Pouty Girls: The Second Coming
Send us Fan MailIt's part 2!!! We talk with the queen Tara Herbert from Pouty Mouth Podcast about leaving Mormonism, surviving Utah, and finding humor in the absolute weirdness of religious control. From growing up with body neutrality to having that unravel under garments, missions, and relentless modesty policing, Tara breaks down how purity culture, pressure to be thin, and the rush to become a perfect Mormon wife at the ripe age of 18. We get into the contradictions that make religion so insane once you’re out: women’s bodies and blood being labeled dirty while everyone’s taking shots of Jesus' metaphorical diva cup, religions crediting men with creating life despite… literall everything in observable nature. And why the Garden of Eden being in Jackson County, Missouri should’ve been a red flag. Tara reflects on what it was like being Black at BYU, dating within Mormonism, and navigating a religion and region where whiteness is the default. Then... it devolves into... something. For privacy and legal sake we had to cut out a lot, so if it doesn't make any sense, just enjoy the chaos. And for the record... WE DO NOT CONDONE METH Find the talented, hilarious and stunning Tara Herbert at the link below! https://www.watchcosmosis.com/poutymouthSupport the showhttps://linktr.ee/girlsgonegodless

In this episode, we get deep as we discuss the challenges of interfaith marriages, self discovery in the ever changing landscape of deconstruction, and parenting without purity culture bullshit. But don't you worry, we also get shallow and let the f-bombs fly. If you are a fan of our show, you will definitely love Tara’s.

Blessed Be the Bitches with Eman Abdou
Send us Fan MailOn this episode we are joined by the incredibly talented Eman Abdou! We've been big fans of her online content where she unpacks and educates about the harms of Abrahamic religions (particularly Islam, the religion she grew up with) and are so thrilled we got to sit down with her and pick her brain. We learn about the origins of the hijab and how it's rooted in male entitlement and ownership, her deconstruction story, how to harness your own power and trust your own judgement, and to leave the guilt and shame behind that society and religions just loves to instill in us, particularly as women. "That's not Satan girl, that's just your intuition!"Also, we discovered Mormonism is basically just Mayo Islam- and we will be calling it that from now on. Check out the links below and follow this bad ass! Not only is she an educator, professional at dragging men to filth, but also a musician, author, artist, and absolutely gorgeous human being inside and out. https://www.tiktok.com/@emangetalife?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pchttps://www.instagram.com/emangetalife/?hl=enhttps://www.emangetalife.com/https://www.tiktok.com/@emangotalifeSupport the showhttps://linktr.ee/girlsgonegodless

Skydiving with Jesus in a Baby Bjorn
Send us Fan MailIt's time for part 2 of the Jezzo episode and surprise! You get two episodes this week. We get to hear all about their exciting upcoming project: "Ovary acting": a buddy comedy, musical, feature length film, starring Joel and Mezzo! Self directed, produced, written, and shot on Iphone 6. They teach women how to emotionally regulate themselves through the beauty and power of male friendship and song. This film is actually part of their "BBD does emotional regulation" dvd box set which we learned about in Part 1 of their interview! Please note it is not film grade or standard dvd size. However, we heard they may be releasing a "slightly larger than regular dvd size dvd player" and we are thrilled! It's so rare nowadays to see men telling women how to act, this is exactly the kind of art the world is missing! There is also... some other things!

But we promise, it’ll be entertaining (as long as you aren't easily offended) We dive into everything from merman baptisms in a strip club bath to pulling back the metaphorical foreskin of Jericho. We cover a wide range of topics, some loosely related to religion and others, well… not at all. Christina even gets converted to Christianity! (just so we can immediately deconstruct her) And yes, there’s a part TWO coming and this madness is for from over. Tune back im this Wednesday the 17th for the highly anticipated conclusion episode!Be sure to check out Joel and Mezzo on TikTok, YouTube, and of course their podcast Bad Bible Debates, where they take on religious nonsense with their signature unhinged humor. www.youtube.com/@JoelReadsBible www.youtube.com/@mezzo_wshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bad-bible-debates/id1791206784 Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/girlsgonegodless

