The guest this week is Kevin Schlereth, who is the President of the nonprofit that runs Audiofeed Festival. The four day festival will be on July 4-7th this year in Urbana Illinois. If you want to know more about the festival's heart and beginnings and what to expect this year.
On this episode, we are joined by keyboardist and songwriter Ojo Taylor, guitarist and writer Gym Nicholson, long-time lead vocalist Sim Wilson, and drummer Gary Olsen of the Orange County rock band Undercover for an expansive conversation recorded in front of a live audience at the Audiofeed Festival in Illinois. Undercover emerged in the early 1980s at the pole position of the frenetic “second wave” of Jesus Rock that saw an explosion of New Wave, Punk, Rock, and pop bands like Lifesavors, Altar Boys, Lifters, Common Bond, Crumbacher, Youth Choir, and others fill high school auditoriums, bowling alleys, parks, and church youth halls with a righteous racket that thrilled teens, worried some parents, and eventually set the stage for the big business era of Christian rock in the 90s. Ojo Taylor not only led Undercover, though, he was also a curator of this bourgeoning scene – managing labels, producing albums, and putting together one of the most important early compilation albums – which spins when we crank up the now sticker-covered Jukebox for an overview of those heady, loud, formative years. Ojo made more waves in what's left of this underground community when he publicly admitted that he no longer holds the same religious beliefs for which he rocked so passionately back in the day. Like others, his personal spiritual journey has taken him in a direction that does not include the Evangelical faith of his younger years. But earlier this year, when a Christian music festival invited the long-defunct band to reunite for a special show, they agreed – and rocked Audiofeed (and before that, the Anaheim House of Blues) quite successfully. Why would a band with differing beliefs agree to gigs like those? As Ojo says, “Belief is overrated. Agreement is overrated. Love is underrated.” Find full Show Notes, including photos and video from Undercover's set at Audiofeed HERE or at TrueTunes.com/Undercover Undercover Music List Opening Segment Phil Keaggy & Rex Paul – Full Circle (podcast theme) Undercover – Man, O, Man; World Come Crashing Down; He's In Love With You Interview Segment Undercover – Excuse Us; I'll Be a Fool; Daddy-O; God Rules; Cry Myself to Sleep; Darkest Hour; Is Anyone Thirsty?; Work It Out; Devotion; Dark Night; Bridge of Life; One to One; Promenade; Land of Luxury The Altar Boys – I'm Into God Freedom of Soul – Caught in a Land of Time JUKEBOX Blessed Hope – Something More Bob & Joy Cull – Sail Away Undercover – One of These Days The Proclaimers (U.S.) – Rejoice Stephen Crumbächer – It Don't Matter Youth Choir – It's So Wonderful The Lifters – Listen Children The Omega Band – Idols Sharon McCall – From the Grave C.I.A. – Your Choice Malcolm and the Mirrors – Apathy The Altar Boys – Go for You Lifesavers – She's On Fire SFC – Phase III Adam Again – Eyes Wide Open The Electrics – Get to Heaven The Violet Burning – Low (Third Wave) The Prayer Chain – Chatterbox (Third Wave) D.A.S. – Beautiful World (Third Wave) Dakoda Motor Co. – Wind ‘N' Sea (Fourth Wave) Mortal – Paradigm One (Fourth Wave) Fold Zandura – Deep Surround Seven Day Jesus – Strength Spot Breaks Phil Keaggy & Mike Pachelli – Maccadocious (Two of Us)
Few artists have committed to the ethic of apocalyptic – even gothic – Americana as completely as Colorado's David Eugene Edwards. From his early work with The Denver Gentlemen and 16 Horsepower to the last two decades of material he has offered via Wovenhand, Edwards practically haunts every stage, and album, with spirits that are simultaneously spectral and Biblical. On this episode of the True Tunes Podcast, John J. Thompson sits down with Edwards in front of a live audience at the Audiofeed Festival in Champaign, Illinois to talk about his origins, his musical concepts, and his mystical perspectives on everything from the nature of art and humanity to the essence of spirituality and redemption. Then we crank up the jukebox to hear some other seminal apocalyptic music – and consider the value and purpose of provocative art in general. What is it that is being hidden, revealed, discovered, or avoided, when we drop the needle these days?

