Unscripted Uchtdorf for the Win – AoN 1077

By October 13, 2026Episodes

Taylor is finally back in the co-host seat, and this time he’s broadcasting in glorious landscape orientation. He’s down to just two major life goals these days: acquiring a second chain and managing to live in the exact same place for more than a year. We also get a major life update that he is officially off the market, having formalized his new relationship back in May after initially meeting her at a dating show last year. 

On the digital front, we are heavily pushing our social media presence, specifically focusing on Instagram reels as we march toward that 3,000 follower milestone, while our Facebook page sits comfortably over 9,000. Some of the recent clips have absolutely taken off, including a look at the Highland Park Chapel in Sugarhouse that quickly racked up 32,000 views. We also send a massive thank you to BobDix for his generous donation to help fund The Cultural Hall Vault, and take a quick minute to highlight my own business, Best DJ in Utah, fresh off rocking Diana’s 50th high school reunion.

For the news segment, we dive deep into former guest Dan McClellan—who you might remember from episode 666—and the massive reach of his Data Over Dogma platform. Dan recently spent three hours on the Joe Rogan Experience, where he actively pushed back against theories regarding the psychedelic mushroom origins of Christianity. We chat about Dan hitting the golf course with Rhett from the YouTube duo Rhett & Link, touching on their highly public faith deconstruction. Taking things back to the local ward level, Taylor shares a wild Sunday School moment where a member bluntly suggested the class just agree the story of the flood didn’t actually happen.

We wrap up the episode with some General Conference thoughts, specifically highlighting a fantastic quote from Sister Runia that really resonated. Finally, we touch on the bizarre recent arrest of Ammon Bundy, a two-time former guest of the show, who was pulled over in Utah while driving an unregistered car and told authorities he was operating as his own nation under God.
