The Mormon History Hoedown

This is one of those conversations that changes how you see your entire life. Leah Young shares what it actually feels like to have your belief system collapse in real time and what it takes to rebuild from the ground up. From reading the CES letter to nearly losing her marriage, this episode goes deep into identity, fear, control, and the moment you decide to trust yourself. If you’ve ever questioned what you were taught, needed guidance on how to talk to believers, or wondered who you are outside of the system you were raised in, this episode will hit!All the Carah Burrell links 🔗 https://linktr.ee/nuancehoe Carah Burrell Substack: https://substack.com/@carahburrell?

Why is the U.S. bombing Iran? Why is it that we are seeing a sudden, frantic surge in apocalyptic rhetoric coming from the highest levels of our government? Is it possible that the people currently steering our military into a conflict with Iran are operating from a "prophetic blueprint"? Let's discuss.

Buckle up to use your brains; we're talking neuroscience. Before I share how my 30 days of Mormonizing went, I wanted to open up about some big-picture ideas. I’m joined by Mat Sillito to talk about why belief isn’t just ideas in your head, it’s what your body rehearses. We get into the brain’s default mode network, how environments trigger responses before you “choose” them, and why rituals can function like drugs: shaping attention, identity, anxiety, and connection.Subscribe to @drugfactswithdrmat Link: https://www.youtube.com/@UCM5hJmIY3yxtj5exJ-IESLQAll the Carah Burrell links 🔗 https://linktr.ee/nuancehoeCarah Burrell Substack: https://substack.com/@carahburrell?Help me continue making important, hilarious content by becoming a one-time or monthly donor!🤝 DONATE via DONORBOX! https://donorbox.org/thanks-for-the-amazing-content-carah-let-me-help-you-keep-it-funded👩‍💻 Join the Hoetown community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/nuancehoe🍯 Tip Jar (Venmo: CarahB): https://account.venmo.com/u/CarahB📫 Contact Nuancehoe: [email protected]

In this episode, I chat with Elena Bridgers, science writer and author of Motherhood Until Yesterday to talk about the lie most moms are living under: that motherhood should feel natural, effortless, and fulfilling on its own. Instead, we uncover why modern motherhood feels so hard and why it’s not your failure, it’s the mismatch between how humans evolved to raise children and how we’re expected to do it now. Elena explains how real human parenting used to look, why community and support were the norm, and why isolation and pressure leave so many mothers overwhelmed and exhausted. We also dive into the narratives many moms inherit from religion, feminist ideals, and internet culture that frame motherhood in ways that help just about no one. Elena’s work blends evolutionary biology, anthropology, and real-life experience to help mothers feel seen, understood, and less alone.

My first working title for this episode was: "Leaving Mormonism and Flying Frontier: What I Wish I Had to Survive." I think that sums it up!

You'll never guess who I ran into at the local "Fuck Nazis" rally in Utah. That's right, Kwaku El. The face of Ward Radio and Mormon apologetic videos sits down with me for a deep dive on the history and viewpoints of this funky, new brand of white supremacy that bowie knife-wielding involuntary celibates are calling "DezNat". Why? Because the Nazis are here and no one, least of which the LDS church or its pro-LDS podcasters, are doing anything about it.All my links 🔗 https://linktr.ee/nuancehoe Help me continue making important, hilarious content by becoming a one-time or monthly donor!🤝 DONATE VIA DONORBOX! https://donorbox.org/thanks-for-the-amazing-content-carah-let-me-help-you-keep-it-funded👩‍💻 Join the Hoetown community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/nuancehoe🍯 Tip Jar (Venmo: CarahB): https://account.venmo.com/u/CarahB📫 Contact Nuancehoe: [email protected]