David and Chunjay discuss where they are and what they are doing for the weekend. David discusses the ups and downs of therapy. On the collapse of silence. What is lacking? Sometimes it’s not stuff. On living within the evangelical subculture. Discussing whiskey. On Jamey and David’s friendship, and the wisdom David imparted to him. On sharing stories. David is working on a project called Postmodern Hymns. On Christianity and Art. On the narrative of faith giving way to the narrative of consumption. On how Christian music has become a safe soccer mom thing. On John Reuben saying “shit” on his new record. Lots of other stuff. :) Kenosis - about emptying, not acquiring knowledge. On success vs. vulnerability. On being helpful to friends. Great lines from David: “Sex is a gift or a curse, depending on how you handle it.” “Maybe postmodernity and consumption are not the best thing for the soul.” “I’m an older guy trying to figure out, ‘What is my legacy?’” “I get to be around children a lot. I find that the older I get, the more and more children make. They’re still vibrant about life.” “In ancient cultures, there was a lot more storytelling, and people had those stories inform them.” “As the consumption became more important than the proclamation, the proclamation got dumbed down, and the consumption went up, and so now it’s bad art, and it’s trying to talk about God simultaneously. It’s like, oh, crap, we don’t need more of this.” “Any guy who wants to walk in integrity with his sexuality knows that he needs assistance.” “I think self is much more communal. It’s not just communal in the sense of you’re meant to be a part of something bigger than yourself. You don’t become yourself until you understand you’re a part of something bigger than yourself. There’s a mutuality to it.” “What part of my life am I in denial about? Because I think somehow what has happened to me in the past when I did those things, it wouldn’t happen again. What would lead me to believe that I could somehow bypass that? And when somebody tells you the story of where they’re at, it’s a reminder of their mutual vulnerability.” “Our culture doesn’t teach us to wait for the good stuff.” “I was trying to act like I was angry, because that was what I was told to do. The truth is, I had to get in touch with how pervasive those acts had…affected me, made me afraid of people, made me stand-offish, made me fearful of intimacy, made me distrustful of EVERYBODY. I’m talking at a deep level. Physically distrustful.” “And of course it fed into some of my weaknesses, like rather than be in a healthy sexual relationship, I would be more of a voyeur. I would stand apart. I didn’t know how to be in my body, because I left my body as a 6 year old kid.” “I’ve had to realize that not going to that place and processing that was very dangerous for my soul. I didn’t know it, but it was forming in me this sense that I was what happened to me.” “And we often tend to think like we are what happened to us. So if somebody divorces me unfairly, if someone abuses me unfairly, fires us unfairly, says something to us that’s unfair, there’s this part of us, the little kid inside, ‘Well, I guess that’s who I am.’ And then we start making decisions that affirm that. And then one day we wake up and find that we’re the perpetrator that hurt us.” “Now, it’s more of a protecting myself by believing what’s beautiful about me, what’s beautiful and true. And not what’s dark and hidden.” “Before I was trying to be angry because people would say, ‘Oh, he’s working on it.’” “Do you like tacos?” “Look at me, sure.” Lines from Chunjay: “The intent and context. I played a couple of ‘Christian’ shows this summer, and I really am trying to avoid doing that. The must that I am writing now belongs in bars and breweries, and coffee shops where adults are. And I remember playing my first youth group in more than a decade. And I cut two songs out. It’s not that I said anything that was technically wrong, but gosh, our lead song is ‘The Waitress Song,’ and we talk about drinking rum and Coke, and asking the waitress for her phone number, and that is not what I’m trying to put in front of 14 years old.” What are we drinking: David Bunker: Riesling Wine Jamey Bennett: 1816 Chattanooga Whiskey, a Yuengling David Bunker’s info: Find him on Facebook, and look up the notes if you friend him.

