Description

A podcast about nothing and everything at the same time but through the lens of active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We talk society, culture, politics, dating (cuz I'm a loser single with loser single friends) and any other issues that come to mind. My hope is that the sentiments can resonate, and the gospel can come across as fulfilling, relatable and not cheesy. Also, I can't help myself but throw in jaded BYU sports takes on a regular basis.

2023/08/30
On the first ever video episode for Latter-day Takes, Andrew Young joins the podcast to talk about his experiences at Dreamworks and how there is an open agenda by the studios (Disney, Pixar, etc.) to "social engineer" children to think a certain way.

2023/08/10
On today’s episode we are joined by recurring guests Casey Sato and Johns Stevens. We go through four rounds of drafting from three categories: Celebrity, Athlete and General Authority. But here’s the catch: they all have to have “Utah ties.” We explain it all in the episode and have a riot going through our lists of why we pick who we pick. Suffice it to say some of us didn’t consider team chemistry in the process.

Then Harper is joined by BYU professors Tom Robinson and Robert Walz that started a dating podcast called "It's Just Dinner" where they explore the nuances of dating for the younger generations. It was an entertaining conversation to say the least. Enjoy!
