“Attempts to address deeper social issues but succeeds at banality. Contains “facts” but really fails to piece them together for anything meaningful, sort of like the way a fourth grader would pull facts out of an encyclopedia for a class project.
When it does formulate a conclusion, that conclusion is - surprise! - typically very amenable to themes of social justice and collectivist thinking while putting in a healthy dose of anti-Capitalism that would make Marx proud. I’m sure it’s a hit with the younger crowd, most of whom are no doubt a product of years of Government school indoctrination.
It doesn’t seem to occur to them that to juxtapose their “progressive” (in quotes, because progressivism is inherently regressive, recycling old, failed ideas that lead to misery and death squads) ideas with the term “Capitalism”, is to take the same lens or point of view that Marx himself took to arrive at his utopian fantasy of socialism.
The episode on Communism versus Socialism is a perfect example of some pretty shallow analysis., that fails to point out anything original or particularly significant.
So, go ahead and subscribe. Listen to more of the whining about “exploitation, systems that keep people poor” and the like, all on technology like iPhones, computer chips and the internet, none of which is the product of the worldview they espouse. But them again, Marx was funded by his wealthy buddy Engels, whose money came from industry.
Every Marxist needs support from those who create things, in search of profit in a competitive market.”

“Though covering issues of Chrisitanity and church issues (some very dense topics), episodes are quite approachable and easy to listen too. The host does a great job weaving in expert voices and different multimedia to keep things from getting stale. Hoping this Podcast continues!”

“I don’t know how he does it, but Chris is able to break down HUGE concepts over the course of 30+ episode seasons. BUT not a single episode is dry or boring. Each episode is dynamic and relevant to the overall throughline he is tracing through history.
He is far from repeating the same old...”Read full review »
