CBT welcomes in the new year with guest Dhananjay Jagannathan and a super-stoney discussion of what Christ really meant when he said he came with the sword (the Christian mandate for socialism, duh). We break down Phil Christman’s book Why Christians Should be Leftists, the semiotics of woke house style, the aesthetics needed to reach Christian moms and how Christ is a little too radical for the NYC petite bourgeoisie.

Also discussed: how sexy we like our thought leaders (very), Hilbert’s paradox as metaphor for the Trinity, the ethics of astrology, and much more. Plus Francesca asks the most serious question of all: can I really consider myself a Christian if I spend hella $$$ on nail art?
