The world is hitting a point where it is impossible to have conversations. Disagreeing with someone means they must be a fool, so there is no reason to talk. We need to get back to discourse! We need to be willing to hear another person’s opinion! We need to wrestle with thoughts, and faith, and all those things together! This podcast seeks to open up conversation in the best method I have ever found; with a beer and a pipe… or cigar! Cinder & Hops invites you to sit down with me, and my guest, each episode! Grab a beer & a smoke, listen in & enjoy the conversation!

    Today is EPISODE 2 of SEASON 2!! Alex and I have enjoyed talking about the intersection of faith and politics in the last two episodes (Christian Anarchism & Election Day chat). Today we tackle it a little more specifically, looking at the current American political sphere, while also addressing it specifically from our faith in Christ.

    Tonight is a FIRST for Cinder & Hops! Two big changes, that are only obvious if you are watching... Elizabeth, the guest, is there IN HOUSE with us! Another fun aspect is that my beautiful wife is an extra special guest! We talk about how Christians have lost much of the imagination that used to be a part of our daily understanding. Enjoy the conversation, and forgive me for the change in audio halfway through. This is the second time we attempted this episode, and even this one had a number of issues to work through. The audio was due to the mic messing up halfway through, without me realizing... Regardless though, enjoy the chat! I thoroughly enjoyed this chat, and hope you will too!

    For the third After Hours episode, I bring you some of the chat that came after my cousin and I talked a few weeks back. Unfortunately the call got weird, and I lost the audio just under 30 min in, so we both didn't get to officially end our points - but, like real life, sometimes we just have to move on and have conversation again later! Faith is never easy to talk about, but remember here on Cinder & Hops the goal is to engage in conversation. To grow. To learn. And to keep having those conversations!
