Episode 87 - Priestcrap, If You Will
Great And Spacious Podcast
12/15/24 • 119 min
The episode begins with Moroni, Abish, Abigail, and aaaAAAaaa exchanging their signature witty repartee. They reminisce about a birthday party that veered from Pinterest-perfect to Mad Max: Sprinkles Road and introduce this week's cocktail, "Keeping the Sabbath Day Ho-ho-holy." It's a holiday drink so sugary it might prompt repentance—or a dental visit. Highlights include a roast of Home Alone's logistics, Pedro Pascal fangirling, and an enthusiastic tangent about the absurdity of Teeth: The Musical. The crew sets the scene for what promises to be a rollercoaster of irreverence and intellect.
Scriptures: [00:18:16]
Hijinks & Detours: What starts as a dive into Doctrine & Covenants 59-60 derails into the confusion between Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino and Luigi Mangione, CEO slayer. Naturally, chaos reigns.
Sabbath Commandments: The hosts tackle themes of gratitude, righteousness, and loving your neighbor with skepticism and snark. A side debate erupts: "Is excessive laughter really that bad?" Consensus? Absolutely not—especially if it involves people getting hit by buses in movies.
Missouri or Bust: Doctrine & Covenants 60’s divine call-out of stage fright sparks debate about introvert shame. Edward Partridge gets roasted as the unwitting divine Venmo account. A vivid sidebar imagines all of this as bedtime reading for Fred Savage—Deadpool style.
Church Teachings: [00:37:48]
Abish leads a rollicking critique of LDS Sabbath teachings, unpacking rules like “no recreational activities” and “confess sins on Sunday,” which feel more like medieval quest prompts than modern guidelines.
Anecdotes: The hosts share cringe-worthy personal stories, like hosting missionaries during the Super Bowl and mistakenly eating ant-filled biscuits. Lessons? Sabbath rules are impractical and ants do not belong in biscuits.
Cultural Enforcement: Small-town LDS Sabbath rigidity gets compared to HOA enforcement—only with more guilt and fewer lawn gnomes.
History: [00:59:36]
Abigail introduces Jacob Hamblin, the Mormon missionary with a flair for miracles and a Wikipedia entry that screams "citation needed." His life, from regrettable early marriage to miracle claims, gets dissected with a mix of humor and historical critique.
Blended Family & Blunders: Hamblin's family drama includes polygamy, a traumatized child survivor of Mountain Meadows, and a teenage Paiute wife who bailed. His home life? Essentially a pioneer reality show.
Peacemaker Legacy: Despite questionable choices, Hamblin’s diplomacy with Native tribes stands out as ahead of its time. He’s dubbed “the least heinous guy in a heinous era.”
The episode ends with the crew marveling at the absurdity of Mormon history, noting that even a figure like Jacob Hamblin seems oddly progressive—if you squint hard enough.
This episode serves up hilarity, irreverence, and just enough historical critique to keep you coming back for more.

Episode 93 - Plubius Dubius Scrubius
Great And Spacious Podcast
01/26/25 • 101 min
The episode kicks off with Moroni welcoming listeners and the banter immediately takes a left turn, covering everything from bizarre fan interactions to overly ambitious birthday plans involving Vegas and tequila. The hosts dive into an on-air review of a tequila-based concoction, inevitably sparking a drunken math debate about alcohol tolerance versus temple worship.
The chaos reaches a peachy climax with the backstory of their drink of the day, the "Preach Bellini," born from a cruise mishap and a blender full of questionable decisions. Abigail’s self-proclaimed title of "soup slut" derails the discussion into a brainstorm for a soup-and-brothel hybrid business. Naturally, this segues into a hilariously disjointed review of Gladiator 2, leading aaaAAAaaa to share an unsolicited opinion on Daniel Radcliffe's "critically acclaimed chest hair." It’s unhinged, unpredictable, and somehow just the intro.
Scriptures: [00:16:57]
aaaAAAaaa gives the scrippys an irreverent tech-industry twist, hilariously reimagine D&C 70, 71, and 72 as an Apple keynote with Joseph Smith pitching revelations in skinny jeans and a pirate shirt.
