We took one look at the abyss this week and both, simultaneously, said: "Nope. No thanks." So instead we are stepping away from business as usual and looking towards the cross. It's our favorite week of the year, being high church Episcopalian theologians, and so, you know. We needed to just dwell on the things about Holy Week that mean the most to us.

Okay, we needed another breather. Did you? Sure you did. The Abyss keeps on being abyssal, and so we need more lighthearted to break up the misery. Therefore, we asked on our friend Viktor, the AnarchoTolkienist, to come back to the show and talk about our favorite Oxford professor, JRR Tolkein! We go into the life and the theology of the professor, and really dig into the meat of his work.

From the Narnia series, the Space Trilogy, and his many books on theology, C.S. Lewis is a much beloved figure in modern Christianity, and frankly we just needed to talk about him. To do that, we brought on a couple of fantastic guests. Billie Hoard is a friend of the show, academic, and Lewis aficionado. Kat Coffin is a C.S. Lewis scholar, a novelist, and a playwright. Together, we have just a rollicking time talking about the life and work of one of our favorite theologians and novelists.Featuring: Billie Hoard (she/her)Bluesky: @billieiswriting.bsky.socialSubstack: https://billieiswriting.substack.com/Kat Coffin (she/her)Bluesky: @katinoxford.bsky.socialIf you want to support us, join our Patreon!patreon.com/TheAnarchodoxPodcastEmail us at: [email protected]: @anarchodoxpod.bsky.socialCohosts:Bill Eldridge (he/him)BlueSky:@bill-eld.bsky.socialMae Forrest Barnes (she/her)BlueSky: @dr-maeforrest.bsky.social#theology #christianity #religion #anarchy #fascism #christiananarchy #politics #comedy

It is everywhere, and it's dangerous. Bullshit is the primary language of our fascist regime, and so we need to know what it is, how it works, who uses it and why. To do that, we brought our friend Billie Hoard onto the show, whose newest project is exploring the dynamics and mechanics of bullshit in our modern communication landscape. Join us for an excellent and earnest discussion on bullshit, because somebody's got to talk about it and it might as well be us.

Welp, we finally did it. We managed to bring everything full circle, and brought on an Eastern Orthodox theologian to do it! Today our guest is Kevin Mellis (she/they), an independent scholar, Eastern Orthodox anarchist, tabletop games aficionado, and old friend of both Bill and Mae. We go into how fiction, family, and life experience form us as anarchists, and go back into how to address the difficult issue of authority in the church within institutional contexts. Oh, and we talk about Warhammer 40k a bit, for good measure. This is going to be our season finale! Next week or two, depending on the state of things, we'll be taking a short hiatus so that Mae can do her doctoral dissertation defense. But fear not! We shall return, with an all new season of that great Anarchodox flavor you all crave so eagerly!

This week on Anarchodox, we are doing another special. John Watson has returned for a long, thoughtful and introspective episode in which we discuss our love, critiques, and philosophical quandaries with the TV show Andor. Spoiler warning for the 2 seasons in total--if you haven't watched it, go have a great couple of weeks bingeing, then come back to this episode. Additionally, this will not be the last time we do an Andor episode--stay tuned for when we have John back for a decidedly necessary part two, date TBD. In the mean time, enjoy us nerding out for 2 hours over a show about spies, revolutionaries, thieves, and hope. _________________________________________________________If you want to support us, join our Patreon!patreon.com/TheAnarchodoxPodcastBlueSky: @anarchodoxpod.bsky.socialCohosts:Bill Eldridge (he/him)BlueSky:@bill-eld.bsky.socialMae Forrest Barnes (she/her)BlueSky: @dr-maeforrest.bsky.socialSpecial guest: John Watson (they/them)BlueSky: @tricksterz.bsky.social#theology #christianity #religion #anarchy #neopagan #christiananarchy #politics #comedy #starwars #starwarsandor #andor

Well, well, well, looks like we have another guest for the summer party! This time, Bill brings on Viktor Korpi Kardell, aka the AnarchoTolkienist, for a fascinating conversation about faith, anarchism, and the details of Calvinism that transfix and vex in equal measure. Viktor is a Highland Presbyterian anarchist, a Gaelic language activist, a translator, and a founding member of the Glasgow Christian Anarchist Group. We talk about how he came into the strange faith of Christian Anarchy, the finer points of Total Depravity, the Image of God, and the utter beauty of metrical psalmody.A link to the track that introduces this episode, a traditional Gaelic setting of Psalm 72:https://open.spotify.com/track/6nyCLG2GhvRPWbKCrT33Xj?context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A1TczRb3OagrjKYN7q9vWfCIf you want to support us, join our Patreon!patreon.com/TheAnarchodoxPodcastBlueSky: @anarchodoxpod.bsky.socialCohosts:Bill Eldridge (he/him)BlueSky:@bill-eld.bsky.socialMae Forrest Barnes (she/her)BlueSky: @dr-maeforrest.bsky.socialGuest: Viktor Korpi Kardell (he/they)https://www.tumblr.com/anarchotolkienist#theology #christianity #religion # calvinism #episcopalian #anarchy #fascism #christiananarchy #politics #comedy

This week on Anarchodox, we have another special guest: Billie Hoard! Billie is a teacher, an anarchist, a mennonite, and a theologian who has a curious and fascinating focus: the psychology and theology of disgust. She joins us on the podcast to talk about her upcoming book about the psychology of fascism and how it's animating disgust can be fought with a counter-virus, the eucontaminative power of Jesus. She also talks to us about her perspective on anarchism, the joy of queerness, and the power that we wield fighting fascism with the love of Christ. _____________________________________________If you want to support us, join our Patreon!patreon.com/TheAnarchodoxPodcastBlueSky: @anarchodoxpod.bsky.socialCohosts:Bill Eldridge (he/him)BlueSky:@bill-eld.bsky.socialMae Forrest Barnes (she/her)BlueSky: @dr-maeforrest.bsky.socialSpecial guest: Billie HoardBlueSky: @billieiswriting.bsky.social‬Substack: https://billieiswriting.substack.com/#theology #christianity #religion #anarchy #fascism #disgusttheology #mennonite #christiananarchy #politics #comedy

Noted Neo-Pagan, trickster aficionado, and friend of Bill, John Watson joins us to discuss the finer issues of doing work across religious lines.

We have a very special episode on this week's Anarchodox, featuring our first guest: Micah Belong, from the Word in Black and Red! They have come to have a friendly conversation with us about the role of authority, specifically episcopacy, and how it can coexist with our anarchist outlook. It's an extra-long but also extra-good episode, and we hope you all enjoy the ride.___________________________________________________ft.
