Phantom Wilds: Music, Faith, and Identity Unplugged

I think it keeps young people silent for a really long time because they feel self-hatred and blame and like, oh man, I did this terrible thing, or they did this to me because I'm sinful or that kind of stuff.
Ever wondered what it's like to juggle music, faith, and personal identity? In this episode of 'Weird Fat and Sober', host Daniel Wooldridge sits down with Jordan and Jeffrey from the indie band Phantom Wilds. The conversation dives deep into their lives as musicians, touching on the highs and lows of touring, the struggle to make ends meet, and the unique challenges they face in the industry. But it's not just about music.
Jordan opens up about his experience of being bisexual in a repressive religious environment, shedding light on the self-hatred and blame that can silence young people for years. His candid reflections offer a powerful perspective on the need for supportive environments for all sexual orientations and religious backgrounds. The trio also tackles classism in Korean and Asian societies and discusses the objectification of women in pornography, providing fresh insights on these often-taboo topics.
With humor and honesty, this episode offers a raw look at the intersections of music, faith, and identity. Whether you're a music lover or someone navigating your own path to recovery, this conversation is sure to resonate.
