    Love what I can hear, but so frustrated by only hearing half an episode because the other half is behind a paywall. Unsubscribing.

  • Love French Fridays!

    I love the analysis that Skye and David do on French Fridays especially as it relates to what is happening in the world at large. But I think that with both of them being professing Christians, they miss an opportunity to talk about the sovereignty of God despite not liking what is happening in the headlines or the leadership of the United States. I am also appalled by our leadership and the way so many evangelicals rush to defend reprehensible behaviors. But because of situations out of cont... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

French Friday: Can Democrats Close the "God Gap"?
Q: Do you have an explanation or a hypothesis in your own head as to why he would ease up on this?
French offers two possibilities: Jeffress may sincerely believe that Baptist congregants should follow their consciences, or he may be making room for a political shift away from a movement that could be losing influence.
French Friday: Can Democrats Close the "God Gap"?
Q: What jumped out to you or struck you the most about your time in Texas?
French found anti-Talarico Republicans, anti-Paxton Republicans and pro-Talarico Democrats, but few Republicans openly supporting Talarico. He says the race reflects the state's political stakes and a possible narrowing of the God gap.
Air Mail: Repentance, Gehenna, and Circumcision
Q: Skye, you often talk about taking the Sermon on the Mount seriously. How do you reconcile this with not taking certain phrases literally like eye-for-eye language in Matthew 5?
The answer is to take the literal parts literally and the figurative parts figuratively, recognizing internal transformation as the goal rather than external conformity, and to understand that the Sermon on the Mount is about obedience grounded in grace.
A.I. Ethics with Meghan Sullivan
Q: How do financial and market pressures influence the ethical design of AI, and what institutions should balance those pressures?
She notes that economic imperatives are strong and can push for faster release, but stresses that religious institutions, governments, and civil society must exert restraint to guide AI toward humane and sustainable outcomes.
A.I. Ethics with Meghan Sullivan
Q: I want to begin with your visit to the Anthropic headquarters and what you learned there about how these models are being built and trained.
Sullivan explains that while language data can't truly convey emotion or personality, companies can direct how a model behaves and what kind of personality it presents, which raises safety and ethical considerations for how these tools engage with users.
