Perceptive, witty, and always spot on. These three know what they know and make you glad that you took the time to know it too. Fake Mennonews this is not.

I’ve learned a lot in terms of the scope of the public’s fascination with plain groups. Listening to these podcasts, I’m processing how I feel about that as a Mennonite of a different (but historically related) stripe.
