59: Fundamentalism, Mental Health, and Creativity 11.15.24

This week on Honestly, Dear Listener, we’re circling back around to how the way we were raised (in fundamentalist, Evangelical, Pentecostal Christians) has influenced the way we create now. We also dive into how the beliefs we inherited when we were kids continues to contribute to our mental health struggles.
On a lighter note, we also discuss the holes in our pop music upbringing, exploring what the rules were for what kind of music we were allowed and not allowed to listen to. We also discuss Carman-yes, that Carman.
