Straight White American Jesus
This amazing podcast is essential for those who wish to understand how hegemonic forces in the United States of America seek to erase the voices of plurality from dominant cultural discourse. The hosts distill the essence of who, how and why racist christian patriarchy and politics uses shame, fear, scripture and legislation to keep human beings organized in categories indicated by a world view in which white males are privileged by a white male god. The hosts are experts with the academic chops to back up their perspectives, and create an engaging and laid-back, accessible atmosphere for anyone seeking to understand the issues.
No fluff, good stuff
Brad and Dan get right down to business, no shallow chit chat. I started questioning my Christian faith when Trump was elected and this podcast has help me put into words what I could not explain in 2016. Thank you!
FACTS
Soo good, articulate and big facts. Growing up in the church, I really love and needed such podcast.
Fight me!
This podcast is essential listening. ✊🏽
I’ve listened to every episode
Brad and Dan do a great job of incorporating weekly current events into their show in addition to important work of scholars, historians, writers and other experts. I have learned so much from all of the perspectives given on the show.
Nothing but FACTS
Son of an Apostolic minister and college graduate here. This is one of my favorite podcasts considering how deep they dive into the realms of America’s untold history intertwined with white nationalism and American Christianity. Every premise they make is thoroughly researched and well studied.
Simply Fantastic!
Well researched historical perspective of current events through a lens of American Christianity. Thought provoking and informative!
incredible work
This podcast provides so much important information and crucial insights into the conservative evangelical world. Every episode has at least one moment of jaw-dropping truth.
Clarity
The first episode was like listening to a page from my childhood. Thank you for presenting these historical facts for what they are and showing how whether we like it or not we have been influenced by a racist white version of Christianity.
Informative and insightful
I’ve learned a lot from these guys. Love it.
Insightful Podcast
This podcast has helped me to gain insight into so many detailed topics under the umbrella topic of Christian nationalism in America.
Awesome
Way more nuanced and researched than many religion-focused podcasts. Written by people who know evangelical culture both personally and academically.
Facts and perspective
It is rare to find a Christian broadcast that is so well researched and documented. This is one of the best podcasts I have ever listen to. I particularly like the fact that they take issues that are occurring weekly and provide strong historical research and discussion.
Fantastic
Insightful and thought-provoking, always eager to hear each new episode.
Academically Sound
They honestly give evangelicalism more credit than it deserves. They're incredibly kind and reasonable and rational in their criticisms and arguments. The fact that they take that world and its propogandists seriously is more than it deserves. Thank you for providing sane perspectives on a quasi-cult-like world. Y'all are great!
Love it!
I’m a little obsessed with this podcast! It’s perfect for the “ex-evangelical” crowd, especially when so many current events are intertwined with white evangelicalism. It’s a good lens through which to process!
Nuanced and thoughtful
As a former evangelical Christian, it’s been extremely helpful to have voices and minds like these to help me understand the disconnect I see in Jesus and the modern American church. 6/5 keep doing this work 🙏
My Favorite Analysis
I grew up in the Evangelical world and left over a decade ago. SWAJ has been vital to my growth and overall mental/spiritual wellbeing. I learn something in every episode and I love the way they center current events from perspective of white christian nationalism. Unpacking the culture that raised me and being equipped with language that helps me define the things I’ve experience has been hugely empowering. Keep up the great work Brad and Dan!
About time
There are not enough voices to challenge white evangelical supremacists. This podcast is one of those few voices. The analyses provided are deeply and academically sourced. This is crucial work. Listen.
Amazing podcast!!
I love this podcast and learn so many amazing things from these guys!
Spreading Truth
Thank you so much Brad and Dan for providing this very important info regarding Christian Nationalism. Amazing show.
Thoughtful Discussion of Religion and Other Systems of Power at Work in America
The host won’t receive much pushback on his points, but he’s articulate and well researched.
If you have a heart.
Sooooooo gooooooooood. Thanks for your thoughtfulness and your kindness in discussing some of these topics that need to be openly talked about.
