The Fascinating Podcast

That massive winter storm that swept the US knocked out two of our cohosts so Matt and Clay catch up on how they stayed warm.

Message from Fascinating Podcast on February 15, 2021

How should Christians engage policies surrounding minimum wages? We dive in headlong, including an exploration of Biblical economic theories and how the year of Jubilee might impact how we approach financies and flourishing for everyone. Plus: a Necronomicon uncovered - what could go wrong?

Your Fascinating friends are back! We introduce a new segment - the Squad Review! We check in on everything that's been happening since the election. PLUS: which host would make the best president?

Our last episode of the year is a big one. How else can we send out 2020 than by counting down our favorite TV shows, movies and books. Hey... it turns out there was plenty to love in 2020 (especially since we were all locked inside!).

Producer and screenwriter (The Tick, Detective Pikachu) Dan Hernandez joins us to talk about how creatives can thrive in quarantine.

After last week's conversation with Kristin Kobes du Mez, we turn to the future of masculinity in the Evangelical world. What pitfalls and promises do we see as we move forward?

Pundits, pastors, prognosticators and podcasters have spent the last four years wringing our hands to explain how 81% of Evangelicals could vote for Trump despite the convictions of our faith. Scholar Kristin Kobes du Mez demonstrates that our vote wasn't despite our faith, but because of it. She joins our podcast to explore how Evangelicals have baked militant white patriarchy into our faith. It's another episode we just couldn't quit - and hopefully neither can you!

We're giving thanks for Lovecraft Country - HBO's powerful new horror show that suggests humans are the real monsters. Irene M. Cho joins us to break down our favorite themes - and scares! - in a double episode that will keep you through Thanksgiving!

It's time to decompress! We talk about how we spent election night (all five days of it!) and how we're processing the outgoing and incoming administrations. Plus... almost definitely clear-ish proof of aliens! (Maybe?)
