General Conference Recap: Civility
General conference is one of my favorite things in life, and this time was particularly important to me. Messages about Jesus, faith, Easter, and holy week, but this time a further message about how the disciple of Christ has an obligation to be a peacemaker. I loved it.
Not just civility, something deeper: the call to peacemaking.
I suspect we'll talk more about it in coming episodes, so for now, a highlights reel.

Latter-day Saints and White Christian Nationalism
I sit down with Carl Cranney and Christopher Cunningham to talk about white christian nationalism, which is making the rounds in the news. We discuss what the Latter-day Saint response should be to the phenomenon, and how we're really doing on things. We also talk about two recent articles, one by Christopher in Public Square Magazine, and another by Dr. Taylor Petrey in The Salt Lake Tribune.

Black Mirror: Hated in the Nation #deathtosocialmedia
"I sit down with Carl Cranney and Liz Busby from Pop Culture on the Apricot Tree in this (ambitious!) crossover episode to discuss an episode of Netflix's dystopian technology show Black Mirror. We had a blast talking through the Black Mirror episode "Hated in the Nation." The discussion focuses on social media, and how it encourages bad behavior. We also talk about how we can resist the pull of cruelty and the "epistemology of hell" that drives the attention economy."

Tired of our current tax structure? I visit with my friend Joseph Addington about Georgism. We nerd out over what it is, what problems it could solve, and possible areas of application.

Customer Reviews
Radically good
Fantastic and informative. As Benjamin tackles a topic, he acknowledges his bias and proceeds with a fair mind. He brings up perceptive points with his dialog partner that are missing in other conversations.
Great podcast
Excellent work, interesting topics with a Latter-day Saint focus.
A Great Source of Light
This podcast does a great job of bringing light into otherwise decisive subjects and encouraging a more civil lifestyle. The topic is balanced with engaging, entertaining content and stories that bring it to life!
