    The Hidden Cost of Mormon Belief: Conditioned From Childhood May 13, 2026
    Show notes

    What if the harm didn’t start with a crisis… but with what you were taught as a child? In this episode of Mormonism Live, we sit down with researcher and clinician Samuel Clemens, PhD, LCSW, to unpack his groundbreaking study on religious trauma among former Latter-day Saints—particularly those who identify as sexual minorities. This isn’t a conversation about people being “offended” or simply losing belief. It’s about something deeper. Clemens’ research reveals that for many, the damage isn’t tied to a single moment—but to years of subtle conditioning. Messages about worthiness, identity, obedience, and belonging begin early… and often shape how individuals see themselves long before they have the language to understand who they are.

    We explore:
    How religious trauma develops over time—not in one event, but through repetition
    Why identity and morality being fused together creates lasting psychological conflict
    The “double bind” many experience: be authentic and risk losing everything, or conform and lose yourself
    The central role of family, belonging, and conditional acceptance
    Why leaving can feel both freeing and devastating at the same time
    This is an honest, nuanced conversation about the real human impact of high-demand religious systems—and what healing can actually look like on the other side.

    If you’ve ever wrestled with these questions, or you’re trying to understand someone who has, this episode offers insight that’s hard to ignore.

    Is Mormonism’s 2nd Anointing No Longer Secret? May 12, 2026
    Show notes

    Tonight on The Mormon Newscast we dive into one of the most secretive and controversial topics in Mormonism: The Second Anointing. Recent photos posted by the LDS Church along with a TikTok video by Mormon apologist Jasmine Rappleye appears to openly discuss and display imagery associated with the Holy of Holies, raising fresh questions about whether the LDS Church is becoming less guarded about its highest temple rites. We discuss the video and what it says about Mormonism’s hidden inner ordinances becoming more public.

    We also cover the disturbing case involving a Mormon couple accused of torturing and killing a child, whether faithful members truly understand how many people are quietly stepping away from the Church, Rebecca Bibliotheca’s hilarious Disney/Temple Square connection being confirmed, the Fairview mayor requesting a reduced temple steeple height as a gesture of goodwill, the Church dedicating 5th Sunday lessons to religious freedom, bishops continuing to write letters in support of CSA defendants, changing attitudes toward LDS women’s careers, Charlie Bird announcing plans to start a family, and an update on President Dallin H. Oaks recovering from hip replacement surgery.

    To explore a deep dive into the 2nd Anointing watch Mormonism Live’s “Mormonism’s Second Anointing: Everything You Wanted To Know !!!” – https://youtube.com/live/A1FNi_eV_Go

    Mormon Bring Knife To Gunfight! RFM: 457 May 10, 2026
    Show notes

    RFM is joined by Kolby Reddish to finish off our analysis of the historic trouncing Bill Reel recently gave to Mormon apologist Robert Gurr! This is one for the record books! My favorite part is Mr. Gurr’s argument for why it is horses went extinct in the Americas. Hint: It has nothing to do with the ice age, and everything to do with hungry Nephites! Hungry, Hungry Nephites!

    Elder Oaks and The LDS Punishment Initiative! May 07, 2026
    Show notes

    This week’s Mormon Newscast centers on what looks like a renewed willingness by Church leadership under Dallin H. Oaks to draw sharper lines and enforce them. Whether it’s the Church’s trademark lawsuit involving John Dehlin or the excommunication of Landon Brophy, such seems to signal a broader shift toward tightening control over both narrative and dissent a shift Elder Oaks requested not too long ago. From there, we hit a range of developing stories across the Mormon landscape. We’ve got an update on Wade Christofferson, a look at how political identity among Latter-day Saints is subtly shifting, and a discussion of the now-infamous “tooth” moment involving Tamara W. Runia.

    We also break down a recent YA devotional message where Elder Stevenson and his wife, Leesa, have us going deeper and deeper into space. We also zoom out to look at bigger cultural and institutional trends: temples continuing to be announced and built even as overall growth shows signs of strain, a noticeable uptick in horror films using Mormon themes as storytelling fuel, and yes, Utah’s beloved “dirty soda” culture suddenly stepping onto the national stage. As always, we connect the dots, ask the hard questions, and try to make sense of what it all means for those still in, those on the edge, and those long gone.

