A film journo and a theology student, podcasting about movies and TV. Christian hats on. Like pub-chat, but on the internet.

Episode 42
This week's news is of course the Oscars, so we talk about the surprises and the increasing diversity of the Academy's choices.
Then we review time-loop rom-com Palm Springs, and what it says about why our actions are morally significant. After that we discuss The Mauritanian and how it demonstrates humanity's shared sense of justice. Finally, we talk about how Minari uses Christian imagery, and showcases a surprisingly traditional view of family life.
