This is the Drunk Mormon Podcast! Join us each week as an ex-Mormon and a never-Mormon get drunk and learn about people who never get drunk—Mormons!

The Drunk Mormon Podcast is an absolute gem that I stumbled upon recently, and I have been binge-listening to episodes ever since. The theme music is catchy and sets the tone for the show, which is equal parts informative and hilarious. As someone who was raised in a cult-like environment, it is incredibly validating to hear the hosts discuss the absurdities of certain religious beliefs and practices. This podcast has become my therapy and has helped me process my own experiences.
One of the best aspects of The Drunk Mormon Podcast is how relatable it is, even for someone like me who was not raised in the Mormon faith. The hosts do a remarkable job at explaining and dissecting various aspects of Mormonism, making it accessible to listeners with different backgrounds. Their down-to-earth natures and general respectfulness towards all individuals create a welcoming atmosphere that encourages open dialogue.
While there are many positive aspects of this podcast, one minor drawback is the frequent use of "mmmhmmmm" as a reply during research discussions. It can sometimes feel repetitive or distracting from the flow of conversation. However, this does not significantly detract from the overall quality of the show.
In conclusion, The Drunk Mormon Podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding Mormonism or navigating their own faith transitions. The hosts strike a perfect balance between humor and informative storytelling while treating all subjects with respect. I am grateful for this podcast's existence as it has not only educated me but also provided much-needed validation and laughter along the way.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! We knew if we were gone long enough, we'd have to come back with something special, and... does a paranormal investigation in the oldest house in Manhattan fit the bill? Welcome to The Morris-Jumel Mansion, former residence of folks like George Washington, Aaron Burr, Eliza Jumel, and current residence of a handful of ghosts. At least, that's what we were told, so we strapped on microphones and decided to find out for ourselves. Our full Scooby-Doo gang included: DJB, Lauren, and Ashley, plus our favorite witch Miranda, new friend (and reluctant medium) Angie, and Broadway Hamilton alum Greg Treco. Join us as we join museum staff Charlie and Danielle to turn on the microphones, turn off the lights, and get frickin' spooky... Will you, too, be afraid of cat toys after tonight...? Follow us @DrunkMormonPod or the mansion @morrisjumel

General Conference AND Halloween (the two scariest holidays on the calendar!) are coming up fast and we're looking for help from our podcast family to build some worthy episodes. So we need stories!
