LIVE FROM SRF is a new limited series from Unreasonable, recorded at the 2024 Summit for Religious Freedom in Washington, D.C., April 13-16. As the official podcast partner of the event, hosted by Americans United for Separation of Church and State, we were given incredible access to frontline Separation champions like Rep. Jamie Raskin, Dr. Anthea Butler, and trans activist Erin Reed.
Over the coming weeks, you’ll hear from a young, Black, queer survivor of the Pulse Nightclub massacre turned gun safety and LGBTQ civil rights advocate; lawyers whose work focuses on religious exemptions in healthcare; and a Muslim, Grammy Award-winning activist whose warning against “Christian Zionism” as a method to divide and conquer Muslims and Jews should be heeded by all; a popular evangelical podcaster who retains his faith while pushing back against Christian extremism, and a philanthropist and film producer whose new documentary explains in vivid detail the deeply entrenched forces determined to destroy American democracy.
And finally, you’ll hear our conversation with Rep. Jared Huffman, an out-and-proud atheist (raised Mormon) who has co-chaired the Congressional Freethought Caucus with Rep. Raskin since its inception in 2018.

Unreasonable is more than a podcast. It’s the start of a movement to reverse the inexorable rise of religious fanaticism taking over our government and our lives, on issues from public education, to women’s reproductive health, to the mainstreaming of loud-and-proud racism.
It’s time for all of us who believe in the Separation of Church and State to unite — as the majority of Americans we are — in the name of democracy, common sense and kindness.
