"I tend to think taking the Lord's name in vain has less to do with a swear or curse moment, but a lot more with having a human agenda that is not good, unjust... and then using the Lord's name to justify it and make it good." In this episode of We Should Know Better, the guys pour a fresh glass of Michter's and traverse through the absurdity of modern culture. After raising a glass to Dolly Parton and mourning Big Bear's beloved bald eagle, they dissect a Homeland Security recruitment video using Isaiah 6:8 and dig into what "taking the Lord's name in vain" truly means beyond just swearing. The conversation heats up as they examine the bad-faith trolling of Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White entering the WNBA draft, the bizarre world of longevity biohacker Bryan Johnson, and whether optimizing every second of your health means forgetting how to actually live. To wrap things up, the crew compares their late-mid-40s skincare routines and tackles long-winded YouTube comments. 00:59 - Intro & In Memoriam for Dolly Parton 07:14 - Delivering Bad News & The Tragedy of Jackie the Bald Eagle 11:45 - When Job Candidates Discover the Podcast 19:15 - DHS Propaganda, Isaiah 6:8, & Weaponizing Scripture 30:43 - What Does Taking the Lord's Name in Vain Actually Mean? 46:42 - Enes Kanter Freedom, Royce White, & WNBA Controversy 01:16:23 - Bryan Johnson, Longevity Obsessions, & Missing the Point of Life 01:27:43 - Skincare Regimens & Red Light Therapy for Men in Their Late 40s 01:40:28 - Reading YouTube Comments & AI Thumbnail Disasters 01:51:52 - Peacock Discoveries & Wrap-Up SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.

Katheryn Krick: Spirit or spectacle? Faith or fraud? Another alliteration I can't think of right now? In this episode of We Should Know Better, the crew gets back into the studio to unpack the wild world of modern church culture and viral internet theology. They kick things off by reviewing the hyper-polished production of South Orange County mega-churches before diving into a viral clip linking a lack of tithing to one's sexual proclivities. The guys also dissect an airplane meltdown involving an end-times street preacher, look critically at the cultish dynamics surrounding self-proclaimed apostle Katheryn Krick, and unpack what true biblical masculinity looks like compared to modern caricature. Finally, things take a grounded, vulnerable turn as they wrestle with unanswered prayers, serious illness, and what it means to hold space for hard questions in faith. 00:02.35 - Welcome Back & Merch Plugs 02:11.07 - Over-Produced Churches & South OC Worship Culture 16:09.17 - Theo-Bros & "If You Don't Tithe You're Gay" Viral Clip 28:27.23 - Airplane Evangelist: Flight Delays, End Times, & Captive Audiences 45:30.54 - Personal Faith Journeys & Relational Evangelism 54:44.11 - Deconstructing Faith Healer Katheryn Krick & Viral Manifestations 01:13:26.51 - Psychosomatic Healing vs. Genuine Spiritual Encounters 01:30:59.34 - David and Jonathan: Ancient Relationships & Modern Interpretation 01:45:39.77 - Re-evaluating Masculinity, Nurturing Traits, and Jesus 01:55:37.42 - Processing Cancer, Unanswered Prayer, and Pushing Back on God SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.

Abuse cover-up at Wheaton College and Lindsey Graham died leading to a thirty-three percent drop in war just kidding I made that last part up. The guys welcome a special four-legged guest—Ranger the pod dog—before diving straight into the chaos of the internet comment section. Things get spicy as they tackle wild online reactions to their controversial takes on Noah’s flood, divine violence, and the Nephilim. Later in the show, the hosts reflect on the passing of Lindsey Graham, unravel the troubling cover-up scandal out of Wheaton College, and dissect the subtle art of soccer flopping and terrible baseball umpires. Grab a drink, stick around through the technical choppiness, and let us know in the comments where we got it wrong! 00:00:30 - Show Intro & Pod Dog Ranger Joins 00:02:09 - Drink Sponsor Ideas & Riverside Technical Issues 00:04:06 - Internet Comments: The Flood & Divine Violence 00:07:22 - Dealing with Blasphemy Accusations & Fundamentalist Energy 00:18:54 - Enthusiast Personalities & Deep Dive Hobbies 00:24:23 - Lindsey Graham's Passing & War Theories 00:29:19 - Wheaton College Controversy & Institutional Cover-ups 00:46:12 - Zach’s Odd Visit to Wheaton 00:50:31 - Institutional Fear vs. Truth 00:58:10 - Sports Talk: The Lakers & Soccer Flopping 00:03:31 - Bad Umpires & John Boy Media SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.

