Welcome to another episode of the The Podunk Polymath Podcast! On this installment of everyone's favorite Southern podcast, I speak with newly minted friend Lyman Smith. We first talk about our first meeting, along with his lovely fiancée and friend of the show Natalie Newell, at the American Atheists Convention 2019 in Cincinnati, and our experiences at the convention, including how his Backpack Old Fashioned became the Official Drink of the American Atheists Convention 2019. We then talk about his approach to parenting as an atheist and freethinker. He mentions the importance of teaching his son empathy and kindness, as well as being honest and forthright when answering difficult questions, including those pertaining to the existence of God. Lyman is a great guy, and this was an enlightening conversation. Hopefully any current or prospective parents who are listening will gain some insight from this interview.

Welcome to another episode of The Podunk Polymath Podcast! This week, I speak about my experiences at the American Atheists Convention 2019. Spoiler alert : It was pretty badass! For the palaver, I facilitated a reunion between Amy, current host of The Ginger Snaps, and Nadya, former co-host of the selfsame show. We had some technical issues in the beginning, but we finally got Nadya in on the fun. We talked about the current state of the podcast, me Nadya explaining why she had to leave the show, and some general topics as well as camaraderie. I was so glad to be able to speak with both of them again. It warmed the cockles of my black heart! Music by Dot Dot Dash, cdbaby.com/cd/dotdotdash

Welcome to another episode of The Triple Po! This week I have on my friend Brigid Fitch from Holy CRAP The VlogCast. We kick things off by talking the upcoming American Atheists Convention in Cincinnati which we will both be attending. We then get into the more serious discussion about her struggles with mental illness, including PTSD and bipolar disorder. We also talk about how resources are sparse for the treatment in the US, including the prohibitive costs for medications and treatment, as well as the utter lack of financial assistance for those who can't afford these vital treatments. Lastly, we speak about the stigma around mental illness still prevalent in this country which is a further impediment towards recognizing mental illness as a critical issue in the US. Some of the things we speak about in this episode may be triggering, so please take that into consideration before listening. Music by Dot Dot Dash, cdbaby.com/cd/dotdotdash
On this exciting episode of The Triple Po, I talk again to my old friend and fellow podcaster Tucker Drake. We talk a bit about the upcoming American Atheists Convention coming up in Cincinnati, and then it's on to juicier fare. We talk about the awesomeness that is AOC, as well as other political topics such as the Democratic presidential field for 2020; the Electoral College; and wherever else our ramblings lead us. I thought it was a great stream of consciousness conversation regarding political topics of the day. I hope y'all agree! Music by Dot Dash, cdbaby.com/cd/dotdotdash

You've seen him sparring with Bill O'Reilly about those blasphemous atheist billboards. You've seen Stephen Colbert refer to him endearingly as "Mr. Atheist Pants," which later became his Twitter handle. This week we speak to David Silverman, the outspoken, loud-and-proud president of American Atheists and author of "Fighting God: An Atheist Manifesto for a Religious World." We discuss the upcoming American Atheists Convention featuring THE Hugh Laurie as keynote speaker, why he endorses an assertive and firebrand approach to his atheist activism, his organization success bringing atheists out of the closet with those famous "You Know It's a Myth" billboards, why criticizing Islam carries so much more baggage than criticizing the other monotheisms (it shouldn't), and a fascinating conversation about David's rejection of "Jewish atheism," based on his controversial but bold assertion that Judaism is just a religion — not an ethnicity, race, or culture. This is a discussion that will continue far beyond just this episode. Check it out.
