A few weeks ago we all saw the Holy Kool Aid video with Bart Erhman. It was the longest video I've seen in which he discusses Jesus mythicism. How were those arguments?

I haven’t been to an atheist conference for years although there is the upcoming American Atheist conference in Atlanta next April. Funnily enough if that’s a word, I have a holiday for Good Friday and I can think of nothing better than using that time off to hang out with fellow heathens. Reggie Beloved raised money to help people in Haiti so when he told me he was going to the Faithless Forum I had to listen.

Chris and I talked about beer mostly, and what’s pissing us off this week. Honestly the beer talk was the best part.   Dragon’s Milk (New Holland) https://dragonsmilk.com/ Morning Wood (barrel aged maple/bacon/coffee stout)/Funky Buddha https://funkybuddhabrewery.com/beer/morning-wood/ Imperial stout x -- tart cherry boulevard (stopped in 2015)/Boulevard https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/423/170367/ Day of the departed/Three Taverns https://www.threetavernsbrewery.com/day-of-the-departed, kind of a mexican cake type stout with peppers and  BA Neapolitan milk stout (Saugatuck) https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/11814/225831/   Chris links Follow him on Facebook, the m**********r just won’t shut up Twitter: https://twitter.com/thetriplepo Postmodern Polymath: https://thepostmodernpolymaths.com/

I checked out the GCRR conference on Jesus historicity and reached out to the founder. Dr. Darren Slade was a believer, a minister, and a police officer before becoming an atheist. He’s the President and CEO of the Global Center for Religious Research. This group does conferences (virtual even before Covid), publishes papers and books. He’s the founding editor of the socio-historical examination of religion and ministry (SHERM). He’s the research director for The FaithX Project which consults for churches and tries to help foster community. And of course he is an adjunct professor of humanities at the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design. So we talked about all that, coming out, not getting rich in a prosperity gospel church and how to talk churches into shutting down. This is a very 101 interview as this guy has so much going on that we barely scratched the surface.    Links   Religious Trauma Study: https://www.gcrr.org/religioustrauma   Religious Trauma GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/1f55fcf9   https://www.gcrr.org/ https://www.shermjournal.org/ https://twitter.com/CriticalRation1 https://faithx.net/   Where Eiynah teases with part of a new Woking Up episode:    https://soundcloud.com/politeconversations/woking-up-7-preview-guilt-by-association  

After another long absence, Kory returns to the show. We talk about our ReasonCon meet cute, the ups and downs of the atheist community and her relationship with Chris Mailey. Then we talk about Florida, covid, coming to a new place and finding new love/community. I absolutely butcher some Star Trek references. Of course we talk a bit about 9/11.  Live Read Hasan Piker talks about 9/11 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrdD8IcQ11w

We mainly discussed the post apocalyptic and damn enjoyable trilogy of the Time Shards series. Note that there are some series spoilers starting in the 30 minute or so range of our talk.    David https://www.amazon.com/Time-Shards-Dana-Fredsti-ebook/dp/B07142G1LM/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=david+fitzgerald+time+shards&qid=1630957933&sr=8-1   https://www.amazon.com/David-Fitzgerald/e/B004ASD9M4/ref=dp_byline_cont_pop_ebooks_2   Recovering from religion talk on the evolution of world religions   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcceQyGIUkk&list=PLvixpJ8E9Oxlj_s2Mo0G3_sqa5bl3dZZ6&index=3&fbclid=IwAR1wIKD_Dwgx5OjLNRcV42fsIREXabAoTN5Ro0ERvJAIT6rfeHc2FGyxDmE   I Don’t Speak German episode 92 https://soundcloud.com/user-841528318-482060319/idsg-ep92-the-better-skeptics-project-with-jeff-eaton-and-kristin-rawls

It’s another reunion as Reggie and I talk about Haiti, Afghanistan, being an essential worker during covid and Dolphins football. We wanted to highlight Reggie’s fundraiser to help Haiti after the recent earthquake.

It's me and Chris just shooting the shit for 45ish minutes. You know the drill.

Note that this is the audio from episode 136 of the Postmodern Polymath podcast. Candace Gorham is a licensed medical health counselor and the author of The Ebony Exodus Project and On Death, Dying, and Disbelief. We talked about her own grief leading to writing the book and how nonbelievers can deal with grieving.    Postmodern Polymath on youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAGP9y9qvA7peJCvILn0J8w   Candace’s books: https://www.amazon.com/Candace-R-M-Gorham/e/B00E8VC9F6?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_2&qid=1629327744&sr=8-2   All Hasan Piker, all the time https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fear-malding/id1564531019 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAGP9y9qvA7peJCvILn0J8w
