We kindly light a myth in circling glue, lead thou me on the night is dark and I am far from home.

Thank you Lord one and welcome to another edition of Mormon Stories podcast. I'm your host John D'Alene.

It is March 23rd 2017. I'm tuning in from the basement of my home in North Logan, Utah.

I'm really excited to have with me two people who have made a pretty big impact on Mormonism in a pretty short time.

They are Ryan McKnight and Scott Fosett, two of the main leaders behind Mormon leaks.

Today we are going to be doing sort of three things. We are going to be learning a little bit about Ryan and Scott and their backgrounds and what led to them wanting to do this project.

Then we are going to talk about the project itself, how they did it, what was hard about it, how they structured it, what's been sort of the main reactions to it.

Then we want to take questions and comments from our listeners. We hope that we won't just have sympathetic people who are listening and asking questions and giving comments.

We hope that those who don't like Mormon leaks will also share comments and questions as well and we can have a healthy dialogue.

We are doing this live streamed to Facebook Live so that we can have collaboration. We also have people joined us through Zoom itself.

We are just excited. With that, Ryan McKnight, welcome to Mormon Stories Podcast. Again, welcome back.

Hello, how are you doing? Thanks for inviting us to do this. On your point real quick about the questions. No questions are off limits. If anybody, I mean, keep it reasonable, respectful, but we will take any question no matter how challenging it might be.

Are you a confirmed homosexual?

I'm sure in the eyes of Dalin Oaks I am.

I couldn't resist. That was a joke. That was a more that was actually a Mormon leaks contextual inside joke.
