This episode is jam packed with toxic masculinity, as Claire is not present to add her balancing and civilizing influence to the show. She's off this week, so instead your three co-hosts, Alan and Riley and Brogan, discuss issue 11 of the comic and episode 9 of the AMC tv show. Lot's of bargaining in the marketplace of masculinity in this episode.

This week's episode of Preach! covers issue 10 of the comic and episode 8 of the AMC tv series.  Also, Preach will be changing format in 3 weeks. Since Preacher is ending its first season, the hosts of Preach! will be discussing new comic books in the off-season. Starting in three weeks, the hosts will be talking about a new comic book, covering it in graphic novel volumes instead of single issues. We will let you the listeners know what book we'll be talking about soon. If you have an idea for a book you'd like us to cover, please email the show at: Preacherpodcastguys@gmail.com

In this week's episode of Preach! your hosts discuss the second issue in the Until The End Of The World storyline, entitled When the Story Began.

This episode of Preach! A Podcast About Preacher covers issue 8 of Preacher, entitled All In The Family.

Sorry congregation, but one of our colleagues couldn't be with us this week and so the rest of your hosts have decided to postpone the show until he returns. Next week, on the 8th of July, we will release a double episode to cover this week's and next's episodes. Thanks for your patience with us.  

In this episode of Preach, your hosts discuss the sixth issue of the series and the fourth episode of Preacher on AMC. They discuss gendered violence and tonal inconsistencies in the episode, responsibility and its role in the issue, and Jesse's continued hypermasculinity. Also, we learn that Riley knows a thing or two about how one prepares to wear latex and that Alan knows too much about prepping for a bodybuilding show. Contact the show at preacherpodcastguys@gmail.com

In this first part of Preach! episode 5, the hosts begin the show with a conversation about the recent events in Orlando, Florida. Given the topic for this new issue of Preacher being discussed, and given how the recent tragedy in Orlando relates so closely to the topic of this issue, the hosts felt they had to speak out and to share their feelings about this unfortunate event. We thank you in advance for indulging us. In this conversation about issue five of Preacher, your hosts discuss the book's treatment of homosexuality, both in this issue and at large, and also the use of typography in dialog, as well as theories for the artistic inspiration for Jesse Custer.

In Part 2 of episode 5 of Preach, the hosts discuss the third episode of the AMC tv series Preacher. Your hosts wonder if the audience was finally introduced to Starr, and have lots to say about his introductory scene. They also talk about the use of the Word of God and Jesse learning that it has stakes, limits, and peril. Finally, Claire, Riley, and Brogan learn about the word swoleosis. Contact the show at preacherpodcastguys@gmail.com

A new host joins the show in this week's episode, Claire. Brogan, Riley, and Alan are thrilled to have her on board, and we're sure the Preach! audience will be as well.  In this episode your hosts discuss issue four at length, paying special attention to Root's demise, the appearance of De Blanc, the importance of eyes in the comic's artwork, and the overly phallic nature of the 1985 action movie classic Commando.  Episode 2 of the AMC TV series is also discussed. Everyone has some thoughts about the Saint of Killers, the show's clever use of music and its editing style, and Tulip. Oh, so much was said about Tulip.  Contact the show at preacherpodcastguys@gmail.com. Rate and review the show in iTunes, Google Play Music, and on Stitcher.

In the third episode of Preach! A Podcast About Preacher your hosts discuss the revelations about Cassidy found in the issue. Also, the hypermasculinity in the comic, specifically the homophobia inherent to hypermasculinity, is talked about at length, along with the presence of homosexuality and gay rights in American culture. Additionally, the morality of the comic is talked about, its banality and moral complexity. Sadly, Tulip is again oppressed by the patriarchy, both in how she is presented in the comic, and in how little the male hosts discuss her.  Your hosts also discuss the first episode of the AMC chat show Talking Preacher, but sadly the do not talk about the second episode of the TV show because one did not air over Memorial Day weekend. Much whiskey and Derrida was needed to console them.  If you have a question for the show, or an observation to give, please contact the show at preacherpodcastguys@gmail.com

Welcome to the second episode of Preach! A Podcast About Preacher. In this episode your hosts, Alan and Brogan and Riley, discuss the comic's second issue in great detail, with much to say about Tulip and masculinity that is so hyper.  Also they talk about the first episode of the new AMC tv series Preacher. Wow, do they have a mixed bag of opinions about this show. Hearts are broken, whisken is spilled, the presentation of Tulip is problematized, and Riley really, really likes the film Caligula.

In this first episode of Preach! hosts Brogan, Riley, and Alan discuss the first issue of the groundbreaking Vertigo comic book series, discussing it for literary merit, storytelling quality, and its adaptation into an AMC television series.
