This week on the podcast we're talking Allegory and inspiration. If you want to write a good Allegory, you first need to be able to understand what one is. On today's episode we'll train you to spot Allegory, even if it seems like a bit of a stretch! In this thought-provoking episode of The Christian Indie Writers' Podcast, we dive into the unexpected intersection of pop culture and Christian storytelling.

Some inherit wealth. Some inherit trauma. She inherited the shadows. From childhood, she felt eyes drilling into the back of her skull, an unseen predator stalking her every move. Her father called it hunting. At six years old, he trained her to move in silence, to read the difference between natural sounds in the woods and something imitating them. But what he was really preparing her for wasn't deer—it was demons. The family home in Buffalo became the crucible. Her best friend was a ghost girl named Mary. But Mary wasn't alone. Toys floated around her bed. Bricks hurled themselves across basements. Something darker stalked the house. Then, without explanation, the home was condemned and wiped from maps—as though the earth itself swallowed it. Her father died in 2003, labeled a suicide. She doesn't believe it. The night before, he spoke in riddles, leaving her a final puzzle. Six years later, she solved it: he didn't take his life. Something else took it. Now in her twenties, she keeps three knives and a katana by her bed. She dreams of endless eyes watching, migraines splitting her skull like messages from the other side. Her family line is cursed with visions—her great-grandmother predicted deaths to the exact day, her cousin dreamed of her but never dared reveal why. This isn't just a haunting. It's an inheritance. And she believes one day she'll finish her father's work—hunting what has hunted her bloodline for generations. #TrueGhostStory #DemonHunter #RealHaunting #ParanormalStory #HauntedHouse #DarkInheritance #SupernaturalEncounters #TheGraveTalks #GhostStoriesOnline #UnexplainedPhenomena #GenerationalCurse #ShadowEntity Love real ghost stories?

In this episode of Casual Chats, Patricia and Arun discuss about the 2025 Sony Pictures Animation/Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters. In South Korea, there's a K-pop group called Huntr/x consisting of Rumi, Mira, and Zoey who is the biggest band in the world with millions of fans coming to their concerts and posting their love and appreciation for them on social media. What they don't know is that they're demon hunters who fight evil demons to prevent them from absorbing human life. When Gwi-Ma, the main leader of the demons, is trying to find a way to get a large amount of souls absorbed, one of the demons named Jinu proposes that he and several other demons disguise themselves as a K-pop group named The Saja Boys. Mira and Zoey wish to take them down, but Rumi gets to know Jinu and has a slight change of how she feels about demons, especially since she's half demon herself.When the film premiered on Netflix, it became critically acclaimed by critics and viewers praising the animation, characters, and soundtrack. It's currently the most viewed movie on Netflix and the songs have reached on both #1 on the Billboard and Spotify charts. What did Arun and Patricia think of the film?
Ryan Duns is back on the podcast to talk about his provocative new book exploring horror and theology, and boy does he deliver some counterintuitive insights. He argues that horror is actually the most conservative film genre—and that's precisely why it works so well for theological reflection. Think about it: to be scared, you first have to believe there's something worth protecting. Ryan walks us through how horror films function as underground spaces where transcendence has been displaced and distorted, creating what he calls "frag events" that shatter our comfortable assumptions about reality. From The Purge and mimetic desire to The Black Phone and eucatastrophe, he shows how these films operate as photographic negatives of divine transcendence, revealing both our metaphysical vulnerability and our deep hunger for meaning. We dive into concepts like the "dark transcendent," the porosity of being, and why feeling horror is actually a sign of soul. Plus, Ryan shares stories from his Theology of Horror class—including angry parent emails and a student who ended up joining the Jesuits. If you've ever wondered what a philosophical theologian is doing teaching about chainsaw massacres and demonic possession, this conversation will blow your mind while making you rethink everything about faith, fear, and what it means to be human. Check out the book, Theology of Horror: The Hidden Depths of Popular Films. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Ryan G. Duns, SJ, (twitter) is a Jesuit priest and an assistant professor of theology at Marquette University. His locates his work the intersection of philosophy and systematic theology and is interested in regarding theology as practice or “way of life.” He has published on Karl Rahner, Jean-Luc Marion, René Girard, and his most recent work has involved a sustained engagement with William Desmond's metaphysics. His monograph “Spiritual Exercises for a Secular Age: Desmond and the Quest for God” argues that, when read as a form of spiritual exercise (Pierre Hadot), Desmond's philosophy can re-awaken a sense of the Transcendent.

