Podcasts about plausibility

June 3, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 145 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing Pittsburgh Steelers finally signing free agent S Darnell Savage to a one-year contract on Tuesday. We also discuss the player waived to make room for Savage on the roster. The Steelers had five players in for tryouts on Tuesday, so Alex and I go over that list players, which is headlined by TE Robert Tonyan and ILB Jamin Davis. The Cleveland Browns traded away DE Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, so Alex and I both chime in on what that deal included and now means for both teams as well as the Steelers. Alex and I then talk a little bit more about the Steelers' decision to sign OLB Nick Herbig to a four-year, $100 million contract extension on Tuesday. We discuss how the onus is now on the Steelers to find a way to get Herbig on the field more in 2026 and even it is part of a three outside linebacker package that also includes T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. With the Herbig extension now completed, Alex and I address the plausibility and probability of the Steelers trading away one of Watt or Highsmith. We discuss the possible highest draft pick compensation for either player as part of any type of trade and if either of us would consider such a deal. The Steelers now seem poised to sign CB Joey Porter Jr. to a contract extension on the heels of Herbig getting done, so Alex and I speculate what a new deal might ultimately look like for him. We also discuss the possibility of Porter receiving fully guaranteed money beyond 2026 should he indeed wind up signing a contract extension this offseason. This 87-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above, and we make sure to answer a few listener emails we have received to close out this show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

May 27, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 141 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing how excited we are to hear from several of the Pittsburgh Steelers' coaches on Wednesday afternoon as part of the team resuming their OTA practices this week. The Steelers re-signed DL Dean Lowry to a one-year contract on Tuesday, so Alex and I address that transaction and what it means for the defensive line depth chart moving forward into the offseason. On the heels of the Steelers restructuring the contract of TE Pat Freiermuth recently, Alex and I go over all the details related to that transaction. We also discuss the team's current salary cap situation as of Tuesday morning and why the team might need to restructure the contract of at least one more veteran player before the 2026 regular season gets underway. The finer details related to the four-year contract extension that K Chris Boswell recently signed have now surfaced, so with that, Alex and I address the known numbers and the impact of that deal on 2026 and future years. Recently, Steelers OG Mason McCormick was tabbed as the team's most underappreciated player by one media outlet, so we discuss if that is an accurate designation as he enters his third NFL season. Alex and I also address the possibility that McCormick could be in line for a very lucrative contract extension next offseason. How will new Steelers HC Mike McCarthy attack training camp this summer when it comes to him listening to the likes and dislikes of the veteran players under contract with the team? We dive into that question during this show. Alex and I end this show by discussing the current statis of college QB Brendan Sorsby and whether he'll ultimately be part of the annual supplemental draft. We talk about the plausibility and probability related to the Steelers possibly being interested in drafting Sorsby should he ultimately be eligible for that draft process.

April 10, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 118 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, which was recorded late Thursday night, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the recent pre-draft visitors that the team hosted. That means that we fully discuss three draft prospects in WR Makai Lemon, S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, and TE Marlin Klein. Alex and I also go over the 16 prospects that are scheduled to attend the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh in two weeks. After going over that list of players, we note a few interesting things concerning a few of those players along with the positions represented. After the pre-draft visitor and draft attendee discussions, Alex and I discuss the recent post I wrote concerning the plausibility of the Steelers trading up in the first round with the Dallas Cowboys. We go over whether the Steelers could, should or would trade ILB Patrick Queen to the Cowboys to move up to 12th overall in the first round to select either OG Olaivavega Ioane or possibly even Lemon. We discuss what might need to happen in the first 11 picks of the 2026 NFL Draft before the Cowboys might consider trading out of the 12th over position and how conversations with the Steelers, and possibly even Queen, would likely need to happen before the first round gets underway. We also discuss why the Steelers might be open to trading Queen and why they also might not be interested in dealing him. Later in the show, Alex discusses his thoughts on the Steelers possibly trading down in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft with the Buffalo Bills. This 99-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end this show by answering several email questions we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Ashleigh tells us about her favourite episode from our back catalogue. In the last of our series going through the missteps identified in The Plausibility Problem by Ed Shaw, we discussed whether suffering can and should be avoided. We shared our own painful experiences and examined why some argue that the suffering of celibate same-sex attracted Christians is a reason to abandon traditional biblical teaching on sexual ethics.We went on to show that suffering is a normal part of following Jesus, whether you're gay or straight, single or married. We looked at some of the reasons why God allows us to suffer and the joys and benefits that we receive precisely because we suffer.We also looked at practical things that help us when we're struggling and ways that we can use our pain to love and serve others.Resources mentioned and relatedThe Plausibility Problem Ed ShawThe Plausibility Problem: A Review Steve WardSupport to Grieve Anne WittonYou Only Live Once.