Traveling around and talking to podcast listeners, we’ve found that The BadChristian Podcast is listened to by pastors, volunteers, and attendees of mainstream churches. Most of them just don’t admit to it. Aaron Lunsford tells his story of starting a BBQ business, having his new rig break down, and seeing his actual business go up in literal flames. All in one day.

Enjoy this live performance as a BC Clubber introduces the podcast that Matt, Toby and Joey perform live in front of hundreds of Christian festival goers in between Emery sets. Joey fails to honor the crowd and control his language, and Matt suggests that Christianity need to police their own in the same way that we would hope Islam would.

We talk about holy roller internet trolls and Toby’s befuddlement with Christians praying with their arms extended. Also, is there such thing as a stupid prayer request? What about praying for the dead and the ridiculous “unspoken request?” More importantly, we catch up with Dan and Nate from Sherwood to discuss their new record and tour as well as debut a new track from the album.

Jason Soto (Cookbook) of the critically acclaimed hip-hop outfit, L.A. Symphony joins the podcast to talk hip-hop, the deconstruction of his former evangelical faith, the ensuing treatment he received from the church, his conviction of authenticity and where he’s at now in his music career. Joey also saw a cat trying to commit suicide and another pastor makes an unnecessary awkward joke to find common ground. Check out Cookbook’s music and hire him to be a coach.

Jay Newman from AudioFeed Festival joins us to chat about the upcoming festivities this summer (June 30-July 3 2016) and the vision of this newer faith and music festival. Jay talks about the origins of the fest and what he thinks makes it special (Hint - running water and air conditioning!). Matt and Toby also promise to play The Question from “front to back” with Devin! Get your asses to BadChristian day on July 3rd! Also, in the news, is that an angel or a porn doll? These are confusing times!

We talk divorce, abortion, open marriages, and Christianity with this blogger and podcaster. Is atheism a cause? How did he become “The Friendly Atheist?” Are there any similarities between making money off atheism and making it from ministry? What are the dangers of religion?

Is it wrong to alter one's natural flow of artistic creation in an attempt to not ruffle feathers? We talk about Emery’s early church touring days and how, according to Toby, the Holy Spirit put a quick halt to playing any more church venues. We talk about Aaron Gillespie using certain words on our podcast and how it cost him some concert dates. He lost money but did he do the right thing? We have some audio troubles and also, Matt runs out of time and has to leave.

Matt and Toby are fresh off their Emery acoustic show in Seattle and Joey is feeling and sounding like a new man back from sabbatical. The three discuss the pointlessness of thank you cards, what gender of massage therapist Joey prefers, a new way of looking at “human resources” and another mega-church pastor biting the dust. Also, they agree that if they live to be 90 or older they will spend their final days partying it up and not worrying about what medications might damage their livers.

We hang out with a listener favorite, author and speaker Peter Enns. He’s written popular books such as "The Bible Tells Me So”, "The Evolution of Adam” and his most recent "The Sin of Certainty.” We talk to him about the future of the church, origins of humanity, whether Adam and Eve were real, the changing meaning of “evangelical" and how people should approach their bible reading.

Joey’s still on sabbatical, so Matt and Toby broadcasted the show LIVE and took some questions from the audience and this is the result!

Church infrastructure is failing pastors. Why are they given the benefit of the doubt when it comes to extra-marital affairs? Was it a misdirected zeal for the sake of the gospel when Tchividjian’s elders tried to keep his affair hidden? Why are narcissists attracted to the Pastoral profession? Also, Joey kicks alligators, Matt has a theory about Stockholm Syndrome in pets and we have a short interview with BC clubber Silas George.

Pastor and author Perry Noble comes on to talk about numbers, transparency, twitter, pastor's salaries, and Mark Driscoll. Also, Toby is filling in as campus pastor for Joey while he’s on sabbatical and accidentally found himself preaching. And Matt uses his dishwasher as the ultimate example of religious superstitious behavior.