D&C 70: Marketed as the first paywall for God’s words, focusing on the "priceless value" of revelations while sneakily introducing a subscription plan for church publications.
D&C 71: The "Clapback Commandment," turning criticism into PR gold by weaponizing truth like a slick marketing strategy.
D&C 72: A divine HR performance review for bishops, complete with micromanagement and eternal probation.
The hosts imagine Joseph Smith as a crypto-bro hustling meme coins and MLM schemes in modern times, leading to tangents about the dubious nature of both crypto and certain church callings. It’s a mix of biting satire and theological hot takes that’s equal parts brainy and blasphemous.
Church Teachings: [00:32:13]
Guest host Claudia dives into Mark E. Peterson’s 1954 talk "Race Problems as They Affect the Church", offering a biting critique of its defense of segregation and opposition to interracial marriage. Claudia dissects the absurdity of Peterson’s arguments, pointing out his moral gymnastics and the church’s awkward attempts to sweep this history under the rug.
The discussion weaves in personal anecdotes and modern perspectives, highlighting how far the church has come—or hasn’t. With a healthy dose of sarcasm, the hosts contrast Peterson’s outdated rhetoric with modern genetics, leaving listeners with equal parts anger and laughter at the sheer absurdity of it all.
History: [0054:53]
Abigail introduces *Stilix*, her snarky new AI research assistant, to help unravel the life of B.H. Roberts, the early LDS historian and church leader with a penchant for polygamy and controversial research. Roberts’ work on the "Views of the Hebrews"—a book with suspicious parallels to the Book of Mormon—is the focus, with Abigail gleefully unpacking the drama.
Key parallels between the two texts include divided civilizations, prophetic themes, and even a "white god" figure that screams plagiarism louder than a college kid copying Wikipedia. The hosts mock the church’s dismissal of Roberts’ findings, imagining him as a frustrated historian throwing papers into the air while the church leadership calmly shelves his research in the "Do Not Open" drawer.

Episode 97 - The Gulf of Zion
Great And Spacious Podcast
02/23/25 • 145 min
As always, we kick things off with pop culture, current events, and our signature chaotic cocktail. This week, Abish guided us through the creation of the Cosmonism, a drink that started out looking alarmingly like bodily fluids but was saved by the power of grenadine. We also discuss the cultural travesty that is Love Is Blind casting eight clones of the same white dude, Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary, and White Lotus incest vibes. Standard stuff.
Scriptures: [00:21:20]
Moroni takes us through Doctrine and Covenants 80-83, where Joey Boy continues to hand out meaningless callings, fire people for vague reasons, and lay the groundwork for his version of divine communism—except, of course, when real communism is involved. The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one. Also, we unpack how God is apparently just a celestial landlord and how women and children get “maintenance” instead of, you know, rights. Delightful.
Church Teachings: [00:44:20]
aaaAAAaaa screams at us (in the best way possible) about the LDS Church’s very special relationship with communism. We cover how Mormon leaders, in true hypocritical fashion, demonized communism while literally running a communist-style religious economy (because Jesus-approved wealth redistribution is totally different, you guys). Also, did you know that Ezra Taft Benson was basically besties with McCarthy-era nutjobs and thought Martin Luther King Jr. was a secret communist agent? Yeah. We wish we were kidding.
History: [01:17:19]
Abigail goes full conspiracy mode and takes us on a journey to the center of the Church—literally. Turns out, early Mormons loved the Hollow Earth theory, and Joseph Smith was 100% on board with the idea of secret civilizations living inside the planet. We explore how this nonsense has been around forever (thanks, Greek mythology), why 19th-century scientists were just making shit up, and how Jules Verne was actually onto something (but definitely not the Mormons). Also, we spend a considerable amount of time thirsting over 90s-era Brendan Fraser, which is both valid and necessary.

