Aaron has become a TikTok viral sensation and is currently a working actor in Atlanta, GA. His life changed radically 4 years ago when he both began a journey of sobriety and a journey of acceptance. Aaron struggled for years believing he was a " addict" and did not want to believe that he was because of the fear of that he was taught as a child. Aaron is a great soul and it was a pleasure to talk to him! follow him on TikTok and social media @Aarongoldyboy churchandotherdrugs@gmail.com patreon.com/churchandotherdrugs

Greetings, Congregation! This was an amazing episode for me, as I got to indulge my inner fan-boy and talk to Josh Hagquist from one of my FAVORITE bands, The Beautiful Mistake!

Josh also talks about his faith and how it has changed over the years, and why he know prefers Catholic services. It was an awesome conversation and i'm eternally grateful to Josh for his time! Do yourself a favor and check his band out, and order their newest EP 'You're not broken.

Greetings, Congregation! Whelp, let's see if I get banned by proxy for this one. Dan Smotz comes back on the show to talk about his recent purge from social media. Dan awoke one morning to find out that he and his wife's entire facebook presence had been deleted without warning. Dan and Jed talk about the issue of social media influence, free speech, and unfortunately get a little political as well...and of course, a hefty dose of conspiracy thrown in. churchandotherdrugs@gmail.com patreon.com/churchandotherdrugs

Show notes

Greetings, Congregation! Listen, here's the deal- we all know what time it is when Nate Henry comes on the show. Jed didn't have a scheduled interview, so Jed and Nate just catch up as old buddies do-- and then predictably go WAY off the rails into every rabbit hole you can imagine. So listen and enjoy, or don't and i'll see you next week! Churchandotherdrugs@gmail.com patreon.com/churchandotherdrugs
