Shaycarl is a youtube celebrity. He and his wife have a few channels and currently they post daily videos on their Shaytards channel. The family consists of Shaycarl, Mommy-tard, Son-tard, Princess-tard and Baby-tard. They never mention that they are lds but if your mo-dar is on you can tell. First, they’re from Eastern Idaho (Idaho Falls area – I think). Second, they go to church every Sunday. Third, mommy-tard wears knee length shorts. The kicker was when he was helping his non-lds youtube friend move and was asleep on his couch the friend recorded him sleeping with no shirt over his garment top. Then to drive it home he had a short recording while at church and the hymn was Joseph’s first prayer. Raise your hand if you’ve seen his videos and guessed he was a Mormon.

After less than 3 minutes of watching 3 different videos (without noticing any of the above mentioned), I KNEW they were LDS, and then did the search. We’re kind of obvious folks.
Yes, all the above mentioned is what gave me the exact thought and sharing it with husband and family that I felt they were. The last few blogs were a real giveaway…for where they stopped and having such loving family ties.
This family changed my whole perception that I previously had towards mormons. I’m shocked and thrilled at the same time. I wanna join this club!
Not club, cult.
Moi, go to http://mormon.org to learn more about mormons. It is an awesome “club” to join. Even though not all mormons are like the shaytards.
http://www.shaytardsclub.com best place to discuss the videos of shaytards.take a look you will enjoy a lot
I’m not from the States so I don’t really have a “Modar”, seeing as I’ve never met any mormans.
I found their dog’s name “Malachi” intruiging, and looked up the name. Malachi is a sort of prophet-type figure adorned by christians but particularly the mormans. That’s how I found out.
I’m an agnostic myself and although I respect the religion and those who choose to follow it, like many religions… it seems pretty far-fetched and weird.
Nice to meet you Charly. Now you’ve met a Mormon. We know we’re weird. Sometimes weird is good.
Don’t join the lds “club” as it is a cult.
Matt, come on. Mornonism isn’t a cult. Geez. I was raised in the Mormon church, and even though I no longer go, believe me, it’s not a cult.
It’s just a bunch of nice folks who believe in God and family and doing kind things for people.
Mormonism ABSOLUTELY is a cult, look at the structure of the church, do the research, Joseph Smith was a convicted con man … the mormon story is just riddled with holes…
so you believe that a young man who had the education and literature expertise of a 3rd grader faked a whole entire book that which can only be compared to the signifacance of the bible?
i dont think so Brian.
It was the holy spirit and the power of the lord which guided this young man to translate the book of mormon. and to Joseph smiths best efforts he DID translate it and he was persucuted and tarred and feathered and eventually killed for his belief and work, by people JUST LIKE YOU Brian, people who called this church a CULT.
The church of jesus christ of latter day saints is NOT a cult. and i will justify it and not let you spit lies against it from your twisted tongue.
have you ever been to our church Brian? WE do not shout our songs or pay are priests. we give humble thanks to our lord and help our fellow man and strive to give charity which is the love of our savior jesus christ who died and atoned for our sins. we are here to learn and grow that we may prepare to live in the eternal glory of the celestrial kingdom of our Heavenly Father.
All forms of religion is a cult truly.
This crap about blind faith gets pounded into your head for years and You are told that if you do not believe very bad things will happen. OHH NO! C’mon folks Please step back and put your adult thinking cap on for a min and if you use just a SMALL amount of logic it is very easy to see that its all lies.
The Bible is a fairy tale.
The Book of Mormon is a comedy.
I wonder if Matt even knows what a cult is? haha.
I’m Mormon too and I first discovered the Shaytards a few weeks ago…at first I thought they were of course a hiliarious fun family, then I noticed just how much they love each other and all the time they spend together, could they be Mormon? Nah…um, I don’t think so. Then I noticed how modestly shaycarl’s wife and sister dress (although nowadays most women with their physiques usually wear skimpy clothing, but not the shaytards, nope). And how they were going to church out of habit, and they dressed a lot like Mormons on a Sunday. And mamatard’s knee-length shorts in another video. What locked it in one day was when I saw a picture of Gordon B. Hinckley on their refrigerator. Oh, I LOVE the Shaytards! But one note, I tried acting “fun” like the Shaytard parents with my kids one day, and my daughter has since gone into potty training regression. I guess “fun” mom threw her off a bit. Haha.
Angela you are a class 5 moron.
P.S. Bryan your a jerk and know one likes being around people with your attitude
In the video posted on Jan. 30th, 2010, the daughter tells her mom she just washed her “CTR Ring”….it’s at the first of the clip, I’d have to say, now that I know they are Mormon I am more interested in watching them now. Funny Mormons break the stereotypes and I appreciate that.
The Old Nauvoo hoodie on Mommy-tard was the clincher for me. lol These folks are hysterical!
Well if you just go to Shay’s Myspace, you’ll see “Mormon” listed as his religion.
http://www.myspace.com/shaycarl
The episode where they decide to burn the SI swim suit edition raised my suspicions, but his shouting “Oh my Heck” was the clincher.
They also cross their arms to pray
he could just as easily be a Christian. There is nothing that indicates he is mormon.
Except everything indicates he is mormon..
yeah, theres so many little hints here and there that indicate they are mormons. the only thing that kinda backlashes everything is that shay works on the station with all his friends in california (which arent mormon) and the station has very innapropriate materials on it. which if i worked around that i would quit. plus they are always breaking the sabbath and going to restaurants and other places.
but the mormon in them shines out far more then these things so yeah,
awesome family, want to be just like shay when im a dad.
Sad to see that they are Mormon. It IS a cult… Not to say this out of rudeness or hate towards Mormons (I LOVE the ShayTards) but for the sake of eternal life it needs to be known that Mormons will not see the rewards of Heaven by believing this. When looking in the Old Testament of the Word of God it says “5 Every word of God is tested; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.6 Do not add to His words, or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar.” Proverbs 30:5-6
Published in March of 1830, the Book of Mormon is an addition to the Word of God, being used to study along with the Bible by Mormons.
It also mentions not to change or add to the Bible in many other places within it.
Here is a good website explaining more. I hope you learn from it as I have…

