Summary

Chels and Jace jump into religion this week! This episode was HIGHLY requested. They get down to the nitty gritty & open up about their experiences growing up as active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints aka LDS aka "Mormon". The girls discuss their opinions on the culture that comes along with the church, why it can be hard to open up about religion on social media, and their own personal beliefs and struggles. They also talk about how important love & acceptance is & why it seems easier for Mormons & religious people of other beliefs to judge people within their same religion. Lots of tears this week on a touchy but special episode of WWS!

Hello, hello, hello. Welcome back to what we said podcast guys. We have a controversial

0:14.8

episode coming up. So if you like to have the pot stirred, stay tuned. Just kidding. I hope

0:22.3

that this won't be that. I don't know how to say the word controversial.

0:26.4

controversial. Yeah, controversial. Oh, I said controversial. Is it that? Or is it

0:32.0

controversial? Oh, that's absolutely not right. If you are like a sensitive person and are

0:37.6

just going to get mad about this, don't listen. Like if you have an opinion and like to stand

0:43.1

up for what you believe, don't listen to this. No, I'm kidding. Well, here's the thing.

0:47.1

I've been so nervous to record this episode. I don't know why I've been overly nervous to

0:52.5

record this episode. And it's just because I think everyone has such different views. I

0:57.5

mean, on anything, but sorry, I just looked over. I thought it wasn't recording, but it is.

1:03.5

On anything, but especially religious views and specifically within like the Mormon community,

1:09.4

I think people just have such different views on yeah, modesty and Mormonism and everything.

1:15.3

And so I don't know. I know that my views won't be the same as other peoples, you know,

1:20.7

I guess it just scares me to put it out there into the world. It just opens yourself up for

1:24.9

criticism, honestly. Yeah. So if you haven't guessed by now, what we're talking about today is

1:31.8

religion. So specifically, we have gotten a lot of questions on our Instagram. I know,

1:37.1

JC gets a ton of of questions on her personal Instagram about our religion. We've mentioned

1:43.4

Mormonism before. When we had Tyson on, we kind of talked about it a little bit. But we just

1:49.5

kind of wanted to talk about the Mormon culture because we are from Arizona, which is the towns we

1:58.6

grew up in are pretty Mormon. There's like a lot of LDS kids. So okay, when first of all, I want