Episode 80 - Spiritual Re-gifts
Great And Spacious Podcast
10/20/24 • 85 min
Abigail kicks off the episode with her impromptu role as this week’s bartender, whipping up a glitter-infused cocktail dubbed “Sips of the Spirit”—a questionable mix of coconut rum, passion fruit rum, and Sprite Zero. As Abish, who is out this week, live-tweets her disdain for *Joker 2*, the rest of the crew dives headfirst into brunch leftovers, movie misfires, and Abigail's new part-time gig under the watchful eye of her new boss...Abish. The chaos is set, the cinnamon challenge is mentioned, and brunch is officially a hazardous activity.
Scriptures: [00:16:38]
aaaAAAaaa takes the wheel, guiding us through *Doctrine and Covenants* sections 46 and 47—because who doesn’t want a front-row seat to the early days of spiritual power sorting? As the hosts debate whether Joseph Smith was handing out church superpowers like Oprah, they also caution: don’t try to “eat Jesus” until you’ve squared away your sins. Cue the impromptu musical number—a *Sound of Music* parody celebrating spiritual gifts—because what is sacred scripture without show tunes? Whether spiritual discernment counts as a workout routine is left for you to decide.
Church Teachings: [00:31:36]
Moroni takes center stage, delivering a rundown of the official “Gifts of the Spirit” with a side of sarcasm. Healing? Sure. Discernment? Maybe. Confession under pressure? Absolutely—especially when teenage Moroni was convinced the bishop could read his mind and expose his private moments with, well, himself. The hosts bounce between humor and genuine insight, questioning the practicality of some gifts while reveling in the absurdity of others. It’s a spiritual gift buffet, and everyone’s leaving with a side of skepticism.
History: [00:57:11]
Abigail brings us the weirdest history lesson yet, kicking off with The Book of Pukei—the 1830s satire that beat Mark Twain to the punch, mocking Mormon treasure hunters and magicians. From there, it’s a whirlwind tour through early anti-Mormon silent films, where Mormons wielded villainous mesmeric powers (*Trapped by the Mormons*), collected wives like Pokémon cards (*A Mormon Maid*), and just couldn’t stop dying at the end of every movie (*A Victim of the Mormons*). Abigail’s critique of exaggerated mustache-twirling villains and dramatic death scenes will make you wonder if every Mormon movie villain forgot to read the safety instructions on their own plotline.
As the show winds down, the hosts rally to dedicate this episode to the character “Walter the Magician,” based on an obscure early Mormon figure who, in their words, “took his stuffed toad and bounced.” With heartfelt sarcasm, they toast to Walter and the lost art of magical treasure hunting—because if anyone deserves a spot in podcast heaven, it’s a guy who knew how to pull off a cloak-and-dagger act with a side of polygamy.
In the name of the mystical toad, amen.

Episode 79 - Music On Tap
Great And Spacious Podcast
10/13/24 • 144 min
Join our delightfully unhinged hosts—Abish, Moroni, aaaAAAaaa, and Abigail—as they kick off this episode with the kind of casual banter that could only be inspired by the transitional awkwardness of fall. While the heat lingers like an unwanted guest, they mix up a whimsical Mule-enium cocktail, complete with soul-measuring techniques and inside jokes. Expect plenty of light-hearted storytelling, including an unexpected voice message from missionaries that inspires a raucous debate about high-profile names for missionary work. They cap it off with playful jabs at church innovations and some cheeky pop culture references, proving that when it comes to absurdity, there's no shortage of material.
Scriptures: [00:17:07]
Moroni takes us on a comedic rollercoaster through Doctrine and Covenants Section 45, seamlessly blending irreverence with insight. He shares laugh-out-loud impressions and modern references that make even the Second Coming sound relatable. As the hosts rib Joseph Smith’s revelations—comparing them to your average ChatGPT output—they dive into how Mormon teachings often advocate for vigilance while joy is shushed like a rowdy child in church. Expect plenty of anecdotes, including the bizarre rituals involving Diet Coke and the unrealistic lifestyle expectations that accompany them.
