John Dehlin is thinking about bringing Mormon Stories back
I'm your guy there. I sold pest control with one and have known another since he was born.
I like it. A good podcast needs at least 2 voices. You and Moli should play off each other well. Just remember, Dehlin already has already cornered the market on paying for ex-MOTCOJCOLDS podcasts!
"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

I think that’s a large drink, btw. And what does that guy have to do with Dehlin? Legit question.

There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock
Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

I have no idea what the story is behind this report, but every time someone gives a nut kick to Dehlin, an angel gets its wings.
My understanding is that some MoSto affiliated people basically stalked a gay couple (one of the couple members being the old Cosmo guy, Charlie Bird) to see if they really attended church, partook of the sacrament and held callings in the ward. Then MoSto released a podcast or some other report on the findings of the stalking. The LGBT community got up in arms (rightfully so) over the fact someone from their community was being stalked and reported on. Dehlin, in typical fashion, denied knwoledge of it and threw the MoSto affiliated people under the bus....despite the fact that MoSto published the stuff and Dehlin is basically the only compensated employee in the MoSto company (I'm still not sure how they are a 501c3 with Dehlin basically taking over 75% of donations as a salary).
"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

They have become the very thing they accuse The Church of being. Very Scientology and MAGA adjacent.
The only person in my orbit who is a fan of Dehlin is someone who became disaffected with the Church over vaccines. The two things began around the same time.
