Everyone else has a voice in the wilderness, so why not add mine to the rest of the cacophony? In this show, I hope to provide talks and interviews about faith, life, and a little bit of everything in between. Join me as I interview guests, share articles, and speak words that I hope are, at the very least, acceptable. Support this podcast by following me on my socials and buying my book ...

A Life In Song is born of the idea that everybody has a story to tell, and everyone deserves a song. Each episode begins with an ordinary person sharing an incredible, heartbreaking, and often life-changing experience, and culminates with an original song written and performed by long time indie fave Clem Snide.

I sit down with my long-time friend and consistent guest of the show (maybe part-time co-host?), Chance Snyder, to discuss the problem of sensuality within the context of worship. Our society is chasing after feelings - good feelings, bad feelings, feelings of validation, any feelings at all, and they're eschewing logic and rationality. How do we d…

Join Mike and Jamie as they talk…

What an excellent day for filming an exorcism. THE Exorcism, in fact!

Joshua Miller and M.A. Fortin team up with Russell Crowe and a see…

In this episode of Acceptable Words, I review and comment on a fine article written by Mark Tooley on the Juicy Ecumenism blog.

A BOP n' A Movie commentary track? But that podcast has been dead for ten years!

Opening with Jigsaw saying the name "Brad" and going downhill from there, this attempt to squeeze a few …

Old Box Office Pulp was better than its word.
