  • 66. Episode 66: The Death of the Pastor's Wife

    01:12:28||Ep. 66
    Howdy pardners! Today, Jake and Brooke take a dip into the world of true crime as they discuss the recent Netflix Documentary "The Death of the Pastor's Wife", and how it ties in to Love & Respect, and the extended Dobson-verse more broadly. Spoilers for the documentary contained within. Go watch that first, it's worth your time. Even if Netflix isn't worth the money anymore - they want you to pay how much for streaming? Remember when Hulu was free? Now that's a true crime story.Check out our patreon! patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonOr go to ihatejamesdobson.com for all our linksMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: T4HUVECB2POQEQDG

    01:53:33||Ep. 65
    We are so back, everyone. And this might be the episode that breaks Jake, or at least one where they find a new opp. Today, Jake and Brooke talk about the putrid publication "Love & Respect". It gets really dark and Jake "full Muppet" (their own description). This may be your favorite - or least favorite - episode, depending on how much of a masochist you are.

  • 64. Episode 64: James Dobson Wrote A Third Eugenics Novel That Isn't Nearly As Horny But Somehow That Makes It Worse

    01:27:24||Ep. 64
    This third and final novel puts Jake and Brooke's mental fortitude to the test. We finally get the answers to questions no one was asking, like "What happens to Kevin Tolbert?" (nothing) and "Will Matthew Adams finally face justice?" (kind of).

  • 63. Episode 63: James Dobson wrote an Even Hornier Eugenics Novel

    01:06:28||Ep. 63
    We're unfortunately back, back, back, again with another Dobson novel. It's a sequel to his first novel, "Fatherless", and it's somehow even hornier than last time. It's also a poorly written mystery, and entirely ineffective social critique - all in 1!

  • 62. Episode 62: James Dobson Wrote a Horny Eugenics Novel

    01:30:00||Ep. 62
    I feel like the title really says it all on this one, folks. Dobson wrote a novel about eugenics. It's wildly horny. It's pretty bad. Jake and Brooke will tell you all about it - and also a lot about sandwiches. That's mostly unrelated.Check out our patreon! patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonOr go to ihatejamesdobson.com for all our linksMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5Shttps://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/get-that-thingLicense code: CLTQBJCDSM2QEAWO

    Wowza! We have guests! Today, Jake is joined by Kevin and Kelly to talk about what comes after James Dobson. You know, ironically, James Dobson did bring my family closer together - through shared hatred.

    Happy Pride part 2! Today, Jake and Brooke dive back into the tragic world of Bringing Up Boys to talk about the rot under the hood. While they tear apart conversion therapy and its proponents, there are also big laughs and lots of silliness. The two genders.

  • 59. Episode 59: The John Paulk Story

    01:05:49||Ep. 59
    Happy Pride, Readers! This is an episode Jake has been waiting to make for a second now, so get ready as Jake and Brooke talk about the story of John Paulk, first told in Bringing up Boys and then re-examined 25 years later in the podcast "Atonement: The John Paulk Story". It's a story of pain, redemption, and c*nty letters from TV producers - it really is everything you'd want from a Pride episode.

    01:03:52||Ep. 58
    Howdy ho, readers! On this episode, Jake and Brooke discuss the finale of the Focus on the Family Film series, a movie with a title so obnoxious it was one of the first running jokes of the blog: What Wives Wish Their Husbands Knew About Women. Brooke and Jake discuss the content, as well as just why Dobson is so bad at all of this. And now, we never have to talk about this terrible title ever again.Check out our Patreon! www.patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5S
