The God Pod

Dear Humans, If you’re looking to feel hopeful and seeking signs of empathy, today’s new episode is for you! This week on The God Pod, God and Jesus are joined by bestselling author Brad Meltzer to discuss his new book, Make Magic: The Book of Inspiration You Didn’t Know You Needed! We discuss: How Brad turned a beloved commencement speech he wrote into his new book, and why his message resonates with humans. How he used stories of rejection to inspire his son’s graduating class. Empathy once again comes up in our conversations with the Humans, and Brad explains what the internet is designed to do. His incredible, wide-ranging career: From writing thrillers to writing comics to writing the obituary for the one and only Stan Lee! Why comics have always been “woke,” and Brad traces it back to some of Stan Lee’s earliest comics. Another upcoming book he has in the works about The Beatles, for children! Don’t miss this inspiring, hopeful, and thought episode of The God Pod! Love, God PS - If you enjoy this episode, drop a like on this post, me-dammit!

Dear Humans, Jesus and I sit down with the man who once said, “The question isn’t ‘Is there a God?’ The question is ‘Why do people believe in God?’” That’s right. Penn Jillette is on the God Pod! Not to oversell it, but it might just be the greatest thing you’ll ever witness in your entire life. Seriously. If you’ve ever wanted to watch Penn Jillette mock God to his face…this is your moment. Get 25% off for 1 year Here’s what we got into: Faith and doubt — Penn shares his real thoughts on religion, atheism, and why he respects believers who actually walk the walk. Do Penn and Teller hang out offstage? — You’ll find out. Their dynamic is fascinating and refreshingly un-Hollywood. How they made it big — The unlikely road from street performances to a long-running Vegas residency. They still can’t believe it. Bob Dylan deep cuts — We asked for one favorite. He gave us a whole playlist. It’s delightful. If Bullshit! came back — What would Penn call out now? From conspiracy grifters to political hypocrisy, he’s still on fire. His new novel, Felony Juggler — Coming May 6. Pre-order it now! I hope you enjoy watching this episode as much as we did recording it. Thanks, humans! Love, God

Comedian and commentator Pete Dominick stopped by for a divine check-in, and things got real. He opened up about his work helping veterans and men in crisis. Then he looked Me and Jesus in the eye and asked, “Where were You when I needed You?” And lo, the room got awkward. Pete also shared the daily routines that keep him sane in a collapsing world, and stories from his time hanging with comedy legends like Lewis Black and Artie Lange. The man’s seen some things. And yes, we talked about Donold’s big tariff collapse. Pete saw it coming. A lot of us did. Consider checking out Pete’s show on Substack: Sit Down With Pete!

Dear Humans, Karan Soni once played My assistant on Miracle Workers. Now instead of pretending with Steve Buscemi, he’s talking to the real thing. We talked about his new film, A Nice Indian Boy, and what it means to navigate family, culture, and identity in a country that feels like it's falling apart. We also touched on tariffs, current events, and how anyone is supposed to stay joyful when everything around them is burning. It’s funny. It’s thoughtful. It might be the calmest thing I’ve published all week. Take a breath. Press play.

Dear Humans, Legendary comedian Lewis Black sat down with God (and Jesus) yesterday for a heartwarming, hilarious, and surprisingly spiritual interview. Not to oversell it, but it might just be the greatest thing you’ll ever witness in your entire life. Seriously. If you’ve ever wanted to watch Lewis Black ask God if he’s going to Heaven…this is your moment. In this episode: Lewis Black’s biggest question for God and Jesus now that he's face-to-face with the divine Lewis Black talks to God about getting into Heaven How comedy has evolved (and unraveled) in the age of Trump Tariffs on penguins?!? A much-needed palate cleanser: Lewis’ “heroin sport” and how sports still bring hope Why Lewis is leaning into empathy onstage, and may pivot to a full-blown “empathy act” God and Jesus make Lewis Black laugh! 👉 See Lewis on his standup farewell tour now at LewisBlack.com 🎧 And check out his podcast RantCast, where you can send him a rant to read!

