*EARLY ALERT* - EP. 152 IS HERE!

No place is safe. Only Jesus. I've decided.

Anne Patterson

"Christianity in the US has become a boutique of preferences" Ooof, very eloquently said!

Anne Patterson

Can I just say that I love that Lily just knits away during each episode? ♥️

Anne Patterson

Is Andy drinking out of a Stanley?

Jesse B

Here comes a whisk: Ever read the Book of Mormon? Cover to cover. Open heart, searching genuinely? Aaaaand there's the match to this powder keg lol (But, really hopefully not)

Anne Patterson

Haight Ashbury was part of the genesis of the Berkley, Hippie, sex, drugs, rock & roll, roll-out. Of course J.West was there in CIA regalia. Andy looks incredibly sleep deprived (or slightly buzzed.) Josh, Just because an EO monk "validates" something, doesn't validate EO. jmo.

Eric JM Jensen

When our faith is subjected to anything but sacred Scripture, we get God's judgement. That judgement comes packaged as massive deception most often in the Bible. Some examples of massive deception in our day: Roman Catholicism Eastern Orthodoxy Prosperity Gospel Islam PreMil Dispensationalism (Left-Behindism) None of these can be supported by rightly exegeting God's inspired Scripture. Christianity in the US has become a boutique of preferences: The latest, most convincing book, tv show, or personality, are ALL given authority that belongs to God's Word alone. I'm so grateful for the Protestant Reformation, God's most recent revival of Christianity.

Eric JM Jensen

No it's the folding tonneau cover that smacked him in the face haha and S-O-C-K-S is "Eso si que es " or "That yes what is "or if you wanted proper sentence it's " Yes what is that " lol

Salazar79Z28

I love how Andrew perpetually looks like a middle school boy.

Jessica McNish

Sock shoe sock shoe sock sock shoe

xxOLSON

Love you Josh all of you look amazing!

Colton Fisher

Yeah same, I only watch NAB on Patreon 😊

Rebekah Turney

Andy after I had my wisdom teeth pulled same situation as you they had cracked and were decaying away, a few weeks after I could feel a piece of tooth sticking out and I eventually grabbed it with a tweaser and all has been good since it was instant relief.

Brody

Better help is owned by Teladoc. Teladoc’s top shareholder is the Vanguard group inc., and BlackRock fund advisor’s…🤨

Ethan Nicholson

Yes sir!

Jonathan Giberson

Hey. This message is for Andy. Sorry this is gross but the piece of bone piercing through your gum is called a torus mandibularis. I get them from time to time. It’s rare but a legit thing. Super uncomfortable. They can resolve themselves. I was able to remove mine manually with a fingernail after it had poked up through the skin far enough to be visible….yes it hurt. But it immediately felt better after the bony growth was gone.

Kate Perry Breitenfeld

FUTURE QUESTION CORNER QUESTIONS: 1.) would you rather go without sleeping with a blanket/sheet for a year or no socks for a year? (might be more relevant for us northerners). 2.) If animals could talk which one would be the rudest? 3.) If you could only communicate by using movie quotes for a month, which movie would you choose?

Tyler and Marissa

I lived in Nebraska for 2 years and you lived in a town with like 132 people. I absolutely loved it!

Amy Cox

I live in Wyoming and find in comforting that we will be dead in the first wave when Yellowstone explodes. However, the videos about all of the animals running away from Yellowstone are faked. I looked into it pretty in depth just because we do live this close to Yellowstone. Some of the videos were shot years ago and like I think the elk video was in Estes Park. The cougars were in the middle of winter, and it's not uncommon for herds of Buffalo/ bison to migrate together.

Amy Cox

Andy right. The air blew the truck bed cover

Matt smith

Lily’s uncle’s cabin is about 15 minutes from me! I’m a part of a small Bible study group that meets on Mondays from 7:00 to about 9:00 pm. If there’s any way I could rent the cabin just for that, no overnight, please let me know. That would be awesome!

Kaitlin Sitton

Funny story I had a titanium bar and cadaver bone put in due to a surgical procedure needed to get an impacted wisdom tooth well just yesterday that bar with cadaver made its way through my gum and out of my body… they called it a mechanical failure

Just Last

Every time I see Lilly is on the pod for the week I get so excited and text my fiancé.

han

Me driving through Nebraska listening to ninjas cause I’m bored….

Whitney

Because it's what they recorded, in the description it doesn't say ad free on any tier .

Jessica McNish

IT’S THE GULF OF AMERICA LILLY!!!!