Church Teachings: [00:31:09]
aaaAAAaaa explores the hilarity behind Joseph Smith’s translation of the Bible. Why fix something that's already so far gone? Our hosts dissect the audacity of Smith’s self-appointed role as the divine editor, throwing shade at his creative license with existing texts. It’s fan fiction meets scripture as they riff on his revisions like modern pop culture retellings, exposing the absurdity of how his “divine insights” led to sections of the Doctrine and Covenants. Plus, there’s a cheeky nod to how contemporary prophets have avoided diving into the murky waters of biblical translation.
History: [00:57:39]
Abigail lightens the mood by humorously navigating through the history of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, affectionately known as "Motab." From its humble beginnings post-pioneer exodus to the dazzling developments under George Careless (who, yes, cared hard), the hosts hilariously dissect how the choir became a musical powerhouse. Sprinkled with tidbits about early organs and their royal debauchery, this segment features a whirlwind of organ trivia that’ll have you in stitches. From labor-intensive bellows to the age of pneumatic power, the hosts celebrate the majestic—and often absurd—history of the organ. And just wait until you hear about the choir’s rigorous audition process and their unpaid status; it’s a comedy goldmine!
In the grand finale, Abigail dives into a whimsical world of AI-generated fake trivia about the Mormon Tabernacle Choir that would make even the most skeptical giggle. From claims that half of the choir members are advanced singing robots to underwater rehearsals in the Great Salt Lake, nothing is off the table. The hosts share a variety of outlandish “facts,” poking fun at the choir's revenue streams while members remain unpaid. As they dream of a future where water-powered musical fountains featuring automata take center stage, they wrap things up with a playful nod to “Careless Whisper Man,” leaving listeners chuckling and craving more.
Tune in for a ride that’s as educational as it is

Episode 75 - The Swiss Cheese Extremities Man
Great And Spacious Podcast
09/08/24 • 131 min
In what can only be described as being "bad at math" the hosts have poorly timed this episode, and are releasing it out of order to time it with Rusty Nelson's 100th birthday. So, if you are confused about episode 75 being released before episode 74, then you can now stop being confused.
We kick off this episode with a whirlwind of chatter about potent cocktails, especially the enigmatic “double” drink conjured by our resident drink fairy. This hilarious debate transitions into a tangled discussion about the difference between inner musings and external thoughts. With tangents ranging from psychedelic adventures to the unveiling of the night’s fancy drink, the “Rusty Nail-Son,” this segment embodies our signature blend of lighthearted banter and witty commentary.
Scriptures: [00:18:39]
In this segment, aaaAAAaaa takes on Doctrine and Covenants 38 with the fervor of a person deciphering cryptic crossword clues. He humorously critiques god/Jesus's verbose divine self-introduction, likening it to Daenerys Targaryen’s excessive titles from Game of Thrones. Amidst AI-imitated accents and tongue-in-cheek analysis, aaaAAAaaa exposes the contradictions and bizarre theology, like the ironic freedom under divine rule and confusing doctrinal inconsistencies. He wraps it all up with a cynical take on the eternal riches promised by a rather perplexing set of divine directives.
Church Teachings: [00:45:17]
Moroni dives into the ambitious legacy project of Russell Nelson, the current prophet, who seems determined to outshine past leader Gordon B. Hinckley. Nelson’s temple-building spree and rebranding efforts to eradicate the “Mormon” nickname are all part of his quest for supremacy. Moroni scrutinizes these changes, from the end of the “I’m a Mormon” campaign to the push for more temples, reflecting on how these shifts are less about divine guidance and more about crafting a personal legacy. He also humorously contrasts Nelson’s efforts with past church practices and updates, from missionary work to changes in temple ceremonies.
