The Atheist Experience is a weekly show in Austin, Texas geared at a non-atheist and atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.

The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.

  • The Atheist Experience 30.15 with Justin and JMike

    The Atheist Experience 30.15 with Justin and JMike
    Apr 13 2026
    In today’s episode of the Atheist Experience, Justin and JMike tackle "wizardly" philosophy, the hiddenness of God, and the dangers of religious bait-and-switches! From vampire lighting to the problem of a hidden cosmic dictator, the hosts challenge listeners to examine if faith is just a mask for mankind's worst instincts.
    Steve in OH fears the Noahide laws represent a literal Mark of the Beast. Justin identifies 666 as Nero and explains the tefillin's symbolic role. They debate if Daniel’s prophecies about Greece apply today. Can ancient laws predict geopolitics?
    Jason in OH argues for a mind-dependent universe based on the uniqueness of consciousness. JMike uses Occam's Razor to show that a deity adds no explanatory power. Does the experience of redness require a cosmic observer to exist?
    Push Back Ministries on TikTok argues mathematics proves a designer. JMike and Justin defend nominalism, viewing numbers as human inventions. They critique the Trinity’s logic. Can a hidden God be blamed for people losing their faith?
    Steph in Canada suggests truth is an ingredient of God. JMike mocks this with the "boom of who" to show labeling truth as an entity is arbitrary. They
    debate science as inquiry. Will the caller find a way to verify his ontological claims?

  • The Atheist Experience 30.14 with Secular Rarity and Dr. Darrel Ray

    The Atheist Experience 30.14 with Secular Rarity and Dr. Darrel Ray
    Apr 6 2026
    In today’s episode of the Atheist Experience, the secular Jesus Christ himself, Secular Rarity, and
    Dr. Darrel Ray rise from the tomb to dismantle biblical prophecies and discuss the necessity of trained secular leadership! From flying goats to religious attachment systems, the hosts put the supernatural under a microscope while navigating the treacherous waters of family deconversion.

    Steve in OH claims Daniel 8 predicts B-2 bombers via flying goats. Hosts challenge the special pleading and numerology involving football players. If conflicts always match text, does prophecy mean anything?

    Sean in KS discusses the Institute for Secular Leadership. Dr. Ray notes training prevents church-style guilt and power hoarding in groups. Can professional methods fix the leadership vacuum?

    RJ in CO argues biblical winds and demographics prove God. Hosts expose his double standards between the Bible and Quran regarding prophecy. Why is ancient myth more reliable than science?

    Hera in US asks about pushy in-laws. Dr. Ray discusses religious attachment and clear boundaries for partners. Will prioritizing harmony eventually lead to a loss of total autonomy?

    Big Ern in WA asks why women still suffer original sin. Hosts explore biblical misogyny and leading by example over command. If atonement is finished, why does gendered suffering remain?

    Michelle in NY compares losing God to a breakup. Hosts identify brain attachment systems and celebrate her personal agency. Can neurological awareness help soothe the wound of lost faith?

  • The Atheist Experience 30.13 with Godless Engineer and Jim Barrows

    The Atheist Experience 30.13 with Godless Engineer and Jim Barrows
    Mar 29 2026
    In today’s episode of the Atheist Experience, Godless Engineer and Jim Barrows deconstruct the bloody magic of Palm Sunday and the logic of substitutional atonement. From the "hostage negotiation" of salvation to the bizarre preservation of papal hearts, the hosts challenge believers to explain why a perfect deity requires such macabre rituals.

    Tiny Rick joins from TikTok to ask which ACA goals take priority. Hosts explain how values like secular humanism and church-state separation are vital when nationalism threatens government. Will focusing on these lead to a more rational society?

    Daniel in Mexico worries that on-screen pronouns create public friction. Hosts argue that normalizing identification supports the trans community and challenges systemic bigotry. Is avoiding social friction more important than respecting identity?

    Ann questions the validity of saints and the strange preservation of popes' hearts. Hosts discuss the absurdity of miracle verification and how relics are used for power. Can traditions built on magic provide a reliable path to truth?
