Welcome to the Bible Belt Bros Podcast — a Christian comedy podcast where faith meets funny, and Sunday service stories turn into Monday morning rants (and sometimes spiritual revelations). Hosted by a couple of real-life bros who’ve lived through the awkward altar calls, unplanned youth group disasters, potluck politics, and worship team drama — we bring an unfiltered, light-hearted take on the real stuff that happens in church culture.
Why We Started This Podcast
Let’s be honest — not every church moment feels like a mountaintop experience. Sometimes, it’s more like trying to sit through a sermon when the sanctuary AC is broken in August. Other times, it’s dealing with that one guy who keeps ”prophesying” that the end is near because he missed his breakfast burrito.
We grew up in the thick of church life — youth group lock-ins, church plants, VBS snack tables, and plenty of awkward moments at the altar. And while we’ve seen the beauty and power of the church, we’ve also seen the cracks — the weird, the funny, the frustrating, and everything in between.
The Bible Belt Bros Podcast isn’t here to bash the church. We love the Church — deeply. But sometimes, you just need to laugh at the messiness, question the weird traditions, and process the baggage that comes with being part of a faith community in a brutally honest (but kind) way.
We don’t claim to have all the answers. We’re not theologians with six degrees and publishing contracts. We’re the ones who used to make youth group announcements with a kazoo and a strobe light just to keep students awake.
But we’re real. We’ve got stories. And we’re not afraid to laugh at ourselves, our churches, or the ridiculous situations we all find ourselves in when we try to do life together.
Each episode of the Bible Belt Bros Podcast is like sitting down with a couple of friends after church — you know, the conversations that happen after the Sunday service dust settles, when the ties are loosened, the coffee’s refilled, and the real talk begins.
Here’s what we bring to the table:
1. Hilarious Church Stories
You know that time the worship leader forgot the lyrics… to “Amazing Grace”? Or when someone got baptized and the heater hadn’t been turned on in weeks? Yeah, we tell those stories — and invite our listeners to share theirs too. Because if we can’t laugh at ourselves, we’re doing church wrong.
2. Hot Takes on Church Culture
We dive into all the quirks and unspoken rules of modern evangelical life — from the politics of church potlucks to the theology of church coffee. Why is it that the drums are still controversial in some places? What’s with the “Love Offering” envelopes? And why do we all know at least one person who acts like the parking lot is a spiritual battleground?
3. Real Faith Conversations
We don’t shy away from the deep stuff either. We talk about burnout, doubt, church hurt, and spiritual growth — but with honesty and a healthy dose of humor. Because real life is messy, and faith isn’t always polished.
4. Unfiltered Rants (The Holy Kind)
Sometimes we just need to rant — about cheesy Christian movies, overused sermon illustrations, or how every youth camp seems to recycle the same skits from 1998. But our rants always come from a place of love and a desire to see the church thrive.
5. Relatable Guests and Stories
We’ve had conversations with pastors, church planters, former church kids, musicians, and random dudes who once played Jesus in a church play. Every guest brings their unique perspective and a few jaw-dropping stories that’ll make you laugh and think.
We believe church should be a place where you can be yourself. Where you can bring your doubts, your jokes, your sarcasm, and your snacks.

Dusty is the Therapist as Andrew Vents about Church Plans vs God's Plans
In this episode, Dusty becomes Andrew’s therapist as he vents about basically everything.
The guys jump into a conversation that picks up from the last episode—this time digging into the idea of a whole church doing the same Bible study together. Andrew has... thoughts. Like, a lot of them. And Dusty? He mostly listens, throws in a few jokes, and keeps the mic from catching on fire.
They talk about how their church is doing a 40-day reading plan through Matthew and Romans. The idea is that everyone’s on the same page—literally. If someone in accounting is reading the same thing as someone on the worship team, it makes spiritual conversations easier and less weird. You can be like, “Hey, what’d you learn today?” and it doesn’t feel awkward.
But Andrew’s not totally sold. He’s got concerns about whether these group studies are Spirit-led or just pastor-led. He wonders if we’re really following God—or just doing what the church tells us. He brings up fasting, church schedules, leadership styles, and even his own issues with submitting to authority. It’s honest. It’s a little messy. It’s definitely real.
Dusty pushes back a bit, reminding Andrew that submitting to leadership isn’t always bad. Sometimes you just do it. Even if you don’t feel it. Even if it feels like a fad. Because growth can still happen. And also... it’s just 40 days.
They also talk about how church people are all at different spiritual levels. So one plan might feel too basic for some and too deep for others. But Dusty points out—it’s only 10 minutes a day. You can still go deeper on your own, and it might even open up chances for discipleship.
By the end, Andrew admits it’s not really a leadership problem. It’s more of a “me” problem. He’s still doing the study, even though he doesn’t love it. And Dusty, well, he basically wins therapy today.
If you've ever struggled with church plans, leadership, or just doing something you don’t feel like doing, this episode is for you. Also, if you're a tier 3 Christian subscriber... Andrew sees you.
