Marc Maron’s comedy special, End Times Fun, touches on a very real issue – the way many evangelical Christians view the end of the world. In this clip, which recently went viral on TikTok, Maron breaks down why evangelical end-times beliefs scare him, especially since many of these believers hold political power.

In this episode, Eric and Tia Levings dive deep into this topic, reacting to Maron’s take and discussing Tia’s recent article, Evangelical MAGAs Want an Apocalypse to Wipe Out Unhumans. We explore how end-times theology influences everything from government policy to environmental issues and even personal health choices.

As two ex-fundamentalists, we bring firsthand experience to this conversation, and let’s just say… we have thoughts.

Topics Covered in This Episode:

– Marc Maron’s thoughts on evangelicals and end-times prophecy

– The connection between fundamentalism, politics, and climate denial

– Why some evangelicals want the world to end

– The real-life consequences of end-times theology
