In God We Lust

Wondery

A luxury hotel pool attendant in Miami meets a married couple. The wife starts flirting with the young man...and pretty soon he is caught up in a love triangle, one that will have far-reaching results. The husband is Jerry Falwell Jr., member of one of the most famous evangelical families in America and president of a Christian university with a strict code of conduct. The affair is part of a pattern of questionable behavior that will threaten the Falwell family dynasty. From Wondery, the makers of The Shrink Next Door and Bunga Bunga, comes IN GOD WE LUST, a six part series about what the tabloids called “the pool boy” scandal. Co-hosted by Brooke Siffrinn and Aricia Skidmore-Williams, the duo brings their humor and distinctive style of their hit series EVEN THE RICH to a reported miniseries for the very first time.

All episodes are available now. You can binge the series ad-free on Wondery+ or on Amazon Music with a Prime membership or Amazon Music Unlimited subscription.

Our Editor's Take

What happens when a fantastic comedy duo pairs a historic sex scandal with a juicy spill-the-tea format? Wondery's hilarious and outrageous In God We Lust podcast, that's what. Hosts Brook Siffrinn and Aricia Skidmore-Williams cover the Jerry Falwell Jr. sex scandal. The risqué incident involved Jerry Falwell Jr., his wife Becki, and a hotel pool boy. This now-infamous scandal made national news in 2020 due to Falwell's involvement. At the time, he was the President of Liberty University. This shocking scandal led to his resignation.

But what can listeners expect from this vivacious and indelicate podcast? In God We Lust delivers cold, hard facts with a gossipy twist. And listeners feel like they're getting the deepest, dirtiest details. That's part of this six-part series' addictive charm. It gives a heaping dose of news coverage with bawdy comedic banter by quippy hosts.

Listeners should prepare for scintillating sexual discussions dealing salacious impropriety. For those who have what our hosts call "virgin ears," In God We Lust is a lewd lesson in titillating gossip.
