Raised by an abusive stepfather and entrenched in gang life and theft, comedian Shayne Smith carried a heavy burden of trauma and pain. He eventually turned to magic and satanism as a desperate outlet to cope with deep childhood wounds. But the deeper he sank into depravity, the more he needed it to feel anything at all.
Then, everything changed.
In this raw and gripping episode, Shayne joins us to share his rollercoaster story. We also discuss the shocking and tragic killing of Charlie Kirk, and what it reveals about our cultural moment. Together, we explore how to bridge divides with those who don’t believe in us and work toward a culture rooted in compassion, curiosity, and grace.
Shayne’s story will open your eyes to the hidden wounds others carry and challenge you to become a vessel of healing in a broken world.
