Penn's Sunday School

Penn's Sunday School

Author: Penn's Sunday School Language: English Episodes: 100
Every Sunday, the conversation starts with the week's headlines and spirals out from there. On Penn's Sunday School, Penn Jillette and Matt Donnelly dive into whatever caught their eye or raised their blood pressure, from absurd religious news to the latest primate antics. Nothing is off the table if it’s funny, infuriating, or just plain weird. This isn't a rehearsed monologue; it's a live, meandering chat where listener suggestions actively steer the discussion, making each episode unpredictable. For those who want the full, unfiltered experience, the duo broadcasts a live video stream from Show Creators Studios every Sunday at noon Vegas time, offering a raw look at people just sitting and talking. The resulting audio becomes this weekly comedy and culture podcast, a record of that freewheeling session where arts, society, and sheer curiosity collide. It feels less like a produced show and more like you’re pulling up a chair to a table where the topics are as likely to be profound as they are ridiculous. Tune in for a dose of unscripted reaction, genuine laughter, and the occasional well-aimed rant.
