Episode 3 of Sunday School Slackers! Chris and Mateo design the ultimate church tailgate — playlist, food, games, and all — before Chris drops a hot take that Pilgrim's Progress might be the most tedious "classic" ever written. Then it's a rapid-fire roast of the best and worst cities in Metro Detroit. Shoutout to this episode's sponsor, The Schwitz — a historic Jewish bathhouse in Detroit (yes, really). (lol no it's not, the AI just thinks so) The REAL sponsor is The Printing OX - go give some love to my buddy Forrest for all your Screen Printing needs. https://www.theprintingox.com/ PRE-ORDER A CREATIVE CHAPEL SHIRT! https://www.maccreativeco.com/store
Chris and Mateo dig into their pastor's-kid childhoods and compare notes on what was — and wasn't — allowed in their houses growing up. Pokémon, Harry Potter, Dungeons & Dragons, Ouija boards, and yes, Grand Theft Auto all make an appearance, along with a surprise baby cameo and a hot take on the "Jesus Calling" devotional that might start a fight in the comments. Shoutout to our first sponsor, Warmaiden Games — use code SSS for a discount on their tabletop game builds. <---- lol the A.I thought this was a real Ad.

Welcome to the very first episode of Sunday School Slackers — a new podcast from filmmaker Chris Mac and pastor/dad-of-five Mateo McGill. Two friends, one virtual hangout (Chris is in San Diego, Mateo's in Metro Detroit), and zero plans to take themselves too seriously. In this debut episode, Chris and Mateo introduce themselves, go down a rabbit hole about AI and gas station milkshakes, talk fatherhood and fitness, and finally reveal the wild list of names they almost picked before landing on "Sunday School Slackers." If you're a Christian creative, don't miss Chris's other show, Creative Chapel, where he dives into the intersection of faith and creativity. Shoutout to The Printing Ox for hooking up the Creative Chapel merch — hit them up for your screen printing needs.
Episode 4 of Sunday School Slackers! Chris Mac and Matteo recap their first Father's Day as dads — church, gifts that made them both cry, and a card with a hidden puzzle — before Matteo shares the wildest conversation he's ever had at his regular Jewish bathhouse hangout. Plus, Chris Mac breaks the news that his signature Creative Chapel closing question (the Veggie Tales bit) might be getting cut for good.