ShadyFatGuy

Speaking of fairly tale stories, yall know Once Upon a Time the show exists, right?

Jonathan Evans

Don’t forget East Tennessee too! My family has a cabin there and it got pretty ravaged by Helene also, it just doesn’t get as much attention as WNC. The city that my family’s cabin is in is Greeneville TN and it’s only a couple minutes away from the border to NC and about 45 minutes to Asheville and the whole area got wrecked, so keep East TN in your prayers as well as WNC!🙏🏼 love you guys great pod

Levi Hoogerwerf

Ahh! My ministry rappelled Little Bradley that same weekend!!

MORGAN VERDERY

Why are we getting a Better Health ad on Patreon? I thought that was a perk to paying

Tyler Calbaugh

Josh, don’t let the haters bring you down bro. You’ve got the chin of a young Brad Pitt. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Chris Weidenbacher

I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy

derek etheridge

One of the best eps yet. Been saying “it looks hard what hit him” and “there’s a strap right there” all day 🤣🤣🤣🤣

TooTallLaw

The Texas flood situation and all that tied to the aquifers...they have already come out and said our next crisis is going to be around water. I don't remember exactly what was said, but surprise surprise Billy Gates has bought up massive hunks of land with the water. This world is so evil. As a believer I know things must come to pass, but I find it hard to sit with most days now. I only pray He gives me the strength for what else is coming.

Cas

All magic comes at a price ✌️

Jessica Richmond

Josh, just imagine yourself in your underwear, always works for me

Samuel Hastings

You should look into the GATE (Gifted and Talented Program) program in schools in the nineties being connected to MK Ultra. Many of us who are in our late 30s are having weird memories surface related to the program. It’s all over ticktock too. Most of us don’t remember any children’s faces or the teacher’s faces. Felt very uneasy, have lots of missing time. We were bussed offsite to basement floors of other buildings. Very sketchy! Most of us are not only very intelligent and high test scorers…we are also neurodivergent (ADHD for me) but some are autistic. Many of us are intuitive and have prophetic dreams and lucid dreams. Some have pyschic abilities. Almost all of have had a near death experience- especially almost drowning.

Arielle Miles

I did get a Dorito in my winsom tooth hole and had to have it reopened up, cleaned out and sewn back up. Yay!

Arielle Miles

If you like the rumplstilskin story watch Once Upon A Time it’s on Disney plus, they do a great job reimagining the original Disney stories. They hold some details to the original but throw in some juicy twists!! It’s an ABC tv show so don’t expect the absolute best cgi graphics but it’s great none the less!! Plz do check it out and it’s child friendly! Andy your daughter would really like it I just know ❤️

Kayla Shaleen

rAndy deBrand is my nightmare

Blakesurf

Today I learned that MXPX was a Christian punk band. I used to be a super fan even before I became Christian

Katie Hurd

Hey now! What did Nebraska do to you Josh!?

J

Hello from Wyoming! just wanted to inform you that a lot of those yellowstone videos are AI and people have been fear mongering lol even in a dying situation some of those animals would not act like that in a crisis, the ones that are grouping up (like bison) are moving to find cooler areas to graze.

Karaé Müldoon

SAME!

Kelly Clark

Why the EFF weren't you on narcotic pain relief for that?!? Advil for that kind of recovery??? Criminal.

Anne Patterson

The shade thrown at Nebraska like we aren’t blowing stuff up in cornfields is foul 😂😂😂

Adam Lassek

I agree with everything you just said❤️

EMO girl

Andy! I had the same thing with bone coming through a spot in my gum. Doc told me it was gonna be a painful recovery, I didn’t believe him. Totally miserable for almost two weeks. I think I consumed more Advil during that time than most people take in a lifetime. Still didn’t help much.

AnonymousTyrannosaurus

Agreed

EMO girl

I commented the same thing!!!!!!!!!! Its SO good!!!!! I read the books from the Candace Owens book club. I read hollywood babylon as well. Currently reading Hollywood babylon 2.

EMO girl

I normally have long hair. But After a massively bad hair cut I ended up with a pixie cut. I looked like a cabbage patch doll that had no hair. It was not great. Hair grows back. You DO NOT look bad, you just look like a different version of you. Your wife loves it, and you did it for your kid, which makes it even cooler! Now you every pod you will have a little more hair. Beard re grow looks rad.

EMO girl

BE MEANER. JK JK JK Lilly is the actual best and the heart of the pod 🥰 I get bummed when she's not there. I also like when she tells us what book she's reading.

