I just started listening to the podcast. I've known about it for some time. But, I was afraid to listen to it. I don't know if that makes any sense. But, I was. I was raised to be a die hard IFB follower. "Baptist born, baptist bred and when I am dead, I will be...

"I hate these false accusations that are made against people who just don't walk in step." This was a quote I heard on one of the podcasts the other day. The more I listened to some of the episodes, and the more I read the comments...I realized that this is largely...

I’ve been listening to the recovering fundamentalist podcast for quite some time now. I was told about the podcast by a friend who told me he had left a cult in California. Little did I know that I had left the exact same cult when I was 16 all the way across the...

Hi! I’ve been listening to y’all for about six months and wanted to let you know what a blessing your show has been. As the title indicates, I’m a recovering Catholic. I was raised very traditionally Catholic, and in listening to your podcast, I’ve realized how many...
