  • Thanks Dad
    2025/08/28

    This one’s different. Not less Thunder, just a different storm. In this heartfelt episode, the Sons of Thunder look back on the life, legacy, laughter, and lessons of their dad—four years after his passing.

    It’s a conversation laced with nostalgia and humor (because of course he trolled them with Comic Sans, orange duct tape, and legendary golf course trash talk), but also filled with deep gratitude, honest reflection, and moments that will hit you right in the chest.

    From mission trips that moved mountains (literally), to childhood campouts in the living room, to sermons that reshaped how they see God, Anthony and Joseph invite you into the stories that made them who they are—and the man who made them laugh, dream, and believe bigger.

    This isn’t just a podcast episode. It’s a thank you note to a father, a mentor, a prankster, and a man whose faith still thunders through his sons.

    Listen with a smile. End with a lump in your throat.

  • Exorcism Fail
    2025/08/21

    The brothers dive headfirst (literally, if you ask Paul) into one of the wildest stories in Acts 19—the Seven Sons of Sceva getting wrecked, stripped naked, and sent running by a single demon who had a better grasp of theology than they did. Along the way, we invent a Delilah action figure (complete with betrayal mode), discuss whether Paul was secretly the first WWE headbutt champion, and discover why even demons shudder at the name of Jesus while most of us can’t stop treating Him like a lucky rabbit’s foot.

    It’s chaos, comedy, and conviction in equal measure. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and you’ll probably never read Acts 19 the same way again.

    The moral? Don’t be like the Sons of Sceva—because nothing says “revival” like running home bruised, beltless, and afraid.

  • The Oily Neighbor
    2025/08/12

    What do soda withdrawals, dolphin-free dolphin tours, and nosy neighbors named Janice have in common? Absolutely nothing… until you spend an hour with the Sons of Thunder.

    In this episode, the brothers go full investigative journalism (minus the journalism) on 2 Kings 4:1–7 — the miracle of Elisha and the widow’s oil. But this isn’t your Sunday school flannelgraph. We’re talking Gen Alpha kids asking for “skibidi vessels,” neighbors hiding their Pioneer Woman cookware, and Janice standing on a camel trough to spy through your window.

    You’ll hear:

    • The riveting tale of how God turned one tiny prophet’s oil jar into a retirement plan.
    • Why borrowing more stuff was actually the solution to a crippling debt problem.
    • How neighborhood gossip could have changed the course of biblical history.
    • A theological mic drop on faith, obedience, and why God refuses to fill already-full vessels.

    Also featuring: Dead Sea Dolphin Tours™ (“Disappointing on porpoise since… forever”), ravioli confessions, and a shocking amount of unsolicited Tupperware commentary.

    Buckle up, Thunder Buddies. This is the episode where miracles get thunderized, Janice gets exposed, and your faith might just get a refill.

  • THAT'S A NICE WALL
    2025/08/06

    What do cupbearers, perfumists, and a wall built in 52 days have to do with your family legacy? Everything.

    In this deeply hilarious and sneakily convicting episode, the Sons of Thunder dive into the book of Nehemiah and discover that sometimes the best way to fight the enemy is with a sword in one hand and a brick in the other. With the sarcasm of two brothers who probably fought over a bowl of ravioli, Joseph and Anthony unpack why Nehemiah’s leadership wasn’t just about construction—it was about calling.

    You’ll laugh at the made-up life of Leroy the perfumist, cry through stories about their late father’s legacy, and leave ready to fight for your family with a burdened heart and a countdown app.

    This one’s for the dads. For the men who think they’re not qualified. For the ones who feel tired, discouraged, or unsure. Nehemiah proves that great leaders aren’t born in palaces—they’re forged in burden, prayer, and obedience.

    In this episode:

    • How not to build drywall on a mission trip
    • Why your kids don’t need a perfect dad, they need a present one
    • The difference between fear and worry (and how Satan uses discouragement to destroy legacies)
    • What happened when Israel chose unity over expertise
    • Why building the wall next to your house still works today
    • A 52-day challenge that could change your entire family dynamic
    • And…why we’d totally sponsor a Gideon action figure with anxiety issues

    If you’re a dad, this is your blueprint. If you're a brother, a leader, or just a guy holding a sword and a hammer trying to figure it out—you’re in good company.

    Remember: You don’t have to be the best builder. You just have to start.

    🧱 Fight for your family. Build for your family. Leave a legacy that lasts.

    🎙️ This is Episode 6: “That’s a Nice Wall.”

  • Heaven's Left-Handed Hitman
    2025/07/29

    What do you get when you mix biblical violence, a left-handed savior, and an entire assassination plot that sounds like a deleted scene from Parks & Rec? You get Ehud, Israel’s stealthy, stabby deliverer—and you get this episode.

    In Heaven’s Left-Handed Hitman, the Thunder Bros. go deep (like dagger-into-belly deep) into one of the most bizarre, hilarious, and oddly inspiring stories in the Bible—Judges 3. The Moabites are in charge, Israel’s lost in a cycle of sin, and the only guy left on God’s bench is a southpaw from the “Right-Hand Tribe.” What could possibly go wrong?

