The Stubbed T.O.E. Podcast Brandon Raby

In this one we discuss an interesting article I read online about a 15 year ban from a popular video game and the enforcement of blasphemy laws even from those who claim no religion. Yes…it is evident even in the world of media and entertainment that there is no neutrality to be had and we need to stop pretending that there is. It’s time for Christians to wake up to this fact and embrace it rather than shy away from it. This one is rather interesting and I hope that it makes you think! God bless!

I recorded this a few days ago and haven’t been able to upload it til today. But in this one we deal with the fact that entertainment as a whole is so taken for granted nowadays it has become cheap and has become cheapened. To make my point, providentially with the Oscars just a few days ago, would anyone have noticed that they were on if Will Smith hadn’t lost his temper and slapped Chris Rock? No. Is that a good thing? Yes. The whole idea of the Oscars has devolved into a woke self congratulatory exercise. But it still highlights the fact that entertainment has radically shifted because those who make their careers by it do not matter much anymore. But let’s look at this from the perspective of video games… I hope you enjoy and I hope it makes you think! God bless!

In this one we take a little trip down memory lane and talk about those shows that used to come on Saturday morning. They always had to be “Entertaining and Informative”. Some of them were great, but some were very cringey. And I’m thoroughly convinced that people on the internet do it better. 😆 Entertainment online has kinda naturally tended to go that way even in spite of all the stupid viral videos and other nonsense. There’s a place for that, but the people who are truly creating something special have tended to be better than the artificial Educational and Informative stuff of yesteryear.

Idk what’s up with the background noise but anyway… I read a few things I wanted to talk about today. Namely the fact that Russia has stated Meta is an extremist group and banned Facebook and Instagram and also an interesting poll on the rapid decline of foreign films (yay 😂). Anyway this increased division has grown more and more prevalent in recent years. This Russian ban is not simply a political move I think but is simply a logical conclusion of where we have been headed for quite a while (although it may have been accelerated). But more division has simply been inevitable for a long time and more will come…and it will have a dramatic impact on entertainment moving forward.

In this 4th and last installment of my interview with Joshua Hussain, we finally get to talk about his brand new album that dropped last week called “Sketches 3”. It is fascinating to hear about his process and what inspires him to make music and I hope that you check him out after this! I hope you enjoy! God bless!

This is part 3 of the interview I had with my friend Joshua Hussain. In this one we get down to the nitty gritty of the Christian music industry, the disturbing trends we see in it, and the nature of spiritual warfare. This has a ton of information and commentary packed into this 30 minute episode so you are not gonna want to miss a second of it! I hope you find it entertaining, I hope it makes you think, and most of all I hope you enjoy! God bless!
