I Hate James Dobson

I know we are all exhausted talking about the election, but we haven't given our takes yet! Today, Jake is joined by the extra-special guest Cat to talk about the election, where we go from here, and why it's all James Dobson's fault. It's not a good time per se, but it is a time.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5S

This one is pretty straight forward, y'all. It's been a tough and weird week, so sit back, relax, and enjoy a palate cleanser of cringe. Who doesn't want to hear Dobson give 'the talk'? That sounds like my kind of party.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5S

I don't know who this is for. Sometimes you just need to vent to a thousand of your closest strangers, you know?Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5S

The stakes are high and so is our anxiety, but panic helps no one. Today, Jake and Brooke take a moment to talk about getting through the election tomorrow (!!!). Breathe, ground yourself, drink water, put down your phone, and choose to have hope. Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5S

Sometimes the only thing scarier than what goes bump in the night is what happens in Dobson-inspired books. In this very festive episode, Jake and Brooke face their fears in the most heart-wrenching, hair-raising episode yet! Join them as they unearth the tomb known as "What Does the Bible Teach About Transgenderism?" - and try to break its curse before it's too late.Sources CitedAmerican Association for Marriage and Family Therapy Code of EthicsBustos, V.
