A Reformed Jew And A Lapsed Catholic Get Married

Starter Marriage - A podcast by Allison Raskin, John Blakeslee, & Studio71 - Mondays

Allison is culturally Jewish while John is a lapsed Catholic. What does this mean for the religious future of their child? Couples therapist, Genesis Games joins the show to help the couple navigate having an interfaith marriage. Is it possible to find a middle ground to raise a curious child rather than a religious one? Also, Allison confesses to being weary of Catholicism while John reveals he thinks consciousness is a construct, an idea that infuriates his wife.