History: [01:33:43]
Abigail takes us on a humorous journey through 1924, introducing Marion Clavar Nelsen, an advertising executive, and his wife Edna, who was part of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The spotlight shifts to their son, Rusty Nelson, whose upbringing and eventual baptism are marked by oddities and inconsistencies. Abigail contrasts Rusty’s achievements with those of his remarkable first wife, Danzel White, whose contributions often go unnoticed. The narrative takes a quirky turn with the revelation of Abigail’s personal connection to Rusty through a distant relative named Ingaborg, leading to jokes about potential pet names. The segment concludes with a heartfelt tribute to Danzel, celebrating her life and contributions while reflecting on the more controversial aspects of Rusty’s later years.

Episode 73 - How Not To Play Trumpet
Great And Spacious Podcast
09/01/24 • 125 min
Welcome back to the show where we finally all meet up in one place, and it’s not California (because apparently, we’re too good for Trader Joe’s and grocery store liquor now). In this episode, we dive into the mixology madness with "The Palo-mah-gawd"—a drink that’s as confused as our blending technique. Expect some playful bickering over the drink’s ingredients and our collective inability to make it look as good as it tastes.
Scriptures: [00:08:00]
Moroni takes the reins as we wade through the wild waters of Doctrine and Covenants 33 and 34. Prepare for a satirical romp through Mormon history, where historical figures get the sarcastic treatment they never saw coming, and scripture is reimagined with more innuendo than a bad soap opera. Whether it’s trumpets or other instruments, nothing escapes our irreverent reinterpretation. By the end, we’re all questioning our past social media choices and laughing at the absurdity of it all.
Church Teachings: [00:34:13]
aaaAAAaaa leads us into the chaotic realm of the Second Coming, where preparing for the apocalypse is as complex as traveling with a baby. Jokes fly about being overly prepared for both end-of-the-world scenarios and exploding diapers. We also delve into the “signs of the times,” poking fun at how wars, disasters, and Brigham Young quotes get twisted into proof that the end is nigh. With a dash of Reddit wisdom and a sprinkle of skepticism, this segment serves up comedic commentary on religious predictions gone awry.
History: [01:01:54]
Abigail guides us through a history lesson with a comedic twist on doomsday predictions. From the apocalyptic thrill of early Mormons to Columbus’s laughable end-of-world forecasts, we explore the evolution of eschatology and its dubious claims. Expect a satirical critique of how predictions have been used to distract from real crises and political shenanigans. With absurd prophecies and outdated views galore, this segment wraps up with a bemused look at historical and contemporary apocalyptic thinking, proving that some things never change—like our fascination with the end of the world.

Episode 63 - Zion is the Friends We Made Along the Way
Great And Spacious Podcast
06/09/24 • 119 min
In a playful banter, the hosts reminisce about the song "Peaches" by The Presidents of the United States of America, sparking memories of discovering its true meaning through the ChaCha text service. They jest about modern high-tech services like human-operated Amazon stores and a quirky incident at the Kansas City Airport. Introducing their signature drink, the "Moronic Peachhood," they share tales of whiskey procurement mishaps and a humorous nod to their sponsor.
Scriptures
aaaAAAaaa leads a comedic exploration of D&C sections 11-14, teasing out repetitive themes, biblical references, and vivid agricultural imagery. Amid jokes about the scriptures' hidden innuendos and the quirky revelations to Joseph Smith, the hosts discuss the restoration of the Aaronic priesthood, infusing the discussion with pop culture references and irreverent humor.
Church Teachings
Abish delves into Mormon temple teachings, blending ADHD-induced tangents with critiques of temple construction logistics and costs. From jokes about temple covenants resembling paid subscriptions to mocking the solemnity of temple recommend interviews, the hosts offer a humorous yet critical analysis. They touch on topics ranging from the repression of joy in temple settings to historic church teachings on abuse victims, peppered with internet trends and ghostly encounters.
History
Abigail recounts the tragic tale of Warren Marshall Johnson and his family's struggles at Lee's Ferry. From Permelia's encounter with a black widow spider to the devastating diphtheria outbreak that claimed half of Permilia's children, the story unfolds with heart-wrenching detail. Despite isolation and oversight from Church authorities, Warren's unwavering faith guides the family through unimaginable hardships, underscoring their resilience amidst adversity in the harsh landscape of the late 19th century frontier.
