Meet Deconversion Therapy's Bonnie and Karen -

December 07, 2021 • Leah Janet • Season 4 • Episode 14

Deconversion Therapy is a comedy podcast about religion. Bonnie and Karen punch up at charlatans like Jim Bakker or Jerry Falwell Jr. They don't discuss real trauma rather they point listeners to other spaces for that. They have fun with old church memories and cover recent and past scandals and debacles.

They've been at it for 3 years now!

Growing up in the Southern Baptist church in South Florida Bonnie and Karen "met" when we they 1 year old (1969 or 70!). Both became Christians. Bonnie was always a bit more skeptical than Karen who grew up in a fully-Christian household.

Bonnie left, went back and then finally called it quits.

Karen became a missionary and seeds of doubt didn't arise until she was on the mission field in Thailand. It was a painful decade as things began to unravel.

Bonnie worked in Hollywood and has lots of stories. She now works in real estate.

Karen taught English at a university and still does mentors students online.
