🥴 Is it spiritual… or just skipping lunch? In this episode, Nate and Pastor Joseph break down fasting—not the cute, curated version, but the real, biblical one. From juice cleanses disguised as devotionals to guilt-fueled church fasts, they tackle the confusion, comedy, and convictions around how modern Christians view this ancient practice. Whether you’ve fasted out of faith, peer pressure, or forgot to eat… this episode unpacks what Jesus actually meant—and what we’ve made it mean. With their signature wit and unfiltered honesty, the guys cover: • What fasting isn’t (spoiler: a diet plan) • Why “just pray more” isn’t the answer • The tension between spiritual discipline and burnout • And the hilarious, awkward pressure of public fasts This is not your average sermon recap. It’s the convo we all wish our small group would have—smart, sarcastic, and deeply honest. ⸻ 🎧 Audio available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud & more 📹 Full video episode: https://youtu.be/X1qcbG6g4A8 💻 Website: https://wheniheardthispodcast.com/link-in-bio/ 📲 Follow us: Locals + X → @wheniheardthis Instagram + Facebook → @wheniheardthispodcast ⸻ 💬 Like what you hear? 👉 Follow us here 🔔 👍 Like the episode 📤 Share it with your favorite overthinkers 🗨️ And drop your hot takes in the comments ⸻ #ChristianPodcast #FastingInFaith #SpiritualGrowth #ChurchHumor #NateAndPastorJoseph #FaithUnfiltered

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