Reposted from Still Slaying: A Buffy-verse podcast which you can find at Still Slaying: a Buffy-verse podcast | Podcastica. Fun, in-depth talk about great TV. “That's the funny thing about hope. Nobody else gets to decide if you feel it. That choice belongs to you.” Penny, Kara and Karen celebrate all things HUNTR/X, talking through the three main characters, the allure of the Saja Boys, the powerful draw of the music, the fun choreography, finding community through shared fandom, inspiring creativity in fans, the deeper meanings hidden behind the bright colors and banging tunes and the power of love in original content. The discussion touches on neurodivergence, generational trauma, the value of a layered film that families can watch and enjoy together (co-viewing), cultural appropriation, K-pop and K-pop culture, Motown and factory music systems, soft power, K-Dramas, voice acting, gender in fandoms, bad boy appeal, shame, toxic fandom, and the intersection of art and commerce. Next time we'll be talking about Buffy, Season 4, Episode 14, “Goodbye, Iowa.” Keep Slaying!

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Sometimes it only takes one moment — one spark — to change the course of an entire life. For Michael Salerno, that moment came late one night while watching a popular paranormal television show. What began as simple curiosity soon became an obsession, and then a mission: to dedicate his life to helping those oppressed by the demonic. In this gripping episode, we dive into Michael Salerno's true story — a journey that led him deep into the study of demonology and face-to-face with some of the darkest forces imaginable. His pursuit of knowledge opened unexpected doors, including a close and personal friendship with Lorraine Warren, the world-renowned investigator who, alongside her husband Ed, inspired The Conjuring films. Under Lorraine's mentorship, Michael sharpened his understanding of the spiritual battle between good and evil and learned the delicate and dangerous work of aiding the afflicted. But this wasn't just theory. Michael didn't stay in the classroom or behind the books. He dove headfirst into real-life cases of demonic oppression, families tormented by forces beyond comprehension, homes plagued by violent hauntings, and individuals left scarred by the shadows that stalked them. Each case tested him — body, mind, and soul. Each case revealed more about the chilling reality of the demonic world that lurks just out of sight. If you've ever wondered what drives someone to confront evil head-on, this is the story you cannot miss. #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #Demonology #MichaelSalerno #LorraineWarren #ParanormalActivity #Haunted #Exorcism #DemonicOppression #GhostStories #Supernatural #RealParanormal Love real ghost stories?

A Gaslit Nation listener once asked me: What's the canary in the coal mine for American democracy? My answer: when they come for the comedians. Because when authoritarians kill the jokes, they kill the dissent. Look at Russia. In Putin's early years, Kukly, a wildly popular political satire by smack-talking puppets, mocked him mercilessly. One of his first moves? Force media consolidation. Suddenly, the show vanished. Fast forward 25 years to today, you can't hold an anti-war sign in Moscow without being arrested. As The New York Times reported back in 2000: “‘Kukly' is political satire. But that is like calling an ermine a rodent. By turns vicious, obscene, hilarious and knowing, it has long been the most popular television show in Russia. At 10 p.m. on any given Sunday, more than half the nation's sets are riveted on the program.” [Emphasis mine]. Now it's happening here. Trump and the far-right are consolidating media ownership, especially local stations, while evangelicals push their “Seven Mountains Mandate” to seize control of religion, family, government, business, education, arts, and, of course, media. Trump is their “God's imperfect vessel"–like many strongmen featured in the Old Testament, bulldozing what's left of democracy in a white-rage backlash to the Civil Rights movement. Formerly “woke” Disney CEO Bob Iger, who previously denounced Trump's Muslim ban and Florida's anti-gay laws, is now in the crosshairs, pressured by Nexstar and Sinclair, Republican-aligned networks with monopoly-level reach. But Disney did this to itself, and the country, by giving a convicted felon a $15 million “charitable contribution” to his “presidential library” to settle a defamation suit. That surrender paved the way for the widespread mainstream media capitulation helping Trump consolidate power. Jimmy Kimmel has now been silenced for saying what Gaslit Nation also pointed out: Charlie Kirk's killer came from the same white, male, MAGA gun culture that empowered Trump. That truth cost Kimmel his platform, so far, but thanks to you, our listeners, we can keep saying it. So who rescues us as Trump tries to turn America into Russia? Enter KPop Demon Hunters. Netflix's massive hit–its most watched film–is a reminder that the free market still caters to the people. America's greatest export isn't oil or weapons. It's culture, humor, art. Our comedians are resistance fighters with punchlines. Which means one of the best ways to fight fascism is simple: dictators hate truth and humor. Every single one of us pointing out the truth, and having a damn good time while doing it, will break the fever of this dystopian feverdream. Because pay attention to Kimmel's monologue that got him pulled from air: he goes into length on Trump's Epstein cover-up. Listen here for yourself or in the end of this week's bonus show. Like Gaslit Nation warned, Charlie Kirk's murder is being used as part of the larger Epstein cover-up.