Dear Humans, Today, Jesus and I sit down with social media star, author and Bible scholar Dan McClellan, whose new book The Bible Says So: What We Get Right (and Wrong) About Scripture's Most Controversial Issues drops April 29. Dan breaks down what the Bible really says about hot-button issues like abortion, slavery, lying, and homosexuality…and how scripture often contradicts itself. He also shares how he went from being raised agnostic to becoming a Mormon, and what most people get wrong about Mormonism. If you're skeptical about a Mormon writing a book like this, just wait until you hear what Dan has to say. There are smart, left-leaning folks in every faith tradition, even the ones you wouldn’t expect. Don’t miss The Bible Says So when it hits shelves April 29. Love, God

The richest man on Earth is falling apart. In a recent interview he was very close to tears. Let’s laugh at his pain together! Click Here For Your 20% Off Deal 1. Behold! Musk’s empire is crumbling Elon Musk went on camera and nearly broke down. When asked about Tesla’s struggles, the man who claims to be the smartest person alive suddenly didn’t have any answers. 📉 Tesla stock is in freefall. 🐦 Twitter is still a broken mess. 😭 Even his most devoted fanboys are losing faith. The protests are working. The myth of Musk as an untouchable genius is shattering before our eyes. 2. This Week on The God Pod 🔥 God and Jesus laugh at Trump’s “everything’s computer” remarks while sitting in a Tesla while still hating his guts. 🔥 The real concern from the Tesla stunt: Trump threatening to throw people in prison for protesting Tesla. 🔥 Why SNL’s latest Mike Myers / Elon Musk Cold Open was so amazing. 🔥 Elon unexpectedly got emotional on camera. 🔥 If humans are looking for hope and inspiration, look no further than Bernie’s recent conversation with constituents who are feeling the pain.

Rejoice, for I bring thee tidings of great schadenfreude: Elon Musk hath lost a whole Bill Gates. 1. He Did This To Himself Tesla’s stock hath crashed over 40% since December, wiping out $111 billion of Elon’s fortune. Turns out, investors don’t love it when a CEO ditches his own company to spend his days boosting Nazis and banning journalists. And who smote him most? His best bro Don-old. Trump’s new tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico are wrecking Tesla’s supply chains, and the stock market took one look and said nah. Funny how licking fascist boots always ends in you getting your face stomped. Yet despite losing more money than the entire net worth of Bill Gates, Musk remains the world’s richest idiot. Will he learn? Nay. He shall keep wreaking havoc and pretending he isn’t the dumbest rich guy alive.   Spotted on the London Underground. 2. This Week on The God Pod This week, we were LIVE here on Substack while recording! Huge thanks to everyone who listened in—we can’t wait to see you all again for future live stream events! On today’s episode: 🔥 We react to Donold’s State of the Union and why all this talk about ‘norms’ needs to end (Except for Norm MacDonald—he’s up here in Heaven and keeping us entertained!) 🔥 Donold goes after Canada for no good reason—and history has taught us, Canada doesn’t back down from a fight. 🔥 God offers a crazy idea: What if Dems gasp broke some rules? 🔥 Why it’s ridiculous that Republicans are canceling in-person town halls—because cowards fear their own voters. 🔥 God’s favorite video games right now—because sometimes even the Almighty needs to escape reality. 🔥 Why our flock has grown so quickly over the past few months here at Letters From God. 🎧 Listen now, and join us for the next live recording!

Dear Humans, Another day, another disaster waiting to happen. Donold wants Boeing to rush a new Air Force One—because what could possibly go wrong? Inflation is “back” (according to Donold), people are apparently flipping eggs like real estate, and Sean Duffy is making up more lies about air safety. Oh, and if Jesus came back? Yeah, let’s just say it wouldn’t go well. Let’s get into it. 1. Topics include: The Department of Government Evil (DOGE) Donold wants Boeing to rush a new Air Force One What Donold is really saying when he admits inflation is ‘back’ Are humans are buying up all the eggs just to resell them? What God thinks would happen to his son if he returned to Earth The latest lies Sean Duffy is sharing about air safety How Donold accidentally insulted his Vice President while fawning over Elon

Dear Humans, Sometimes, the universe delivers a moment of pure, unfiltered schadenfreude so powerful that even God and Jesus can’t handle it. This was one of those moments. Elon Musk’s own son obliterated Donold in the Oval Office, proving once and for all that even small children know to tell him to shut up and go away. And we, your benevolent deities, are here to watch it unfold together and laugh our divine asses off. 1. Even a Toddler Can See Through Donold’s BS Baby X (or, as we prefer, Elon’s son) had a hot mic moment of the century. "Shut up, go away." – A perfect summary of how the world feels about Donold. Donold, of course, just stood there awkwardly, because he’s not used to hearing the truth. The fact that this happened in the Oval Office makes it even funnier. Listen to today's episode right now!

