Another podcast recommendation!


Something else to put in your ears, y’all! You Made it Weird is the podcast of comedian Pete Holmes, who you may know from his brief stint as a talk show host on TBS or from his Badman videos, like this one:

His podcast which, despite consistently being one of the longest in my queue, never gets boring. In each episode, Pete and a guest bounce from light topics (like why all bars don’t store all their liquor in the freezer) to much heavier ones (like what the guest believes happens when we die).

This week, Pete talks to Fr. Richard Rohr, a Fransiscan priest and expert in Mysticism who has authored many books on spirituality. Coming in at just under two hours, the episode covers a lot of topics about religion in a way that is very accessible and accepting. It is a really fascinating podcast, and I highly recommend you listen to it here.
