Like a sloppy kiss from your crush!
You don’t care how it makes you look in public because you’re so into it.
Enjoy listening to it with my lizard friends while drinking egg nog.

Telling It Like It Is
Tom and Cecil are two of the funniest guys on the internets. But don't let that fool you. They're smart, they’re insightful, and they're not afraid to say exactly what's on their minds. I only have a few must-listen podcasts, and Cognitive Dissonance is definitely one of them. Keep up the great work, guys!

Cognitive Dissonance Review
Cognitivie Dissonance is by far my favorite podcast. The hosts deal with the serious to the silly in a fun, funny and thought provoking way. Their political commentary is the best. And it is amazing how they find the most outrageous, ridiculous and absurd political commentary from people who clearly have no clue but, absurdly, have a following out there in the world. Cecil and Tom introduce us to these outrageous "thought leaders" (I wouldn't call them that but clearly others in the world do) and then expose them in the most engaging and hilarious ways. When on holiday or long car rides, my teenage son and I listen to episodes over and over again, and every time we listen we laugh just as hard as the first time we heard the show and also find new nuggets we had missed. I am also struck and touched by many of the very serious topics Cecil and Tom cover -- I have been introduced to social justice, environmental and political topics and organizations that are thought provoking and inspirational. Great Great Podcast!

Don't miss this podcast
Tom & Cecil are decent regular guys with worthwhile level-headed comments on events in the news. They are foul-mouthed but very funny. Their self-deprecating humor reminds me of Car Talk.

Glory 👌
Before 2019 i had never sat down and listened to a podcast. I had heard clips of joe rogan and stuff but never actively went out to listen to one. I cant remember why but i was feeling particularly grouchy and atheisty and was tired of my music so i figured id try a podcast out. I searched for atheist on spotify and found one podcast that was okay, but was a little dry for my taste. Disappointed, i was about to go back to my music but decided to check the ‘more like this’ section and found cognitive dissonance. I started off on episode 454 and ended up loving it. The raunchy humor and visceral obliteration of stupid religious stories titillated me on every level. I decided id start going back through the backlog telling myself if the episodes started sucking id just wait for new episodes, im currently listening to episode 53 and going strong. If you hate religion and love raunchy humor and dead baby jokes, THIS is the podcast for YOU!

Top shelf podcast!
This podcast is like sitting at the bar with your mates chatting about life. I’ve been listening since episode 50’ish. Tom and Cecil laugh heartily at their own jokes and its infectious. Give this one a shot!

Funny and irreverent
Hilarious shows religion for what it truly is MADNESS!! Makes fun of these so called prophets and “men of god”.

A genuinely good show.
The commentary on this show is some of the most interesting and thought-provoking political commentary out there. Tom and Cecil balance funny with important and keep me up to speed every week. These guys are great to meet at conferences and live shows as well! Long-time patron of the show; give Gary one of those special hugs for me.

A must have
This is one podcast I never miss. Important and often times edgy news of the day is handled with humor and intellegence. The other Gloryhole productions are also worth checking out.

Very irreverent and funny atheist and skeptic perspective
Very straightforward, funny, irreverent, but thoughtful discussions on atheist and current political topics, especially in America. Tom and Cecil have a very good chemistry, and the two are able to keep interesting conversations going, sometimes in very interesting and unexpected directions!

We may not be screwed after all
These guys are intelligent, articulate, passionate, social justice warriors. Listening to this podcast has turned me into a better human being. They do charity fundraising, awesome satire, and regularly make me laugh so hard that I have to lean against a wall for support until the laughing fit is done; the way I used to laugh as a child. Best.

Love them!!
I’ve been a weekly listener for years and can’t believe I forgot to rate them. If you consider yourself a humor-loving skeptic, this is definitely the first podcast you should subscribe to!! Glory!!

Love the humor
Great podcast which makes my week. They find the stories I can’t find because I am unwilling to sully myself by wading into that murky swamp. Exposing the silliness of these stories is hilarious. Keep up the great work!

Required Weekly Listening
Keeping up with the news isn’t always fun, but these two guys make it not just bearable but enjoyable. The world we live in now is crazy and needs to be laughed at or else we’ll all lose our minds. Consider this informative therapy.

Great show!
Been listening for a little over a year... I’m actually back logged into your 2016 recordings lol but anyhow, you two have opened my eyes on topics I could’ve never imagined I’d be changing my beliefs/opinions about. You guys are great. Thanks for doing what you do.

The reason I started listening to podcasts
I started listening to this show about two years ago and fell in love immediately. Tom and Cecil, marry me? But really, I had never listened to a podcast before finding Cognitive Dissonance and it completely changed my life. I even went back to listen to all of their episodes since the beginning. Now I wait for new episodes on Mondays like a kid waiting for Christmas. This podcast is insightful and hilarious in all the best ways. I can’t recommend it enough to all of my friends (the non-religious ones anyways).

Funny,Entertaining, and on point
This is one of my favorite podcast. The mix of serious political/religious talk and hilarious hijinx is perfect. The podcast is generally centered around current political and religious stories, making fun of the right has never been more fun and scary at the same time. It's also one of the longest running podcast in the genre, that being mostly atheist related.

Great Show
This is a great show for someone that lives in the south. It seems you would have to be a troll to rate this less. However, I also hear my name on this show, but usually not in a good way.🤣
