I Hate James Dobson

Howdy pardners! Today, Jake and Brooke take a dip into the world of true crime as they discuss the recent Netflix Documentary "The Death of the Pastor's Wife", and how it ties in to Love & Respect, and the extended Dobson-verse more broadly. Spoilers for the documentary contained within. Go watch that first, it's worth your time. Even if Netflix isn't worth the money anymore - they want you to pay how much for streaming? Remember when Hulu was free? Now that's a true crime story.Check out our patreon! patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonOr go to ihatejamesdobson.com for all our linksMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: T4HUVECB2POQEQDG Hosted on Acast.

We are so back, everyone. And this might be the episode that breaks Jake, or at least one where they find a new opp. Today, Jake and Brooke talk about the putrid publication "Love & Respect". It gets really dark and Jake "full Muppet" (their own description). This may be your favorite - or least favorite - episode, depending on how much of a masochist you are. Either way, we are in this together.Check out our patreon! patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonOr go to ihatejamesdobson.com for all our linksReferences:Gregorie, S. W. (2019, January 14).

This third and final novel puts Jake and Brooke's mental fortitude to the test. We finally get the answers to questions no one was asking, like "What happens to Kevin Tolbert?" (nothing) and "Will Matthew Adams finally face justice?" (kind of). All that and more in this episode.Check out our patreon! patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonOr go to ihatejamesdobson.com for all our linksReferences: Gonya, D. (2017, Jan 10).

We're unfortunately back, back, back, again with another Dobson novel. It's a sequel to his first novel, "Fatherless", and it's somehow even hornier than last time. It's also a poorly written mystery, and entirely ineffective social critique - all in 1!

I feel like the title really says it all on this one, folks. Dobson wrote a novel about eugenics. It's wildly horny. It's pretty bad. Jake and Brooke will tell you all about it - and also a lot about sandwiches. That's mostly unrelated.Check out our patreon! patreon.com/ihatejamesdobsonOr go to ihatejamesdobson.com for all our linksMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/mood-maze/trendsetterLicense code: 9OT2MTBHWWSRZP5Shttps://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/get-that-thingLicense code: CLTQBJCDSM2QEAWO Hosted on Acast.