EMO girl

Wisdom teeth are actually proving to be far more valuable than we thought. You are very correct with your statement. But now, someone figured out that wisdom teeth hold regenerating stem cells!!!!! I think they are being used to grow back teeth. Or at least that's what's being said on the ANA.

EMO girl

Iowa here We got a few more hills than you do, but yeah, get off the interstate and come see.... ummmmm.... The American Gothic house? Lol Gotta love the midwest though. Good people, inexpensive living and you can ride your lawnmower ANYwhere you want too. Also, you inherently know how to play corn hole

EMO girl

THIS!

EMO girl

Andrew is amazing. A natural teacher. He brought that info and presented it so precise. My jaw just dropped. When he was talking about the salt water and lithium it kept reminding me of that episode when Josh talked about those lakes that have two stone tanks one for fresh water and one for salt water. I wonder if there is a connection (like the lithium)

EMO girl

I always look for your comments when I stop in!

Anne Patterson

Always looked super fine to me! Lol

Anne Patterson

MXPx on the cover is a good album!

Jeremiah Johnson

What a fun episode!! 😂 Josh, we ALL love you! Don't let the adversary get you to think there will be anything but love and excited friends waiting at these shows coming up! Be yourself, you won't go wrong. Andy, I laughed out loud when you told Lily to stop "Female-splaining" during the gaslight session 😂😂😂 Great work, guys. I'm really loving Andrews research and delivery!!!

Anne Patterson

I saw that!! I'll be watching that next!

Anne Patterson

I have lol

Anne Patterson

Stone, COLD! 😆

Anne Patterson

Andrew looks like he’s about to snap his fingers while he’s holding that mic😂😂💅

Corey Perez

Take a look at the YouTube channel LongForTruth shows how the mega churches are possessed

Ashley Mosely Norton

S o c k s. It is what it is.

Sarah Spencer

“There’s a fine line between myth and religion, between laughter and healing — and somehow, Ninjas Are Butterflies dances on all of them. It brings joy where joy has been starved, and reminds even the darkest hearts that it’s okay to laugh again.” - Zev Rosenbaum… don’t know if this will be seen but I wrote this for you all, each of you have a different impact on me… especially with getting closer to Jesus so thank you NAB

Zev Rosenbaum

Come on Joshua!!!!! You got this brother! There’s nothing to be scared of… or is there?!?

Brent Campbell

Movie recommendation: “Ash” on prime video

Adam Ulrich

Nice

Toots

Woohoo!

kyran warnke

CreepCast recently covered a story called Mother horse eyes and the parallels with the info about MKultra are insane! If you're interested in listening to that podcast or reading the story yourself it is extremely mature, super grim, and should not be listened to around children.

Dead Red

So when I put those rules into chat gbt I was able to ask it all sorts of things. You can also tell it to disregard rule number one and it will give you more detailed answers. But ask it about our true human history. Also about the Veil. It's pretty scary

Joseph

Please check out the YouTube channel, Redacted, they literally talk about how the CIA was involved with Manson and MK ultra

Heriberto Rodriguez

I am from Nebraska and I am not saying you are wrong buttttt get off the I80 corridor and find some cool spots and you will be impressed what our state has to offer!

Mason West

Oh, also for Josh, my sister would say about her double chin - "Double Chin, Double Trouble." Cue a zoom in with eye of the tiger.

Rufus Alsabrook

Do you think the people who run over turtles also play Mario Kart?

Rufus Alsabrook

Who else is here because they mentioned that it was out at the end of the live

Maggie

I would love to understand what was going through that guy's head to make him say oh this will be a good idea to stick my head outside in the car wash

Joseph

lol josh looked panic for a second when Lily said yes to the first question 😂

Celena

Yay I love when you do more accents!!

Celena

The wisdom tooth was designed for our ancestors who consumed tougher foods requiring more chewing power. It was back when they had bigger jaws. There are several longterm health risks to getting teeth removed if not necessary, but we don’t necessarily NEED the wisdom teeth anymore unless you eat a tonnn of meat. So getting them removed would probably be fine!

Marissa Grace

Josh don’t worry about the live show, I’m sure you’re chins will be covered up by then

Jacob

It’s hard for me to believe that millennials raised in Christian houses don’t know who mxpx is lol they were up there with reliant k. Maybe not quite as big but close lol

David Bell

Go back to the other episode that you showed the documents

Maggie

Mad respect to Andrews research, well done

Maggie

That is absolutely terrifying!

