Not So Peter Priesthood137. Rameumptom? More Like Ram Me Up HimJake gives Dusti a lesson straight from the Mormon lesson manual about Alma, Korihor, the Zoramites, and a funny little thing called the Rameumptom.

2024-07-3159 minNot So Peter Priesthood135. Anticipatory GriefThis week's episode focuses on anticipatory grief and, really, grief in general.

2023-11-041h 19Not So Peter Priesthood95. Effects of AbuseJake reads two different talks by Richard G Scott that cover abuse. Spoiler alert: the church's view on abuse is very problematic.

2023-07-121h 10Not So Peter Priesthood86.

There's also a huge digression about cloacas. Rate, review, and subscribe!
2023-06-211h 12Not So Peter Priesthood80. Can't with the Truck NutsDusti is back! This is a short episode to welcome back the emotional support Canadian and for you to hear basically what a real conversation between Jake and Dusti is like. They talk online dating, trucks, vitamins, Jared Leto, and weak pullout games. Dusti apologizes to all listeners for leaving them with Jake, but the sassy Canadian is back. More screaming into the void to come!
2023-05-1038 minNot So Peter Priesthood77. Give'r: The Good Girl SyndromeThis week, Jake and Dusti talk about sex! But through the lens of a popular Mormon sexual intimacy book called And They Were Not Ashamed by Dr. Laura Brotherson, and yes it's as cringey as it sounds. Complete with some very questionable Canadian slang, this one is not for the faint of heart. Also, they barely skimmed the surface of the book, so there will be more from this in the future!
2023-03-151h 11Not So Peter Priesthood76. The Satanists of MormonismThis week is a special treat! Jake and Dusti invite special guests Brittany and Mags to the podcast. Brittany is a pastor and Mags is a historian for the Community of Christ Church. They are here this week to offer clarity and insight into the church.

He talks about covenants (fun drinking game: take a shot whenever he says the word "covenant." Actually don't; you might die), the need for a church and organized religion, and quotes the Book of Mormon A LOT. What is a TK Smoothie you ask? You'll have to listen to find out!
2023-02-221h 21Not So Peter PriesthoodEw, David! Don't Masturbate!Jake and Dusti talk about a youth broadcast hosted by Gerrit Gong, Bonnie Cordon, and Steven Lund. This performative devotional was where they presented the 2023 youth theme: I Can Do All Things Through Christ. A Mormon analogy wouldn't be complete without some good ol' cultural appropriation as Elder Dong talks about spiritual trail markers. Enjoy!
2023-02-151h 23Not So Peter PriesthoodPersonal Progress isn't PersonalThis week, Dusti dusts off her Personal Progress book to share with Jake. If you, listener, were in Young Women's this episode might trigger you and you might find yourself reciting the theme along with Dusti. That's what brainwashing and conditioning will do to you!
2023-02-081h 18Not So Peter PriesthoodEmma's ChurchWomen with the priesthood? LGBTQ inclusivity? No forced baptisms? No weird temple ceremonies? Book of Mormon not viewed as the main scripture? Could it be that the Restored LDS church has more things right than the mainstream church?

2023-02-021h 19Not So Peter PriesthoodYour Mission Handbook has a Beard?!Get ready because this week we are diving into the mission handbook that tells missionaries literally everything they can and cannot do on their missions.

At the beginning of January, Jeffrey Holland and his wife Patricia spoke to youth of the church at a conference, and Jake reads highlights to Kadey of what was said. Don't worry, listeners, Dusti will be back!
2023-01-181h 08Not So Peter PriesthoodWeak Little ArmsJake reads an article from Deseret News to Dusti. The article talks about how language is being corrupted to the point where gender is being confused and the role of a woman is muddied. As you can imagine, it's extremely problematic. TW: anti-transgender stuff that might be sensitive to some listeners.
2023-01-051h 14Not So Peter PriesthoodWant Some Aloe for that Sick Burn? Jake tells Dusti all about D. Gary Young and Young Living Essential Oils which is all the rage in Utah and among a lot of Mormons. This MLM has a very problematic past with a very controversial founder (sound familiar?). TW: infant death

2022-07-141h 03Not So Peter PriesthoodPlaying KinderhookyThis episode is the beginning of a series brought to you by Jake. At the beginning of this little journey, Jake tells Dusti about a hoax played on Joseph Smith: the Kinderhook plates. They were fabricated plates meant to catch J Dawg for the scam artist he was. This is only the beginning of the rabbit holes Jake will take you down in the weeks to come.
2022-07-061h 03Not So Peter PriesthoodHi Gay!For the end of Pride month, Jake and Dusti read an article from LDS Living written by a Mormon mom giving advice on what to say when a family member comes out as gay. It's every bit as cringy as you'd expect.
2022-06-291h 24Not So Peter PriesthoodExMormon RhetoricThis week's special guest is Stephen (aka @exmormon_rhetoric). Jake and Stephen both have military backgrounds.

