Weird Religion is a podcast for people who think religion is weird but love it anyway. Your hosts, Leah Payne and Brian Doak, are both professors, authors, and pop culture aficionados, whose interests range from archaeology and history and linguistics to LARPing and The Walking Dead. Episodes tackle some piece of media highlighting the wonderful weirdness of religious experience—a documentary, a television show, a Twitter scandal—and use that as a "thread" on which to hang reflections on a wide variety of topics. Cults. The perils of fame within the evangelical world. Church attendance. Atheism. Gamer communities. Millennials and avocado toast. It's all here.

You had me at Christian hair metal
I listened to Leah Payne discuss Tammy Faye on the Quick to Listen Podcast. I shared that podcast with my daughter and son-in-law ( both George Fox Alum) who in turned shared this pod cast with me. These are my people. From Cobra Kai, Popeye and Christian Hair Metal to authenticity of ancient writings, I feel understood. Many thanks!

Intelligent Conversation
Just stumbled across this podcast after hearing Leah interviewed on Christianity Today’s podcast. Love the intelligent conversation from two deeply thinking Christians who bring their thoughtfulness to current and mundane cultural happenings.

Not for me.
This is done by by ppl who like to take a mocking tone to look at others under the guise of “see what these idiots believe, so quaint.” Their superiority complex and belief that they are right and we the uneducated need their knowledge is too much for my dumb brain to take. I’m an atheist so they did not in any way offend my beliefs . Their self-satisfaction is just too much, the smugness alone is why ppl can’t just have civil discussions and disagree, you talk down to ppl who don’t agree with you. Was really excited for this because I love to learn, but this is just rude. I just find your attitudes so off putting, I can’t listen.

Best religion and pop culture podcast!
The only thing I don’t like about this podcast is that there isn’t an episode every day! The hosts are really fun and knowledgeable and every episode is a delight. 10 stars!

Simultaneously thought provoking and downright hilarious!
Weird Religion is downright interesting! It is somehow deep and causes me to the laugh out loud at the same time. 🧐🤯🤣.

Fun but not a waste of time
My favorite podcasts involve two knowledgeable people chatting about subjects I care about in a way that makes me feel a part of the conversation. The timing couldn't be better for a show that discusses things that matter without feeling heavy and difficult.

Weird Religion, Good Podcast
Lots of podcasts are running pop culture commentary, but I haven't heard anything that brings this level of expertise in ancient religions and religious innovation (!) to the table. Plus it's full of jokes. Good jokes, too. And some bad ones. But you know, good ones. I started with the CULT and AFTERLIFE episodes, which are both fantastic. So get your smarts. Get your giggles. Get some Weird Religion in your ears/brain!

My favorite podcast!
This is currently my favorite podcast! It’s got it all—humor, pop culture, politics, and religion! I recommend it, even if you don’t consider yourself religious. It covers a lot of the weird things that happen in religion and is super refreshing and engaging. The hosts know what they are talking about but make it easy for anyone to understand. I’ve recommended it to several of my friends and they all love it (Christians and non-Christians alike). I can’t wait to get more content!

Hooked on Weird Religion
I am not usually a podcast listener because I have a short commute to work, but I have to say that I am hooked on Weird Religion! The conversation is engaging from the moment you hear Leah and Brian’s voice. They seamlessly play off of each other in fun and quirky way, that actually isn’t weird, like the title suggests but fun and smart. This is the perfect mashup for TV lovers who also love biblical theology.

entertaining and substantive
1) Know what they're talking about; 2) entertaining and fun to listen to; 3) have time to make a podcast. Out of the world of academia, you're lucky to find podcasters who could deliver two of these; Brian and Leah seem to manage all three. The first season makes for fun listening that is guilt-free because of its substance. Hoping for a season two.

Exactly what I've been looking for!
I love watching TV shows -- Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, Mad Men, Black Mirror, The Twilight Zone -- the list goes on and on. The best part about these amazing shows are the questions that they force their viewers to consider, like "Should morals be dependent on a situation? (i.e. a zombie apocalypse)", "Are people actually bad, or are they just victims of circumstance?", or "What does it really mean to be living/dead?" Problem is, I'm not smart enough (nor do I have the time) to really dig into these questions by myself -- that's where The Weird Religion Podcast absolutely rocks it. The hosts are experts in their academic fields, and provide the perfect combination of really deep, intellectual discussion and light-hearted silliness. They love these shows as much as I do, and that makes it all the more enjoyable to listen them get passionate about the same episode moments. Check this out and become a Weirdo too!

So fun!!!
Why is it that religion is the thing you aren’t allowed to talk about at a dinner party? There’s nothing more interesting! Plus, it’s inescapable even in modern culture - which is what I love about this podcast - two actually real life super smart people talking about the intersection religion and pop culture (among other things) in a super approachable way... I want to enter the conversation every time I listen... Great work Brian and Leah! I haven’t found anything else like this out there, except for maybe the liturgist podcast or the bad christian podcast, but both of those fail to do what you guys have captured here. Super fun :)

Great commentary from two people who actually know what they’re talking about. If you want to learn about religion and be entertained, listen to these two.

- 102 THE CONSULTANT (does Jesus look at you with compassion...or anger!)When you put religion on TV, you have to get religion consultants. Why even bother being accurate? Does Jesus look at someone to be healed with compassion—or anger? We end with a conversation about the term “minoritized” (vs. “minority”).

- 101 THE DECAPITATED (the Wind tells me I'm a ghost; Tucker says Trump is “demonic”)This is possibly the weirdest religious moment of the year so far: Buried within a legal brief about an election fraud scandal are the contents of an email someone sent to Sidney Powell, one of Trump’s lawyers, in 2020.

- 097 THE REVIVAL (examining debate about the "revival" at Asbury University)In February of 2023 students at Asbury University—a Christian college in Kentucky—started a revival, which has gone on for weeks (the “public” phase of the revival ended around Feb. 19th). Professional revival seekers flocked in to participate. We explain what a “revival” is and talk about how observers are thinking about the pros and cons of spiritual revival on this particular college campus.
