and the dismissive attitude toward LDS feedback.

Is Mormonism really “not Christian”? And are Latter-day Saints preaching a “different gospel”? In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor and Cade respond to common evangelical and Catholic critiques of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.The hosts react to videos from Mark Driscoll and Sean McDowell, examining their accusations that Mormonism is a cult or unbiblical. They break down frequent proof-texts like Galatians 1:8 and compare Paul’s gospel in 1 Corinthians 15 with teachings in the Book of Mormon—showing their shared focus on Christ’s death and resurrection.The discussion also clarifies LDS beliefs about grace and works, emphasizing that salvation is through Christ while discipleship involves faithful living, a view shared by many Christian traditions. Alongside debunking outdated critiques, the hosts highlight a Catholic influencer who corrected his own misconceptions about Mormonism and modeled more honest interfaith engagement.

What makes Latter-day Saint philosophy stand out from classical Christian theology? In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor and Cade sit down with Joseph Lawal, Yale PhD student in philosophy, and Emerson Green, a YouTuber and agnostic thinker, for a fascinating discussion on the coherence, depth, and distinctives of LDS thought.Joseph and Emerson highlight why LDS theology can seem more persuasive than classical theism, rejecting doctrines like divine simplicity, immutability, and creation ex nihilo in favor of a more finite and relational God. They also explore LDS teachings on pre-existence, creation from material, and a more hopeful account of the problem of evil, as well as rejecting eternal conscious torment for most people.The discussion ranges widely across philosophy and theology.

In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor and Cade sit down with Wes Wright, former BYU football player and gospel content creator, to react to a viral clip from Haley and Ashley Therapy and discuss regret, fulfillment, and discipleship.The conversation starts by challenging the narrative that growing up in the Church, marrying young, and having children early always leads to missed fulfillment. Wes shares why he finds deep meaning in raising a family and building a legacy, and why self-focus or hedonistic lifestyles rarely bring lasting joy.Wes also opens up about his personal journey, including struggles with faith, mistakes, and a painful season of mental health challenges that included a suicide attempt. Through it all, he found peace and purpose in the gospel, discipleship, and a focus on becoming a better husband, father, and follower of Christ.

In this episode of All Those in Favor, Baylor and Cade sit down with historian Jonathan Stapley (PhD in Chemistry; Oxford University Press author) to explore the origins, theology, and evolution of LDS temple liturgy.From the biblical roots of washings, anointings, and priesthood vestments to the community role of the Kirtland Temple and the kinship networks of Nauvoo, Stapley traces how temple rituals expanded to include both men and women, reshaping the Saints’ vision of heaven as a network of eternal relationships.We also dive into sensitive but vital topics: racial restrictions in priesthood and temple access, the impact of new historical sources, and the ongoing revelations that continue to shape Latter-day Saint cosmology today.

If Severance is all about control, is Mormonism guilty of the same thing? In this episode, we respond to Hayley Rawle’s bold comparison between Apple TV’s cult-hit series and Latter-day Saint faith, unpacking what it really means to be part of a “high-demand religion.”We explore how Mormonism—and religion in general—shapes identity, community, and agency, while also challenging assumptions about what it means to live a faithful, structured life.

Joe Heschmeyer asked if Mormons really worship Jesus — so we’re answering. In this episode, we respond point-by-point to his claims, break down what Latter-day Saints actually believe, and clear up common misconceptions.From the “Mormon rebranding” narrative to Bruce R. McConkie’s controversial teachings, we dig into scripture, history, and lived faith to set the record straight.

Is it just or loving for God to hate sinners he predestined not to save? In this episode, we react to a conference panel tackling one of the most controversial ideas in Christian theology — divine wrath and predestination.We dig into whether sin was ever truly a choice, the implications of Adam’s fall, and whether God’s eternal punishment reflects justice or something else entirely. Along the way, we explore the tension between annihilationism, free will, and misunderstood translations about God’s anger.Join us as we challenge traditional views, question inherited theology, and look for a more consistent view of who God really is.

Are Latter-day Saint influencers being paid to bear testimony online? We break down the viral rumor, share our own experience with the agency behind the outreach, and explain what’s actually happening behind the scenes.This episode takes you inside the origin of the conspiracy, what was really asked of creators, and the difference between Church-approved initiatives and third-party UGC campaigns. No fluff — just facts and our firsthand take.

What makes a talk unforgettable? We revisit our favorite devotionals and General Conference addresses—breaking down why these messages still matter and what they’ve taught us about grace, discipleship, and the power of submission.From Elder Holland’s “The Will of the Father” to President Nelson’s “Let God Prevail,” we unpack the spiritual insights, bold doctrines, and personal stories that shaped our own faith journeys.

In this episode, we are joined by Claire to take on one of the most misunderstood topics in Latter-day Saint culture: women and the priesthood. From scriptural nuance to cultural assumptions, they challenge common arguments, explore what priesthood actually means, and highlight the spiritual responsibilities of both men and women.Whether you’ve wrestled with this issue or are just curious, this is the episode to help you think deeper, clearer, and more faithfully.

We sit down and react to Bryce Crawford’s viral TikToks about Mormonism — and yeah, it gets real. From seer stones to the Trinity to “Jesus and Lucifer are brothers,” they unpack the hot takes and drop their own. Some takes are fair. Some… not so much 😅Whether you're confused, curious, or just here for the comments, you're in good company. Let’s talk about it.

The word "cult" gets thrown around a lot — especially when it comes to a group people don't understand.I sat down with Dr. Lorne Dawson, one of the top scholars on new religious movements, to talk about where that label actually comes from, why it’s usually wrong, and how brainwashing isn’t what people think it is.We also talk about how the Latter-day Saint Church has been misrepresented, why people really join and leave religious groups, and how media narratives shape public perception.This one cuts through the noise. Straight facts. No sensationalism.

In this episode, I had the chance to sit down with Alin Ardeleanu, a Romanian Orthodox scholar, while I was in Romania. This might be the most respectful interfaith conversation I’ve ever had.We talked about the Orthodox Church, LDS beliefs, and where our faiths overlap and diverge. From the Trinity and the role of Mary to icons, miracles, and how we live our faith day to day, we covered a lot.This wasn’t just a debate, it was a real conversation. One rooted in respect, curiosity, and a shared desire to understand each other better.
