    Don't mention it again!!
    Hi Eric, I do enjoy your show, so much! You have introduced me to Dr. Wolfe, Pastor John A, John Zmirak and many more, thank you!! Someday I hope to be able to save $ for a trip to a Socrates in the City interview. You bring such brave & intelligent people to tell their unique & amazing stories to no name, small town, regular folks like me. Thank you & your staff for giving me the opportunity to listen to & learn from these heroes of the free thinking world. Just one suggestion though.. You mentioned you aren't recognizing June as.. you know the "thing God detests" month. May I suggest, just don't mention? Don't acknowledge at all. Its almost over this year, but i've noticed there has been less focus on it this year. No weirdo rainbow flags w/ odd symbols everywhere (like last year) lurking around every corner of the huge, incredibly woke, place where I work. I almost threw up rainbows last year, there were so many posters , stickers, rainbow cupcakes etc.. I've not seen the rainbows & flags this year, so i wonder if its dying down ? Perhaps gotten quiet due to it being an election year & I live in the south? Any thoughts? Eric, when you say "we don't recognize June as Pr*de month", you are recognizing it!! Don't give the attention they crave! Ignore the weirdo stuff.. We celebrate June as the month for brides & traditional weddings! You think it coincidence they picked the month of June? Lets bring back the attention to the June brides!! Thanks! Jenn G in NC

    Antidote to woke virus— Bonhoeffer got me hooked
    Do we need more martyrs? He talks with many of most prescient Christian activists and authors — wish more people could agree on virus cures.

    Too many advertisements
    I used to love Eric’s show. Now the ads have ramped up to a point where it’s almost unlistenable. Come on, Eric. Quit the money grab!

    More guest, less Eric
    Eric, I have listened to you for many years, but not as much for the last one or two years. The main reason is that you talk so much about yourself and your own books. You are an excellent writer and speaker, and when I read or listen to you, I learn so much! However, when you are in the Interviewer role, it should be more about your guests than you. Just sayin’

    Episode with Larry Taunton!
    I was very impressed with Larry Taunton’s responses to what Jordan Peterson has said about Christianity. I think it’s also really important for us Christians to be very careful of listening to or following those who speak as though they know truth, but haven’t professed to receiving Christ themselves. The Bible says there will also be many false prophets in the last days that will deceive many. This is why it’s so important that we read God’s Word and stay in true doctrine so that we’re not deceived by human cunning. I really like Taunton’s comment that Christianity is not a system, it’s a Person. This was my favorite interview on this show!

    Propaganda
    Eric hosts people who misrepresent the truth and actually are causing harm in their communities. Hosting Mark Powell is an example of this. Mark Powell misrepresents the actual issues occurring in his congregation, defames people, and is causing great harm on purpose. He is not a man of god. He is fleecing a good group of people who were in a vulnerable state. He knows exactly what he is doing as an INTERIM pastor. He is using evil means and intimidation to attempt to coerce people. Eric is elevating Mark’s voice which is a terrible thing to do. Shame on you all!

    Eric, this guy is off base. Ezra has never been a controversial book. Talk to him about exactly what he believes. Nancy

    Listen and Learn
    I’ve learned so much listening to this podcast almost since it’s inception. He has had amazing guests over the years, many of whom I had never heard of, but who have so much valuable insight and knowledge to offer. That alone makes this podcast worth listening to regularly. Eric has grown as an interviewer. It’s true he does get excited and often interjects his opinions, but he seems to do this less than in the early days. Perhaps because he is so passionate, he can’t help himself. Even in some of his more awkward interviews, I give him major kudos, because he is putting himself out there. Unless you’ve done a podcast yourself, you have no idea what a vulnerable thing this is to do. Thank you Eric, for putting yourself out there, and helping us grow as listeners and critical thinkers!

    Blessing Gay Couples
    Like Balaam’s curses turned into blessings, could Catholic priests give a blessing that curses this life style choice? Could they incorporate what God says about the sin into their blessing and loose the Holy Spirit to change the hearts of these people?
  • mgreenz
    Tremendous!
    You won’t be wasting your time listening to Eric! His guest and insights are fantastic and spot on. Do yourself a favor and tune in.

    Hope you listen and wake up- communism is here - and at least 2 American generations are indoctrinated into it. May God save America and believers
  • Tsundoku Sensei
    Horrible interviewer
    Eric’s problem is that he thinks he’s funny. His jokes are constant and constantly cringeworthy. He is a bad interviewer and always interrupts his guests. And there are just too many ads. It’s a brutal listen.
  • MamaSab
    Great show
    The Eric Metaxes show is a wealth of information. He has all kinds of guests — political, spiritual, and even societal. I look forward to the guest lineup every week. Great show!
  • PC is Me
    Too many ads….
    More ads than value.

    Great Podcost
    Eric is truly gifted in bringing top notch guests and providing a proper world view.

