Summary

Please Subscribe, rate, and review. We’d appreciate it. Bonnie fills Karen in on Jerry Falwell Jr., and the news that something is afoot in his world. The players are a pool boy, Jerry, Jerry’s wife, Michael Cohen and his plaid jacket, and Tom Arnold. Of course, Trump always shows up in anything we discuss when it comes to sketchy “Christians.” Falwell has the sanpaku, an eyeball thing Bonnie is obsessed with. Supposedly, he’s either an addict or crazzzzy. The story’s still coming out, but there are some revealing pictures of Jerry Falwell Jr.’s wife, and also a friendship with the pool boy, who went on vacations with them. But it doesn’t stop there! Falwell invested 1.8 Million dollars in the SoBE hostel in Miami Beach that the pool boy started. Could this be why Falwell went from not supporting Trump for president to being all-in and making sure the evangelicals did, too? Enjoy a romp through this den of vice that is the Falwell hostel. We also read a letter from Sara, who found herself in a cult when she attended a Pentecostal Bible college in Minnesota. It includes pie. Various shout outs: Southern Fried Crime Podcast Twitter of Ghostwriter Tony Schwartz for Trump’s Art of the Deal iTunes Spotify iHeartRadio Podbean Stitcher

0:40.2	Bonnie and I grew up together, knowing each other since when her mother wheeled her in a stroller down to our house when we just moved in to a house in Florida when I was one years old. And we've used humor all our lives to entertain ourselves, make us feel more
0:46.3	comfortable in our assigned space in elementary of the uncool girls, which there were three of us.
0:55.7	And even when we went to college together for a brief time, we just used humor to get through things.
1:03.5	And it's definitely been important now that we've left evangelical Christianity, which was a huge part of our identity.
1:12.3	Yours more than mine. Correct. I stayed in 10 years longer than she did, and I became a
1:18.7	missionary, but all in all, once you leave that, you're leaving a whole community,
1:26.0	events that are programmed into three, four times a week.
1:31.1	And I enjoyed R-rated movies.
1:33.6	So while you were at church.
1:36.6	That's right.
1:37.9	Oh yeah.
1:38.4	We went over the edge.
1:39.8	I even had some swisher sweets right when I left Christianity.

1:47.3	Those are cigars.
