In 1974, a suburban housewife named Pat Tiehel (aka PT), submitted an essay to a women's magazine about being angry at a system that gave her education and aspirations, then kept her pinned up at home. The magazine rejected it. One year later, everything changed. This is the essay PT's daughters found tucked away in their mom's papers after she died—a document of wanting more...and what happened next.

In this episode I wrestle with one of the most common questions I hear: “What should we do now?” We reflect on: David French's practical, wise answer to that question (via Russell Moore's podcast), my own struggle with giving application instead of just description, the reality that justice work is long-term, slow, and deeply human, why grace, humor, and conviction still matter in dark times, and how each of us can choose to live out our deepest values, even when “winning” feels out of reach.

Essstörung, Binge Eating und Body Positivity: Ein Kreislauf aus Scham, Kontrolle und Rückfällen. Zwischen gesellschaftlichen Körpernormen, inneren Dämonen und der Hoffnung auf Heilung entfaltet sich der Kampf um Identität und Selbstbestimmung.

In this week's episode, Detlef takes us deep into the mythological and emotional landscape behind The Nile's Bittersweet Song — WAW's recent Number One on The Cork Playlist.What begins with a single removed image in the video edit grows into a full exploration of creativity, fatalism, and the elemental spirit of Hapi, the ancient Nile god.Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, Detlef navigates the tension between myth and memory, grief and rhythm, and the fine art of letting a story reveal its true form.Through Kamau, the fictional boy standing at the river that took his brother, the episode weaves subtle socio-cultural currents into a timeless narrative.The episode ends with gratitude, a behind-the-scenes invitation into Detlef's process, and a brand-new track by Los Inorgánicos.A reflective, intimate journey between art, myth, and the river that never speaks — but always moves.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" runs along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

Seit 50 Jahren setzt die Bücher-Bestenliste den rein an Verkaufszahlen orientierten „Bestsellerlisten“ die Empfehlungen einer Jury aus Literaturkritikern entgegen. Lange Zeit hatte sie ihren Platz im Fernsehen, heute im Hörangebot des SWR. Was will die Literaturkritik in audiovisuellen Medien? Julia Schröder ist seit 30 Jahren Mitglied dieser Jury. Seither hat sich vor allem durch das Internet das mediale Umfeld der Literaturkritik radikal verändert. Braucht man sie überhaupt noch? Und was will die Literaturkritik überhaupt in audiovisuellen Medien? Essay von Julia Schröder Regie: Iris Drögekamp Produktion SWR 2025

After a week away, I return to reflect on what may be remembered as the most revealing week of Donald Trump's second term — a week where he pardoned allies, mocked peaceful protesters with AI war porn, escalated military violence without congressional approval, and demolished the East Wing of the White House to build a gilded ballroom. In this episode, I argue that Trump has fully embraced his most dangerous instincts — no longer pretending to serve the nation, but ruling with the boldness of a king gone mad. From authoritarian theater to reality distortion, we're witnessing the unraveling in real time. This is the week Trump chose his legacy. And the rest of us must now choose ours. (October 25, 2025)

I reflect on one of the most foundational scriptures shaping my call to speak out — as a Christian and former pastor — against Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.

Wake the Dead has lots of shows to post. I have started a new job and life was kind of disorganized for a while. With side-projects, new job orientation, and my calendar all over the place, podcast duties were pushed to the back burner (if these podcasts gave me a regular paycheck, then Wake the Dead would surely be on the top of the list). Today is actually an unexpected day off and hopefully you will see 9 new episodes published. I haven't stopped recording...just slow on the editing and posting. So that will be remedied today.Today I am reading a short essay written by actor/director Crispin Hellion Glover. It is composed of a list of very thought provoking questions.

Every time I speak out about Donald Trump, someone asks: “Well, who SHOULD Christians have voted for?” This is my comprehensive answer. As a former Republican and evangelical pastor, I've been raising the alarm for years about the spiritual cost of aligning the church with Trump's MAGA movement. Today, I walk through five possible voting choices Christians had in 2024 — and why Never Trump isn't just a slogan, it's a moral imperative.

