Holy Watermelon
Welcome to the Holy Watermelon podcast, where a Christian and an atheist talk about the weird and wonderful things that people do because of what they believe. It's a show about religious studies.
Join us, Katie and Preston, as we dive into the world of comparative religion. We use humor and research to have real, challenging, and uproarious conversations about the world's religious traditions and behaviors.
If you're interested in religious studies, learning about other people and cultures, or fun facts for your dinner conversation, tune in to our monthly episodes.
