Podcast Overview

A conversation podcast in which the (non-celebrity) host and a (non-celebrity) guest talk about their lives, current events, politics, culture, art, music, philosophy, religion—wherever the conversation takes them. The premise of this podcast is that most non-famous people have interesting things to say about a whole host of topics. Although social media gives these people new platforms, those platforms (e.g., Twitter, Facebook) are built for "takes," not in-depth conversations. As a friend put it when describing this podcast: think Studs Terkel meets Joe Rogan ... kind of.

Ep 6: Conversation with Chris Dart

<p>This episode is a conversation with my long-time friend Chris Dart, recorded on August 29, 2020.</p> <p>Chris lives and works in Oregon, and we begin our conversation by talking about how different the response to COVID-19 has been in sparsely populated Oregon from the response in cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. From there, the conversation jumps around to the simple life, music in general and movie music in particular, authenticity, materialism, purposeful living, and the truism that quantity does not equal quality.</p> <p>This is a fun conversation, and perhaps a bit more light-hearted than previous episodes.</p> <p>Enjoy.</p> <p><u><strong>Music for this episode:</strong></u><strong> </strong>Good Night by Siobhan Dakay (c) copyright 2019 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/SiobhanD/60107 Ft: MyVanillaworld</p> <p><u><strong>Episode art:</strong></u> Photograph by yours truly.</p>

Ep. 5: Conversation with Jacob Torbeck

<p>This episode is a conversation with Jacob Torbeck.</p> <p>Jacob is a PhD candidate at Loyola University in Chicago's Integrated Studies in Ethics and Theology program. Jacob and I have crossed paths many times over the past 20 or so years, but have never gotten to know each other well. In this conversation, we talk a bit about his background, then turn to a host of other topics: Jesuits and liberation theology, the unity and diversity within Catholicism, Jake's faith and his reasons for pursuing theology as an academic discipline, teaching theology and ethics to college students, faith, and the relationships between faith and science, faith and institutions, and faith and today's party politics.</p> <p>Enjoy.</p> <p><u><strong>Things to Check Out (shared by Jacob):</strong></u></p> <p>The Left Side of the Church (article published in Jacobin, available here: <a href="https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/12/church-liberation-theology-latin-america-left">https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/12/church-liberation-theology-latin-america-left</a>)</p> <p>The Violence of Love: Quotations from Archbishop Romero (free book, available here: <a href="http://www.romerotrust.org.uk/homilies-and-writings/violence-love">http://www.romerotrust.org.uk/homilies-and-writings/violence-love</a>)</p> <p>Silence by Shusaku Endo (book, available here: <a href="https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?cm_sp=SearchF-_-topnav-_-Results&amp;kn=Endo%20Silence&amp;sts=t">https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?cm_sp=SearchF-_-topnav-_-Results&amp;kn=Endo%20Silence&amp;sts=t</a>)</p> <p><br></p> <p><u><strong>Book debunking the "skills gap" myth:</strong></u></p> <p>About halfway through our conversation, I got sidetracked talking about STEM and the myth of the "skills gap."