Thanks,
God Bless
the book of mormon is not an “addition to the bible” it does not rewrite the bible in any way.
think of it like this.
most books have that little copyright claim saying know one is to add to this book or change it in any way ETC. but does that mean the author is not allowed to right another book pertaining to the story of the first?
No.
God is the author of the Bible AND the book of mormon.
and do you even know what the meaning of a cult is Owen?
a relatively small group of people having religious beliefs or practices regarded by others as strange or sinister : a network of Satan-worshiping cults.
WE DO NOT WORSHIP SATAN.
that is absoulutley ludicrous and ridiculous that people would say or even begin to think that we are a CULT
we are the church of jesus christ of latter day saints and are numbers are not few.
we strive to do good and help others. we have been persecuted since the beginning and will be till the end, but when Christ comes again. you will no the truth. we all will. i challenge everyone to read the book of mormon. open your mind and heart to its pages.
I pray for those who dont understand. and i feel amazing sadness for those who refuse to understand.
Questioning my knowledge of a Cult is not the issue, although your understanding of it is incorrect.
A cult, generally, it is a group that is unorthodox, esoteric, and has a devotion to a person, object, or a set of new ideas.(carm.org)
And you are saying that the BOM is written by our God?
Them same god that claims to be from another planet? Like it is believed by the Mormons? (Mormon Doctrine, p. 321; Joseph Smith, Times and Seasons, vol. 5, p. 613-614; Orson Pratt, Journal of Discourses, vol. 2, p. 345; Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, vol. 7, p. 333)
Are you saying the the one true God who wrote in the Bible saying “the Lord, He is God; there is no other besides Him” (Deut. 4:35). Is the same god that told J. Smith that ‘There are many gods’, (Mormon Doctrine, p. 163).
You are also saying that the bible agrees with the teachings of Mormons when this cult says ‘After you become a good Mormon, you have the potential of becoming a god, (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 345-347, 354.)?
When the one true word of God says, “…before me there was no God formed, and there will be none after me!” (Is. 43:10).
I have a hard time understanding why the followers of this cult believe that the Bible and the BOM go hand in hand, when the Lord will deny the teachings that have been followed by them on judgment day.
I write all this out of love for you and all brothers/sisters in Christ. The false teachings will lead to eternal hell if you don’t repent, and follow the true word of God intended for us to follow from the very beginning.

God Bless…
interesting stuff owen thanks for posting
hi came here via a google search on the wonderful shaytards.
so they go to church on sundays? if its what they do then cool! here in the uk we have no real idea about mormonism, only through the sqewered filter of the media..
if shay and katilette are the product of mormon upbringings then something good must be happening
cheers
jeff
Did I know they were Mormons? Honestly, not really. Did I realize they think “Annoying = Comedy” and that having “tards” for “unitards” is universal fuckin’ irony? Absolutely.
I am not Mormon and I had no idea they were Mormon. I am a Christian and to the people who dislike Mormons lthey are also Christians. Just because you may may not believe what their religion stares you dont have thw right to. slam them, I do know my God would not point fingers and ridicule others. And I know for sure my Christian God, and his son Jesus are the same.
My mo-dar was activated when I realized how young and good looking mom & dad are yet they already have 3 kids (with a fourth now on the way). Once he mentioned the CTR ring, my mo-dar was no longer needed.
I do think they fit many of the stereotypes, but are more laid back than Utah mormons. They’re California mormons after all!
Was just thinking how cool it was to see such energetic parents & Googled them. Say what you will about the Mormon faith, they “get” the whole family thing. Kids are a blast more than something to be suffered.
Life in general ought to be a blast. The Shaytards aren’t exactly cutting edge Lenny Bruce social commentary. But their joie de vivre is delightfully infectious. IMHO, think that’s what late night TV is missing since the departure of Johnny Carson.
