Jeff sits down with legendary clean comedian and musical madman Tim Cavanagh—a man who has turned guitars, one-liners, and pure comedic mischief into an art form.

Tim brings his trademark blend of wit, warmth, and wonderfully offbeat humor as the two dive into decades of stand-up stories, faith, family, and the strange places comedy can take you. From parody songs to radio fame, from church shows to national tours, Tim’s career is proof that you don’t need to be dirty to be dangerously funny.

Expect hilarious detours, heartfelt moments, and more than a few times Jeff laughs so hard he pretends he’s not crying. If you love clean comedy, quick wit, and two veterans of the craft trading stories like old friends, this episode is pure gold.

Tim Cavanagh:
A guitar, a punchline, and zero apologies.

Jeff sits down with nutrition expert and Christian wellness creator Abbie Stasior, known for her viral message: “Jesus Ate Carbs.”

Abbie brings a refreshing, grace-filled approach to women’s health, breaking down the guilt, fear, and confusion around food with humor, wisdom, and science that actually makes sense. She dives into hormones, stress, the truth about carbs, and why Christian women need less shame and more bread — spiritually and literally.

Abbie’s mission is simple: to help women feel like themselves again, honor the bodies God designed, and stop believing diet culture lies that Jesus Himself didn’t live by.

Come for the laughs, stay for the freedom, and leave knowing this:
Healing your hormones doesn’t mean hating your food — and yes, Jesus really did eat carbs.
