Welcome back to Bear Comes Clean. Season 2 has arrived and Jennifer is here to stay. On this episode, we compare raising a child in Queens, New York with Northwest Ohio, take a deep dive into a variety of faiths, and discuss Bear's love for LDS missionaries.

Also, Bear is ready to start a crime ring at a senior living facility, Ricky Gervais is a great guy who loves cats, and it's OK to change frequencies. Plus, Jennifer does not believe the world is ending. Bear does.

We'll be back for Episode 2 soon!

Happy New Year! Bear Comes Clean Season 2 is coming sooner than you think. Sooner than even I thought. We'll return with cohost Jennifer on Wednesday, January 21st.

So, why listen to this teaser when you just got all the information you need upfront in the description? Why do anything? Join me for exactly fifteen minutes of Jesus, bears, tattoos, and random nonsense to cleanse your palate for the upcoming season of Bear (and Jennifer) Comes Clean. See you in two weeks!

Season One comes to a close on this very merriest of Christmases. Yes, it's long overdue and off cycle from the normal Wednesday release cycle. That's explained in this forty-ish minute episode. And no, Jennifer is not on the show this week. She will join us biweekly when we return for Season Two in 2026.

Thank you to everyone who downloaded, subscribed, or just listened to an episode here and there. We'll get a few episodes queued up in early 2026 so we can get back to our every other Wednesday release cycle. See you all in the new year!