Welcome to a recap of the multi-part series on The Mountain Meadows Massacre with historian, author, director of Signature Books, content editor of the award-winning "Massacre at Mountain Meadows" and co-author of "Vengeance Is Mine, The Mountain Meadows Massacre and Its Aftermath" Barbara Jones Brown!In this live steam we ask Barbara the quick facts on the Mountain Meadows Massacre, a tragic event in Mormon history where a group of Mormons in 1857 killed a large group of innocent men, women, and children. With Destiny begging to Manifest in the 1850s, the US government was hot for an economic and cultural superiority expansion. Mormons had their backs! Or DID they?Here's the overview of all the forces at play that led otherwise sane people (hold your jokes) to commit heinous acts of violence on innocent people.Pick up the book Vengeance Is Mine from your local bookseller or online: https://www.amazon.com/Vengeance-Mine-Mountain-Massacre-Aftermath/dp/0195397851Listen to the audiobook of Vengeance Is Mine: https://www.audible.com/pd/Vengeance-Is-Mine-Audiobook/B0C6FPQFB5?eac_link=QUOOMHSekDaE&ref=web_search_eac_asin_3&eac_selected_type=asin&eac_selected=B0C6FPQFB5&qid=xMIVfP7ajx&eac_id=140-1729692-0760619_xMIVfP7ajx&sr=1-3All my links and info on the group trip to Greece! 🔗 https://linktr.ee/nuancehoe👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Welcome to the video that Mormons wish was just clickbait. We're embarking on a thought-provoking analysis, featuring an exclusive interview with Ryan Fisher, @NephiteExplorer. It's an honor to have Ryan join us again to provide deeper insights into the complex narrative of Tim Ballard. We are connecting dots and making enemies with doomsdayers and 100 billion dollar corporations. Shocking blessings from Mormon leaders that absolve Tim of guilt is just the start. This is NOT a drill. This is the REAL DEAL. Do these key pieces of intel from Ryan's decade-long friendship with Tim Ballard combined with the new amendments in the lawsuit and passages from Vision of Glory explain everything? Everyone's pencils down and eyes forward for the most fascinating deep dive into the mind and making of Tim Ballard.

Welcome Nephite Explorer to the podcast! In part one, we're diving deep into the mind of Tim Ballard, founder of Operation Underground Railroad, with Ryan Fisher, former confidant of Tim Ballard, esteemed videographer, ex-Heartlander, and journalist. Get ready for an eye-opening multi-series interview with Ryan. From where Tim Ballard's controversial journey began in the conservative Mormon demographic, and the ethical concerns surrounding his efforts to combat child trafficking. Ryan shares his experience working closely with Tim and launching his American Covenant theories into mainstream Mormonism. In this gripping exposé, we peel back the layers of Tim Ballard's enigmatic persona, and unravel the complex web of connections between Tim Ballard, the Mormon Church, M. Russell Ballard, and Joseph Smith. Plus, we'll delve into the controversial topic of the second anointing in Mormonism and its potential implications for Tim's trajectory.Nephite Explorer: https://www.youtube.com/ @NephiteExplorer All my links and info on the group trip to Greece! 🔗 https://linktr.ee/nuancehoe👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Welcome to this soon-to-be legendary episode of The Mormon History Hoedown in which I interview Kwaku El, known for his staunch defense of Mormonism on Ward Radio, Saints Unscripted, and Jubilee’s Mormons vs. Exmormons! In the ring with Kwaku today, we kick it off with his conversion, liberal background, and perspectives as an apologist in the Mormon space. How did he make that shift, what's his deal and what's with all these a**holes? Moving on, we've got some drama brewing: Ad hominem attacks, DezNat showdowns, and all the tea on what Joseph Smith was really all about. Jumping ahead, let's get down to basics: What even is Mormonism, and how does Kwaku see it compared to the mainstream? Then, we're diving into the nitty-gritty: Kwaku’s version of Mormonism versus the beliefs of the masses. We've got some spicy topics to stir up: Is masturbation a sin, and are Mormons getting it on before marriage? What is "true," and does it even matter? The Book of Mormon – is it historical, or just a good story? We're breaking it down. Plus, we've got some tight vs. loose translation debates and a chat about anachronisms. Stick around as I engage in a spirited debate with Kwaku, the go-to guy for defending Joseph Smith and nuancing the modern LDS church.👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support! So, great news!

In this episode, I interview the wise and delightful Suzy Baker, co-founder of The Psychedelic Assembly. We explore her life in Mormonism in Alabama, Utah and New York City, as well as the dark side of dating her zone leader on her mission and the events that led her out of the church. Cozy up with Carah with Suzy for this special reveal of Suzy's mission experience. Serving the Lord? And serving the lust. And shame. A place where hopes, consent, and a whole lot of trauma collide. We discuss the pressure to boost baptism numbers, and the surprising events that led to her zone leader asking Suzy to pray to fall in love with him.We hope this story celebrates the power of humanity and community while dishing out some sage advice on spotting red flags, including what Suzy wishes she could tell her younger self.Suzy's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suzycbaker/Below is a great article from an active support network called Psychedelic Support and they talk about what to look out for when choosing someone to work with in a healing context: https://psychedelic.support/resources/dark-side-plant-medicine/The Women's Visionary Council is an amazing organization that my dear friend Annie King founded.

