In this first episode of 2026, picture yourself in Boston in late November. It’s chilly, a little rainy, and there are scholars everywhere. Rachel is on the road, meeting Regent alums and early career researchers at the American Academy of Religion and Society of Biblical Literature Conference. In this special episode, she catches up with Madison Lyonhart, Abraham Wu, James Smoker and Rachel Wilkowski, hearing about their presentations, research projects, and perspectives on the conference. They also share about how their Regent days influenced their career trajectories and interests. We're moving through history, theology, the arts, and biblical studies, so it's a smorgasbord of topics and perspectives. We hope you enjoy this episode and it whets your appetite for an array of great conversations in 2026.
