In this episode of the Crooked Lines Podcast, Father Sam French and Tom dive into one of the most ubiquitous and controversial topics of our time: Artificial Intelligence.

From the historical cycle of "technological panic" to the deeply personal ways AI is encroaching on our humanity, we explore whether this tech is a blessing for efficiency or a threat to the soul.

Note: This episode briefly touches on the topic of suicide at the 12:50 mark. If you wish to avoid this, please skip ahead.

What happens when a viral K-Pop movie becomes a masterclass in Ignatian discernment?

In this episode of Crooked Lines, Tom and Father Sam dive into the cultural phenomenon "K-Pop Demon Hunters" (also known as Don't Bow for Me). While it might sound like "garbage" at first glance, this Academy Award-winning film holds a surprisingly deep mirror to the Catholic faith.

Welcome to the introductory episode of the Crooked Lines podcast. Join your hosts, Tom and Father Sam French, as they share the inspiration behind this project and the journey of bringing it to life. In this episode, Tom and Father Sam discuss the "crooked lines" of their own lives: the mistakes, trials, and personal challenges that God uses to bring people closer to Him. They move past the "polished" image of the Christian life to explore the messy reality of personal transformation and the desire to live authentically. From a chance meeting over coffee to transforming a junk-filled garage into a 90s-themed studio, they reveal the providential moments and partnership with Parousia that made this show possible.Join the Journey: Follow and Subscribe!
