An absolute gem of a Christian left podcast
Always a fun and informative listen!!
One of my favourite podcasts. Christianity from a leftist perspective and vice versa with lots of humour and great guests. Also highly recommended for bone perverts. If you know, you know.
This is my absolute favorite podcast, please never stop making it! Liberation Theology is a fairly niche subject and I’ve learned so much about it, and related topics, from this show. The hosts are both knowledgeable and humble, and I appreciate the mixture of humor and serious discussion. God bless you guys for creating an amazing resource for left-leaning Christians!
This is a more recent find for me — last year or so. I’d kind of sworn off theology podcasts for a while, but I enjoy this one. Steers pretty well clear of my religious traumas and neuroses! And I’ve plundered the show for some great reading recommendations too. Solidarity!

A distinctive element is the sustained fusion of rigorous theory with practical activism and accessible banter, which tends to attract listeners w... more