December 16, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 64 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Tuesday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into our overarching thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 15 Monday night win against the Miami Dolphins. In our weekly housekeeping portion of this show, which is sponsored by the fine folks at TouringPlans.com, Alex and I talk about the Monday night inactive list and the players that missed the contest due to injuries. We also talk about the several transactions that the team made on Monday afternoon. The Steelers sustained a few injuries Monday night, so we discuss those in addition to the outlook of several players looking to return from injuries. We also go over what Steelers HC Mike Tomlin had to say on Tuesday about OLB T.J. Watt, who missed the Monday night contest with a lung issue. Tomlin held his weekly press conference right before we recorded this episode, so Alex and I make sure to recap all of the main talking points that came out of that media session during this show. After going through the newsy items related to Monday, Alex and I look at what all transpired at Acrisure Stadium against the Dolphins. We first talk about the play of the Steelers' offense and how the Number 11 plays a big part in today's show. We discuss the play of QB Aaron Rodgers on Monday night and how T Dylan Cook represented himself well in his first NFL start. Alex and I mix in quite a few stats related to the Monday night game and we discuss how the offense came alive right before the second half ended. We go over several big plays that the offense made on Monday night and we make sure to spend extra time talking about the season that RB Kenneth Gainwell has had to date. After a lengthy discussion about the play of the Steelers' offense, Alex and then do the same with the team's defense. We discuss that unit controlling the Dolphins' rushing attack and how QB Tua Tagovailoa was made to hold the football way too ,long most of the game. We discuss several individual performances on defense, and we mix in snap counts along the way, in addition to several key stats. Finally, Alex and I give some thoughts on special teams play from Monday night. The New York Jets are reportedly waiving WR Allen Lazard on Tuesday, so we discuss the possibility and plausibility of him landing in Pittsburgh due to his association with Rodgers. Will and should the Steelers go with Cook as their starting left tackle moving forward? Alex and I address that question at length during this show. This 92-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we wrap things up by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

