In this week’s DXP Politics Block we discuss Bill Maher’s recounting of his visit to the White House and spending a few hours with his mortal enemy, Donald Trump.

40:21

In this week’s DXP Culture Block we discuss the new film, The Sinner, which made Christian frustrated (not because he didn’t like it, but because he didn’t like it as much as the glowing reviews made him expect to). Then we turn our attention to the heroic, unprecedented, and death-defying trip that some celebrities took to space for eleven minutes or something.…

In this week’s Religion block of Drunk Ex-Pastors Jason sets forth a broad paradigm for looking at religion and Christian themes: Exile/Empire.

In this episode of DXP we dive into the tariffs discussion, pointing out their usefulness within the context of a fully-orbed commitment to American workers, while doubting their utility in isolation from such a plan.

30:14

With this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we are trying out a new format! In this first of three weekly blocks we focus on culture, and specifically the sexual assault and rape case against English comedian and political commentator Russell Brand. We reflect on the odd nature of the timeline of events leading to the charges being filed, as well as the challenging nature of these types of cases (especially when focused on events from several decades ago.…

1:49:45

We begin this episode with some banter about the Lakers game that Jason took his dad to, and then we continue our respite from all things political and divisive by discussing the movies that most impacted us. This week we go from 1987-1997, talking about such films as Say Anything, Forrest Gump, Braveheart, and Good Will Hunting — sharing what we were going through at the time we saw them, how they affected us, and how we feel about them so many years later.…

1:45:13

In this episode we take a much-needed break from politics and dedicate the majority of the episode to taking a walk down Movie-Memory Lane. We begin the year we each saw our very first movie in a theater (1977), and then list the films we remember seeing, why we enjoyed them, and how they impacted us. We make it to 1987, and will pick up from there in our next episode.…

il y a 11 weeks1:27:38

1:27:38

We begin this episode with a discussion about various Oscar-nominated films, hardly any of which Jason has heard of. We briefly discuss the drama surrounding Blake Lively and the side effects of Ozempic, and then turn our attention to whether or not people on the right regret their vote for Trump.

Podcast #510: Fundamentalism, Emilia Perez, and Closedmindedness 1:31:15

il y a 12 weeks1:31:15

1:31:15

In this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we talk about the fact that “fundamentalist” is not an inherently religious posture, but can be applied to politics as well. We discuss the film Emilia Perez, which critics love but audiences don’t (presumably because every single one of them is a transphobe). We hear from a caller about his frustration over the mispronunciation of words, and play another voicemail about whether it is closedminded to refuse to listen to Jack Hibbs.…

1:24:14

We begin this episode in the middle of a conversation about the blockbuster trade that the Lakers just pulled off, and quickly pivot to Elon Musk’s “Nazi salute” during the presidential inauguration party, discussing whether or not Musk is actually a Nazi or just thinks they’re cool. We listen to Bishop Budde’s exhortation to Trump about being merciful to the downtrodden, and then springboard to the issue of immigration more broadly. Lastly, we hear from a caller about the proposed use of Guantanamo Bay to house immigrant criminals.…

Podcast #508: TikTok, China, and U.S. Propaganda 1:12:47

il y a 15 weeks1:12:47

1:12:47

We spend most of this episode discussing the recent (but temporarily suspended) TikTok ban. We lay out why TikTok is unique and important and what might be the impetus behind the government's desire to ban TikTok. We discuss the "TikTok refugees" fleeing to RedNote, another social media platform actually owned by China, and the unfettered access it gives Americans into daily Chinese life and culture. We talk about how this is backfiring against the American government as Americans are beginning to realize that much of the government's concern over Chinese propaganda may actually be American propaganda.…

We kick off this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors with an update about the health of Jason’s mom (or lack thereof), which springboards into a discussion of death and how we cope with it. We talk about the Los Angeles fires and the public’s reaction to wealthy people losing their homes, and then discuss the current state of political discourse and its partisan, tribal character. We conclude by reading the manifesto of the CEO shooter Luigi Mangione.…

il y a 17 weeks1:20:00

1:20:00

In this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we catch up on some listeners’ voicemails. We discuss the issue of campaign promises and whether they reveal candidates’ actual intentions, or if they’re only generic indicators of their ideology. We talk about the intertwining of democracy and violence, expressing serious suspicion about whether the former is ever possible without the latter. Lastly we explore the relationship of wealth and power (as in, why do the obscenely rich continue to accumulate more and more?).…

il y a 19 weeks1:17:36

1:17:36

In this episode of DXP Christian forces Jason to take an online test without knowing what exactly is being tested. We discuss the recent extradition of folk hero (*I meant for folk hero to have a strikethrough*) vigilante Luigi Mangione, and wonder aloud whether his “manifesto” will ever be made public, as well as the disproportionate response to his actions compared to those whose crimes do not strike at the core of capitalist power. We talk about the media’s feigned hand-wringing over the incoming administration being “the wealthiest in history,” and the conclude with a brief discussion about the coming TikTok ban.…

1:41:30

In this episode we wrap up our post-election thoughts and discuss the fallout of our daring and unprecedented suggestion that we listen to our opponents with an open mind (gasp!). We address some of our listeners’ concerns and pushback, offering some pushback of our own, ultimately concluding that charitable discourse begins with letting those across the aisle tell us what they’re about rather than taking the word of those who hate them.…
