JR. welcomes fellow podcaster Megan Tietz of the Sorta Awesome Podcast to discuss the literary firestorm surrounding Harper Lee’s recently-published Harper Lee’s sequel/prequel to To Kill a Mockingbird. We dive into the complicated publication history, and spend a lot of time on the book’s controversial portrayal of beloved Atticus Finch. Along the way, we reflect on our own histories with the book, race and why this might be the perfect time for us to read the book.
Producer Erik Lokkesmoe of Different Drummer productions joins us to talk making films about faith. We talk about his newest film, LAST DAYS IN THE DESERT. A provocative movie imagining Jesus' temptations in the wilderness, this movie spoke to all of us. Come behind the scenes of this breathtaking movie!
