Religion on the Mind

GGCH: Best of 2024 & Celebrities Getting Christ-curious (#308)


Listen Later

It’s time for another Generation Gap Culture Hour where I sit down with Josh Gilbert and Tony Jones to talk about current culture from across our 20-year age perspectives.

In today’s episode we talk about:

  • How bands I toured with on the Warped Tour are now featuring at venues reserved for “legacy acts.” 👀
  • Band merchandise etiquette, including one very cringe story from Tony
  • Current events including Trump’s presidency and the TikTok ban
  • The absurdity of long URLs in podcast advertising
  • Institutions and outdated social media practices
  • Our favorite media of 2024: books about burnout culture, Korean War fighter pilots, and the fall of the Roman Empire

  • In the patron-only second half, we get more in-depth discussing Joe Rogan's recent interactions with Christian figures, and examining the intersection of apologetics, early Christian history, and religious experience.
