Great conversations with amazing guests. I love his audio essays. Clearly a passion project!
Josh’s interview with Simon Critchley was great. An insightful conversation that also captured the humanity of the topic (suicide and meaning).
I confess I haven’t left a review before now. And I do like beer, but I’m not doing this for free beer. I like listening to Josh because he knows how to celebrate other people’s brilliance without losing his own perspective. As someone not well versed in many of these themes, I feel like this is where I can be introduced to these concepts without my brain exploding.
Wonderful and insightful all the way through. Thoroughly and profoundly deconstructed. The host completely captured me when he shared asking his wife if she would object to his painting his finger nails black so that he could show up as an open and affirming Pastor. she did not object and he does.
A must listen!

Listeners can expect frank conversations with theologians, philosophers, scientists, and activists who push for a more inclusive, humane faith that engages culture, technology, and politics without losing contemplative depth. A notable throughline is rethinking traditional doctrines toward praxis—from liberation theology and solidarity circles to open and relational theology—while keeping a ... more
