Here’s a bit of local news for those of you in the Puget Sound area: BOTHELL, Wash. — A battle is brewing in Snohomish County over a church’s Christmas decoration.   The controversial bright white star sits 90-feet in the air atop a flagpole, and now the county is threatening to take it down.  The county […]

In our most recent episode, Mike started up a new segment to the show that will continue in the KLAY era: ‘Countdown to Backpedaling’. Recently, a fundamentalist Christian organization called “We Can Know” leased billboards in several states in the US alerting citizens to the ‘fact’ that Christ was returning on May 21st of next […]

First of all – Happy Holidays! I love this time of year – especially how accidentally inappropriate the traditional imagery can be. My name is Beth and I’ve been involved with the show for a while behind the scenes, but I’m going to be doing more and more as we make the transition from SCAN […]

I should note that there are secret messages in our ghost hunting episode.   Or at least that’s true according to the inaugural episode of Backmask an Atheist! Thanks to friend of the show Taylor Harris!

Jeremy Whitman, one of the co-creators of Ask an Atheist and one of the comics at the upcoming AaA SoS benefit show this thursday, was on the Northwest Convergence Zone podcast this last Sunday.  They talked about the show, some past religious history, and of course the upcoming benefit.

I can tell you that the post has helped the cause, and that […]

As a reminder, we will be subtitling episode nine at some point in the future.

Note: Looking over the site I noticed that there isn’t a definite entry on that covers 100% of our upcoming transition to KLAY, this post is an attempt to rectify that situation. Every week a small army of people from all over Western Washington work diligently via phone calls, emails, meetings and various other forms […]

I’ve made some changes: While we’re raising funds for out transition to radio, there’s a thermometer up top to track our donation progress. On-Air mode now has a “click to view” addition to the live stream to prevent the plug-in from crashing browsers, which happens occasionally to people who are not under the yoke of […]

As of today, it’s official— Ask an Atheist will be moving from the friendly confines of SCANtv to KLAY 1180 AM, a radio station in Tacoma, starting in January 2011. There will be a lot more to announce and to talk about in the coming week, but for now, enjoy this video and press release, […]
