This week on Sins and Virtues, Pete and Tommy tackle the tricky topic of charity. Tommy kicks things off by sharing his guilt-ridden relationship with modern charity because who would he be if he didn’t?

Things take a personal turn toward Charity Shame Street when money isn’t enough. Also, don’t get scammed. It’s super important to research charities to ensure donations aren’t just lining the pockets of John Cena impersonators.

Pete gives a shout-out to the value of local, hands-on charity work, like serving up oatmeal at community organizations. The hosts can’t help but imagine the endless requests for more oatmeal and eggs that come with such noble deeds. More eggs, please, indeed.

Digging into the historical roots of charity, Pete uncovers its origins in ancient religious beliefs and obligations, from sacrificial offerings to good old-fashioned tithing. People, nobody needs you to kill a goat for good anymore. Just go on a Fun Run.