Listen to how he has found ways to cope as he continues to deconstruct while maintaining a healthy relationship with his family. They get a bit spiritual and a few tangents ensue. This one is a longer episode, but it is well worth it! Enjoy!
2022-06-221h 41Not So Peter PriesthoodActual AgencyJake's guest on this week's episode is Shirelle (@actual_agency).

2022-06-081h 11Not So Peter PriesthoodFOMO (On Deez Nuts)Jake is joined again with Kadey, one-half of the Not So Molly Mormon podcast. They read a talk that was given by Rusty Nelson about FOMO and, essentially, Mormon exceptionalism.

2022-06-011h 40Not So Peter PriesthoodThe Cool KidsJake and Dusti discuss the cliques and "cool kids" in the exMo community. They also discuss the susceptibility of exams to fall for charismatic leaders and toxic, structured communities. Digressions include: cringey Mormon missionary TikToks, tattoos that bring the wrath of Sky Daddy, and a brief discussion about segregation in the church. Jake gets a bit tipsy and there are some technical difficulties, but stick around because it is worth it!
2022-05-251h 13Not So Peter PriesthoodSwipe Up for JesusNot So Peter Priesthood is back with special guest Dusti. Jake and his emotional support Canadian talk about the Mormon dating app, Mutual. They share reviews, terrible church-oriented pick-up lines, myths about the app, and online dating stories. There are a few tangents but mostly just a lot of laughing.
2022-05-111h 07Not So Peter PriesthoodMormon Porn & Release ValvesOn this week's episode, Jake and Dusti talk all about pornography, specifically Mormon pornography. Not only do they talk about the fetishizing of Mormons in porn, but also how the leaders of the church demonize pornography. Things obviously get a little raunchy and end with a lovely quote from Boyd K Packer. Digressions include Paul Walker and, naturally, masturbation. The underlying theme is that everyone needs therapy. Go release your valves after you've listened to this episode!
2022-04-271h 18Not So Peter PriesthoodOaky AfterbirthJake welcomes Kadey from Not So Molly Mormon podcast back to the show and tells her all about A Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The first story of Sherlock Holmes featured Mormons during Brigham Young's time. Because of the way Doyle portrayed Mormons, this story has been banned and hated by them. Could it be that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle got it right?
2022-04-201h 07Not So Peter PriesthoodHighwater: A Special Interview with Irene's EntropyThis week's episode drops early for very special reasons. For this episode, Jake sits with Irene from Irene's Entropy. April 12 is her freedom day, the day she received a letter telling her that her records had been removed from the church, and thus the beginning of her new life. Irene's Entropy has also released an album on April 12 which is available on her website and will be available for streaming in the future.

2022-04-121h 26Not So Peter PriesthoodYour Body Belongs to YouIn this episode, Jake and Dusti tackle purity culture in the Mormon religion. Jake actually does research but quickly finds he should have at least read the whole article before recording. They talk tattoos, sex, how purity culture affects men as well as women, and, of course, other tangents ensue. This one is a doozy you won't want to miss!
2022-04-061h 08Not So Peter PriesthoodSpecial Lady FriendsTake a dive into queer Mormon history with Jake and Dusti as they discuss the lives of Louie B. Felt and May Anderson. These women served as the first general primary presidents and founded The Friend Magazine. History remembers them as really close friends, but it is obvious their love was deeper than that. Tangents and digressions include: book recommendations corner, 1-900 numbers, The Little Mermaid, condoms, and friends that are practically family.
2022-03-301h 19Not So Peter PriesthoodMorning Glory Milking FarmMichelle is a never-Mormon, but her story is very relatable. Listen as she tells Jake about her religious experiences. Michelle recounts ostracism from religion as a kid, her attempt to return to religion and how it backfired wildly, and what led her to ultimately be an atheist. This one gets insane! There's a huge digression at the end about blue alien barbarian smut. TW: suicide mentioned briefly.
2022-03-231h 23Not So Peter PriesthoodGirl, Interrupted and ConvertedOn this week's episode, Jake talks to Meg who tells her story about being sent to a facility in Utah, converted to Mormonism, and what eventually led her to leave the church.

2022-03-091h 25Not So Peter PriesthoodIntent Does Not Override ImpactThis week's episode is a special treat as Jake invites an anonymous guest to talk about her experiences working at BYU during the aftermath of Jeffery R Holland's musket fire speech. The anniversary of that speech is approaching so what is it really like at BYU these days? Hear it straight from the source!
2022-03-021h 18Not So Peter PriesthoodTake Several Seats, BradThe now infamous talk given by Brad Wilcox at a tri-stake youth conference earlier this month gets the Not So Peter Priesthood treatment as Jake tells Dusti all about it. This talk is problematic from start to finish. If you have not listened to it, you might not even have to or want to after you listen to this episode. Remember to rate, review, and subscribe! Enjoy!
