• visiting Lego Land & Istambul
• Organizing your life around keeping Income-based repayment & my failed plan to be a prof
• THEOLOGY BEER CAMP
• why Tony loves Constantine & Monty Python
• The predicament of institutions, accountability, and injustice
• The future of evangelicalism is (NOT) David Brooks
• Righteous Gem Stones is a reality show & the MEGA pod might be
• A student asked Tripp if he was an evangelical and he was triggered
