Dokter Knows Best

Lisa J Dokter

Each week, Derek and Lisa Dokter, will discuss a topic that falls under a category of either Bible, Bull (shit, hunky, honky, crap, etc.), or Booze. Each episode will be 15 - 60 minutes, maybe longer on complicated topics. Sometimes alcohol will be involved, sometimes it won't. Derek has an undergraduate in philosophy and a master's in divinity. Lisa has 90% of an undergraduate in Biblical theology. We enjoy many TV shows, various genres of music, a menagerie of liquors, and debating the issues that face the Christian church of America.

    Episode 3.1 - Life, Death, & Everything Between

    TRIGGER WARNING!  This episode covers death, abortion, sexual assault/rape, incest, and abuse.  Listener discretion is advised. In this hard hitting episode on life and death, explaining what caused the extended pause in the release of the season three premiere, Lisa and Derek tackle, or rather wrestle with, the topic of abortion and the current political climate that has the Supreme Court of America poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.  The determination is ultimately until ethically proven statistically, abortion should come down to personal choice.  There is currently no metric for deciding whether an abortion is detrimental to society or beneficial and until such a time as the statistics can prove that is detrimental, it should be left to the individual who is pregnant to determine what is best for their body.  This is a longer one, so buckle up and weigh in on social media.  We'd love to know your feelings and opinions on this topic. This week, Derek was drinking a 750 mL Yellow Tail Sauvignon Blanc and Lisa was drinking 3 oz of Parrot Bay Pineapple Rum with 3 oz of Captain Jack Coconut Rum mixed with 3 oz of Skinny Mermaid Syrup and Coconut LaCroix.

    Bible: Christian Resolutions

    In this week's episode, Derek and Lisa talk about the pitfalls of resolutions and what those pitfalls mean to Christians.  Are goals being used as tools or metrics for success (or failure)?  Ultimately, the conclusion is drawn in typical Dokter Knows Best fashion where love of God, love of self, and love for others is the true goal and if a resolution doesn't fall into those categories, then it's probably not good for you.  But listen in and make your own determination.

    Bull: Hawkeye and Spider-Man: No Way Home

    SPOILER ALERT!  This week's episode dives deep into both the Marvel/Disney TV show "Hawkeye" and the Marvel/Disney Movie "Spider-Man: No Way Home."  If you haven't seen either, and want to, avoid this episode as there are major spoilers ahead. This week, Derek and Lisa dive deeper into the implication of two spoilers.  One for "Spider-Man: No Way Home" and the other for "Hawkeye."  The implications being that the MCU and Disney are gearing up to bring back the cast of "Daredevil" from Netflix.  Grandfathering into the MCU both Matthew Murdock and Wilson Fisk (aka Kingpin).  As always, the discussion twists and turns, but ultimately revolves around both the TV show and the movie that had characters from Netflix's "Daredevil" premiering on the same weekend in December.  We hope you'll listen in and enjoy Derek and Lisa's views on the newest installment to Disney's MCU.
