On this episode of And Now We Drink, Matt Slayer sits down with Christy Love for a wide-ranging, unpredictable conversation that moves from bourbon and Bible study to corn, prison ministry, podcasting, and the meaning of forgiveness. Christy opens up about growing up with an alcoholic father who later became a pastor, her Korean mother’s deep faith, and the Pentecostal experience that shaped her own spiritual life.
Matt and Christy dig into theology from very different perspectives, with Matt bringing atheist curiosity and Christy offering candid, non-preachy reflections on sin, salvation, science, and why she believes relationships matter more than judgment. Christy also speaks openly about her husband’s incarceration, the crime from his youth, her decision to choose forgiveness, and the prison church and Bible studies he has helped build behind bars.
The conversation also explores Christy’s work in the industry, her new podcast In Bed with Christy Love, her upcoming memoir and why she sees podcasting as both therapy and a way to reclaim her own story. Along the way, Matt breaks down the brutal realities of podcasting, fame, OnlyFans, camming during the pandemic, and surviving trolls with humor.
From LA restaurants and Michelin stars to Japan, Cuba, Oktoberfest, dating norms, toxic relationships, and whether someone would sleep with a clone, this episode is funny, thoughtful, explicit, and surprisingly philosophical—exactly the kind of chaotic honesty And Now We Drink does best.
