  • Fundamentalism and privilege

    Good to finally see the fundamentalism on the left called out. However, it’s painfully clear both hosts and guests are very suburban, protected and have never been exposed to criminal or intensely abusive behavior.

    They’re absolutely ignorant about the horrendous dynamics of human trafficking, drug culture, criminal fraud, etc… Very frustrating listening to their asinine assessments. They sound ridiculous and are only believable to their sheltered audience. Bring guests with real experience on... more

  • A balm

    One of the few bright spots in the media-sphere.

    Come for the encouraging content about what Christian’s are doing to support the marginalized and oppressed, for nuanced takes on current political and current happenings, but then stay because the humans making this podcast are kind, generous, thoughtful, and have a delightful a sense of humor and camaraderie. Thank you so much for your time and labor.

I was thrilled; many people in the group were reporting their daily successes and how they were earning a substantial amoun... more

  • The Tension

    Thank you so much for providing such thoughtful commentary in this important moment. It was on this podcast where I first heard a phrase that finally spoke to how I have felt over the past several years as a Christian trying to navigate these charged political waters. I’ve always felt too conservative for the far left and too liberal for the far right. In an interview Kaitlyn spoke with a pastor (can’t remember his name) where he spoke about the tension Christians should live in, where the onl... more
