I certainly am not trying to throw the Church Basement Roadshow under the bus. But I wouldn’t do my “bad boy” image justice if I didn’t call a spade a spade.
I was gallivanting around the web this afternoon and came across some of Professor A.B. Hawthorne’s videos (which are quite hilarious btw). And lo and [...]

As alluded to on The Nick & Josh Podcast, there is going to be a Church Basement Road Show coming to a neighborhood near you. Not only have we preempted Oprah, but now we even got to preempt a trio of heretics. These guys are going to be driving around in an RV frat-boy style [...]

War & Peace (B-)
I’ll be honest. I gave this book my best shot. I started it over Thanksgiving and was going to read it through the holidays and into Christmas. It’s the only thing I tried to read in December and it was really, really tough. The translation I picked up topped out at almost [...]

Tony Jones has a new book coming out in March 2008. Tony was gracious enough to send me an advanced reader’s copy (in advance of an upcoming podcast) and I devoured it in 3 sittings. While I’m prone to hyper-active spurts of exaggeration, in this particular instance I’m afraid I’ll understate things. I think The [...]
