About Anazao Podcasts

Anazao (an-ah-zah’-o) is a Koine Greek word meaning “new life” or “life restored,” describing both a moment of revival and an ongoing process of renewal. To wake from death, to be re-formed, or to continually renew the mind, body, and soul is to "anazao". Our network aims to live into that renewal by asking better questions and engaging the world as it actually is. We explore a variety of topics such as martial arts, Taoism, horror, science, pop culture, questions of Church unity, and more. Too often Christian media settles for safe answers and shallow conversations; we’d rather wrestle with what’s hard, strange, or uncomfortable. By digging beneath clichés and taking ideas seriously - whether from the Bible, a dojo, a film, the Church, or a laboratory - we believe faith doesn’t shrink. It restores, engages, and brings new life.

   The One Where We Peak

   Our BEST EPISODE EVER (probably, at least if we are being very realistic and humble about it). It's no secret we love to support and uplift women, but this episode we talk all about it! We have so many great women to shout out, but we also talk about why we think it's so important. Also, some great announcements, like the return of the Banned Books Club! Go to our Patreon to join!

   Street Fighter (2026)

   "To live is to fight, and to fight is to live." Welcome to my dojo, this is kung Fu Pizza Party. Today, we are headed back to the Arcade for one of the reasons why this whole series even exists. This is my review of Street Fighter starring Andrew Koji and a whole bunch of other people. After all this time, they finally did it. They embraced what Street Fighter is supposed to be and have made an excellent Street Fighter film. From stellar performances from Collina Liang and Andrew Schultz, to David Dastmalchin protraying the cult leader side of M. Bison, to great fight choreography and humor throughout. Street Fighter nailed it, but it is not perfect. I get into all the nitty gritty in this review.
