  • Happy Rant #103 - Pour Overs, Christian Athletes, and Thought Leaders
    In this episode of The Happy Rant Ted, Barnabas, and Ronnie discuss the following Pourovers: what are they an why are they? Isn't a pourer just a slow version of what a coffee maker does? How does an athlete being a "brother in Christ" effect our feelings towards him? What if the athlete is Sam Bradford, the over-prices substitute for the QB on Barnabas's favorite football team? What is a "thought leader"? What exactly do they lead? Do real leaders of thought call themselves thought leaders?
