We believed we were the generation that would never experience death. We also were moon walking, wearing leg warmers, dressing like the guys in Miami Vice or RATT. If you dodged Satan, the Smurfs, led a 'double life,' know all the words to Purple Rain and still knocked on doors Saturday mornings... join us!

The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses claim they're built on spirituality; a theocratic infrastructure that goes back to Jesus and the apostles in the first century. So why does it look like a modern day corporate environment, including sales people, middle management and more? TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
This month's spiritual feast features Governing Body member and confirmed liar, Geoffrey Jackson using illustrations on eating, airplanes and charging your cell phones to define 'spirituality.' Included are updates on your money and free labor in Britain and a music video proving they rob young people of their dreams. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
This month's spiritual food from the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses encourages us to 'elevate' our thinking to match the way Jehovah thinks. Minus genocides, teaching false things for decades and much more. They show us what it means to have 'elevated thinking' by taking us to .... King David?

Our latest installment of wise counsel from the 'faithful & discreet slave' of Jehovah's Witnesses includes deadly warnings on your baby's pacifier, how their version of 'truth' is open for debate (?) and the Governing Body's future life as mighty warrior kings!

Outside of passing bread and wine, the Annual Meeting of Jehovah's Witnesses is the most important event of the year. In this installment, the Governing Body exceeds expectations by playing trivia games about them, encouraging 'free thinking,' and previewing their new video series to the masses. Birthday's are EVIDENTALLY still bad. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
In a precursor to the Annual Meeting, the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses rolled out fellow King Priest Samuel Herd to tell millions of people about their poor baptism rates, special conventions vs. international conventions and how we should crave their spiritual food.

Despite Jesus taking questions in the Gospels and guys like Abraham questioning God himself, Jehovah's Witnesses are not allowed to question the eleven men making up the Governing Body about.... ANYTHING. Why is that? What happens if they do? TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
This month's spiritual food features reassurance that Jehovah himself will comfort each of us during times of trial by reminding Witnesses why their lives are so miserable... and how they should be like Moses. Ironically, this month's host never mentions how the Governing Body is the source of so much 'discomfort.' TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
Repugnant lowlights from the updated elder's handbook given to Jehovah's Witness elders worldwide, including what the Governing Body may allow YOUR child to be exposed to at your local Kingdom Hall. A must listen for JW parents. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
The leaders of Jehovah's Witnesses have been predicting the end of the world since the late 1870's. They taught millions of people that they would never die, but would be ushered into a paradise earth. The November 2025 Watchtower changes it all again, admitting that none of this will happen in most people's lifetime. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
After over a century of villifying higher education, ruining futures and robbing people of potential, the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses under Jesus Christ direction, suddenly decided their people can go to college. Governing Body Update #5 should leave everyone with a long list of questions... even as past generations of Jehovah's Witnesses watch on in anger.

The August 2025 JW Broadcast is the gift that keeps on giving. After asking Jehovah's Witnesses to set up recurring payments to the organization, Governing Body member Stephen Lett teaches us how to be hospitable like they are, why we should be like the prophet Hosea and encourages us to sing along to the new music video showing sisters performing free labor!

In the August 2025 JW Broadcast features future king priest Stephen Lett walking back his earlier comments on babies being like Satan and wraps it up by telling Jehovah's Witnesses that God let's them breath, so they should set up recurring monetary payments to the Governing Body!

There is a long list of things that embarrassed me as a Jehovah's Witness, but I hone in on three that not only made (make) me cringe, but were instrumental in waking me up from the religion. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
Recent flashes of 'new light' are changing the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses. We give you three reasons why the Governing Body's desperation is palpable. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
Despite a 100% failure rate on end of world predictions and flip flopping doctrinal changes, the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is going to remind us all to be faithful. They cite King David as a great example. I don't think they know what 'faithful' means. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
Governing Body Update #4 features NEW LIGHT from heaven, that includes the claim that Heaven's Eleven don't make rules, please stop holding their hand... and with Satan on the loose, Jesus is focused on clinking glasses! TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is telling parents to protect children from 'disturbing news.' Who is protecting children from the Governing Body? TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
Plot twist: God himself exposes the entire organization of Jehovah's Witnesses as a man made scam... with two verses in the book they claim to hold dear. TWITTER: @exjwpodcast INSTAGRAM: survivingparadisepodcast
