Naughty by Nature is a show about finding a god that accepts all of you.

In this cheeky and subversive series about how to keep the faith, Treen talks with guests about how they processed their religious baggage and carved out a unique spiritual path for themselves.

Oh, and God will be there too, played by a different mystery comedian on every episode.

Baptism and the Real Meaning of Being Born Again

In our premiere episode, our host, Treen, revisits topics taught by the Evangelical Christian church with a blend of humor, storytelling, and role-playing.

Joined by public speaker, coach, and author Ruthie Lindsey, they delve into their past experiences of Evangelical baptism, spiritual deconstruction, and rebirth. Oh and “God” is there too, improvised and played by Los Angeles based comedian, Alen Kolenovic.

This episode touches on the origins of the word 'God', the impact of Christian religious upbringing and what it might actually mean to be “born again.” This hilarious conversation is full of engaging anecdotes and discussions, as this trinity examines themes of shadow work, self-acceptance and the evolving nature of what it means to be on the spiritual path.
