Good conversations for unpacking how disgraceful the Catholic Church is.

Not really sure why two people who have left the Church feel the need to do a podcast about it. I thought they’ve moved on? They clearly don’t have any understanding about what the stances and teachings of the Church actually are. I guess they don’t have anything better to do with their time.

I love the raw and real conversations in this podcast. Both Anne and Stephanie are so fun together. I wish I had this podcast in my Catholic days. Thank you for your rich, Non-judgmental, and funny conversations.

I’ve been looking for a lapsed Catholic podcast. Glad I found this interesting and often funny show.

Oh my stars, loving Lapsed! As a Lapsed Catholic, this podcast puts me in a time-warp. It’s fun to reminisce on my Catholic upbringing, and it’s strangely drawing me closer to my Catholic roots. I prayed to St Anthony the other day when I couldn’t find something and haven’t done that in ages. So many things I never even really registered— like no, we do not read the Bible, and that’s why I have no idea what’s in that thing. And yes we are obsessed with Mary and nobody else gets her. I feel like Anne and Steph give me permission to embrace my cultural Catholicism even though I’m now a practicing Unitarian, and I just love the sense of community I feel when listening.

Great show, very relatable, Anne and Stephanie are awesome. I highly recommend for former/lapsed Catholics and their loved ones (especially if they weren’t raised Catholic). It can be so hard to put into words the experience of growing up Catholic and leaving but these two manage! I hope they keep it going!

Funny, Comfortable, and Interesting. Very healing.

I too was raised Catholic so the concept of this podcast seems relatable. it feels like listening to friends. My only critique is the “up-speak”. Ending each sentence as a question really bugs me? I probably wouldn’t continue listening, but, I’m the 18th reviewer? Hopefully they will get the message?

It just feels like home. Everything they talk about is something I relate to. All the experiences. There’s some pain in it but mostly catharsis, healing, and freedom. I’m so grateful for this podcast.

If you have left the church then why do you care enough to make a podcast? Both of these women have a deeply flawed understanding of what the Catholic Church actually stands for.

Anne and Stephanie, I want to hang out and be friends and talk about Catholic School and Polish Catholic Babcis together! Love this.

I’m not Catholic, but still found the conversation to be fascinating and relatable. Eager to hear more!
