Tell us what you want, what you really really want….on the Podcast

I second more history podcasts. It'd be great to hear more from Bill Leonard and more on reading Paul in community. It'd also be interesting to hear more interviews doing church in new ways outside the typical Evangelical-Mainline continuum: you've done some great interviews with Catholic, Moravian, etc. It'd be good to see more of that.

I would like a talk on our relation with animals [as Christians], with Daniel Dombrowski or so.

What do we have to do to get Tripp to talk in pirate speak on the intro again?

Are you two going to ever try to record a podcast talking to each other again? Anything is better than your first episode. ohhh and let's get some more history podcasts.

How have you not interviewed Philip Clayton yet? What about a series on the historical jesus with different views OR eschatology?

Ideally, I'd love to hear from Thomas Altizer, Mark C Taylor, Carl Raschke, or John Milbank

I'll tell ya what I want, what I really really want. I would second the suggestion of Peter Rollins. I would also like to hear Marcus Borg. Steve Chalke maybe? Desmond Tutu would be flippin amazing.

How 'bout some of the 21 speakers for christianity21 in minneapolis in october? I've read Robert Gelinas's blog (jazztheologian.com) from time to time and enjoyed some entries. He's got his first book out, so I bet he might make time to talk with you all. Joshua Dubois--I know nothing about him other than Obama named him to head the faith-based initiatives office, or whatever it's called. Barbara Brown Taylor--love her books. Fred Craddock has a memoir out, Reflections on My Call to Preach, that is interesting if you like old school biographies, and I do. His Craddock Center (craddockcenter.org) does some good work in Appalachia, so he might be up for conversation about his book and the center among other topics. Disclosure--I do work for the publisher of Craddock's book (chalice press), but I really enjoyed reading this. Thanks for asking.

You should carry a series of debates, wherein you invite people from a similar field with interesting counter-argument positions one to another to share/listen to the other's podcast and then respond. It could take place over a series of a few weeks, or maybe even 3-way phone calls. You should bring in more current debate/criticism about global power inequities (military, political, economic, environmental, etc.), with cerebral and embodied theological responses to current human suffering. You should jon stewart-style embarrass people like rush limbaugh, dick cheney, and ann coulter (think cafferty or crossfire w/ carlson). i can arrange those interviews. ok, well, some of this is good and some not so. you decide, but don't say i didn't vote.

Also, forgot to mention, more flaming heretic show please! They are wonderful.

You guys should get Pete Rollins on the cast for sure (can't believe you haven't already!). Also more John Cobb (as often as possible), Catherine Keller, Richard Kearney, Robert Burton and Greg Boyd are some of my suggestions. Shalom, Jesse

We should get special shirts made with HomebrewedChristianity.com real big. Or mine can say "homebrewed" and yours can say "christianity.com". Since I'm pretty sure holding up a big sign that says "HomebrewedChristianity.com" is against the rules. I've waited 10 years to go to a Conan show and I don't want to get kicked out. I thought this post was going to be about the Spice Girls, since one of them lives near you.
