SHOW NOTES

Happiest of New Years Heathens and Happy 4th Season of Talk Heathen! Wow, we made it to our 4th season! In today’s episode of Talk Heathen, Eric Murphy is joined by Jen Aldrich. Jen Aldrich is one of the new hosts of Godless Bitches 3.0, together with Vi La Bianca & Jenna Belk. She's had her own atheist podcast before, called Not Another Atheist Podcast. Google it and enjoy! Welcome to the co-host chair Jen!

Let’s get to calls. The first caller is Josh from Texas. He is curious about religions before the Abrahamic. Also believes in the ancient aliens hypothesis. Tune in to see Eric be excited about this call and break it down for him.

Next up, Jeffery from Maryland would like to talk about why he believes the way he believes. Eric talks about how he may be celebrating the hits and ignoring the misses by continuing to believe. This is a long conversation and Jeffery is so close to understanding the truth. Watch to see the “magic” happen.

The following caller named Rudy from Indiana is curious about the pros and cons of believing and uses Pascal’s wager to justify belief. Eric and Jen go over Pascal’s Wager to debunk this, listen in to hear them unpack this suitcase and put away the fallacies.

The last caller in the queue is a returning caller named Fred from Florida. He is wanting to continue to discuss prophecies and the unknown authors of the bible. Fred also tries to debunk the contradictions of the bible… how’s that working out Fred? We should really give him homework...
