Macrophage Strategy is a new podcast about the intersection of science and theology, along with whatever other topics are bouncing around in Macrophage's brain at any given time. Macrophages don't actually have brains. This sounded better in his head, which he doesn't have. What he does have is a strategy for eliminating dangerous foreign pathogens from the body of Christ.
