Every other week this pair of non-believers will go through the life, death and after-life of that day’s obscure saint. In an attempt to understand what it means to be "good".

  • 94 - Saint Laurence O’Toole– 14 November

    This episode we head to the darkest period of Irish history [Citation Needed] with the life and times of Saint Laurence O’Toole. Sure he started off as a prince but that doesn’t mean he didn’t have a childhood as a professional hostage before rising through the ranks to become the Archbishop of Dublin.  Along the way we learn about his difficult relationship with his dad, his less than stellar negotiation skills, a near cudgeling, and get some bad news about a dog Matthew once met. Plus Anna get a real-life (totally not stolen) relic and Matthew get a miraculous windfall. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/saint-misbehavin/id1547078763 and subscribe wherever you can.

  • 93 - Saint Pelagia the Harlot – 8 October

    We start off strong with a cool name and then it’s all downhill from there as we talk about the life and times of Saint Pelagia the Harlot. A crowd of people looking at her ass (by which we mean donkey) leads to a nosey bishop making her feel bad for selling her ass (by which we mean her ass) and then it’s all fake eunuchs and eating disorders until she’s dead on a pile of olives. We also try to answer the age old question of whether actors are a good hang or not. Plus Anna faces some harsh karma and Matthew promises to invite Anna to the next Saint Misbehavin’ staff meeting.

  • 92 - Saint Giles – 1 September

    This month’s episode is pure poetry as we bust into the life and times of the highly recommended Saint Giles. He’s a sweet, if chronically misunderstood, man who loved animals and solitude and we discuss his close relationship with a deer, a king who does not know when he’s not wanted, his “expertise” in lactation, and whether PETA is front for Big Meat. Plus, in a shocking move, Anna Climbs a hill and, predictably, Matthew has another giant baby.

  • 91 - Saint Philomena – 11 August

    In today’s episode we try to figure out how important being real is to being a good person with the life(?) and after life of Saint Philomena. From humble beginnings as a pile of dust, she became the daughter of a Greek King and, after several false starts, a martyr. Along he way we meet ham wives, questionable nuns, and have a run in with our old nemesis, Emperor Diocletian (booooooo!). Plus, Anna and Matthew try desperately to scrounge for some corporate sponsorship and ice cream.

    Were back in Italy (do we ever really leave) with the life and times of Saint Benedict of Nursia.