    Oh, and did we mention King Eglon? He's so fat, the Bible goes out of its way to roast him. Literally. There’s poop jokes, satire, and a sword so lost in flesh it deserved a memorial service. You’re not ready.

    In this episode:

    • 🎯 Meet Ehud: Israel’s only judge with an Old Testament concealed carry license
    • 🔪 Learn how a homemade cubit-long dagger changed the future of a nation
    • 🤦‍♂️ Watch ancient security guards fail harder than modern customer service reps
    • 🧬 Discover how family drama, spiritual compromise, and intergenerational trauma still preach
    • 💬 Laugh at the absurdity, then cry a little when you realize God still uses people like Ehud…and people like you.

    Plus, you'll get a fake sponsor ad for Cutlery by Ehud (guaranteed to be dishwasher-safe and dagger-deep), and some heartfelt encouragement that what you call a weakness, God might just call your weapon.

    This one has theology, history, biblical satire, and the occasional digestive joke. But beneath it all? A message you won’t forget: God loves using the overlooked, the underqualified, and the underestimated. Especially when they’re left-handed.

    🎧 Listen now wherever you get your podcasts. 📺 Watch the dagger drama unfold on YouTube. 💥 Share it with your friend who thinks Leviticus is boring.

  • I'd Stay In Prison
    2025/07/22

    Why didn’t the prisoners run?

    In this episode of Sons of Thunder, the brothers dive headfirst into the unhinged, holy chaos of Acts 16—where chains fall, doors fling open, and nobody leaves. Paul and Silas are wrongly imprisoned, publicly beaten, and locked in the darkest cell… and they start singing. At midnight. In harmony.

    Then the ground shakes. Chains snap. Every cell door opens. But instead of fleeing, everyone stays. Even the guys who probably should have run.

    Why? What kind of presence makes convicted criminals sit still in an open cell?

    The brothers talk through prison worship, trembling fear, glory that breaks chains but demands reverence, and why Paul didn’t run—because staying might save the jailer. Oh, and we find out Silas might’ve been the worship leader on tour. Makes sense.

    Also featuring:

    • A Dead Sea snorkeling sponsor (perfect for people who hate marine life)
    • A bracelet brand forged in a midnight earthquake
    • A deep theological truth: “They didn’t just hear worship… they were undone by it.”

    We laughed, we cried, we stayed in prison too.

    So grab your glow-in-the-dark “Midnight Melody” bracelet, cue up your favorite prison hymn, and prepare to worship like the chains already fell off.

    🎧 Subscribe, share, and never forget your jailer.

  • 100+ Year Old Corpse
    2025/07/15

    Ever wondered what it would be like to carry a dead guy’s bones through the desert for 40+ years… in a box… with your entire youth group watching? Welcome to Episode 3 of the Sons of Thunder Podcast, where Joseph’s coffin is the surprise MVP of the Exodus.

    This episode is part Bible study, part stand-up comedy, part theological mic drop. The brothers dig into Hebrews 11 and Genesis 50 to unpack how Joseph’s bones literally preached a sermon through the wilderness, and how a corpse had more faith than most living people today. We also meet Obi Dunghill (unofficial pallbearer and Thunder legend), debate whether Moses packed the coffin next to his hiking snacks, and ask the question every Christian should be asking: Are your bones preaching louder than your words?

    Featuring:

    • Egyptian cotton (premium rebellion wear)
    • The debut of Holy Adjournments Co.
    • An angel with a do-rag
    • Emotional whiplash from laughter to conviction (you're welcome)

    Warning: This episode may cause spontaneous repentance, laughter-induced abs, and a deep urge to carry something that matters.

    🦴 Let the bones speak. 🎙️ Let the Thunder roll. 👕 Comic Sans still not approved.

  • Bezalel & The Hemorrhoids
    2025/07/08

    Ever wonder what happens when you steal the Ark of the Covenant? Spoiler: it ends in golden mice, raging hemorrhoids, and possibly an angel named Hemi whispering, “Told you so.”

    In this second episode of Sons of Thunder, your favorite unstable brothers dive deep into the story of Bezalel — the silent, Spirit-filled craftsman who literally gold-leafed the glory of God… and unknowingly built the most hemorrhoid-inducing object in biblical history. You’ll meet the Wrath Buddies' newest action figure (Bezalel: Tabernacle Tactician™), suffer through the unforgettable “Birthright Broth” soup ad, and be forced to reconcile how God uses people with no microphones and zero voice lines to shake nations.

    It’s irreverent. It’s theological (accidentally). It’s hilariously unhinged. And it might just be the first time you’ve heard the phrase “my imagination has hemorrhoids.”

    Like. Subscribe. And may your joy be louder than your dignity.

    New episodes every week.

    📖 Read 1 Samuel 5-6 & Exodus 31 if you want to pretend you already knew this stuff.

    ⚡️ Warning: Heresy is accidental. Emotional damage is likely.