    Christians are stepping up
    Thank our Lord Jesus Christ for Eric Metaxas. His voice, in the midst of all the secular madness in our world today, is a powerful one for the values that created the greatest country ever seen. We must speak and act in Truth and power or this Idiocracy will continue. Thank you, Eric.
  • Olive0824
    Don’t recommend, here’s why:
    Eric Metaxes is a very intelligent and highly educated man. He has top-notch guests on his podcast. But don’t think his skills as a writer transfer to podcasting. After listening to some of his shows, and trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, I’ve decided I won’t listen to him ever again. Eric has almost no interviewing skills whatsoever. He interrupts mid-sentence, rarely asks questions of his guests, and spends most of each podcast rambling about his opinions (which given his education are surprisingly superficial rather than nuanced and thought out). I’ve seen podcasters with much less prestige and education level do a far better job of listening to and conversing with guests. The most recent podcast with Naomi Wolf was so cringeworthy, I feel sorry for her suffering through that.
  • Hans Tinker
    Solid Christian Podcast
    I’d highly recommend this podcast to any believer who takes their faith seriously, disassociates with the current seeker sensitive church, and takes a stand against the woke ideologies in our culture today.

    Christ tattoo on body in Sudan
    Hey Eric! Love your show! Eric, did you see the news about a tattoo found on a 1300 year old body in the Sudan area? The tattoo was the Greek alpha and omega symbols as well as a “chi-rho” symbol which means Christ. Eric, thought you’d like this since the tattoo was in Greek and please excuse my ignorance of the Greek language if I’m not explaining this correctly. God bless!
  • Tracy H2
    Good, but those ads…
    The content is always good, but Geez! 14 minute interview filled to 47 minute podcast, all due to sooooo many ads! A bit much. Is advertising really that important?
  • Blueberry mom 1
    Eric rocks
    Thank you, Eric, for your important and timely interviews. I always enjoy your podcasts and learn so much about politics and faith and historic figures of both. Plus you are a hoot! Keep on keeping on - I’m in your corner! Lots of love and prayers - Candice
  • AmRaymond
    Interviews too short
    Eric has some good guests on but he talks too long before he gets to the interview & there are way too many ads.
  • Mom patriot
    Girl for what is right
    Im thankful for Eric Metaxas podcasts. He always gives credit to Jesus, he always stands for what is right. And his book Letter to the American Church is spot on! I listen to his podcasts always, gives great insight to relevant issues.

    Eric is a Patriot

  • WhOcArEs1122
    Great show but…
    Too many commercials for such a short program. Eric is an interesting guy and has good guests. Thankfully, you can skip the commercials but still annoying
  • too much true crime guy
    New guests
    Taking a chance on Auron and Egg was pretty gutsy. Glad to see some of these conservative types coming around.
  • ISTJreader
    Important
    Eric is a superior host! He asks thoughtful questions of his guests. He’s genuine and learned. I appreciate the important topics and the absence of what I find in many podcasts: silliness, crude language, and vitriol of all things Christian. This show is a breath of fresh, and smart, air and is refreshment for the weary. My favorite guest is John Zmirak. His articles are a wonder to read and reread. A powerhouse of a writer! Which reminds me…more books, please, Eric! I found great comfort from Miracles and Bonhoeffer is unforgettable. All of your books have been a delight for this avid reader.

    The Eric Metaxas Show
    Relevant, important, and detailed information on culture and society. Pays attention to detail. Coming from a Judeo Christian ethos/ worldview.
  • old lady geologist
    Problematic
    Usually I love your show, but today John Zmirak crossed the line. On multiple occasions he lied or, let’s just say he really stretched the truth. I think of him as a good man and I like his publication, and I know that Eric depends on him as a frequent guest. But he not only lied about the interview between Tucker and Mike Pence, (and I really can’t stand Mike Pence) but we need to be honest. Then, he proceeded to rant about Covid when his cultic devotion to Trump is completely unhinged and Trump to this day does not admit the problems he caused with his so-called vaccination and tacit agreement to the lockdowns. Topping everything off, he then writes off DeSantis as the lackey of neocons. So, I think I’ll unsubscribe while I cool off. Eric, part of the problem is that we think we’re always the only solution. Meanwhile we are fracturing ourselves and guaranteeing a loss in 2024. Thank you so much.

    Let the guests speak
    I usually like Eric, but his interview with Mallory was bad because Eric kept interrupting with stupid innuendos. Let the guests talk! Eric just wants to be funny and it detracts from the messages of the guests.
  • AmCanDeb
    An Exceptional Author and Podcaster!
    I LOVE Eric Metaxas and his books and his podcast. He’s thorough in his research. He’s both humble and hilarious. Albin is a FANTASTIC co-host; he both supports and contributes. I learn a lot, and I am encouraged and challenged. God bless them.
  • Panangiotides
    I never miss an episode!

    We love Eric Metaxas
    We recommend Eric to all our friends. My husband has read almost all of his books, and we go over them together for study. They are excellent. We recommend all of them, especially “Is Atheism Dead”, “Letter to the American Church” and “Bonhoeffer”.
  • chief recycler
    How could you not like Eric?
    Maybe…you might not like him, but you have to love him. He’s witty. Humble. And, provides passionate discussions with some of the most intelligent among us. Thanks for your hard work, Eric.
  • V-Formation
    Love this podcast!
    Eric’s show is one of the best available, mixing a strong biblical worldview with some humor. Any episodes including John Zmirak are a must listen, again including the most incisive and prescient takes on the current cultural topics. Entertaining and instructive!

    So inspiring. So packed with relevant information I need to make sense of the world. Eric’s perspective and insight are spot on. His wit and sense of fun make this podcast always entertaining.

    So refreshing
    Such a great podcast. You must read Eric’s book Letter to the American church. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Nefarious
    I saw the movie last Saturday in NC. It was truly a great movie of truth! I would really just like to understand why Glenn Beck was in it, even for such a brief spot. I don’t dislike Glenn, but he does not stand out as one of admiration.
