Patricia, Lloyd, and guest host Gordon are joined by Pierre Burmester from Australia, creator of the All Along The Watchtower web series, for a panel discussion about the importance of education in the post-JW landscape. The team also listens to and discusses some excellent voicemails, and they discuss the Slippery Slope fallacy.

For this episode, JW Podcast hosts Patricia, Lloyd, and Louise discuss the Jehovah’s Witness judicial process with special guest Gordon, aka Toledo Squad.

Afterwards, the hosts delve into some phenomenal listener voicemails. Finally, Lloyd provides an update on his endeavors with the UK Charity Commission, and Louise gives details on a new public pressure group starting in Canada.

Patricia, Lloyd, and Louise are joined by Brett Griffin-Young for a discussion about parenting: how it is approached by Jehovah’s Witnesses, the way a JW upbringing affects people born into the religion, and the challenges and rewards of raising children as ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses. Afterwards, in the newest Fun with Fallacies segment, the hosts examine the “argument from ignorance/God of the gaps” fallacy, including how to spot it in JW rhetoric and how to move past it toward a more productive debate. Finally, Louise updates us on her recent foray into peaceful activism on the local Kingdom Hall level, and Lloyd shares some news on a letter he submitted to the UK Charities Commission.

Patricia, Lloyd, and Louise discuss the massive leaked document that came down from Bethel about a week ago.

We also listen to several voicemails and weigh in on each.
