At NHPR, we believe the weekend is a time for reflection, discovery, and a bit of a refresh. To keep your listening experience vibrant, we are excited to announce a new addition to our Sunday morning lineup that promises conversations of biblical proportions.
Starting Sunday, April 12 at 6 a.m., join host Scott Carter for Ye Gods, a deep dive into the beliefs—both sacred and profane—that shape our lives. Carter sits down with an eclectic mix of comics, musicians, writers, and thinkers to explore what drives them.
Whether you consider yourself purpose-driven or just "driven-driven," a believer or a skeptic, a dreamer or a doubter, there is a seat at the table for you. From the dogmatic to the pragmatic, and the historical to the hysterical, Ye Gods invites everyone: come all ye faithful... and faithless.
Ye Gods with Scott Carter is kicking off their NHPR debut with 6 time Emmy nominee Sharon Lawrence. Best known for her SAG Award-winning portrayal of Assistant D.A. Sylvia Costas on the groundbreaking NYPD Blue, Lawrence has also graced the screen in Grey’s Anatomy and starred on Broadway in iconic revivals like Cabaret, Chicago, and Fiddler on the Roof.
Ye Gods with Scott Carter is distributed by WGCU and The NPR Network.
