About this listen

Welcome to the Bible Belt Bros Podcast — a Christian comedy podcast where faith meets funny, and Sunday service stories turn into Monday morning rants (and sometimes spiritual revelations). Hosted by a couple of real-life bros who’ve lived through the awkward altar calls, unplanned youth group disasters, potluck politics, and worship team drama — we bring an unfiltered, light-hearted take on the real stuff that happens in church culture. Why We Started This Podcast Let’s be honest — not every church moment feels like a mountaintop experience. Sometimes, it’s more like trying to sit through a sermon when the sanctuary AC is broken in August. Other times, it’s dealing with that one guy who keeps ”prophesying” that the end is near because he missed his breakfast burrito. We grew up in the thick of church life — youth group lock-ins, church plants, VBS snack tables, and plenty of awkward moments at the altar. And while we’ve seen the beauty and power of the church, we’ve also seen the cracks — the weird, the funny, the frustrating, and everything in between. That’s where this podcast was born. The Bible Belt Bros Podcast isn’t here to bash the church. We love the Church — deeply. But sometimes, you just need to laugh at the messiness, question the weird traditions, and process the baggage that comes with being part of a faith community in a brutally honest (but kind) way. Who Are the Bible Belt Bros? We’re just two guys (and sometimes more — shout out to our guests and rotating side characters) who’ve been doing life and ministry for decades in the buckle of the Bible Belt. We’re husbands, dads, church kids, former staffers, and regular dudes who have experienced the highs and lows of faith, community, and calling. We don’t claim to have all the answers. We’re not theologians with six degrees and publishing contracts. We’re the ones who used to make youth group announcements with a kazoo and a strobe light just to keep students awake. But we’re real. We’ve got stories. And we’re not afraid to laugh at ourselves, our churches, or the ridiculous situations we all find ourselves in when we try to do life together under one steeple. What You Can Expect from Each Episode Each episode of the Bible Belt Bros Podcast is like sitting down with a couple of friends after church — you know, the conversations that happen after the Sunday service dust settles, when the ties are loosened, the coffee’s refilled, and the real talk begins. Here’s what we bring to the table: 1. Hilarious Church Stories You know that time the worship leader forgot the lyrics… to “Amazing Grace”? Or when someone got baptized and the heater hadn’t been turned on in weeks? Yeah, we tell those stories — and invite our listeners to share theirs too. Because if we can’t laugh at ourselves, we’re doing church wrong. 2. Hot Takes on Church Culture We dive into all the quirks and unspoken rules of modern evangelical life — from the politics of church potlucks to the theology of church coffee. Why is it that the drums are still controversial in some places? What’s with the “Love Offering” envelopes? And why do we all know at least one person who acts like the parking lot is a spiritual battleground? 3. Real Faith Conversations We don’t shy away from the deep stuff either. We talk about burnout, doubt, church hurt, and spiritual growth — but with honesty and a healthy dose of humor. Because real life is messy, and faith isn’t always polished. 4. Unfiltered Rants (The Holy Kind) Sometimes we just need to rant — about cheesy Christian movies, overused sermon illustrations, or how every youth camp seems to recycle the same skits from 1998. But our rants always come from a place of love and a desire to see the church thrive. 5. Relatable Guests and Stories We’ve had conversations with pastors, church planters, former church kids, musicians, and random dudes who once played Jesus in a church play. Every guest brings their unique perspective and a few jaw-dropping stories that’ll make you laugh and think. We believe church should be a place where you can be yourself. Where you can bring your doubts, your jokes, your sarcasm, and your snacks. So whether you’ve been in church since birth or are still trying to figure out if you’re allowed to laugh during prayer — we invite you to take this journey with us. The Bible Belt Bros Podcast is for everyone who loves Jesus but isn’t afraid to joke about the awkward parts of following Him with others. Come for the comedy.

  • Have We Lost Our Awe of God in Modern Church Culture?
    Jan 19 2026

    In this episode of The Bible Belt Bros Podcast, Dusty and Andrew wrestle with a question that feels uncomfortably relevant: have we lost our awe of God?

    Dusty kicks things off by asking whether worship services and church life have become so familiar that we no longer walk in with any real expectation for God to move. When everything starts to feel routine, do we stop anticipating the presence and power of the Lord altogether?

    Andrew pushes the conversation further by asking if our dependence on tools like Google and ChatGPT has quietly replaced the hard, personal work of studying God’s Word for ourselves. Are we outsourcing our spiritual growth instead of opening the Bible with humility, curiosity, and reverence?

    Together, the guys talk honestly about comfort, convenience, and how easily awe can fade when faith becomes automated. It’s a reflective conversation that challenges listeners to slow down, re-examine their posture before God, and rediscover the wonder of encountering Him—not just learning about Him.

    If you’ve ever felt spiritually “on autopilot,” this episode is for you.

  • Do You Know the Romans Road?
    Jan 12 2026

    You don’t need a memorized speech or a perfect setup to share the gospel—you just need God’s Word.

    In this episode of The Bible Belt Bros Podcast, Dusty and Andrew walk through the Romans Road, a simple collection of Scriptures from the book of Romans that clearly explains sin, salvation, and grace. The guys talk about why these verses have stood the test of time, how memorizing them builds confidence, and why Scripture itself does the heavy lifting when it comes to sharing your faith.

    They discuss:

    • Why the Romans Road is still relevant today

    • How memorizing Scripture prepares you for real-life conversations

    • The difference between sharing truth and trying to “win” someone

    • Why simple obedience matters more than perfect delivery

    Whether you’re new to the faith or grew up hearing the Romans Road, this episode is a reminder that God often uses the simplest tools to make the biggest impact.

    📖 The Romans Road Verses (NLT)

    Romans 3:23 (NLT)

    For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.

    Romans 6:23 (NLT)

    For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.

    Romans 5:8 (NLT)

    But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.

    Romans 10:9 (NLT)

    If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

    Romans 10:13 (NLT)

    For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

  • Marriage Expectations vs Reality with Gatlin and Maeryn
    Dec 2 2025

    Dusty and Andrew sit down with dating couple Maeryn Coonce and Gatlin Gunn for an honest, hilarious conversation about relationships, marriage, and faith.

    In this episode, we dive into the gap between marriage expectations and reality—from Bible studies together to figuring out who does the cooking and cleaning. Andrew shares what surprised him most about married life (spoiler: it's not what you think), while the hosts discuss how living together 24/7 changes everything.

    Maeryn opens up about her podcast "The Reason" on Spotify and how God called her to start it. She and Gatlin share their journey of staying pure while dating, their dreams of traveling and going on mission to Africa, and how their completely different upbringings have shaped their view of marriage.

    The conversation covers everything from the importance of marrying your best friend to finding hobbies you enjoy together (even if that's watching your partner play Minecraft while you crochet). Plus, plenty of hilarious tangents including Gatlin making a fishing line out of yarn and a hot dog, and why he still needs his dad's permission to download apps.
