In this bonus Patreon podcast, I chat with my friend Luke S about the events of this past week and the tragedy of the modern Evangelical church.
I'm having conversations with lots of people to process everything that happened this week. I hope that recording them and publishing them will help you too.
Welcom...

Hey Patrons,
Decided to hop on the mic this morning and share a few thoughts on what's been happening with me over the past week.
I am wishing all of you a safe and happy New Year. Thank so much for all your support this year, and all your concern for 2020-12-31 18:01:59 +0000 UTC View Post
Despite my recent medical fiasco, I managed to pull myself together for long enough to put together a quick video review of Wonder Woman 1984, which I found to be disappointing. Thanks, as always, Patrons for making my wor...

Our Back to the Future retrospective series concludes with a review of Part III featuring the great Joanna Robinson! We talk about what's so great about the love story at the heart of this film, our favorite callbacks, the time travel mechanics, plus many, many other completely irrelevant tangents. In other words, it's a clas...

A few thoughts on what happened to me today.
Thanks to everyone who reached out to check in on me today. It was greatly appreciated.
2020-12-24 07:04:01 +0000 UTC View PostFriends,
I woke up this week and discovered something very unpleasant. Blood has begun pooling in my left arm at a fairly upsetting rate. My understanding is this is a condition known as thoracic outlet syndrome. I'm taking some anti-inflammatory medication today and hoping that will resolve the issue. I've also consult...

This viral clip of Hasan Minhaj has been going around the internet again recently. In this brief video, I share a few personal thoughts on it.
The terms "bubble" or "pod" have been thrown around a lot these days, but it's become clear to me pretty recently that most people aren't really using these terms in a way that's meaningful.
So, @joyofnapping and I put together this video to provide some tips on how we formed our bubble and provided some documents...

With the election last week, I wasn't quite sure when to release a podcast episode reviewing a movie called Apocalypse Now, but the period of governmental limbo we're in right now feels just as good of a time as any!

2020-11-07 18:48:05 +0000 UTC View PostHi Patrons,
During better times, I'd have hoped to have already uploaded/published a new podcast, maybe even a vlog, reacting to the results of this year's momentous U.S. Election. Sadly, it was not to be: We don't even know the results yet and it's unclear when we will.
So, I'm waiting and hoping we'll get some c...