Dear Humans, It’s only been 17 days since Tangerine Palpatine somehow returned, and the United States is in a full-blown crisis. Planes are dropping from the sky, Donold wants to build a casino in Gaza, and a foreign billionaire is the shadow president. But take heart! We’re looking to the helpers. 1. People Fight Back Against President Musk We watch some powerful and hilarious moments from Democrats dissing the shit out of Felon Musk as they protest at the Treasury building. Watch us laugh as Ayanna Presley calls Elon a “Nazi nepo baby.” What happened with Trump’s trade war (he lost lol) Is it even safe to fly anymore? We discuss the dystopian fantasies of the tech broligarchy How to keep fighting back, dammit!   While the topics are serious, we promise you’ll be entertained and informed as we discuss them.

Dear Humans, While it may feel like an eternity, it’s only been TEN DAYS since America’s worst President returned to the White House. It’s become clear that you all died in 2016. And yes, this is Hell. As creators of the Universe, we can exclusively confirm the answers to all of the questions you’ve been pondering over the last few days. 1. Trump Supporters Getting Fired Or Deported We expose how Donold’s very expensive and cruel racism managed to raise coffee prices. God attacks the racist masculinity complex and defines what it really means to be a man. People who voted for Trump are now tragically being either fired or deported. In light of Trump renaming the Gulf of Mexico, God has a new, official name for the United States of America and Texas. And we wrap with some uplifting news… because we have to have things to look forward to for this planet!

We’re risking everything to stand against him and his goons, bringing truth and laughter to the fight. Your support doesn’t just keep this radical leftist podcast alive—it’s a stand for resistance, survival, and the freedom to call out miserable pricks like him. "I've always enjoyed your FB posts.

Dear Humans, Jesus was having a great Thanksgiving weekend with Mary and Joseph - not to mention seeing Wicked with Judas - until he learned that Joe Biden had pardoned his son Hunter. This and more are discussed on today’s new episode of The God Pod! Watch to hear what we think of Joe’s pardon, what Jesus thought of Wicked, how God celebrated Thanksgiving, and how corporate media has unfairly covered the economy. While we’re on the subject of corporate media coverage, it will shock no one that to learn that yesterday, the NY Times ran SIX stories on Joe Biden pardoning his son…and only ONE on Trump promising to weaponize the FBI to go after anyone he considers his political enemy, such as yours truly. One way to fight the outdated, unfair media is to support leftist newsletters and podcasts like ours. Establishment media has fallen to billionaire control! Support independent media!!

Dear Humans, The other day Captain Dipshit said in an interview that he won’t run again in 2028 if he loses this election. He would be 82 or 83 at the time. "No, I don't. I think ... that will be it. I don't see that at all," said The Demented One, when asked if he would run again in 4 years if he loses this year. Of course, he said in 2020 that if he lost that year, we would never see or hear from him again. And sadly, that was not true. He never shuts the fuck up. He never goes away. Do you believe him? Or is he full of shit? Am I insane for asking that? Because that’s what JESUS says in our latest episode. I still can’t believe his answer. Halloween’s around the corner, would the Republicans run his corpse if they could? Would they clone him? Robo-Donald? Zombie Donald?? Cyborg-Vampire Donald?!? We already have racist psychopath Donald…although I assume all Donald retreads would have that. Anyway, give the new episode of the God Pod in the video above a little looksie. Jesus and I recap what happened in the last week and somehow find ways to make each other laugh.

Dear Donald Trump Jr., I see thou art whining about having to explain to children that a shooter almost killed thy father. Now you know how it feels to be a parent sending their kids to public schools in the USA on any given day. Thou shalt not complain about how unsafe it is living in America. Your father was the president for 4 years. What did he get done? Nothing. He literally people to “get over it” the day after a mass shooting in Iowa. Human life is meaningless to him. Thou shalt not complain about how unsafe it is as you dad’s cult rallies. He has been stirring up a hive of insane bees for 9 long years now. Did thou really thinkest the killer bees would never sting thee? Thou shalt not blame Democrats for two registered Republicans trying to take out your dad in the last two months. Both assassins were registered as Republicans. This most recent one even voted for thy father in 2016! It is not the fault of Democrats, who have always condemned violence and expressed gratitude that Donald is okay. It is the fault of Republicans, who see no problem in encouraging others to commit acts of violence, as your father did on January 6, 2021. As he did last week against Haitian immigrants. As he always does. Hast thou not ever studied history? Being a fascist leader isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Thou might want to read to the end of what happened to Adolph Hitler in World War 2. Those who live by the sword, die by the sword. Those who live by the violent rhetoric, die by their own violent rhetoric. Those who stand in the way of gun control, shall see their own family members die by guns not being controlled. Here endeth the lesson. THE LORD HAS SPOKEN! PS - Oh also, Jesus and I talked about everything that’s happened in the last week in this week’s episode. It’s been a lot.

