For only our second documentary ever, Miles and James dive into “Am I Racist?” and discuss how documentaries (and mockumentaries) tell a story. As Matt becomes a DEI/antiracist expert, we highlight the underlying worldview and how it mimics the Biblical doctrines of creation, fall, and, religious penance. Join us and “do the work” of Popcorn Theology!

This week longtime listener and first time guest host Eric joins David and Miles for part 2 of our exploration of the Rings of Power. Our opinions differed on the show itself, but we remained united in our fight against the dark forces of mindless entertainment. Rings of power inspired discussions on the honorable choice to help one another, the struggle against evil, the hope of redemption, and the deceptive nature of spiritual evil.