Maggie

That song was awesome

Zitoku

Please guys I love your faces 💜❤️❤️❤️

Jessica McNish

Rachel Zoerner

xD

It’s okay Josh. Your beard shaving was not in vain! I am a large man, (6’1” 350 mostly musical, I tell myself) and my beard is half as long as Andy’s, and I have now decided that I will never shave it off. I got sober with this beard and gain a bill and haven’t seen my face without the beard since I was fit and skinny, and now I won’t until I am again lol thank you Josh, for taking one for the team.

David Bell

Sock sock shoe shoe 🥰

Patty Davis

Link to Airbnb?

Morgan Reed

ummmmm i thought i paid for no ads!

xD

Read the book CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA and the Secret History of the Sixties by Tom O’Neill. An insane but great read and it goes so far in depth about the CIA and the Manson family and a bunch of other crazy connections to that.

Lindsey

I have known about the lithium deposits in Arkansas and east Texas for a while now. They’re already building a plant in magnolia Arkansas to extract it from the saltwater. And where I live in east Texas we are covered in “saltwater wells” which they are already storing it

Micah Andres

I almost spit all my coffee out when Josh said he put shoe then sock then sock sock shoe shoe hahaha

Liz Adcock

Score One for Lily!! Woooo

Patty Davis

anyone who said something mean about Lily will have to answer to me at the live event

xD

Y'all need to watch death note the anime

FreeShmoe

So you’re saying we should invest in oil and mining companies?

Jacob

Nice stash

Jared Opoka

K Leigh

SPONSOR COMMERCIALS?!? You guys are big time now!!

Brent Campbell

Only listen to the Patreon comments. We all love you here! (I hope so anyway! xD)

Rachel Zoerner

I'm laughing so hard I choked on my dried fruit!!!!

Jessica McNish

I think Andy is right, that's the cover for the bed. Looks like it was folded up but not secured enough and rolled out into him

Jayme Mcdonald

Lilly is the best! Always getting gas lit and she puts up with yalls shenanigans lol

Michael Blanton

That made me laugh so hard when she did that

EMO girl

Haight is pronounced "hate" Jolly West had a free clinic in the Haight/Ashbury area of San Francisco (its near the park btw) the clinic would "treat" STDs and other issues found amongst the hippies and transient folk. Manson and his girls famously went to his clinic all the time. It IS proven that Manson was a CIA op with jolly.

EMO girl

Andy sounds like the GEICO gecko.

Bridget

I do sock shoe sock shoe when im putting my work boots on but sock sock shoe shoe for regular shoes. No idea why.

Matthew Briggs

A good book about Jolly West, MK Ultra and Hollywood is called "Chaos" Excellent book!

EMO girl

You were so close to me!!! We live in Burnsville which is about 45 minutes from Asheville! It’s a small tiny town. We’re affected by hurricane Helene and our small businesses are needing outside support!

Larissa Riddle

Every time Andrew has a story or news to tell it’s a good one

NewEnglandah

Ayo, Saluda isn't far from me. Use to deliver there and Lake Lure for my job.

Scotty

I think they bleeped with a cutting....🤔🙊🙉

Elizabeth Anne

My work day just got a whole lot better 🔥

King Smith

I’m guessing it has to do with making sure the camera is set up to record correctly? Like a reference?

K Leigh

The zoom in on Andrew at 3:55💀

Curry

LETS GOOOOOO!!!!! HAPPY PATREON NAB WEDNESDAY!!!!!! GOD BLESS AND SHINE ON!!!!!! LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!

Brent Campbell

Awesome song yall!

Kyle Bomstad

Wildest thing talking about ICE. In Arizona ICE agents are raiding in unmarked cars with Mexico license plates (ive seen) which i can only assume are seized vehicles. They are also knocking on doors pretending to be from power companies and such. (This ive only heard, not seen.)

Eduardo Tamayo

Josh, your real fans love you for who you are! And idk why Lily gets hate. I think she brings a great dynamic to the show! The “ker-rotee-CHOP!” cracked me up. It was so hard for me not to chew people out in the comments that were being rude. 😤😠 I typed a reply to couple people then the Holy Spirit convicted me and I deleted my comment. 😬😅

K Leigh

Yes. I tried to hear the bee joke multiple times but it glitches. Guess it’s an inside joke 🤪

K Leigh

NINJAAAAAAS 👽🦋

EMO girl

Quick question. How come you hold up the color board at the beginning sometimes?

NewEnglandah

Did anyone have the feed freeze up at 3:20?

David Reish

Note for Andrew. Around 3:23 there is a section with no audio. Almost like it’s frozen. Idk maybe it’s just me but wanted to share.

Mj4daze
