Hello everyone and welcome to Talk Nurdy. I'm your host Kara Santa Maria. It is Monday November 2nd.

I think I might start saying the date on all of the episodes.

I don't know, give it a try.

This week I am excited to have the chance

to sit down with X Seventh Day Adventist Minister, I guess it's a minister, maybe a pastor, maybe those words are

interchangeable, I'm not sure, X Seventh Day Adventist pastor, perhaps, Ryan Bell, who after spending a year without God as an experiment has continued to spend his life without God.

And I think we can all learn quite a bit from him.

But before we jump into the interview,

I just want to thank a handful of people

who may talk nerdy possible this week.

Over at Patreon, which you can access by going to

W.W. Patreon.com slash talk nerdy.

I want to thank Timothy Glover of McCordsville, Indiana.

I want to thank Phil T-Bare of Point Claire Quebec and I want to

thank Elena Scott, a new contributor from Los Angeles, California.

And thank you to everyone else.

I think right now it's something like 75 contributors

for keeping Talk Nurdy 100% free to download.

I also want to thank those of you who have popped into the

PayPal portal which you can access by visiting kara Santa Maria dot com and

showing your support for the podcast that way. There's a lot of ways you can show your support.

You can visit kara Santa Maria.com and click on the store link or maybe it's the shop
