This episode rounds out a trilogy of episodes we did in a marathon recording session with Amanda monopolizing the mic most of the time. In this episode, we dive into a couple of topics that are not something we would normally talk about but seemed to really grab her attention. We talk about the life of paranormal investigator Lorraine Warren who recently died. We also talk about a fraternity that had had such a sordid history with sexual assault and all-around bad behavior that they eventually shut themselves down.

Amanda has decided to share a very personal story of the time she needed an abortion. Chad just tags along for the ride for most of this episode but decides to share the story of getting a vasectomy since it is the closest thing he has to compare. Trigger warning: We probably share way too many details in our stories on this one. But it helps really paint the picture.

After a month long hiatus, we are finally back. We jump right in to the latest news that has come up in the past week. This includes Karen Pence’s new job at an anti-LGBT Christian School and the Buzzfeed article about Micheal Cohen saying he was directed to lie to Congress. We also dig in to the controversy surrounding some students in MAGA hats and a Native American Veteran at the Lincoln Memorial. https://www.businessinsider.com/gofundme-refunding-donations-build-the-wall-fundraiser-2019-1 https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/lady-gaga-rips-mike-karen-015425548.html https://thelibertarianrepublic.com/you-got-duped-into-being-outraged-this-wasnt-that-bad Twitter: @SecularPodcast @TSPChad Email: TheSecularPerspective@gmail.com Facebook: facebook.com/thesecularperspective Tumblr: http://thesecularperspective.tumblr.com/ Episode Index Website: TheSecularPerspective.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/thesecularperspective TeePublic: http://tee.pub/lic/dq5I2_9pamk Theme Music Provided By: http://www.jewelbeat.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPu9jawLiiCqWmnGNYC9ivA |

Some far right wingers in the EU are boycotting Toblerone because of Islamophobia. We have discovered that there is a Jewish Santa Claus running around out there. We also discuss the disastrous funeral in Michigan that was ruined by a former coach and the pastor. Salt Bae is put into The Last Supper and people are arrested for it. Finally someone wants to melt purity rings to make a vagina statue. We wrap up with a discussion about where the new year will take us. We will be off for the next couple of weeks while Chad wraps up his schooling and Amanda goes on vacation.

At least for a little while churches are going to be taxed because the Trump administration wasn't smart enough to check for loopholes in their new tax code.

There is now a small documentary about that on tv. Finally, there is another “White Civil Rights” Rally planned for August in Washington DC.
