Watch the episode here. Knock knock, Neo. The Matrix released 25 years ago this Easter. Join us as we revisit our 200th episode on this iconic sci-fi film, which we recorded for the film's 20th anniversary. In this episode James, Richard, and David as we revisit this modern classic as well as the highlights for the first 200 episodes. We discuss how Neo illustrates both the convert and the savior, the cost of discipleship, and how we should view our "enemies" in this world. Trust us, you'll want to take the red pill, and we'll show you how deep the rabbit hole goes...
