    Episode 36: Coming Back big and Live

    Episode 36: Coming Back big and Live

    I'm BAAAAAAACCCCKKKKK . after a long an unexpected hiatus the show returns bigger than ever. This episode is a LIVE show. Well, technically it was in fron of a live audience then and you are no listening on recording. Which is no different than how you normally engage it. This is the big cross over spectacular of the Via Media Network hosted by the Collect Call at the General Convention of the Episcopal Church. Join the Padre and the rest of the crew from Easter People and Collect Call as they discuss if there can be to much prayer. Don't miss the game at the end of the episode, if for no other reason than to watch us flounder!  Next week we are back with more great guests.

    Episode 35: Winter is Coming

    In this episode the Padre is joined by Jennifer Wickham and Illan Emmanuel to discuss the upcoming premier of Game of Thrones. While the episode is a little bit fan boyish (or fan girlish) there is still plenty for people that haven't seen the show to chew on. Listen in as they discuss more than just the show. Listen in as they wrestle with the eternal battles of good vs evil. They debate the relative nature of ethic and and virtue. As always there is plenty of learning and a lot of laughs.
