Show Notes
Step into the imagination station and rewind all the way back to 2006 to join Jake and Brooke as they talk about the definitional documentary "Jesus Camp" - as well as the legacy of it now almost 20 years later. If you're playing IHJD Bingo at home, I think this episode gets you a full run.

More from I Hate James Dobson
So like the answer is clearly no, because Vance is Catholic. Right? Jake and Brooke dig into the truth - and, more interestingly, the propaganda. Warning: we talk about American politics. This is as close to a "midterm" episode as we will get I promise.
Good morning/afternoon/evening to you, dear reader. Today, Jake and Brooke take a step back, take a breath, and laugh at the weird world of Christian Kids Media. Come for the nostalgia, stay for the donut man song. It's an unironically fun one today, I think we all deserve it.
Howdy pardners! Today, Jake and Brooke take a dip into the world of true crime as they discuss the recent Netflix Documentary "The Death of the Pastor's Wife", and how it ties in to Love & Respect, and the extended Dobson-verse more broadly. Spoilers for the documentary contained within. Go watch that first, it's worth your time. Even if Netflix isn't worth the money anymore - they want you to pay how much for streaming? Remember when Hulu was free? Now that's a true crime story.
We are so back, everyone. And this might be the episode that breaks Jake, or at least one where they find a new opp. Today, Jake and Brooke talk about the putrid publication "Love & Respect". It gets really dark and Jake "full Muppet" (their own description). This may be your favorite - or least favorite - episode, depending on how much of a masochist you are. Either way, we are in this together.
This third and final novel puts Jake and Brooke's mental fortitude to the test. We finally get the answers to questions no one was asking, like "What happens to Kevin Tolbert?" (nothing) and "Will Matthew Adams finally face justice?" (kind of). All that and more in this episode.
