This week is a special one! Finally no political talk!!!

We have a great interview with Jon Steingard, former lead singer of Hawk Nelson, & former Evangelical Christian. We discuss his journey out of religion, & what his beliefs are now. We get into his & Cook's old days touring the Christian festival scene, & touch on a whole plethora of subjects that all can be whole episodes in and of themselves. We'll definitely have him back! But for now...enjoy this great discussion!