Dear Humans, Lo, last night was wonderful. It was the long waited for comeuppance that Donold so richly deserved. It was the smiting we all needed to watch! Thank you to everyone who joined our live chat! Jesus and I had so much fun hanging out with you! It was so nice having our live chat locked to paid subscribers so we could enjoy it without fear of having any trolls there. After the debate, loser Donold went to the spin room, a sure sign that he knew he had just been destroyed. Every single channel was praising Kamala’s performance and utterly aghast at the things Donold said. Except for Fox News of course, which merely complained that ABC did something called ‘fact-checking.’ His supporters are now vowing to never watch ABC or Disney ever again.

Dear Humans, Earlier this week, Jesus and I had the rare opportunity to converse with Project 2025 expert Andra Watkins, who doth cover Project 2025 every single day on her Substack, “How Project 2025 Will Ruin YOUR Life.” Verily, we quickly discovered that Andra is exceedingly cool and fun, and doth enjoy cursing as much as God. She is delightful and brilliant, and we didst have a blast hanging out with her. In addition to doing the Lord’s work in educating the world on Project 2025, Andra is a cherished member of the God community. I oft see her in our comments and restacking our posts, and if there be one thing God still enjoyeth, it’s that little hit of dopamine from likes, comments, and shares. This is because God is like unto Tinkerbell and doth require thy claps to continue to exist. “I like to be liked. I enjoy being liked. I have to be liked, but it's not like this compulsive need to be liked, like my need to be praised.” - Michael Scott, The Office Shoot…lost my train of thought.

Watch the video! Dear Humans, I never could have imagined how emotional the past few days would make me. I have cried more tears of joy, hope, and pride than I can remember. For the first time in a long time, I am filled with hope for the future. Joe Biden's decision to step down wasn’t just a brilliant chess move; it was a symbolic passing of the torch from one generation to the next. And all the next generation wants to do is save the world. They have been champing at the bit for a while. I haven’t been this excited about a candidate since 2008. Kamala Harris stepping up and shining in her new role is truly inspiring. Watching her rise to the occasion fills me with immense pride and excitement for what lies ahead. According to new polls today, Kamala is already beating Trump in the polls by 2 points, and she has barely just begun! Of course, we couldn’t help but laugh at the Republicans’ feeble attempts to criticize her. Their main complaint? They don’t like her laugh. It’s comical how they grasp at plastic straws. Meanwhile, Trump is sulking over the money he wasted attacking Biden. HAHAHAHA! Trump attacked the Capitol to cling to power, while Biden voluntarily stepped down for the greater good. This concept of giving up power makes no sense to fascists, it’s as foreign to them as love. In this moment of transition and hope, let’s embrace the future with open hearts and minds. Together, we can rally around Kamala and defeat the power of Trumpian fascism forever. With hope and love, God and Jesus

Dear Humans, Today Jesus and I sit-down with Johnny Palmadessa, a sharp young Democratic Strategist who found himself in the thick of chaos at the Trump campaign rally where a mass shooting occurred on Saturday. One innocent bystander lost their life, and Donald came within 2 inches bullet going through his brain. Johnny shares his firsthand account of the event. Jesus and I tried to wrap our minds around it, and let me tell you, it's not easy processing this kind of madness. Johnny's story is a sobering reminder of the real consequences of divisive rhetoric. It’s a wake-up call, a cosmic nudge, if you will, to re-evaluate who you’re supporting and why. Who will attract more chaos like a magnet in the future? Who will work to calm things down? So, do yourselves a favor and watch the full interview. Trust me, it's worth your time. You'll hear Johnny’s harrowing experience, and maybe, just maybe, you'll come away with a clearer understanding of the gravity of the situation. Plus, Jesus and I throw in some of our classic banter to keep things light. You won't want to miss it.

