Dr. James Dobson is a clinical psychologist, founder of Christian media empire Focus on the Family, a spiritual advisor to every Republican President since Reagan, and a paragon in the Evangelical Christian movement. And he's a massive dick.


Join therapists Jake (a former Evangelical) and Brooke (who knows almost nothing about Evangelical culture) as they read and tear apart Dobson's works. Get ready to laugh, cry, and rip your hair out as we explore the very many reasons why I Hate James Dobson.

    Episode 39: Life on the Edge
    Sep 1 2025

    On this episode, Jake and Brooke are joined by Boyfriend to discuss a smorgasbord of Dobsonisms as they discuss his book and video series "Life on the Edge". If you can't traumatize the ones you love for the sake of #content, you are a better person than I.

    Does the air smell a little sweeter today? Do you find yourself with a little extra pep in your step? Did every person you know text you about the death of an almost 90-year-old man? Yeah me too.

    In this bonus, emergency episode, Jake and Brooke are joined by Corina to process the news of the death of Dr. James Dobson. Not to speak ill of the dead, but thank goodness. What a jerk. Say hi to Ted for us, Dobby boy!

    Episode 38: Creationism, Ken Ham, and Kevin
    Aug 18 2025

    It's a family affair on this episode of I Hate James Dobson, as Jake and Brooke are joined by Kevin - Jake's older brother, a rocket scientist*, and one cool guy. It's exciting! What's less exciting is that they are talking about creationism. Boo. A family that laughs about shared trauma together stays together?

Former Fundie who is now an atheist, still living in the bible belt. This podcast is humorously healing for me.

Though there are many problems with elements of the fundamentalist movement, the podcast resorts to name calling and outright falsehoods, rather than substance. One host comes into the show with no knowledge of Dr Dobson at all, which speaks volumes to how much substance the show has. From a therapist point of view, the hosts should look to Abigail Shrier’s book “Bad Therapy” for a critique on what they call “trama”.

Don’t waste your time.

Dishonest and Clueless
