This page is about the podcast. For information about the Biblical phrase, see Chariots of iron.

Chariots of Iron is fortnightly topical news and panel discussion podcast on atheism and related issues, and acts as the de-facto unofficial podcast for the Atheist Nexus social network. The podcast was created by the show's hosts, Lamar, Eli Smith and Joe Prova, in September of 2008. While Lamar and Eli continue to host the show, Joe departed in June 2010, citing time constraints, to focus solely on the show's sister podcast, Atheist News. Through the show's history, the hosts were joined by guests and semi-regular 4th host, Brother Richard.

Each episode of the show begins with a reading of the passage which the podcast's name alludes to, Judges 1:19 :

¹⁹ And the LORD was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.

The passage was read by Lamar for the first 35 episodes and after that by various guests from previous episodes.

Notable guests have included:

• Sam Singleton
• Nate Phelps
• Darrel Ray
• PZ Myers
• Jeff Sharlet
• Marc Headley
• Brian Dalton
• Roger Nygard
• Leo Behe