In this urgent breakdown, I play key excerpts from Stephen Miller's speech at the Charlie Kirk memorial and explain why it may be the most dangerous political speech since the 2024 election. (October 14, 2025)

In this episode, we dig into a chilling speech from right-wing influencer Benny Johnson at the recent Charlie Kirk rally—a moment that reveals just how deeply Christian nationalism can distort Scripture to serve political power. (October 8, 2025)

In this episode, we take a hard look at a recent memorial rally clip featuring Rob McCoy — a prominent evangelical pastor and mentor to Turning Point USA's Charlie Kirk. What begins as a “basic gospel message” quickly becomes something else: a masterclass in religious manipulation, where Jesus is reduced to a mascot for right-wing politics. (October 6, 2025)

It's my 60th birthday, and I'm taking a break from the headlines—sort of. Today's video is about something more basic… and a little more obnoxious. I'm breaking down the toxic absurdity of MAGA theology, why you can trust your gut when it smells like garbage, and why “debating” Christian nationalism on its own terms is often a waste of spiritual energy.

The Charlie Kirk memorial wasn't just a tribute—it was a political rally wrapped in worship music. And it revealed everything about the religious right's current direction—and the dangerous future MAGA leaders are planning. I break down what made the event so spiritually and politically troubling. (September 30, 2025)

I reflect on my own past as a soft Christian nationalist — and why Charlie Kirk's memorial service hit me so hard. (September 26, 2025)

I break down a chilling moment from Charlie Kirk's recent memorial service — where Donald Trump explicitly rejects the words of Jesus in front of a cheering, supposedly Christian audience. I wasn't planning to cover this, but what I saw horrified me. This wasn't a memorial. It was a Christian nationalist rally thinly veiled in religious language. (September 23, 2025)

The internet, left and right leaning, has been set ablaze by a ragebait headline and a deep dive into our dating practices or rather, our online posting of our burgeoning and established relationships. The British Vogue article, titled 'Is It Embarrassing To Have A Boyfriend' feels like harkening back to an earlier time on the internet, when one op-ed could get everyone talking about one topic and in this week's episode, hosts Ione and Gina take their lens to the comms on courtship.Do we want our favourite influencers to remain perpetually single? Are we once bitten, twice shy about men after the scary stories we hear about dating online? And is any of this influenced by the rise of nuclear family and trad wife rhetoric shared repeatedly by the alt right?Support our work and become a Polyester Podcast member

If you call yourself a Christian and still support Donald Trump—or the Republicans helping him cover this up—this is your wake-up call. I speak directly to Christians who still support Trump. You're out of excuses. The lines are clear now. And if the visible church doesn't speak up, America will keep believing what they already suspect: that authoritarian abuse isn't a bug of Christian nationalism—it's the feature. (September 3, 2025)

I unpack another argument I hear from well-intentioned Christians—"God chose Trump for a purpose, so opposing him means opposing God." This isn't about politics. It's about the misuse of theological language that enables silence, compromises integrity, and dismisses justice. (August 19, 2025)

What does Romans 13 really say about obeying political leaders—and why are so many American Christians using it to defend authoritarianism? Former evangelical pastor Pat Kahnke breaks down the history, theology, and misuse of passages like Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2—passages used to justify everything from slavery to fascism. This is part of a YouTube series exposing how scripture has been weaponized to support corrupt power, particularly in the age of Donald Trump and Christian nationalism. It's time for Christians to grow up, read responsibly, and speak out against injustice.

I tackle a question I hear often: *“If it weren't for Donald Trump, would you still be open to the rest of what the GOP/MAGA movement stands for?”* I used to think *yes*. But after 2016, the marriage between the religious right and MAGA woke me up—especially when I saw even “Christian” leaders abandon their convictions overnight.

