Heresy
We're back after a year and a half and still, we can't get any sleep. So what do we talk about when we can't sleep? Heresy.
-
Parenthood
So many phases and shades of being a parent. We talk about some of them here, weaving in a story from the bible about Noah and his son, Hamm post-flood, realizing being a parent never gets any easier.
-
Batman and Cancer
The Summer of 89' Tim Burton's Batman was released. We were in Dallas, Tx, visiting our father. We dig through our memories again and follow the ripples of this special film and that fateful summer.
-
Masculine/Feminine
We're back, after a bit of a break, to talk about how women have impacted our lives. In the past we've talked about our mother and father and even ourselves. But here, we take some time to explore how we've been encouraged and changed by the women in our lives. Along the way we talk about gender,...

Pandemic Blues w/special guest Craig Scott
Just when we thought we were out, it pulls us back in. Most of us just want it to be over. It's been a long and arduous road and navigating Covid-19 hasn't been easy. Face-masks and social distancing has taken it's toll on the collective masses. We welcome another voice into our mix, and discuss...
-
More Babel w/special guest Kathy Wick
We continue our discussion on the Tower of Babel with special guest, Kathy Wick. There are just too many layers to sift through in this tale of an ancient skyscraper to the heavens. Too many questions to be answered. Like whether God's dispersal of language led to more diversity or just the...
-
Tower of Babel
Communication is key. It's a subject that seems to keep rearing its head. So much so, it almost feels as though we're harping on it with questions not easily answered. Questions like, how can we truly understand each other if we're not speaking the same language? Will we truly ever know what's in...
-
Brothers Part 2
We seem at the edge of ease here. Not so much wrestling with ourselves or our pasts but in a place of cool contemplation. In a place where we can discuss the nature of communication and change. Because our lives are mostly these two things. Two things that we haven't quite mastered and haven't...
-
Brothers
We finally arrive at ourselves. After talking about our parents, we thought it only fair to turn the lens (or microphone) on one another, to see just how we got here. It proves harder than you would imagine to go inward into one's self. To really scratch the walls the ego builds for coping with…

Cain and Abel
We talk about the most infamous of brothers, Cain and Abel. Most of us know the the story in which murder is introduced into the world. That one brother slew the other. But what do we really know about these brothers and what led to this dark and fateful outcome? Why did God favor one more than…

What Have We Learned?
Of course, we learn things from our parents. But what are those things besides walking and talking and feeding ourselves? The broad personality traits, yes, we know those well. You got your Dad's sense of humor and your Mom's humility. Sure. Have you ever gone deeper with a fine-tooth comb? What...
-
Father Part 2
What is it to be a man? We find that our father more than likely struggled with this conundrum just as much as we do. And how do we define him as a man and a father? More importantly, how did he define himself in a life cut-off too soon by sickness and death. Answers to these questions may never...
-
Father Part 1
It's been over twenty years since our father passed away. And we can feel time's puzzling elasticity. To put a finger on a man's short life comes none too easy. We start at the beginning, as we always do. Back to Bastrop and it's pulpy monotony. But back maybe even further to mysterious leavings…
more -
Abraham
Abraham is the father of three of the most well known religions in the world. Yet, it's hard to reconcile the lengths he had to go to get where God needed him. We use Soren Kierkegaard's Fear and Trembling to dissect Abraham's inner life and better understand the man's place in the cosmic scheme…

Addendums and Travels
Having put the subject of our Mom to rest in the last episode, there were still a few things nagging at us. Well, one of us happened to be on the road to ease the lingering uneasiness. And there were some tough things learned and some even more enigmatic feelings that followed. We think we can…
more -
Mother Part 2
We conclude our journey along the meandering path we've taken with our mother over the years. Often times it was exactly what one would think. And often times it wasn't. It was unique to say the least. For us, anyway. For two boys who grew up in small-town Louisiana. So, at the end of this...
-
Mother Pt 1
Finally. We talk about our Mother. We recount her early upbringing in Peru and her coming of age in New Jersey. We talk about how she met our father in the Army and what Bastrop, LA was like for her as a Yankee in Confederate land. We talk about her second marriage and how much happiness that...
-
Separation Part 2
We conclude our ruminations on being separated in so many forms and instances. We talk about coming back to Louisiana in our late teens and what it was like to cut the strings of parental control, as we entered two different rites of passages. And we come full circle in our own relationship as...
-
Separation Part 1
Rolling along memory lane again. This time with an intent to draw parallels from past separations to our time now living in a pandemic. We've all been asked to isolate. Separate from each other. It's been hard for a lot of us, to learn how to live a new way. But there are places in our past that…

Memory
We remember. We recall our first memories and what it was like to grow up in small-town Louisiana. Where the weather is muggy and the recollection just as cloying. We discuss religion and how the church molded us, or bored us, in those first days of spiritual and cultural awakenings. Welcome to…
