Today we're joined by rapper/singer Aaron Cole, who's dropping a major label album next week — and you get the first listen. Plus, while Emily's on vacation the guys predictably go sideways, talking about everything from favorite TV shows to fart walk strategies (sorry) to the benefits of living with your parents forever. At the end of the show, we play a round of Five Second Rule!

Episode 1157: Aaron Cole

Today we're joined by pastor, author and former NFL player Dr. Derwin Gray! We talk about the tidal wave of sports betting that's happening right now, and as Christians what we should watch out for. Plus, we have this week's RELEVANT Buzz, covering a surprise show that topped the Netflix charts, two big new album drops that take very different approaches to getting buzz, and an important documentary that just hit YouTube. At the end of the show, don't miss your annoying concert experience feedback!

Episode 1156: Dr. Derwin Gray

Today we're joined by worship leader Chris McClarney! It's a great conversation covering everything from the importance of theological accuracy when writing worship music to how badly the Church needs joy again. Plus, after Jesse gets some Aldi frustration off his chest, the crew brings Slices — from the stress Gen Z is feeling this week about the tax deadline, to some unexpected celebrity pastor kids, to the new show coming from Tim Robinson and Adam McKay. And at the end of the show we have a fresh round of Table Topics!

Episode 1155: Chris McClarney

Today we're joined by innovative worship collective Elevation Rhythm! Plus, while Derek is in LA pitching some new music projects, Marty for some reason lets it leak that he thinks everyone over 40 only listens to the Gaithers (which doesn't go over well), and then Jesse starts advocating for some major changes to the concert-going experience (which does go over well). Plus, Emily brings the week's RELEVANT Buzz, covering the new Mike Todd movie, the Nickelodeon scandal, and some crazy niche Bibles that, yes, are very, very real. And at the end of the show, we have your online outrage feedback!

Episode 1154: Elevation Rhythm

Today we're joined by rising indie artist Sarah Juers, who we're big fans of. Plus, it's Jesse's birthday so for Slices we tilt the segment towards topics he's very interested in — his theories on the paranormal phenomena that's been documented in recent years, and of course, how to make the library cool again. At the end of the show, don't miss a special Jesse Edition of Would You Rather!
