📜🔥 NEW SONG: “Two Guys Standing on a Bridge”

A snarky theological riff based on a classic Emo Phillips joke — NOT on real despair, real self-harm, or anything of the sort.

Before anything else:
Actual suicide is not a joke.
If you or someone you love is struggling, please reach out.
Help is real. Hope is real. You matter.

🆘 If you or someone you know is thinking about suicide, please call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
You are loved. You are wanted. You are not alone.

This track plays on one of the funniest comedy bits ever written — the escalating “What denomination are you?” sketch where two Christians narrow themselves into absurd sub-sub-sub-tribes… until one finally cries “Heretic!” and pushes the other off the bridge.

It’s satire about division, not despair.
It’s a commentary on how quickly Christians can go from
“We believe in the same God!”
to
“Ah, but which Council of 19-whatever did you affirm?”
— as if Jesus instituted a free-for-all instead of a Church.

The humor exposes the ridiculousness of theological fragmentation,
the endless multiplying labels,
and the instinct to excommunicate each other
over distinctions too small to see without a microscope and a headache.

🎶 “Two Guys Standing on a Bridge” — out now.
A track for anyone who’s ever watched Christians argue themselves into oblivion and thought,
“Surely… this is not what Jesus meant.”
