To me, that is the quintessential book on evangelicalism. I read it prior to doing this podcast and I’m going to reread it once the show is done

Just recorded an episode and immediately took Dante out to the Park. He loved it.

More specifically: he doesn’t know what to do with criticism. He misunderstands it, takes it super personally, then lashes out based on his misunderstanding. Just ignore it man. Log off. People will be mad for like a week and then move on.

Spoilers for an episode coming out in like 4 months, but the more I read/watch content by John Cooper of Skillet, the more I’m left with the conclusion that he is just mean and dumb. And he doesn’t realize how much of either he is. That kinda sucks

Hi! We’ve been tagged a couple times in this post, and oh boy do we have thoughts on Dare to Discipline (Kachow)

Really great episode, for someone who grew up with this, Brooke’s reactions of shock, disgust, and confusion are wonderfully affirming 🫶 🙌

New episode out today - and it's a fun one! Actually! Brooke and I take a drive through the weird world of Chrsitian Kids Media. Get ready to hear so much about donuts, it's all Brooke and I have talked about since we recorded

@ihatejamesdobson.bsky.social thank you for inspiring my recent cross stitch!

Cross stitch of Baphomet and satanic imagery with the quote "go and believe in sin no more" from James Dobson's Fatherless series

This is incredible. I let out a scream. Boyfriend said it is his favorite. I would buy this. 10/10, 5 stars

Meryl Streep as Aslan in a highly-stylized Narnia movie directed by Greta Gerwig. Incredible sentence. And also means I have to update part of the next episode

@ihatejamesdobson.bsky.social Random thought: Editing Jake as an alter ego, the know-it-all who appears seemingly out of nowhere to correct and clarify what you just said. And a potential niche Halloween outfit! Not sure what that entails but pretty sure it involves a turtleneck.

I love a good flow game so it really hit the spot for me. I hope you enjoy it if you do pick it up again!

New episode out today! We are topical for once, talking about the Netflix documentary “The Death of the Pastor’s Wife”. #podcast #exvangelical #newepisode

Happy birthday, Brooke! Sorry for the trauma, but you seem to be taking it in stride

Lmao I haven’t yet watched it, but that is the second most common note about this episode. The first was “ohmygod that was awful”

*shaking my head while choosing material from the Bookshelf of Shame to let everyone know I disapprove of its contents*

Top row: VHS collections 2nd row: Dobson’s books in order of original publication 3rd row: Dobson reprints, more VHS organized by theme Bottom row: Non-Dob books (left are evangelicals, right are non-evangelicals)

I had to get a Bookshelf of Shame. It is already full.

I actually did a version of this in our “How I Became an Evangelical” episode!

Worse, I’m listening to their podcast

I’m doing some preliminary research for a Skillet episode, and I’ve had related dreams for the last few nights. I don’t like this trend.

Such good points! Not to talk too much out of turn, but as a Dom this is something I think not enough people understand and appreciate. Also the fact that Doms also need aftercare is sometimes a novel concept.

I’m very proud of this episode. Also the content sucks lmao

New episode out today! It’s maybe my least favorite book we’ve ever covered. It’s a classic that has been requested by multiple people, “Love & Respect”

RIP Dolly Parton. Truly the best to ever do it

First anniversaries are traditionally marked by paper gifts. So I bought $300 worth of Dobson propaganda on eBay

I’m gonna make something about it, for sure. It, uh, inspired a lot of feelings.

lol I might do a Patreon exclusive mini-story time about it. I refuse to read this book though.

I Hate James Dobson @ihatejamesdobson.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I think it’s because the show gets tagged as “Christian book review” or some shit, and bad PR machines just go by SEO tags. We’ve gotten a lot of offers for guests (whose managers also clearly don’t know the show, lots of quasi-cult leaders). This is the first book sent to me though

130

I Hate James Dobson @ihatejamesdobson.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Officially got our first bit of PR. Unfortunately it both sucks (a Christian book who clearly doesn’t know the show) and was sent to my work.

It was such a bizzare choice to make Julia the main character (she has the most POV chapters, the story begins and ends with her) when she doesn’t do fuck all after book 1