So, is God a Gay Witch?
Send us Fan MailIn this magical episode, we fight through some cursed or possibly possessed recording software to conjure up some great examples of how Christianity and witchcraft are pretty goddamn similar. And if the recording seems a little glitchy, just blame God, because we did our best (which obviously is NEVER good enough for that narcissist).We get down to the nitty gritty and ask the burning bush questions like; Why is men’s blood good, women’s blood gross and lamb’s blood as valuable as a firstborn son? Why did they steal all the holidays from the Pagans just to pass them off as their own, yet somehow made them way less cool? And why is a man in a dress allowed to swing a ball of incense around his congregation, but you sage your house after a bad one night stand, and you deserve to be burned at the stake?Join us on this twisted, semi-coherent journey where a father almost sacrifices his son and then in a real plot twist, a different father *actually* sacrifices his son who’s also himself, and maybe a ghost too? Lucky for him, he only had to spend one weekend in a cave possibly getting some intense spa treatments. I mean, how else do you explain that glow? Maybe it was Mary Magdalene’s magic hands? Or was it the microneedling?The bottom line is; psychics are evil but prophets are holy, prayer totally works but manifestation is bullshit, a cross necklace has power, but crystals are just Satan rocks, and David Blane ain’t got shit on Jesus!Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/girlsgonegodless

Not only is he kind and genuine but he's also hilarious and we are bestowing upon him the title of being an honorary Girl Gone Godless!We also tackle some burning questions like: Does God love foreskins or hate them? When is it okay to “unalive” a baby? (According to TikTok Christians, it’s when the baby’s cornered you in an alley with an AK-47.) And is God just a neckbeard chilling in his mom’s sky basement, watching us all suffer? Tune in to find out. It's party in the back and Catholic in the front!

Let's Get Naked with Britt Hartley
Send us Fan MailDon't make it weird! If you’re not already following Britt Hartley, you’re seriously missing out. She’s like a bad ass gps for finding your way through the spiritual world without running into all the outdated and patriarchal bullshit that is brewing in most organized religious institutions. Britt shows us how to capture all the good stuff like meaning, ritual, awe, and community without the creepy myths or mandatory doctrine that usually come with it. Why can’t we build our own church? Why shouldn’t we write our own doctrine, pick our own saints, or just make up our own rules that are based around our core values? Honestly, it shouldn’t be as mind-blowing as it is but apparently, we can have those deep, awe-filled experiences without any gods or weird dudes involved.Turns out, there’s a real science behind “spirituality,” which is a nice surprise especially for us logical atheist types who want that sense of wonder again without having to believe in things that are nonsensical to us. Britt’s brilliant work is everywhere under “No Nonsense Spirituality,” and her book No Nonsense Spirituality: All The Tools, No Faith Required is basically a blueprint for creating your own spiritual toolkit without the dogma and without the woo. We have all basically fallen in love with her and we know you will too! titlesSupport the showhttps://linktr.ee/girlsgonegodless

No Jesus Snakes for Jezebel
Send us Fan MailToday our anonymous guest Jezebel shares her story of growing up with Pentecostal Oneness: a fringe sect of the Pentecostal church where the teachings on "spiritual connections" (aka church sanctioned marital affairs) started with dance and prayer partners and ended with "adultery is totally fine as long as you don't spill your seed in them!" Luckily Jezebel's family left that church early on, but her story continues with an upbringing of strict evangelicalism complete with bible based homeschooling and being isolated from the so called evils of the world... like music with drums in it!

Unholy Hunny
Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we sit down with Cassie Flynn to hear her deconstruction story! After finding initial comfort in a Quaker community, her shift to evangelicalism brought both spiritual highs and disillusionment. An internship at a mega church exposed her to manipulative teachings, eventually prompting her to leave the church altogether. Cassie opens up about her struggles with addiction, mental health, and the grief of losing her parents—all of which sparked a profound shift in her beliefs. Today, she focuses on healing, self-connection, and building supportive communities outside of traditional religion. We explore themes of faith deconstruction, body shame, identity fluidity, and the unknowns of the afterlife. Cassie reminds us that humor can be healing, liberation is possible, and it's okay not to have all the answers.Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/girlsgonegodless