This is part four where Barbara and I discuss the Mountain Meadows Massacre, a tragic event in Mormon history where a group of Mormons in 1857 killed a large group of innocent men, women, and children.We kick things off with a review of the brutal crime of wiping out all the innocent people including young witnesses. As tensions soar, the Mormon leaders are left reeling at the shocking aftermath of their actions. Lies fly and a frantic cover-up ensues, leaving everyone scrambling to keep their secrets buried. The whole situation blows wide open when freighters stumble upon the scene. Amidst the chaos, questions arise about what the orphaned kids might know and how to make them forget. Things take an even more sinister turn when leaders start bragging about their misdeeds in church and resort to making violent threats, then telling prophet Brigham Young a fictionalized version of events.Pick up the book Vengeance Is Mine from your local bookseller or online: https://www.amazon.com/Vengeance-Mine-Mountain-Massacre-Aftermath/dp/0195397851Listen to the audiobook of Vengeance Is Mine: https://www.audible.com/pd/Vengeance-Is-Mine-Audiobook/B0C6FPQFB5?eac_link=QUOOMHSekDaE&ref=web_search_eac_asin_3&eac_selected_type=asin&eac_selected=B0C6FPQFB5&qid=xMIVfP7ajx&eac_id=140-1729692-0760619_xMIVfP7ajx&sr=1-3👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Pleasure is the measure, so satisfy your longings to hang out with me for an hour of free education from Natasha Helfer, a certified sex therapist! React with us as we watch Girl Defined's most uncomfortable, now deleted, highly controversial video where Bethany interviews Christian "sex counselors" as they detail their path through God-honoring, non-orgasmic, duty-bound sex. In this enlightening video, we take a deep dive into the world of purity culture through the hellscape of Mormonism and Christianity. You've heard of Girl Defined reaction videos, but all pale in comparison to the wise, empathetic education Natasha brings to this discussion for those looking to still deconstruct unhelpful Christian sexual dogmas.Check out Natasha's website and come out to her reclaiming female sexuality event that I'll be speaking at on April 20th in Ogden, Utah! https://www.natashahelfer.com/retreat👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

In this second episode of our series, historian Barbara Jones Brown takes us through the violent rhetoric on behalf of Mormon leaders that led up to the Mountain Meadows Massacre. From 1856 to 1857 in Utah, Mormon prophet Brigham Young played a role in shaping the mindset of the Mormon settlers resulting in a theocracy, heaps of polygamy, and the idea that avenging the blood of prophets was the only rational thing to do. Blood atonement and the Mormon Reformation are key aspects to understanding the religious doctrine and context of the time that shed light on the motivations and justifications used by the perpetrators of the massacre.Pick up the book Vengeance Is Mine from your local bookseller or online: https://www.amazon.com/Vengeance-Mine-Mountain-Massacre-Aftermath/dp/0195397851Listen to the audiobook of Vengeance Is Mine: https://www.audible.com/pd/Vengeance-Is-Mine-Audiobook/B0C6FPQFB5?eac_link=QUOOMHSekDaE&ref=web_search_eac_asin_3&eac_selected_type=asin&eac_selected=B0C6FPQFB5&qid=xMIVfP7ajx&eac_id=140-1729692-0760619_xMIVfP7ajx&sr=1-3👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Listen to this podcast, then listen to it again to digest all the wisdom of my guest, Stephanie Brinkerhoff, as we discuss the difficult road to empowerment as an Ex-Mormon. It's time we get to the heart of the process.From leaving a church that took away her autonomy and intuition, and how psychedelics helped her break free, my guest Stephanie discusses associations of safety with following the rules of the Mormon Church. She believed she would feel safe if she ticked off the boxes and followed the teachings. However, after leaving the church and deconstructing her beliefs, she realized that true safety is an internal state of being, a cultivated inner state. A safety that comes from within and involves connecting with oneself, cultivating inner peace, and trusting in one's own intuition. With real examples,I hope this episode is useful for everyone still trying to find their power as we answer questions from viewers! And please leave all your experiences with empowerment in the comments!For more of Stephanie's goodness, follow her on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/stephanieannagain/ Listen to Stephanie's Mormon Stories interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1JB-albFoU Don't miss this amazing discussion with Doug, Mike, and Stephanie at Mormon on Mushroom's podcast: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2KUTQwWlB4DiWfkk9V1mwK👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

