In this episode, Tripp & Bo dive deep into the concept of digital colonialism and how tech giants are reshaping human interaction and power dynamics. They explore how data is extracted, processed, and monetized, creating a new colonial class and transforming social relations. Through a critical lens, they discuss the implications for individual autonomy, the erosion of social trust, and potential ways to resist and reimagine our digital lives. Join them for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges the very frameworks of our current digital society.

A Five-Week Online Lenten Class w/ John Dominic Crossan

Join us for a transformative 5-week Lenten journey on "Paul the Pharisee: Faith and Politics in a Divided World."This course examines the Apostle Paul as a Pharisee deeply engaged with the turbulent political and religious landscape of his time.

Through the lens of his letters and historical context, we will explore Paul’s understanding of Jesus’ Life-Vision, his interpretation of the Execution-and-Resurrection, and their implications for nonviolence and faithful resistance against empire. Each week, we will delve into a specific aspect of Paul’s theology and legacy, reflecting on its relevance for our own age of autocracy and political turmoil. . For details and to sign-up for any donation, including 0, head over here.
