You Never Studied

"See? I knew it!" Said everyone in the world about Dr. Fauci's FOIA email dump... no matter what they read or didn't read. Don't worry. Hans and Evan don't dive too deeply into pandemic stuff but rather use the Fauci email stuff to talk about the internet and confirmation bias. Then Hans has a book on the plurality of elders. And then Evan saw Tenet. Or maybe Evan was inverted and will see Tenet. We're not sure. It was kinda confusing.

You know how those McDonald's Ice Cream Machines always seem to be broken? Turns out they are notoriously difficult to maintain and repair and need specialized technicians from the company that sells them to service them. Well, one startup found a way to help diagnose and repair the complicated machines. Until they get shut down by Big Fast Food and Big Ice Cream. Then Evan takes a swim in J.T. English's new book Deep Discipleship. Then Hans and Evan discuss the trailer for Chris Pratt's new Amazon film The Tomorrow War.

Hans and Evan put their confirmation bias to good use, discussing an article that highlights how awesome older millennials are at everything. Then Hans reviews a re-read of Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders, and then we talk Marvel's "See You At The Movies" Phase 4 trailer.

What happens when a Belgian farmer moves an old stone so he could drive his tractor through an area? He accidentally changed his country's border with neighboring France! Then Evan reviews a 9 Marks book on Biblical Theology. And finally Hans tells us about the Prime Video Original Movie - Without Remorse.

We all see things from our own perspective and, thus, often assume our experience is the norm. When it comes to those who are leaving the church, some new(er) research shows us that the exodus is more diverse than what might be assumed. This data can help us as shepherds, which is the book Hans reviewed. And what would an episode be if we didn't talk about Marvel? 

In this seventieth (!) regular episode we bring you what we've all feared: a world run by AI and robots. Follow that up with a book on prayer and a brief discussion on the next season of Picard and you have yourself a barn burner of an episode.

To kick off a run of a few weeks of episodes we wanted to bring you our thoughts on the recently-completed run of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.  Spoiler alert! A lot to discuss so let's dive right in.

A man tragically dies alone in his apartment (or "flat" for our European listeners) and lies undisturbed... for nine years... because he has autopay for all his bills. Hans and Evan discuss and then resume the second part of Evan's review for Matthew Barrett's book Simply Trinity. Then Evan talks about a new "discovery" Andrea made (a TV show about witches).

A Pastor/Senator tweeted a thing about Easter.  It was not great. Hans and Evan discuss it (and then discuss if they should discuss it).  Then Hans reviews another pastoral leadership book. His take: also not great. Then we check in on the old MCU on Disney + both The Falcon & Winter Soldier half-way mark and the new trailer for the Loki series.  (Our take: It's great).

What happens when an Italian mobster and fugitive uploads cooking videos on YouTube while hiding out in the Caribbean? (Hint: he gets caught) Then, Hans and Evan get theological, discussing a chapter of a book on the Trinity on Eternal Functional Subordination... and our heads hurt.  Finally, Hans brings us a musical Study Break where we talk about rapper NF's new song/video "Story."

Get it while it's hot!
