Join two little church mice M and B as they discuss life topics and events from their unique little creature point of view. They are two Orthodox Christians from Belgrade Serbia, so they share a Christian perspective. They love to have fun conversations and publish them on Mondays! And eat cookies. And cake. Also cheese. No fish please. Ok, some fish. But no hake!

Today we talk about... well, everything. Bishops, electing the new Serbian patriarch, how the Serbian constitution from the 19th century treated slavery, prayer for the government, the people in power... you know, all the things normal people talk about in their spare time! And now you get to listen to it! Hint: a small treat in the end.…

Well, Twitter's dark pattern design is at it again, for the sole purpose of pitting us against one another. After a minor Twitter scuffle, we share some of our thoughts and opinions: why do Orthodox Christians have a reputation of toxicity online? Does it have to do with the Faith, or with demographics, or is there some maleficent part of Twitter's…

Being a freelancer in Serbia is no longer fun. Join us as we venture through the bogs and moors of Serbia's bureaucracy hell. Ever heard the famous hits "The eco tax" or "You need the company seal to accept this letter"? Well we who live in this Ship of Fools have. Finally, another rant episode, we didn't have one for so long.…

Well, we've had quite an eventful start of the year, but first, let us focus on what is the most important: How did we spend our Christmas festivities? Do the two of us ever miscommunicate, and how epic can it be? We also tell our own (lame) spooky story based on the story dice, an amazing way to get your kids' (and yours!) imagination crackin'!…

“There is no better faith than that of Christians, a Serb belongs to Christ, he rejoices at death; The dread judgment of God awaits for Turks as well, So do as you please! Your comeuppance is close at hand God is the witness and His is the justice!” Troparion, 4th tone As true soldiers of Christ, you shone forth with meekness and humility and for C…

The time is nigh for us to review our New Years's resolutions. Of course when we made them we didn't know that the year 2020 will be THE year 2020. Thankfully, in hindsight, at least one of us made his resolutions to be very corona-friendly. The other guy managed to check his checkboxes for at least some of his (less important) resolutions. Which o…

Brigid is back so we finish where we left off - to answer the question how did she convert to Orthodoxy? What were her struggles? What was the most clickbaity title we could have chosen for this episode in order to optimize clicks, likes and subs? When is your feminism and secularism a mere foil for your jealousy? Thankfully, we have our lovely Bri…

A serious episode today. As you might have heard, the Patriarch of Serbia Irinej has passed away due to Covid-19-related complications. You might have also heard that he's still alive and in critical condition. We discuss our own thoughts and feelings over this confusion as regards to health of His Holiness, as well as on the less than stellar appr…

How do we approach the lockdown measures from the Church point of view? How to deal with kids as they grow up to find their church under a lock? Just how controversial is veiling in the Church, is it at least cool? Can we get in trouble over it? What are the dark sides of living in a country with a predominant Orthodox population? How does it feel …

Wanna see how friends catchup after 2 weeks? :) You're right, "friends" might be taking it too far. But we talked about many things with a smile, join us :) Hint: Troparion to Met. Amphilochius played at the end of the video was written and sang by a church custodian from Belgrade, Serbia. May The Lord reward him for his heart. Full version in Serb…

The mice have their own Official Protestant Consultant! His name is Austin and he's awesome, as you'll see within the first 15 minutes of our conversation. Austin runs a great Christian YouTube channel that goes by the name "Gospel Simplicity" where he explores Christianity from the lenses of different Christian faiths. He has just discovered Ortho…

Electrical. Sus. Impostor. Not 'Imposter'. Where? Vent. Emergency meeting. Report. Crewmate. Meltdown. Sabotage. Download. Wiring. If these words don't mean anything to you in succession, you're missing a bandwagon to the world's most trendy game of 'Among Us.' There is an impostor amongst the crewmates of a spaceship. Two of those crewmates are mi…

In this one we have a special guest whom we decided to describe with the most click-baity keywords we could think of (hopes up that YT doesn't automatically ban us or something). It would be a major mistake to reduce him to a walking conspiracy theory though, as he is so much more! We do not refrain from asking him politically incorrect questions, …

Okay, you guys really liked our previous episode... or not, we have no idea, we're writing this stuff in bulk, who knows if it even got published?! Yeah, what about 5G frogs? So anyway, for this episode, we have a poisoned treat for you: we share our personal thoughts on the most popular conspiracy theories! What about the best conspiracy theories?…

Times are changing. Our daily lives are becoming increasingly more self centered. In such a climate, it is all too easy to focus entirely on ourselves and simply lose sight of others. Our mice have that exact issue: we fail to see the person we are conversing with, and in doing so, we need to ask ourselves - is the walrus that is far away less impo…

In another entry to the huge book of 'Persecution of Christians' we add the taking of the famed cathedral of Haghia Sophia. Mind you, it was a functional cathedral nearly 600 years ago. Then it became a mosque, then a museum, and now, strange people with foreign customs have deemed it right to snatch this jewel of Christianity before our very eyes.…

We left the previous episode at a cliffhanger. What was the TV show based on a game or whatever that starts on "M" that B loved when he was a kid? Well, in this one, M solves the puzzle, and we get to learn even more about B's creepy childhood. Don't worry, M's childhood was normal. The dream from the previous episode was an anomaly really.…

Well, the mice have pulled through, thanks to M resourcefulness and no thanks to B's initiative. What does having corona feel like? How many people did we spread it to? Are people in Serbia protesting over new curfew measures or is there something deeper behind all of it? Join us, but don't get too close. A little farther. Farther. A little more. T…

The elections in Serbia have ended. We have boycotted them, as well as pretty much anyone sensible. The elections themselves have been pretty much what you would expect... except for a couple of things that even the top comedians couldn't really think of! Join us as we perform an autopsy on the festering, bloated corpse of the Serbian elections!…
