Dear Humans,
Jesus and I sit down with the man who once said, âThe question isnât âIs there a God?â The question is âWhy do people believe in God?ââ
Thatâs right. Penn Jillette is on the God Pod!
Not to oversell it, but it might just be the greatest thing youâll ever witness in your entire life. Seriously. If youâve ever wanted to watch Penn Jillette mock God to his faceâŠthis is your moment.

Hereâs what we got into:
Faith and doubt â Penn shares his real thoughts on religion, atheism, and why he respects believers who actually walk the walk.
Do Penn and Teller hang out offstage? â Youâll find out. Their dynamic is fascinating and refreshingly un-Hollywood.
How they made it big â The unlikely road from street performances to a long-running Vegas residency. They still canât believe it.
Bob Dylan deep cuts â We asked for one favorite. He gave us a whole playlist. Itâs delightful.
If Bullshit! came back â What would Penn call out now? From conspiracy grifters to political hypocrisy, heâs still on fire.
His new novel, Felony Juggler â Coming May 6. Pre-order it now!
I hope you enjoy watching this episode as much as we did recording it. Thanks, humans!
Love,
God

Comedian and commentator Pete Dominick stopped by for a divine check-in, and things got real.
He opened up about his work helping veterans and men in crisis. Then he looked Me and Jesus in the eye and asked, âWhere were You when I needed You?â And lo, the room got awkward.
Pete also shared the daily routines that keep him sane in a collapsing world, and stories from his time hanging with comedy legends like Lewis Black and Artie Lange. The manâs seen some things.
And yes, we talked about Donoldâs big tariff collapse. Pete saw it coming. A lot of us did.

Dear Humans,
Karan Soni once played My assistant on Miracle Workers. Now instead of pretending with Steve Buscemi, heâs talking to the real thing.
We talked about his new film, A Nice Indian Boy, and what it means to navigate family, culture, and identity in a country that feels like it's falling apart.
We also touched on tariffs, current events, and how anyone is supposed to stay joyful when everything around them is burning.
Itâs funny. Itâs thoughtful. It might be the calmest thing Iâve published all week.
Take a breath. Press play.

Dear Humans,
Today, Jesus and I sit down with social media star, author and Bible scholar Dan McClellan, whose new book The Bible Says So: What We Get Right (and Wrong) About Scripture's Most Controversial Issues drops April 29.
Dan breaks down what the Bible really says about hot-button issues like abortion, slavery, lying, and homosexualityâŠand how scripture often contradicts itself. He also shares how he went from being raised agnostic to becoming a Mormon, and what most people get wrong about Mormonism.
If you're skeptical about a Mormon writing a book like this, just wait until you hear what Dan has to say. There are smart, left-leaning folks in every faith tradition, even the ones you wouldnât expect.
Donât miss The Bible Says So when it hits shelves April 29.
Love,
God

Heâs thrilled to speak directly with God and Jesus so he can finally say whatâs been on his mind: stop spinning the Bible to justify cruelty.
We also put John on the spot: What would you say to Elon Musk if you spoke to him directly? As you might expect, he nails it.

Rejoice, for I bring thee tidings of great schadenfreude: Elon Musk hath lost a whole Bill Gates.
1. He Did This To HimselfTeslaâs stock hath crashed over 40% since December, wiping out $111 billion of Elonâs fortune. Turns out, investors donât love it when a CEO ditches his own company to spend his days boosting Nazis and banning journalists.
And who smote him most? His best bro Don-old. Trumpâs new tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico are wrecking Teslaâs supply chains, and the stock market took one look and said nah. Funny how licking fascist boots always ends in you getting your face stomped.
Yet despite losing more money than the entire net worth of Bill Gates, Musk remains the worldâs richest idiot. Will he learn? Nay. He shall keep wreaking havoc and pretending he isnât the dumbest rich guy alive.
Spotted on the London Underground. 2. This Week on The God PodThis week, we were LIVE here on Substack while recording! Huge thanks to everyone who listened inâwe canât wait to see you all again for future live stream events!
On todayâs episode:
đ„ We react to Donoldâs State of the Union and why all this talk about ânormsâ needs to end (Except for Norm MacDonaldâheâs up here in Heaven and keeping us entertained!)
đ„ Donold goes after Canada for no good reasonâand history has taught us, Canada doesnât back down from a fight.
đ„ God offers a crazy idea: What if Dems gasp broke some rules?
đ„ Why itâs ridiculous that Republicans are canceling in-person town hallsâbecause cowards fear their own voters.
đ„ Godâs favorite video games right nowâbecause sometimes even the Almighty needs to escape reality.
đ„ Why our flock has grown so quickly over the past few months here at Letters From God.

Dear Humans,
Another day, another disaster waiting to happen. Donold wants Boeing to rush a new Air Force Oneâbecause what could possibly go wrong? Inflation is âbackâ (according to Donold), people are apparently flipping eggs like real estate, and Sean Duffy is making up more lies about air safety.
Oh, and if Jesus came back? Yeah, letâs just say it wouldnât go well.
Letâs get into it.
1. Topics include:The Department of Government Evil (DOGE)
Donold wants Boeing to rush a new Air Force One
What Donold is really saying when he admits inflation is âbackâ
Are humans are buying up all the eggs just to resell them?

Dear Humans,
Sometimes, the universe delivers a moment of pure, unfiltered schadenfreude so powerful that even God and Jesus canât handle it. This was one of those moments.
Elon Muskâs own son obliterated Donold in the Oval Office, proving once and for all that even small children know to tell him to shut up and go away. And we, your benevolent deities, are here to watch it unfold together and laugh our divine asses off.
1. Even a Toddler Can See Through Donoldâs BSBaby X (or, as we prefer, Elonâs son) had a hot mic moment of the century.
"Shut up, go away." â A perfect summary of how the world feels about Donold.
Donold, of course, just stood there awkwardly, because heâs not used to hearing the truth.
The fact that this happened in the Oval Office makes it even funnier.

Dear Humans,
Itâs only been 17 days since Tangerine Palpatine somehow returned, and the United States is in a full-blown crisis. Planes are dropping from the sky, Donold wants to build a casino in Gaza, and a foreign billionaire is the shadow president. But take heart! Weâre looking to the helpers.
1. People Fight Back Against President MuskWe watch some powerful and hilarious moments from Democrats dissing the shit out of Felon Musk as they protest at the Treasury building. Watch us laugh as Ayanna Presley calls Elon a âNazi nepo baby.â

Dear Humans,
While it may feel like an eternity, itâs only been TEN DAYS since Americaâs worst President returned to the White House. Itâs become clear that you all died in 2016. And yes, this is Hell.
As creators of the Universe, we can exclusively confirm the answers to all of the questions youâve been pondering over the last few days.
1. Trump Supporters Getting Fired Or DeportedWe expose how Donoldâs very expensive and cruel racism managed to raise coffee prices.
God attacks the racist masculinity complex and defines what it really means to be a man.
People who voted for Trump are now tragically being either fired or deported.
In light of Trump renaming the Gulf of Mexico, God has a new, official name for the United States of America and Texas.
And we wrap with some uplifting news⊠because we have to have things to look forward to for this planet!
