7.8 Interregnum hot takes
Saturday Oct 18, 2025
Saturday Oct 18, 2025
With the rest of the church we mourn the passing of President Nelson. In this show we look back on his life and we talk about the future, including chatting about President Oak’s October 2025 conference talk. The decision to focus on birthrates was interesting, so that prompted a deep dive, from Saturday’s Warrior to South Korea. Would love to hear your own takes!

7.7 Modernity vs. retrenchment
Wednesday Oct 01, 2025
Wednesday Oct 01, 2025
We’re back from summer and let's keep this season going! Today we focus on Chapter 6, The Perils of Reform: 1920-1945, from Benjamin Park’s book: American Zion. Many threads connect the topics, but the contest between the modernity of the early part of the 20th century and resistance to change mark the struggle for the LDS church at this time. Join us!

Related to the ‘am I better for suffering’ section of the pod: Opinion | A man at work, A half century of George Will
Quote: “In “The Roosevelts,” George, the conservative thinker, found empathy at the core of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal. “Polio gave FDR the gift of empathy. There was no suffering that he could not in some sense relate to,” George explained. “Just as the irons were clapped on his legs, the steel entered his soul by having to fight through the constant pain of therapy that was unforgiving in its demands and not very fulfilling in its success.””

The Religious Affiliation of Director George Lucas
https://web.archive.org/web/20050612235541/http://www.adherents.com/people/pl/George_Lucas.html
But hey, there is an LDS connection to George Lucas! From the article:
“Lucas eventually came to state that his religion was "Buddhist Methodist." Gary Kurtz, a Latter-day Saint who had studied Comparative Religion extensively in college and on his own, was pivotal in introducing Lucas to Eastern religions (particularly Buddhism) and Native American religion, and discussing with Lucas how best to improve "Star Wars" by giving it a believable but sufficiently universal religious underpinning. Kurtz was the producer of "Star Wars" and "The Empire Strikes Back" and also did some work on the "Star Wars" screenplay.”
