Guest Libbie Hawker talks with the Mike and Sam about her new novel, “Baptism for the Dead“, about atheist fiction, and current news items.

This week, Sam and Mike have a conversation with Tacoma-local and member of The Clergy Project, Robert Parham. Also, we talk about unicorns, and maybe some old guy on television.

Sam and Becky speak with Michael Nugent of Atheist Ireland about Ireland’s 2009 anti-blasphemy law, Catholic influence on Irish law, and Ireland’s changing religious demographics. Then Mike, Sam, and Becky discuss news items and respond to listener emails.

Big thanks to Living After Faith for the use of the studio for this week’s interview!

Join Dan, Sam, and Mike as we mull over some misconceptions of science and the scientific method by creationists, and how disproving evolution won’t bring back your honey.

Sam and Becky chat with guest Heina Dadabhoy  and her book A Skeptic’s Guide to Islam.  Heina is busy writing her manuscript after a very successful Kickstarter funding campaign.

After that, Libbie joins us to talk about the R74 and the elections in general.   We also discuss the lack of atheism representation in government and the obvious solution to it as enacted by James in Nebraska.
