Ep. 21: Depression, Elf on a Shelf, and get $1 every time Noah says “like”

Listen below or subscribe on iTunes or Google Play

Episode 21 talks about depression, and depression within the Church specifically.  Why we don’t talk about it enough and why we need to talk about it more.  And in general, the Church’s hesitation to talk about anything that is vulnerable or deals with our struggles.

Noah’s Rant gets into how much people say “like,” including Noah himself, and offers you a chance to earn a $1 every time Noah says “like” on the podcast from here on how (legal fine print: starting in episode 22!)

Also make sure you get a say on what Flip Side listeners will be called, as the leader in the clubhouse is the Flippopotamuses!
