Description

We can give you 144,000 reasons why overlapping generations aren't a thing. Each week features a look at subjects, experiences and observations from the world of Jehovah's Witnesses, all through the eyes of a former elder who was raised as a JW in the 70's & 80's. Lots of laughs and even some tears. Beards allowed, leave your head coverings at the door. Bring a cheese danish.
