The First Church of Lorenzo
From the ashes of Misanthrope Radio rises The First Church of Lorenzo. It is a show that examines how thoroughly stupid, hypocritical, and delusional human beings have become in the most satirical and ruthless way possible.
Lorenzo breaks down culture, dating, and social trends with complete honesty and zero interest in protecting anyone’s feelings. Expect blunt analysis, dark humor, and the kind of observations most people only admit to themselves in private.
No motivational talk. No fake outrage. No pretending things are better than they are. Just a clear-eyed look at a species that continues to disappoint at every opportunity.
If you’re exhausted by relentless positivism and performative nonsense, and you prefer facing reality over coping, this is the show for you.