In this episode we get into the religious fervor and experimentation of Joseph Smith's time, the dark legacy of racism, divisions, and culture war over issues like gender equality, LGBTQ rights, and religious liberty, including pivotal moments in Mormon history, such as the introduction and eventual abandonment of polygamy, the struggles for women's rights and racial equality within the church, and the impact of the church's alignment with the Republican party and conservative politics.👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Today I'm joined by Shelise with Cults to Consciousness as we dive into the shocking details of the lies, hush money, and SA within the Mormon church that have recently come to light. We discuss the mishandled SA cases within the LDS church and the troubling instances in which the leaders failed to protect victims, fostering silence and cover-ups, and failing to report SA to authorities. Does the church prioritize its reputation over its own members?Links to articles and videos mentions: Daily Mail article: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12732055/mormon-church-leaders-accused-sexual-abuse-incest-cover-up.htmlAP article: https://apnews.com/article/mormon-church-investigation-child-sex-abuse-9c301f750725c0f06344f948690caf16Mormon Stories episode with Jared and Ashley: https://www.mormonstories.org/portfolio-items/mormon-sa-jared-ashley-jones/👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

All you gluttons for deconstruction, get on in here. I'm delighted to have Steven Pynakker tell me about his nuanced Christian worldview as I push back with every question I feel is necessary. What a treat. We tackle about the questions around the necessity of Christianity, the bible, and religion as a whole. I think it has something for everyone. Believers, non-believers, and everyone who hated my appearance on Steven's program "Mormon Book Reviews". It gets a bit uncomfortable at times, I welcome all pushback, so let me know your thoughts in the comments!Check out my episode on Steven's channel: https://youtu.be/OpBuCnMCwW4?feature=shared👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Super yikes! Reacting to the insane prophesies of Todd Cella, just uploaded November 13th, 2023. They are very unsettling. How can this be stopped? Mormons, when a man says he is God's chosen servant to usher in the second coming, think twice about dooms-doing what Doomsy Doomer Does.Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfBABo7BVN0👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Now: We unravel our understanding of holy lands and what pieces of empathy were missing in our previous Mormon minds, including the context and history that's been hidden.Join us in this eye-opening series where two curious ExMo gals explore the intricate facets of Zionism, delving into its historical, political, and religious implications. Lindsay and I draw on our own journeys of challenging established ideologies, to take you through the intricacies of Zionism, examining its historical roots, and modern interpretations within the context of what has been unfolding with Israel and Palestine for 75 years.With a fresh perspective, shaped by our experiences breaking free from the confines of one structured belief system, we are proud to bring you the Israel-Palestine breakdown of the century atop our know-it-all high horses.(I know that name-calling and so forth happens a lot when discussing this topic so all comments will need to be approved because I'm counteracting the Marxist accusations sure to come my way by keeping my comment section my own private property.)Send Lindsay some love on Venmo @socialistlyawkward1443Check out her links to follow her in all the places: https://linktr.ee/Socialistlyawkward👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

Welcome to my favorite report on Tim Ballard of all time. I promise to be as unhinged as all the corruption that's being exposed from the high-profile LDS friendships. What else would you expect? Details that involve Mormon tithing records used for fundraising, acquired on behalf of Mormon Apostle Elder Ballard to target wealthy tithe payers to funnel more cash to Operation Underground Railroad (because 5-star hotel rooms with Mexico City's finest escorts don't grow on trees). Those funds were then spent by OUR to silence more victims of sexual exploitation and build Tim Ballard a brand of respect, wealth, and ironically titled movies such as "The Sound of Freedom". Glenn Beck, Utah AG Sean Reyes, OUR President Matt Osborne, and all your favorite characters pop in to show us what unfettered access to ketamine will do to a man.Link to document: https://www.mormonstories.org/681863389-Amended-Complaint-in-Tim-Ballard-Case.pdfLink to full interview with Blaze's father: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPQix5VQmiY👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!

The doomsday Mormons sure are doomsdaying lately. Making this a dooms-month and the most doomsiest year in recent history. Today I’m going to give you the latest updates on Blaze Thibaudeau. The Arizona 16 year old that was taken by his Mormon doomsday mother and uncle last Monday. He has been found safe by the Alaskan border and we’ll talk about what led up to all this unfolding as well as my normal rants including a Chuck-o-Rama analogy that I think is right on the money.
