In episode 7, Noah catches up with high school classmate Matthew Thornton, who is following Jesus after living a life of (in Matthew’s words) “sex, drugs, and rock & roll” that began at age ten and led to full blown alcoholism and accompanying depression at age 21.

Noah and Matthew attended the same church (where Matthew’s dad was pastor) in sixth and seventh grade.  Gotta love this photo of Noah and Matthew from 1996, the summer before 8th grade, at Christian camp:

We polish off the episode with Noah’s Rant taking on dudes who don’t wash their hands after going to the bathroom.
