Episode 11: Back to School With Professor X
This episode we are joined by my college History professor, Professor X, as we talk about the "isms" we adopt, whether by choice or necessity, and how both of us ended up taking a lot of things for granted in our academic years and how we came to unpack those implicit biases.
It's a good conversation with an old friend and we bounce around from talk about the invention of "white people" to our favorite podcasts (besides this one). -
Black Lives Matter
A little explanation for why the "Political Podcast" up and fucking vanished during the most important protests in a century.
In Short: I was waiting to make it perfect and, lo and behold, perfect never came. -

Episode 09: What Is There To Like About Superheroes?
There's something to be said about being able to articulate why it is you like what you like and I think the things I like about superhero narratives are what lead me to become a leftist.

Episode 08: Mere Christianity feat. Manfred DeVox
You could say that religion was the first fandom. This week I have my good friend Manfred DeVox on the podcast to talk about how we both started out as kinda conservative students on our way to becoming pastors, took wildly divergent paths, and somehow still ended up as Christians(with doubts) and political leftists. I don't believe religion needs to be an obstacle to progressive politics and Pastor DeVox spells out the case quite nicely.
