This week, Matt and Adam are joined by Casey Thompson to talk, spice, messiah's, and Denis Villeneuve's new adaptation of Dune.
As the source of so many sci-fi and fantasy tropes, it is hard to talk about this movie independent of all that came after. So in the first segment, the conversation twists and turns around ideas of myth, influence, and ideas of leadership in a broken world. In the second segment, the group discusses how Dune might help us understand the lectionary texts for November 14, year B. Finally, Matt talks about Children's lit and Adam reflects on a synth chord from an old Radiohead album.

On this week's show, Adam and Matt are joined by pastor Becca Messman to talk about the rise and fall of the movie, Love, Actually. Released in 2003, Love, Actually had a run as a feel-good Christmas movie before it began to evaporate into the ether. This episode sorts through the craziness of the movie and tries to find some redeeming qualities that could bring some Christmas cheer. The conversation then turns to the lectionary passages for December 20th and how Love, Actually might help make sense of them. It's a crazy task, but hey, that's the show. The show concludes with some talk about theaters and theater. So grab some egg nog and come along for a wild Christmas ride.
