He's baaaack! This time Paul joins us to share his own personal journey. If you're not sure what The Shack is all about. A work of fiction, written by an unknown author & self published. Having only spent a few hundred dollars on marketing, The Shack has sold almost half a million copies in the last 10 months! WHY? Since finding out about The Shack, many of Drew's friends have gone out and bought entire cases of the book.

TDMS wants to take over the world - should we ask for money or not?
Hardly a week goes by that Drew doesn't have someone say to him, "Dude, the rest of the world needs to hear your show," or "I wish our local station carried The Drew Marshall Show," or "Man, I can't believe how incredibly handsome you are!" So beginning September 2008, we'd like to spread the love. Our goal is to provide a FREE 1-Hour Best Of TDMS program to every Christian radio station in Canada. Then the U.S.A. - then the WORLD! (Christian radio rarely pays for programming - For the most part, American ministries pay stations to have their show aired! Nice gig, huh?) So will you help us take over the world? A couple of things need to be cleared up first:
TDMS draws NO salary! The radio station we broadcast the show from pays TDMS nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zippo. Bupkis. The only way TDMS makes any money is through paid advertising.
www.drewmarshall.ca is a FREE site & we'd like to keep it that way! For the last 5 years, TDMS has consistently provided high calibre online content - FREE.
We Don't Want To Make You Subscribe! - That's just wrong!
We Don't Want To Ask For Donations! - That's even wronger!
SO... how do we ask you to support us without ticking you off and losing the love? Or has this just got "bad idea" all over it?
Should television personality Bill Maher be fired for what he said about the Pope?
TV host Bill Maher addressed the Catholic Church abuse scandal on his HBO series Real Time With Bill Maher, but in a way that has some Catholics calling for the network to take him off the air. The Catholic pro-life organization American Life League has launched FireBillMaher.com, claiming "Bill Maher slanderously attacked the pope and Catholics everywhere, and for that he MUST be fired!" On the April 11 episode of Real Time Maher referred to the Catholic Church as "a child-abusing religious cult" and claimed that Pope Benedict "used to be a Nazi."
The Drew Marshall Show ran for 16 years but came to an end on June 29th 2019.
However, Drew has decided to leave the interview archives online and available for you.
So enjoy!
We are currently experiencing some technical difficulties with our site. This means that all audio archives can only be listened to with a computer and not a mobile device. Our apologies. We are looking into this.
DREW WHO? Since 2003, Drew Marshall has talked to everyone about whatever it is they believe, in a very light-hearted manner and with absolutely zero agenda, aside from a genuine personal curiosity to understand “belief”. Drew was adopted, grew up in a funeral home, survived a teenage suicide attempt, dropped out of school in Grade 9, ran away to California to be a wrangler, played semi-pro football with NFL/CFL tryouts, drove around North America volunteering for charities, tried to be a firefighter & a rodeo cowboy, was a stay at home dad, has worked a little in film and TV, became a Pastor in Australia and studied stand-up comedy & improv at Second City Toronto. These days he’s a hospital chaplain and hosts Canada’s most listened to spiritual talk show. He’s interviewed hundreds of celebrities & cultural icons about their beliefs or lack thereof. Struggling with his own faith, Drew sacrificed his eyesight for the last week of Lent, paid non-believers to go to church, drank with witches, celebrated with Wiccans, visited with Satanists, walked 1000 KM’s on the Camino de Santiago, then spent time writing in a monastery on an island off the coast of the Western Sahara during a three month vow of silence. Basically, he’s “Red Letter”, wandering, autodidactic iconoclast with agnostic tendencies and a microphone - a skeptical believer on an irreverent search for the sacred!
*Should you wish to reach out to Drew directly, please use the contact page. It might take a while for him to respond though, as he now lives on a farm and is no longer addicted to technology. (Which is a good thing as he's trying to write a stupid book and gets distracted easi - SQUIRREL!)
CAUTION: DO NOT CONTINUE IF YOU ARE 100% CERTAIN ABOUT YOUR BELIEFS