October 20, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 39 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into talking about where the Pittsburgh Steelers stand as the team exits their mini bye week. As part of our weekly Monday morning housekeeping portion of the show, which is sponsored by Touringplans.com, Alex and I look at where the Steelers now stand in the AFC North and how the team has four very tough games coming up. We discuss the possibility of the Steelers getting injured WR Calvin Austin III back for the team's Sunday night home game against the Green Bay Packers. There continues to be rumblings about the Steelers trading for a wide receiver at some point in the coming weeks, so Alex and I again address that topic. While it's plausible that the Steelers could wind up trading for a wide receiver before this year's deadline, we are not overly convinced that any such deal will come to fruition. Now that Alex and I have completed our individual looks at the all-22 tape from the Steelers Thursday night loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, we each give extended thoughts on what transpired in that contest. We start off with the positives that we saw from the Steelers offense against the Bengals and then go over the several negatives that transpired on defense. We discuss the quick snap-to-throw time that Bengals QB Joe Flacco had on Thursday night and how the Cincinnati running game gave the Steelers defense fits. Missed tackles played a huge role in the Thursday night loss so we go over that element from the contest. We also discuss once again the limited playing time that Steelers OLB Nick Herbig had in Cincinnati. Alex and I both agree that we will learn quite a bit more about the Steelers defense in the next two weeks as that unit will face quality offenses in the form of the Green Bay Packers and the Indianapolis Colts This 98-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we wrap things up by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Acts 19:8-20 8 And he entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, reasoning and persuading them about the kingdom of God. 9 But when some became stubborn and continued in unbelief, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrannus. 10 This continued for two years, so that all the residents of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks. 11 And God was doing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons that had touched his skin were carried away to the sick, and their diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them. 13 Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists undertook to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul proclaims.” 14 Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this.15 But the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?” 16 And the man in whom was the evil spirit leaped on them, mastered allof them and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. 17 And this became known to all the residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks. And fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was extolled. 18 Also many of those who were now believers came, confessing and divulging their practices. 19 And a number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted the value of them and found it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.20 So the word of the Lord continued to increase and prevail mightily.   Key Words: Extraordinary, Miracles, Evil Spirit, Fear, Confessing, Prevail Keystone Verse: Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?

July 11, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 159 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday episode, Ross McCorkle sits in for Alex Kozora, who is taking some well-deserved time off ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers reporting to Latrobe for the start of their 2025 training camp. Ross and I start this show off by discussing where Steelers DT Cameron Heyward is ranked in the Top 100 Players for 2025. We discuss Heyward's ability to bat down passes and how this year's ranking on the list feels a bit low. We also discuss where Steelers OLB T.J. Watt is likely to land in this year's Top 100 list. We also discuss the probability associated with Watt being traded this summer and how most of the fanbase probably feels about him and his contract situation this offseason. Former Steelers RB Najee Harris, who is now a member of the Los Angeles Chargers, had an unfortunate fireworks accident during the Fourth of July weekend so we make sure to go over that bit of news that surfaced on Thursday. We also discuss the fact that not too much is known concerning the contracts of new CB Jalen Ramsey and TE Jonnu Smith as of Friday morning. Even though Alex is away on this Friday, his latest post about three overlooked players currently on the Steelers roster deserves some attention and review by us. Ross and I go over the three players that Alex listed in that post and then we attempt to build it out by two more players. In the middle of this show, I sort of ambush Ross a little bit with a passing stat prediction exercise for the Steelers' 2025 season. I start with getting Ross' 2025 stat predictions for the top five wide receivers. From there, I get Ross to throw out his 2025 passing stat prediction for Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers. We then subtract the wide receiver stat predictions from his Rodgers' prediction and go over what would presumably be left over for the Steelers tight ends and running backs in 2025. Overall, this exercise produces a little bit of eye-opening and should result in some level of pushback from the listeners. It's a great exercise to conduct at this point of the offseason and I will let Ross revise his numbers for Alex and I to go over during Monday's show. Based on the Friday stat exercise, it certainly seems less than likely that the Steelers will add another notable wide receiver to their roster this offseason. Near the end of this Friday show, Ross and I discuss the plausibility and probability related to the Steelers possible signing veteran free agent safety Justin Simmons this offseason. That discussion is a result of a few things that Simmons said about his future during a recent interview from this past week. This 105-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap. We also end this episode by answering one outstanding email questions we have received this past week from listeners of the show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

**A Reality B Conversation**The mysteries of existence no longer need to be hidden behind locked doors—because most people willingly look away. In a culture addicted to consensus and comfort, we censor ourselves before anyone else has to. Plausibility replaces truth. Inquiry becomes taboo.This isn't oppression from above.It's abdication from within.Let's talk about it :)

Jacob discusses faith in the Biblical narratives of the more implausible accounts like the resurrection, Balam's donkey, Noah's ark, and the assumption and return of Elijah, for example.*Listener discretion advised. In the first few minutes, Jacob briefly discusses the plausibility of the resurrection of Jesus in regards to his missing corpse.This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on July 13, 2024 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels.

