from The Common Good Podcast · host Brian From
It's been 32 years since the OJ Simpson car chase captivated the nation, and Brian From takes a trip down memory lane while reflecting on how the moment became a cultural touchpoint for an entire generation. Then: a fascinating NPR piece on the more than half of parents who now track their 18-to-25-year-olds on their phones — is it healthy connection or a new kind of surveillance? A candid, personal segment on two sins Brian says don't get talked about enough: envy and bitterness, including his own recent struggle holding onto bitterness after being hurt by people he trusted. The Supreme Court halts the execution of a death row inmate who became a Christian ministry leader during 26 years of incarceration, raising hard questions about transformation, redemption, and the death penalty. A new flip phone blocks social media and browsers at the system level — and people are buying it. A study finds one in three young adults are heavy smartphone users driven by FOMO and low self-control. And Tim Challies offers a simple but convicting filter for everything you consume online: does this content exist to bless you, or does it exist to serve the one who made it?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
