SF Radio 9.12: Behind the Walls of BABYLON

by Leave a Comment

Damien Chazelle charmed the world with La La Land love letter to Hollywood but his new film, Babylon, is… different. Willing to expose the excessive nature of the industry, this film features over-the-top visuals and wild content but, at the same time, wants to celebrate the dream of making cinema. This week, Seun Olowo-Ake, Adam Kline and newcomer Daniel Eng step behind the walls of BABYLON to talk about Hollywood’s fatal flaws and Manny’s tears.

What’s New? Nothing (Except This!)

by Leave a Comment

So it’s 2023. What’s new? Nothing, really. Well, except one thing. What is it? What’s actually, really, truly new?

Find out in this mindbogglingly exiting, fast-paced Season 5 opener of the Your Sunday Drive podcast.

Topics covered include: McCarthy and the same-old political divisions; how Jesus offers a third way vis-a-vis divisions; how to not let the culture wars steal our joy (a la Trevin Wax) because we’re “citizens of Heaven and fight Mordor with the joy of the Shire in our hearts” (a la Tolkien – happy bday, professor!); btw that’s at least two French phrases used so far in this description (oui oui!); rewatching Mad Men and the providential, still-small-voice moment involving “The Door” where you can discover the actually, really, truly new thing (spoiler, it involves the gospel and Jesus and all that, as per usual w this podcast 🙂 ); the new Avatar and how some movies really change things; probably other topics come up in there as well, but who’s to say really? listen and find out I guess.

Come along for Your Sunday Drive – quick conversation about current events, politics, pop culture and more, from the perspective of a couple of guys trying to follow Jesus.

Hosts: Matt Hill and Nate Polzin. Presented by the Church in Drive of Saginaw, MI, as often as possible. Please visit churchindrive.com and facebook.com/thechurchindrive
