By: Jason Leger & Shauncey Fury

Co-hosted by Shauncey Fury and Jason Leger; Two self-reformed evangelicals with oddly similar backstories full of disdain for the church, and its teachings. Both born to young unwed mothers, both raised by Grandparents extremely active in church, both got sent off to emotionally manipulative Christian summer camps a la “Jesus Camp,” Both wound up embedded in the suburbanite subculture of Christian Hardcore & Punk music which lead to an interest in tattooing which is how they came together as Artist & Client. Together they’ll use their gosh-given gifts of unique insights, trauma-formed wisdoms & dark humors to navigate the absurdities littered throughout the hi...

The "Potiphar" at the End of the Rainbow
#1
03/17/2024

In the Season 4 Premiere of Heretics' Social Club, we wish a Happy St. Patrick's Day to all who celebrate the colonial erasure of the indigenous Irish druids who once inhabited the Emerald Isle. Yet another "Hallmark Holiday" created by the folks who want Earth devoid of any cultural ceremony that doesn't celebrate the imaginary friendship between humanity and White Jesus. After that, someone pinch me, because either I'm dreaming, or we're finally gonna dip our toes into the technicolor dreampool. Don't be fooled by the coat that he's got, he's still, he's still Joey from the block aka rat...


Enthusiastically Stupid: Unclean Adult = Fun Teen Cult?

Hey, before we start this SEASON FINALE, let me ask you all a question.
Y'all ever wish you were part of a gang of unruly youfs roaming the streets smoking lots of cigarettes while doing fun felonies like graffiti, and petty theft? Consider Enthusiastic Sobriety. It's a new super fun cool way to stay off drugs by engaging in various forms of drug related behavior, BUT WITHOUT DRUGS! Whaaaat? You mean I can act like a completely insane human being totally zonked off bing bongs as ling long as I don't get high-yai-yai-I-am-your-butterfly? I'm fucking in. Won't you...


Was Jesus Hung like a Carpenter or More Like a God?
#14
02/04/2024

This week we investigate the final section of John's Gospel wherein the Christ is Crucified for OUR SINS! That's right, we did this, and it's all our fault. God knew that one day we'd all be little heathens, so he sent himself to die for us to protect us from himself! Now let's go masturbate in the shower with half a bottle of nice shampoo like we did when we were middle schoolers so that Jesus won't have died for no reason! Won't you join us, friends?


Agnostic Gnosticism w/ a side of Gnocchi & Ganache

This week we start off the meal with a little bit of Four Loko lore, crack open some whippets, then we'll have to pry Jesus off the couch to go dig up ol' Lazarus who everyone though had wayyyyy too many drinks, but turned out to just be dead. Oopsie! (Quick parenthetical to say that it's good to put information that offers context but doesn't necessarily add to the story in a set of parenthesis to avoid confusion) Make sure to check back next episode when we try to figure out if Jesus was hung like a carpenter, or...


What's this I hear about John with 3-6 teens on an island?
#12
01/07/2024

Ope, that's my bad. I got Epstein island mixed up with Patmos. Anyway, we're back in the Gospel of John to make a few revelations about what Jesus was up to when he was out slinging red words for y'all to ignore. There's a bit where someone is trying to get stoned, but Jesus keeps drawing lines in the sand or something or another. I zone out a lot during the episodes if I'm being honest. I got that ADHD brain. Like that part in Airheads where the guy is just pretending to listen, and saying "Uh Huh" a...

Ho Ho Ho Heretics, Welcome back to the Club! Hope you're having a Social time with your religious family this Holiday season, and that they aren't driving you insane.

We'll regale you with tales of failing health, while filling you in on the sketchy origins behind some of our most beloved Christmas songs. Pile in around the pagan tree, and join in a Yule celebration with your chosen family. Merry X-mas to all, and to...


John the...Gospelator?!?
#10
12/10/2023

You know The Baptist, The Evangel, The Apostle, The Revelator,
Who wrote John 1, and John 2 and John 3 & Revelations?
but do you recall...
the most famous John book of all? 
Johnny the Gospelator,
had some really whiny prose
and if you ever read it
you would probably say it blows.
All of the other gospels 
Told it in synoptic ways.
They never let poor Jesus
Go into an Early Rage!


The Thanksgiving is Short for "The Tom Hanks Giving CPR to a Waterlogged Volleyball" Episode

The Ghost of Thanksgiving Past, The Ghost of Thanksgiving Present, & The Ghost of Native American Remembrance Day Future Walk Into a Bar... Wait, that's not how it goes. I think the turkey, and the pilgrim were already in the bar??? Oh wait! Is this where the show Cheers comes from because it's in Massachusetts? I bet so. As it turns out, real-life American history is very similar to a situational-horror premise, or a sithor as they called it in the olden days, but it also sounds bit like a pejorative against standing sex fiends. What is this? Some sort...


The Third Coming of Saint Lucas the Southern Oracle
#8
11/12/2023

We're so fortunate to have everyone's favorite fortunate son back in the mix for our third look at the silliness encapsulated by the book of Luke. We've been chugging along through the gospels, and this book is done for....now. Who knows when we'll tip toe back into the book of Luke, but I do wish Luke would come talk with us more. We even talked about bringing back the Dotted Line from Podsacola. Would anyone be interested in hearing that movie mayhem again if we replaced Ryan Eaton with Lucas Fury? Might be fun. Who knows? Anyway, let's...


(Satanic) Panic at the Booksto' feat. Chloe Fury

Well Ghouls and Ghosts, It's our Halloween episode, which means that once again we have been revisited by the spirit of Halloween herself: OL' CHLOE FURY! That's right folks! Shauncey's wife is sitting in, so you know he'll be on his best behavior. The gang goes SCARE-o-ling, (That's when you go out with friends singing halloween songs on doorsteps for candy around the neighborhood. Please make that a thing.) Then Jason takes a moment to pause & reflect on a Shauncey harmonica solo so long that he almost started crying. It was a really emotional night. At the end, we...
