  • 'Fallout' on Naivete, Evil, and Human Nature
    Apr 27 2024

    Dust off your pip boy for this one, because we're diving into the world of Fallout! Gamer bros/cinephiles (telephiles?) Logan and Tyler review Amazon's treatment of the popular video game series in this spoilerific discussion. They talk about changes to the lore, the series' satirical treatment of stereotypical Americana, how the show treats innocence, who gets the blame for human evil in the post-apocalypse, and how that interacts with the biblical view of the fallenness of human nature.

    The guys have lots of thoughts on this one, so buckle up for lively discussion!

  • Did Christian Art Make Richard Dawkins a Cultural Christian? (and Does it Matter?)
    Apr 18 2024

    The dynamic duo dives into the headlines for this episode, breaking down Richard Dawkins's viral interview and exploring the question of one of the culture's most forceful atheists identifying as a cultural Christian, and even going so far as to call it "fundamentally decent religion." What's up with that? Is this the weirdest timeline?

    The guys discuss the impact of Christian art, even in the hearts of unbelievers, whether this even matters if they don't become Christians, and both the pros and cons of so-called "cultural Christianity."