We talk about the Bible verses that changed Rick Warren's mind about women in church leadership positions as well as the feud between him and the Souther Baptist Convention. What happens when you let your wife produce the podcast and you threaten to fire her during the show? Absolute chaos! In this episode, we're joined by special guest producer Lyndsey to break down everything from the marital magic of "chore play" and listener voicemails, to Rick Warren and the Southern Baptist Conventions split over women in church leadership, and why rigid church cultures struggle with nuance. Plus, we take a detour through ancient text interpretations, first-century euphemisms, and what it really feels like to step into a brand new church community after a decade of leading the old one. 00:00 - Meet the Producer: Lyndsey Joins the Show 03:00 - Chore Play: The Secret to Romance? 10:15 - Questions with Quaid & Catching Up with Scott 17:30 - The SBC vs. Saddleback: Rick Warren and Women in Leadership 37:00 - First Vagilonians and Linguistic Rabbit Holes 51:00 - The Brittleness of Deconstruction and Church Transitions 1:05:00 - Spotting Cult Tactics and Managing Nuance SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.

In this episode of We Should Know Better, the guys dive headfirst into a hilariously chaotic mix of viral street culture, heavy theological head-scratchers, and unsolicited physical observations. Zack and Andy break down a bizarre viral video of a street preacher casting quite the extreme "biblical" curse on a dancing Jesus impersonator. They then pivot into a raw, honest conversation about their own insecurities—from Zack’s legendary "missing link" brow ridge to Andy’s sudden realization that his bladder is working overtime. Later, they tackle the mental shift of unexpected inheritance money, debate the controversial new Texas law mandating Bible reading in public schools, and pull up the receipts on Genesis 9 to figure out exactly what happened when Noah got a little too drunk in his tent. Finally, they question whether a lack of modern creativity means the global simulation is simply running out of memory. Pull up a chair, crack a cold IPA, and remember: we should probably know better. 00:00 – Warm Beers & Setting the Curls Free 02:30 – Zack’s "Missing Link" Sun Visor Ridge 05:00 – Testing the South Pacific IPA 08:45 – Reacting to the Street Preacher vs. Dancing Jesus Video 11:45 – Cursing People with Cancer in Jesus’ Name? 13:15 – Our General Disposition on Street Preachers 19:30 – Pouring One Out for LeBron’s Lakers Era (and Melting Hair) 23:00 – Jordan Peterson as Kermit and Miss Piggy 25:40 – The Smell of Sound Dampening Material 27:00 – What Would You Do With a Surprise $50,000? 34:30 – Non-Profits, Free Trips to Hawaii, and Financial Awkwardness 46:30 – Texas Mandates Bible Reading in Public Schools 53:00 – Balancing Faith Integration vs. State Coercion 59:00 – Fact-Checking Genesis: When Noah Got Drunk & Naked 01:05:00 – Did the Flood Actually Fail to Stop Violence? 01:21:00 – Knowing the Heart of God Through Jesus 01:24:00 – Simulation Theory: Did the World Run Out of Memory in the 90s? 01:27:00 – Giving Power to the State Always Bites Back SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.

This leads to a discussion on the possibility that God's love and ability to save may be better than traditionally thought.

In this engaging conversation, Matthew Distefano explores the profound themes of love, morality, and storytelling through the lens of video games like The Last of Us and Red Dead Redemption 2. He wrote a killer book on it called "Saints, Sinners, and Clickers: Love and Loss in The Last of Us". The discussion centers on how these narratives challenge our perceptions of morality, the power of storytelling, and the intersection of faith and culture.