Wie gestalten wir unser Zusammenleben? Bei solchen Fragen geht es meist um Gleichheit oder Gerechtigkeit. Warum aber nicht darum, die Gesellschaft schöner zu machen?

After saying farewell to Vladi Nowakowski in last week's episode, Detlef Schlich stays in the 1980s — walking again through the creative streets of Cologne-Nippes, where art, chaos, and hope lived side by side.He recalls the Schuhfabrik on Merheimerstraße 202, once an industrial space turned into studios and lofts by an architects' consortium including Wolfgang Felder, where a whole artistic microcosm emerged around the Fabrik-Café.It was there, amid the smell of coffee, sawdust, and rain, that Detlef performed his song “Wir stehen im Regen” for the first time — a song born from loss, solitude, and the rhythm of survival.Later produced by Dieter Kirchenbauer, the song became part of his journey from broken beginnings to creative rebirth.This episode is a portrait of Nippes as more than a place — a rehearsal for everything that came after.“Everyone in Nippes lived inside a rehearsal — we just didn't know what for.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" runs along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

This week voters across the country showed up and pushed back against Trump's MAGA movement in a big way. And while I don't do political hype, I saw real signs that MAGA is scared—and with good reason. (November 5, 2025)

I confront the Trump administration's newly proposed 2026 refugee policy, which slashes the U.S. refugee cap to an all-time low--and openly prioritizes white South African immigrants. It's a near "white's-only" refugee policy, and it's not just political...it's spiritually bankrupt. This isn't about border security. It's about  white nationalism dressed up as patriotism, and too many white evangelicals are defending it in Jesus' name. As a pastor, I call that what it is: anti-Christian and anti-American.

A huge number of white conservative Christians in America aren't misled -- they're committed.  Committed to a dangerous, unbiblical view of authority. Today, I break down a deeply revealing 2024 survey from PRRI that shows how authoritarian beliefs -- not just abortion or party loyalty -- are driving Christian support for Donald Trump.

Wrestling with Shakespeare, Faith, and the Limits of Technology   Host Curtis Chang and Dr. Jessica Hooten Wilson—Fletcher Jones Chair of Great Books at Pepperdine University—explore The Tempest by William Shakespeare and its timeless wisdom for our technology-driven world. Through Prospero's struggle with power, control, and love, they draw parallels between Shakespeare's "magic" and our modern dependence on digital tools. Wilson explains how the play invites us to surrender our illusions of control, embrace humility, and rediscover relationships grounded in grace. Curtis and Jessica's discussion touches on C.S.

Umsätze gehen zurück, Galerien schließen. Der Kunstmarkt verändert sich radikal. Und die Kunst sowieso. Das Zeitalter, in dem Kunst sich autonom erklärte, scheint vorbei zu sein, wenn Kunst sich etwa moralischen oder politischen Fragestellungen zuwendet. Von Hilka Dirks www.deutschlandfunk.de, Essay und Diskurs

"Human philosophy was beaten from its usurped province, but not by any counter-philosophy; and unlearned Faith, establishing itself by its own inherent strength, ruled the Reason as far as its own interests were concerned, and from that time has employed it in the Church, first as a captive, then as a servant; not as an equal, and in nowise (far from it) as a patron." St. John Henry Newman's Oxford Sermons, delivered during his time as an Anglican preacher at the University of Oxford, were instrumental in shaping the Oxford Movement, which sought to revive High Church traditions within the Church of England and ultimately led to many conversions to Catholicism. In addition to the profound influence these sermons had on both Anglican and Catholic theology, they also bore a personal significance for Newman's own conversion to Catholicism years later. These fifteen sermons, though deeply interconnected in theme and insight, are not sequential in nature; rather, each stands on its own as a distinct and self-contained reflection on faith and reason. Newman lays the groundwork for themes developed in later works, such as Grammar of Assent and Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine. In this fourth sermon, Newman demonstrates how Reason oversteps its bounds when it sets itself up as the legitimate judge of religious truth, over and against childlike spiritual discernment.
