  • This show started off well..

    We have been listening to this podcast for about 4 yrs and it has gone from a fairly diverse group providing input and insight to a mainly male group of voices who do not always represent a wider world view. It has gone from interesting to just mantastic. We are done listening. :p

  • Empty pedantry, ugh!!!

    Tripp can't say anything in normal language that a regular person could use. I've given up. Tripp, your dedication to ridiculously arcane theory is such a waste of what you could be doing. I can't imagine why you continue to spend your mind on these broadly meaningless conversations. WTH is wrong with our supposed "academics?!" Zero impact in the real world.

  • This is a great podcast

    Tripp, I love your podcast. As someone who grew up in a Lutheran church that had some pretty evangelical influences, I prayed the prayer to accept Jesus so many times. I raised my hand and went to every alter call that was offered. I was a mess theologically. Since Covid I’ve stopped attending a church and now really appreciate sleeping in on Sundays. Listening to you and John Crossin and your TNT pod too have really helped me sort some things out. So thank you.

    I have a question though. My wi... more

Bonhoeffer’s Witness Against Christian Nationalism
Q: What lessons can we extract from Bonhoeffer for resisting nationalism today?
Bonhoeffer's engagement in communal ethics and his call to recognize the roots of evil in nationalism offers a framework for current resistance efforts. It teaches us to actively confront injustices and engage in community-building actions.
Bonhoeffer’s Witness Against Christian Nationalism
Q: How do we help a white Christian see that whiteness itself is a constructed identity?
It is important to surface the construction of whiteness and engage in conversations within the church about its implications. Understanding that whiteness is a socially created category is crucial for challenging systemic racism and white supremacy.
Tolkien & Trump: The Professor or the Profligate with Dr. Craig Boyd
Q: Are there lessons we can draw about resistance to the ruffians in our Shire?
Yes, it highlights the importance of solidarity and bravery in resisting injustices.
Community Over Cops: Building Justice from the Ground Up with Ross Halperin
Q: What was it like to start providing support to enable the police to do their job better and connect witnesses with protection?

Community Over Cops: Building Justice from the Ground Up with Ross Halperin
Q: Can you kind of like let us in to where your interest was just as a journalist and wrestling with the kind of challenge around violence and policing?
My interest began during research on impunity in the US, as I learned that less than 60% of homicides are solved here, and much lower in areas like Chicago. I became intrigued by how trust between the community and the police affects crime solving.
