Episode 6: Green Urbanism is From the Devil
<p><span>Is the government trying to trap you in your apartment? Are efforts to reduce traffic in highly congested cities like Toronto and London really a plan to control your entire life? </span></p><p><br></p><p><span>15 minute cities sound convenient, but why do some people think they are a trap? 15 minute cities have been described online as the new climate lockdown, and protests against traffic calming measures have grown. Reactionary groups have taken up a seemingly benign urban planning initiative and claim it is an infringement of civil liberties. Des Fitzgerald from University College, Cork talks about green urbanism and 15 minute cities, and then explains the online claims about environment and urban planning, and how genuine complaints with government policy have been conflated with fears of future lockdowns. </span></p><p><br></p><p>For more information about research-based media by <strong>Axis Mundi Media </strong>visit:<a href="https://www.axismundi.us/" rel="nofollow"> www.axismundi.us</a></p><p><br></p><p>For more information about public scholarship by the <strong>Institute for Religion, Media, and Civic Engagement</strong> follow us @irmceorg or go to<a href="https://www.irmce.org/" rel="nofollow"> www.irmce.org</a></p><p><br></p><p>Funding for this series has been generously provided by the Henry Luce Foundation. </p><p>Creator: Dr. Susannah Crockford</p><p>Executive Producer: Dr. Bradley Onishi (@bradleyonishi) </p><p>Audio Engineer: Scott Okamoto (@rsokamoto)</p><p>Production Assistance: Kari Onishi </p><p><a href="https://sociology.exeter.ac.uk/staff/crockford/" rel="nofollow">Dr. Susannah Crockford</a> (@suscrockford): <a href="https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/R/bo86433786.html" rel="nofollow"><em>Ripples of the Universe: Spirituality in Sedona, Arizona</em></a></p><p><br></p><p><em>Further Reading: </em></p><p><br></p><p><span><span></span></span><span>Fitzgerald, Des. </span><em>The Living City: Why Cities Don't Need to Be Green to Be Great</em><span>.

Episode 5: Fighting the Great Reset
<p><span>It’s Angels vs. Demons. Light vs. Dark, The New World Order vs. Real Patriots. The ancient gdds have returned to take over the globe. Who will stop them? </span></p><p><br></p><p><span>Spiritual warfare is common in evangelical circles. But how does belief in a cosmic battle lead to conspiracy theories on earth? Why do some in evangelical circles - and beyond - believe that there is a global conspiracy involving ancient gods, transnational banks, big government, and the Illuminati? In this installment, we unpack how cross-faith coalitions can be formed through the flexible symbol of a spiritual war against demons. We talk with Jonathon O’Donnell from Queen’s University, Belfast, focusing on the context of Covid-19. How has the idea of a ‘Great Reset’ spread in evangelical online spaces? What are the real world consequences for our public square? </span></p><p><br></p><p>For more information about research-based media by <strong>Axis Mundi Media </strong>visit:<a href="https://www.axismundi.us/" rel="nofollow"> www.axismundi.us</a></p><p><br></p><p>For more information about public scholarship by the <strong>Institute for Religion, Media, and Civic Engagement</strong> follow us @irmceorg or go to<a href="https://www.irmce.org/" rel="nofollow"> www.irmce.org</a></p><p><br></p><p>Funding for this series has been generously provided by the Henry Luce Foundation. </p><p>Creator: Dr. Susannah Crockford</p><p>Executive Producer: Dr. Bradley Onishi (@bradleyonishi) </p><p>Audio Engineer: Scott Okamoto (@rsokamoto)</p><p>Production Assistance: Kari Onishi </p><p><a href="https://sociology.exeter.ac.uk/staff/crockford/" rel="nofollow">Dr. Susannah Crockford</a> (@suscrockford): <a href="https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/R/bo86433786.html" rel="nofollow"><em>Ripples of the Universe: Spirituality in Sedona, Arizona</em></a></p><p><br></p><p><em>Further Reading: </em></p><p><span>O’Donnell, S.
