Ep. 146: Brittany Dawn Megaepisode

On this episode, we discuss fitness influencer-turned christian womanhood influencer Brittany Dawn, as well as all of her cons, grifts, flimflams, frauds, and scams. TW: In general we talk about a lot of potentially triggering topics on this show, including but not limited to suicide and mental health, racism, misogyny, PTSD and PTSD symptoms, child abuse, mental, physical, and sexual abuse, and spiritual abuse including guilt, shame, and fear. In most episodes we’ll mention at least a few of these topics, but we try very hard to avoid graphic detail unless it’s relevant to the story we’re telling, and we do our best to give the audience a heads-up before going into detail on any of these topics. This episode contains a huge trigger warning for eating disorders, and we will be talking about numbers, like people’s weight, or calorie numbers, macro counting. Usually I avoid any number talk because it’s a bit of a trigger even for me personally, but it is really necessary to this episode. What I won’t do in this episode, because I never ever do and never will, is discuss other eating disorder behavior beyond just saying extreme calorie restriction; I don’t ever discuss the methods that people use to achieve that kind of restriction because I’ve found that’s always damaging to me, so I feel there’s a high chance it’s damaging to other people too. If you need to skip *all* the fitness influencer, eating disorder stuff, you can jump back in after the break at 43 minutes, where we will be moving on to other scams and grifts and general BS that this person has been involved in. There are also much briefer mentions of police brutality, animal cruelty, and suicide in this episode.

Ep. 143: Alberto Rivera (Part 2)

On Today's second part of a two-part episode, Sadie and Gavi discuss Alberto Rivera, one of Jack Chick's most trusted sources for the conspiracy theories that he proliferated in his comic books. Alberto Rivera alleges a large-scale global conspiracy theory in which the Roman Catholic Church seeks world domination. Turns out, just like everything else in Rivera's life, his conspiracy allegations are stolen. Find out from where on today's episode!Tune in next week for discussion of banned children's toys in fundamentalism!TW: In general we talk about a lot of potentially triggering topics on this show, including but not limited to suicide and mental health, racism, misogyny, PTSD and PTSD symptoms, child abuse, mental, physical, and sexual abuse, and spiritual abuse including guilt, shame, and fear. In most episodes we’ll mention at least a few of these topics, but we try very hard to avoid graphic detail unless it’s relevant to the story we’re telling, and we do our best to give the audience a heads-up before going into detail on any of these topics. This episode contains mention of self-harm and suicidal ideation – as always we’ll try to be as clinical and respectful as possible when discussing this, and I will give you a heads-up before we get there. This episode will also contain discussion of historical sexual abuse in the church, and a large amount of racist or zenophobic antisemitic and/or Islamophobic conspiracy theories. I also want to recognize, any time we talk about the Catholic Church we have to give recognition to the crimes against humanity committed in residential schools. Those are not the topic of our discussion for today, so if that’s a trigger for anyone, we won’t be getting into it in detail. This episode is NOT “The church has never done any crimes” it is simply “The church has not done THESE PARTICULAR crimes because THIS PARTICULAR person is a liar.” This episode is also not meant to be a defense of Catholic theology and doctrine and tradition as *correct* or what *you* should believe, but rather we’re trying to show how it has been misrepresented in order for Chick to fearmonger. An extended, uncensored, and ad-free version of this podcast episode is available to subscribers at Patreon.com/LeavingEdenPodcastWE HAVE NEW MERCH AVAILABLE, AND A NEW MERCH SHOP, at https://leavingedenpodcast.threadless.comStream the Leaving Eden Podcast theme song, Rolling River of Time on Spotify! https://open.spotify.com/artist/6lB7RwSQ9X5gnt1BDNugyS?si=jVhmqFfYRSiruRxekdLgKA.Join our Facebook Discussion group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/edenexodusJoin our subreddit!

On today's episode, Sadie and Gavi review Larson's Book of Rock: For Those Who Listen to the Words and Don't Like What They Hear by Bob Larson.

Ep. 140: Jack Chick and Chick Publications (The Summer of Satan)

Gavi and Sadie begin their SUMMER OF SATAN special episode series discussing the satanic panic! On today's episode, they discuss the life, art, and ministry of Jack Chick, creator of the infamous christian propaganda mini-comic book gospel tracts otherwise known as "Chick Tracts."

Ep. 139: Through Gates Of Splendor: The Leaving Eden Drag Brunch (feat. Dinah House-Fire) (Pride Month / Purity Culture / LGBTQ)

On today's episode, friend of the pod and drag performer extraordinaire Dinah House-Fire joins Sadie and Gavi to talk about Jim and Elizabeth Elliot. Elizabeth is the author of the book "Through Gates of Splendor," which chronicled her husband's death during an ill-advised missions trip to spread christian colonialism in Ecuador. Elizabeth's later writings were instrumental in the advent of purity culture throughout christian evangelicalism. Subsequent examinations of Jim's journals and Elizabeth's personal writings, however, suggest that there is a sadder story, and lead us to as the question, is purity culture just internalized homophobia and repressed sexuality? Tune in to hear our thoughts.

In this episode, Sadie and Gavi are joined by Pastor Noah Hepler, of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Atonement in Philadelphia. Pastor Noah was featured on Season 5 Episode 1 of Netflix's Queer Eye as an openly gay pastor running a queer affirming ministry.