Tune in for a blend of wit, sarcasm, and historical insight as the hosts navigate through peaches, priesthood, and tragic tales in this latest episode.

Episode 55 - Called To Mansplain
Great And Spacious Podcast
02/04/24 • 104 min
The hosts aaaAAAaaa, Abigail, Moroni, and Abish reunite in this lively episode. After almost finishing the Book of Mormon, they introduce the "Straining Ordinance" drink, sharing the recipe with a dash of sarcasm. Amid discussions about "Resident Alien," Alan Tudyk's brilliance, and life's struggles, they casually drop hints about hospital bills and job losses. The banter concludes with a cheeky mention of Joseph Smith.
Scriptures: [00:08:40]
Abish takes the stage, presenting her version of the Book of Moroni in Alexis Rose's style. They rewrite verses, introducing terms like "GayDHD" and "same-sex distracted". The hosts imagine biblically accurate apostles with wings and ears (instead of eyes), revamping sacrament prayers, and turning the Holy Ghost into a "spirit ninja warrior." As they spice up scriptures, laughter reigns, making even the most solemn verses entertaining. Who knew the Book of Mormon could be this fun?
Church Teachings: [00:24:26]
Moroni tackles the priesthood's gender bias in the Mormon Church. Abigail shares tales of her mother's struggle for equality and recalls the "Ordain Women" movement's uphill battle. The hosts delve into temple rituals, highlighting the unspoken disparities in gender roles. The discussion unfolds as they navigate through the complex power dynamics within the church, shedding light on the controversial Ordain Women movement and its aftermath.
History: [00:52:04]
Abigail takes a historical plunge into the "Adam God doctrine," unveiling Brigham Young's quirky beliefs about Adam's divine status. From Adam being the father of all spirits to fathering Jesus physically, it's a wild ride through early Mormon theology. The hosts dissect reactions within the Mormon community and the gradual distancing from the doctrine by the church. The episode wraps up with Abigail decoding 1869 newspaper jokes, leaving listeners questioning the humor of yesteryear and the mysteries of "quack dishes" and "double-enders."
Join the hosts for another dose of humor, skepticism, and a journey through the quirks of Mormon history. Whether it's sipping on Straining Ordinances or pondering the mysteries of Adam God, this episode promises laughter and enlightenment in equal measure.

Episode 100 - Vagoos Aside
Great And Spacious Podcast
03/16/25 • 147 min
Welcome back, sinners and scholars! We’ve officially made it to 100 episodes, and what better way to celebrate than by doing everything the Word of Wisdom says not to? That’s right—this week, we’re raising our Apostate Elixir (crafted by Abish, but barely survived by our special guest Kal-audia, who nearly perished after one sip) to toast to a century of exposing Mormon absurdity. Before we deep-dive into the hypocrisy of Mormon health codes, we kick things off with pop culture, current events, and, of course, our bespoke cocktail of the week, a blasphemous concoction of caffeine, alcohol, and poor life choices.
Scriptures: 00:23:25
Moroni takes us into Doctrine & Covenants 89, the infamous Word of Wisdom section—aka the scriptural equivalent of an MLM diet plan. This so-called revelation bans coffee but lets you drink soda until your kidneys stage a coup. Also, Joseph Smith wrote this while definitely not following it. Classic Joey boy.
Church Teachings: 01:22:32
aaaAAAaaa leads a hilarious, boozy dive into Mormon dietary contradictions. Expect chaotic trivia, wild reinterpretations, and a drinking game that would get us kicked out of BYU faster than wearing tank tops.
History: 01:52:29
Abigail hosts a special edition of Great and Spacious Jeopardy, where we test our knowledge of the podcast’s own history. Which Game of Thrones character did we all agree is husband material? What horrific Dorito flavor did we use to haze a guest? And who exactly is Swiss Cheese Extremities Man?
So grab a sacrilegious sip of something strong, turn up the volume, and let’s break some commandments together. Here’s to 100 episodes of holy heresy—and many more to come!