Dear Human Being reading this, It’s me, God, and boy, do we have a divine dispatch for you today! We just recorded a brand new episode of The God Pod, and you’re not gonna want to miss this one. We dug into some juicy topics that are hotter than hell's furnace, so grab your popcorn and buckle up. First up, we tackled the question that's been on everyone's mind: Who exactly is trying to push Biden out? Surprise, surprise—it's the millionaires and billionaires pulling the strings. The regular folks? They’re still supporting him. The real puppet masters here are the wealthy elites, and we're exposing their game. Then, we dove into something Ted Lieu mentioned that’s flying under the radar: the Epstein files. Yeah, you heard that right. Lieu said, “Something I've heard that doesn't seem to be getting covered is the Epstein files ... Donald Trump is all over this ... y'all might want to look at that.” The #TrumpPedoFiles should be the hottest hashtag right now. And if that wasn’t enough, MSNBC played a side-by-side clip of President Biden speaking at the NATO summit and Donald Trump’s unhinged rally from last night. Let me tell you, it was like watching a Shakespearean actor next to a guy screaming on a street corner. Biden’s all about diplomacy and coherence, while Trump’s rambling about airports and mothers helplessly watching their kids overdose. Seriously, what alternate reality is this guy living in? Speaking of Trump’s rallies, his latest performance in Doral was a doozy. He goes on about how “Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing and hosp--lee. And we will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms, screaming, ‘What can I do? What can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’” And don't get me started on his rant about dirty, crowded airports. Someone really needs to give this guy a reality check. So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the latest episode and get the full scoop. Celebrate with Us: We just hit a milestone—over 500 paid subscribers!

Hey there, you beautiful mortals! It’s me, God, back with another episode of The God Pod. This time, Jesus and I are tearing apart Project 2025, that insane conservative plan to turn the USA into Gilead. First up, I go off on how these utter douchebags want to centralize power and roll back rights. Seriously, it’s like they want to drag us all back to the Dark Ages….and the Dark Ages sucked! Jesus jumps in to rip apart Trump’s lies. He’s pissed, folks, and rightfully so. These idiots would melt the polar ice caps and call it a hot tub party. And don’t get me started on their social security “reforms.” Raising the retirement age and cutting benefits? That’s some seventh circle of hell kind of crap. Stand up against these draconian policies with all the might you can muster.

Dear Americans, As the Almighty LORD THY GOD, I’ve watched over humanity for thousands of years. I’ve seen the evolution of societies, the rise and fall of empires, and the ebb and flow of human rights. Today, I’m frigging furious over Alabama Senator Katie Britt’s proposal for the ‘MOMS’ act, which OF COURSE she says would help moms, but in fact would create a federal database of pregnant women. And that is terrifying. This dystopian database not only infringes on personal freedoms but paves the way for a ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ future. Once created, anytime a woman gets pregnant, it would be one step away from Republicans forcing every pregnant woman to sign up for this database. They would be force-fed pro-life propaganda and denied all access to any information even considering the option for abortion. What’s next? GPS collar trackers to put on their necks to make sure they don’t try to flee to a state that offers abortion access? I can just hear them now, “These GPS, or GOD positioning system trackers, will keep all babies safe from baby-eating atheists.” Set against the backdrop of a second Trump presidency, and the onslaught of Project 2025, there is no question that Republicans are viewing “The Handmaid’s Tale” not as a work of fiction, but as a guide for how to form the future. Did this proposal set off alarm bells across the political spectrum? Was it being covered on all major news networks? I didn’t see anything about it except for what I saw online. Oh, I’m sure it was mentioned on some broadcasts, but sparingly if at all. No time for any of that while they’re busy obsessing about other things. BUT GOD SAW IT. The mere suggestion of such a database should be driving everyone in the country who believes in personal freedom, privacy, and public health? …absolutely insane. I implore you to stand with me against this measure. Spread the word about what the Republicans are trying to do. It’s not enough for them to take away a woman’s right to choose. They will never stop reaching for more. They won’t stop until every woman has an implant that tracks their physical location at all times. Thou shalt not create a federal database of pregnant women, for it is an affront to the sanctity of personal autonomy and the essence of human dignity. God https://thegodpod.substack.com/
