For many kids in recent decades, summer means more time for playing video games. But even some adults still find joy in gaming. On this episode, Joey is joined by Adam Erickson, Jack Hoey, and Eric Mays to discuss the hobby they never grew out of.  

The four men share that while they don’t have the luxury of summers off anymore, they still gladly take advantage of extra time to play video games. They walk through the "memory lane” of games from the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s before sharing that some modern video game stories can move them to tears. We’ll also learn how they personally integrate this hobby into their adult life and whether or not they have to work hard to avoid video game addiction. 

Topics addressed today:  video games, video game history, video game beauty, video game as an adult hobby, and video game potential perils. 

Next week's episode 9:  summer safety in general, safety at the beach and being safe with your skin (w/ a firefighter, professional lifeguard and dermatologist.

After Joey almost walked his dog up to a giant alligator, he wonders what would have happened if a kind lady hadn’t warned him of the danger. So, on this week’s episode, Joey asks Joseph and Cody, avid studiers, collectors, and admirers of reptiles, about the dog walk that could have gone awry. The two also answer Joey's numerous questions about reptiles. 

Also on this episode, the three explore the “people type” of those who can’t get enough reptile interaction and in many cases, not enough reptiles. Joseph and Cody are two of these people. They educate listeners on venomous snakes, snake behavior, snakes local to South Carolina and Florida, and argue that gators are actually snuggly teddy bears if you treat them right. 

Topics addressed today:  snakes, gators, snake-bites, "reptile-addiction," reptiles in the suburbs.   

Next week's episode 8:  video games, video game history, video game beauty, video game as an adult hobby, and video game potential perils.

Pastor Naeem Fazal, Lead Pastor at Mosaic Church and author of his second book, Tomorrow Needs You, joins hosts Roy Jacques, Abbie Love, and Joey Svendsen to talk about the book and a little about his time as a former pastor at Seacoast Church.  

In Tomorrow Needs You, Naeem accounts for his own pain, as well as the pain he has seen others walk through recently—some from senseless tragedy. Naeem empathizes with anyone who doubts whether the world is better tomorrow and encourages us all with the truth—tomorrow needs each one of us. Naeem reminds us to slow down and recognize the beauty in humanity and that we all have a purpose. 

With deep conversation and lots of laughs, the four discuss being free from fear, if safety is something God promises, how treating God as a transactional "genie" leads to religion, and what's at stake if God doesn't redeem all things.
