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.
One of the must-listen podcasts in my library
These guys have some of the most insightful commentary about Christian nationalism out there.
Love This Podcast !!
Having been immersed in Evangelical culture for most of my life and now recognizing and recovering from so much trauma and racism fro it , finding this podcast was a breath of fresh air! Thank you for doing what you do . I look l forward to listening every chance I get !
Very fair assessment of Christian culture
Definitely nuanced takes on today’s Christianity. The podcast has served a perfect place in my life as I’ve struggled with how I proceed with religion in the face of many disturbing incidents in America. Thank you for dealing with the topics and I look forward more podcast
It all makes sense
Truly one of the best podcasts linking our current moment to threads which have always existed in the strange world of American evangelicalism.
Deep understanding
If you really want to understand American religion and politics...to think deeply about the contexts and origins of the events and phenomena that shape our lives, then Straight White American Jesus is for you. Brad and Dan and their well-chosen guests bring scholarly acumen and analysis to bear in an engaging and accessible way. My favorite podcast.
Thanks

I love this podcast!
I listen to this podcast every week and appreciate the level headed, well researched commentary on politics and current issues. Their “Orange Wave” series is a must listen. Thanks Brad and Dan!!
