Six Six Chicks - the Broken Cross, a comic by Jack Chick

Heretic Party

In this episode, Christian and Joe discuss the disturbing and objectively badass comics of renowned Christian bigot, Jack T. Chick. Unfortunately, a religion-inspired, anti-LGBTQ bill in the Idaho Senate casts a pall over the fun as it threatens open the prison doors for librarians and teachers who are just doing their fucking jobs! Join us as we discuss Idaho HB 666 and The Broken Cross, by Jack Chick.
