Neal rants for about an hour about religion and other things.  Not sure if you’ll like it, but thought we’d try.  This episode may be more for the unbelieving half of the marriage.  Also, one F-word is dropped, so it is rated PG-13.

Neal and Naomi discuss Naomi’s feelings as a wife and the difficult feelings she copes with as part of this role.  As usual, this episode meanders around, so we hope you enjoy it!

This was a Christmas day 2015 Family Home Evening-style discussion with our five kids.  Aging from 7 – 17, this was an interesting episode to record.  At times the discussion is heart-felt; at other times, it is completely side-tracked.  Having a 7 year old with a 7 year old attention span participate in the podcast … Continue reading Episode 13 – Meet the Winters

Neal and Naomi discuss how Christmas impacts their marriage now that they are unequally yoked.  Fun at first, serious at the end.

In this episode we are joined by Sage and Rachel Turk.  We discuss their exit story from the LDS church, their activism, and several other topics.  Hope you enjoy! p.s.  The quality isn’t as good as I would like, but the message is still delivered.  Apologies.

Neal and Naomi are joined by their oldest daughter to discuss her perspective on being a child in a mixed-belief marriage.  Included in this episode is an essay she wrote discussing her feelings. Sorry for the lateness in posting this episode.  Now that Thanksgiving is over, we should be able to get content out on … Continue reading Episode 10 – On Being a Child in a Mixed Belief Marriage

In this episode we are joined by Infants on Thrones’ own Tom Perry and his wife Kristina.  This was a good discussion.  Special thanks to Tom and Kristina for joining us and for helping to make this episode interesting.

This episode delves into dangerous territory.  Porn, masturbation, and the new LDS policy on children of homosexual parents.  It was tough to record and to listen to while editing and I really don’t know how it will go over.  Perhaps the faithful listeners will lose all respect for Neal and empathize with Naomi; perhaps the … Continue reading Episode 8 – Respect

Neal and Naomi discuss the difficulties of finding a common bond in a relationship (and podcast) based on uncommon beliefs.  This was tough to record.

Neal and Naomi discuss the importance of boundaries and compromise in relation to raising children and also respecting each others’ beliefs.

Neal and Naomi discuss guilt vs. shame, eternal consequences of choices, raising kids despite a mixed belief marriage, and other topics.

Naomi and Neal discuss the importance of supporting each other in their different interests.  Neal is a bit tipsy, so the question arises: can Naomi keep him focused?

Do you have a child going through a faith crisis or transition?  In this episode, we tackle this subject from both a believer’s and former believer’s perspective while interviewing our daughter. Lots of frank discussion will be covered, so brace yourselves!
