Added Series 3, Episode 4 of The UnShaw Podcast YouTube interview My Mormon Experience: A Discussion about Mormonism with Ryan Erwin (2025) by Robert Shaw and Ryan Erwin to the Videos category on the Secular Web.
In this discussion with former Mormon Ryan Erwin, Kiosk Editorial Review Committee member and Secular Web author Robert Shaw recounts his unexpected deep dive into Mormonism—from scripture study classes and church services, to late-night conversations with missionaries and personal reflections on faith, doubt, and belonging. Along the way, Shaw visits a local temple, grapples with the Church’s complex history, and explores what it means to believe in something that many argue defies reason. Shaw is joined by Ryan Erwin, a former Latter-day Saint who grew up in the heart of Utah’s Mormon culture. Together, they explore why so many young people raised in the LDS Church are now walking away—and what they’re walking toward. It’s a thoughtful, personal, and at times surprising exploration of one of America’s most distinctive religious traditions.
