  • Comedian Brent Terhune Mocks MAGA With His Hilarious 'Alpha Male' Character
    Jun 24 2025

    Dear Humans,

    Get ready to laugh with Jesus and Me, because today we’re joined by hilarious friend of ours, comedian Brent Terhune!

    We discuss:

    • Brent’s incredible videos that screw with MAGA and his plans for the forthcoming Civil War.

    • Jay Leno’s impressive stand up skills.

    • Comedy club crowds want to laugh again, and Brent delivers both politics and personal stories.

    • Alex Jones = Vince McMahon of conspiracy theories. A dangerous asshole, but undeniably theatrical.

    • Brent’s love for horror movies, why he sees them as an escape from reality.

    • What Brent and Jesus have been reading lately (And what closed captions God has read lately).

    Don’t miss Brent’s podcast They’re Coming to Get You, and be sure to catch him on tour if he comes to an area near you!

  • Andrew Zimmern Talks to God About How to Solve America's Food Issues
    Jun 18 2025

    Dear Humans,

    Jesus and I had the pleasure of being joined by a human who brings you joy through his food and his insights: Chef Andrew Zimmern!

    As the 4th of July holiday approaches for Americans, Andrew will be hosting Tastemade’s 2025 Grill Week, kicking off June 30th. Don’t miss it!

    We were floored by Andrew’s insight to the state of the world, and his solutions for solving hunger. Did you know childhood hunger could be solved in 6 weeks?!

    We discuss:

    • The best animal God has ever created, according to Andrew

    • Andrew’s thoughts on the state of Donold’s administration, particularly Pete Hegseth.

    • The relatively low cost of solving childhood hunger, and how fast this epidemic could be resolved in America.

    • How he thinks America can become a greater country (It doesn’t involve just getting rid of Trump)

    • How we can solve the food issues in your country, and what he wishes Biden did differently.

    May 6 2025

    Dear Humans,

    Will America… make it? On today’s episode of The God Pod, comedian and co-star of MAX’s Have I Got News For You Michael Ian Black joins God and Jesus to discuss politics, his career, and more with his signature dry humor!

    Our chat with Michael Ian Black picks up halfway through our time with him because we were having some internet issues, but once things worked correctly, our interview with him was a blast!

    Michael Ian Black:

    • Wonders why the Pope didn’t die when he and his wife were visiting, as he had hoped.

    • Talks about his most meaningful gig to date.

    • Discusses why he doesn’t practice religion.

    Tune in for a really fun time with one of God’s favorite people, and see if God can get back the love that he is giving Michael.

    Love,

    God
