Debate Over The Worst Song Ever

September 19, 2025 • 52 secs
Brant boldly declares Baby Shark the worst song ever, claiming it was “designed in a lab and then deployed”—possibly as psychological warfare. Sherri defends humanity against Lamb Chops, "The Song That Never Ends", but even she admits it never reached the same level of global, brain-numbing domination.

Grace, Grit, and the Sound of Redemption: Song Story from Listener Sean

September 8, 2025 • 1 min
Sean shares how an unexpected pregnancy, a powerful word from a stranger, and the grace of God led him from addiction to 13 years of sobriety.

I was a raging alcoholic for many years and I tried to quit numerous times on my own. So, my wife, who had a 5% chance of getting pregnant, got pregnant. Not a good spot for an alcoholic to be in. I went to a meeting, God put this guy in my life, and he said, "That little girl never has to se...

When Ketchup and Smoothies Should've Stayed Distant Friends

August 15, 2025 • 51 secs
So apparently, Heinz and Smoothie King teamed up to create... a ketchup smoothie. Yep. A ketchup smoothie. Because when I think “refreshing post-workout beverage,” I definitely think tomato condiment.

Sherri and I were just trying to figure out who exactly asked for this. Was there a rogue ketchup enthusiast out there blending bottles of Heinz with ice and thinking, “You know what this needs? Corporate backing.”? Look, we love Heinz...

When the Church Nursery Becomes a High Stakes Game

August 14, 2025 • 56 secs
So, Sherri and I are here to talk about the church nursery—you know, that mysterious back room where small humans go in with goldfish crackers and come out with glitter in their hair and someone else’s socks. Anyway, we got on the topic of the little number system they use to alert parents mid-service. You’ve seen it: you're deep in worship, and suddenly—bing!—your kid’s number lights up on the screen like they just won something a...

Distraction is an Enemy of the Human Soul

August 13, 2025 • 50 secs
I know... It’s a bold statement—but one I believe we desperately need to hear. Distraction isn’t just a productivity problem—it’s a spiritual one. We live in a world that thrives on noise, hurry, and endless scrolling. But all that surface-level busyness? It’s not just exhausting. It’s dangerous. It keeps us from what matters most: intimacy with God, real joy, deep relationships, and the quiet clarity of the Spirit’s voice.

Brant & Sherri's Pro Tip: If You’re Robbing a Bank and Dressed as a Tree, Don’t Talk

July 25, 2025 • 1 min
Story out of China where a bank robber decided the best disguise was… to be a tree. It almost worked but somewhere between “photosynthesis” and “please give me the money,” the would-be oak outed himself by talking. The second the “tree” opened its mouth, the bank teller knew something was up—because trees don’t typically make withdrawals.

So let this be a lesson to all aspiring botanic burglars: if you're going to blend in, maybe sk...
