  • No politics!

    Enjoy the pod much more when Adam and David explore history and philosophy in regards to church, faith and reason. We don’t need your repeated thoughts on modern politics. Not all of your listeners are conservative!

  • Potential but

    I love the subject matter of most of your shows… I’ve been a listener since the first episode and I subscribe to most of the 1517 podcasts. But I find some of your cultural critiques to be nothing more than Fox News talking points. This is disappointing. Your mention of Jonathan Cain is kind of a last straw for me. I simply can’t take him seriously- or take seriously anyone who does. I wish you all the best.
