Perdition City Station
Jarad and Julie travel through the theology of the afterlife by train, bus, auto, ferry, and on foot. First stop Perdition City Station, last stop? Who knows?
They will be joined by cats, an occasional guest, ghosts, and a dead guy named Morty who came to hang out one Halloween and never left.
Come for the laughs, stay for the suffering.
This podcast contains some adult language and situations.

Slewfoot: Getting the Devil You Choose
This week Julie and Jarad discuss Slewfoot by Brom. You know how much we talk about giving power to Hell and reserving none for Heaven? This book is a great example of the ramifications of that theology (among many other things.) Give it a read then give this episode a listen.
We also go on many tangents, like the difference between Southern and New England horror. So join us and let us know what you think about the book and the themes, our tangents, or Jarad's strategy for fixing his broken phone.
