Sam & Jonah: Roommates in Faith
Hosted by Tim Bearden · EN
A Small Time Big Shots Production
What happens when a cynical skeptic and a hopeful Christian live under the same roof? You get Sam & Jonah: Roommates in Faith—a storytelling podcast where spiritual arguments break out somewhere between laundry day and leftover pizza.
Sam’s the practical, sarcastic doubter. Jonah’s the sincere believer trying to live out his faith without strangling his roommate. Together, they navigate faith, friendship, and who forgot to pay the electric bill.
Narrated by their long-suffering third wheel (me), each episode dives into awkward conversations, moral standoffs, and moments that somehow feel sacred... and stupid. Sometimes both.
Funny, honest, and occasionally profound—this is faith the way it actually shows up in real life: messy, meaningful, and full of side-eye

In Season 2, snacks go missing, Bibles end up in freezers, and the Holy Ghost might not be the only thing haunting their apartment.