    Mormon Gets Creamed In Debate: RFM: 456 May 03, 2026
    Show notes

    RFM is joined by esteemed co-counsel Kolby Reddish to dissect Jacob Hansen’s recent debate with Allie Beth Stuckey of The Blaze. Strangely, Jacob seems to want to talk about anything other than Mormonism. His efforts to make Mormonism sound like Protestantism grow increasingly bizarre. But Allie is not going to let him get away with his typical Jacob Hansen obfuscation, and neither are we! We are left with the question of why is it that Jacob Hansen wants to defend Mormonism while being completely unwilling to talk about Mormonism itself. You won’t want to miss this one!

    Christofferson Abuse Allegations Grow While LDS Church Targets Mormon Stories Apr 29, 2026
    Show notes

    This week on The Mormon Newscast, we’re covering two major developing stories. First, more alleged victims have come forward in the Wade Christofferson CSA cases, adding new layers to an already disturbing situation. As details emerge, the scope and handling of the allegations are becoming harder to ignore. Second, we take a deeper look at the ongoing trademark dispute involving John Dehlin and the LDS Church. New information sheds light on what’s at stake, why it matters in the broader landscape of Mormon-related content and commentary.

    Other stories we’re following:
    The Church rolls out new names for Young Women’s age groups—a shift that may seem small on the surface, but raises questions about branding, identity, and messaging.
    A BYU professor is at the center of a serious legal situation, prompting renewed scrutiny around institutional response and oversight at Brigham Young University.
    Leaders in King County suggest they may not be required to report child sexual abuse in certain circumstances—an issue that cuts to the heart of moral responsibility vs. legal obligation.
    In Seattle, five LDS meetinghouses have been sold even as a new temple is under construction—raising questions about growth, decline, and the Church’s shifting footprint.
    And lastly Parker Kingston was back in court.

    We break it all down, connect the dots, and give you the context you need to make sense of what’s happening.

    Mormonism’s Mountain Meadows Massacre Apr 23, 2026
    Show notes

    Tonight, one of the darkest chapters in Mormon history—the Mountain Meadows Massacre. This isn’t a surface-level retelling. We walk through what led up to it, how it unfolded, and what happened afterward… and we let the historical record speak for itself. We examine the environment in southern Utah at the time—heightened fear, isolation, and rhetoric that blurred the line between obedience to leaders and loyalty to God. We talk about the Baker–Fancher wagon train, why they were targeted, and how a situation that could have ended peacefully turned into something far worse. We break down the massacre itself—how the militia gained the trust of the emigrants, what happened when they were escorted out under a white flag, and how the attack was carried out. We also cover what followed: the children who were spared and placed into Mormon homes, the removal and redistribution of property, and the long effort to control the narrative. We dig into the aftermath—the oath-like silence described by participants, the blaming of Native Americans, and the later statements by leaders that don’t quite line up with what we now know. We’ll also talk about the monument, its destruction, and the unsettling details surrounding that. This episode isn’t about sensationalism. It’s about understanding how something like this happens—inside a system that believes it is acting under divine authority.

    In this episode:
    * The climate in Utah leading up to 1857
    * Brigham Young’s rhetoric and its impact
    * The Baker–Fancher party and why they were targeted
    * How the massacre unfolded
    * The fate of the child survivors
    * The cover-up and shifting of blame
    * The role of John D. Lee and others
    * The long road to accountability

    Bar Complaint Roundtable: The Prank Heard Round the World: RFM: 454 Apr 21, 2026
    Show notes

    RFM detailed the bar complaints against him in the last episode for playing a Halloween prank on the sister missionaries; how those bar complaints were filed by members of the secret combination Mormon missionary group known as “The Cavalry,” and how those complaints were dismissed by the state bar association. This show will discuss recent developments of that story, particularly how Jaxon Washburn has chosen to thrust himself to the forefront of the controversy by writing and then cross-posting an inflammatory and defamatory blog about the situation. Joining us tonight on the panel are Kolby Reddish, Randall Bell, and possibly some other special guests. Join us, won’t you?