June 9, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 145 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the one-year contract that new Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers reportedly signed on Saturday. We go over what is known so far concerning the Rodgers' contract and what still needs to be learned when it comes to the incentives. We also discuss the difference between NLTBE and LTBE when it comes to the incentives. Alex and I discuss some of Rodgers' 2024 tape with the New York Jets and whether it looks like he can be successful in Pittsburgh and how. The Green Bay Packers are reportedly releasing CB Jaire Alexander on Monday and that has fans of the Steelers thinking the team should sign him. We go over what Alexander will likely be looking for when it comes to a new contract, if he fits with the Steelers, and the likelihood of Pittsburgh ultimately signing him. Free agent WR Gabe Davis reportedly will visit the New Orleans Saints soon, so Alex and I discuss that bit of news as well. It also looks like free agent RB Nick Chubb will be signing soon with the Houston Texans, so we cover that news. Was Rodgers really the Steelers' third quarterback option this offseason behind Justin Fields and Matthew Stafford? We discuss that report from ESPN's Adam Schefter over the weekend. Is it possible that the Steelers would pull the plug on Rodgers ahead of the 2025 trade deadline if things aren't going well in Pittsburgh? Alex and I discuss that topic and if Rodgers could ultimately be traded ahead of the deadline. This 90-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap.

A popular objection to Christianity is that there are hypocrites in the church. What is involved in this objection to Christianity? Is it a good one? I argue that, contrary to what many perceive, the moral presuppositions of this objection are consistent with Christianity.

This conversation grows out of a podcast series that Phill produced late last year called "How the church was sabotaged", in which he reflected upon a 1980s book by the famous Christian thinker and writer Os Guinness. Though published over 40 years ago, Guinness's "The Gravedigger File: Papers on the Subversion of the Modern Church" caught Phill's attention because of its apparent prescience on a number of important cultural issues facing the church today. So, please join us as I "get in on the conversation", and we discuss what's happened to so many modern churches, and think about ways in which we might "push back" in the culture to reveal the Gospel's "plausibility structure" to church and world alike.

Jesus identifies two fundamental assumptions you have to hold in order to experience him and his resurrection.

Taylor is a fine gentleman & one of the follow Jesus' example Christians I have met in a chat room (as opposed to one of the "you are going to Hell" Christians) and we decided to "take it to the runway" We sat down to discuss the plausibility of modern sectarian Christianity vs Latter Day Saint Christianity. I think the plausibility argument is severely underrated. We discussed: -The recipe for identifying a prophet of God and if Joseph Smith was a conman. -If Christianity went woke long before the culture did? -If the simplicity of mere Christianity favors its truthfulness -Plausibility measured with stats and receipts = peak Christianity & -We didn't really get to whether or not the mysteries of God have all been revealed so we may have to do a round II. Look forward to your comments and insights. Thank you  @thoughtfultheology449 ​

Professor Amar Bhidé of Columbia University discusses his new book “Uncertainty and Enterprise”, published by Oxford University Press. It emphasizes the limitations of standard economic models that rely on probability distributions. He argues that entrepreneurship involves dealing with unique, non-quantifiable uncertainties, which require imagination and narrative skills. Bhide critiques the over-reliance on incentives and statistical analysis, advocating for a more imaginative and contextual approach. He highlights the importance of routines and the need for accountability in expert decision-making, particularly in areas like public health and monetary policy. Bhide also discusses the role of narratives in business success and the challenges posed by tech monopolies.If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions for Gene, please email him at contact@economicsexplored.com.About this episode's guest Professor Amar BhidéProfessor of Health Policy and Management at Columbia University Irving Medical CenterBhidé has researched and taught about innovation, entrepreneurship, and finance for over three decades.

SummaryIn this episode, Brian and Chad interview Travis Dickinson about the argument from reason. They discuss the different options for explaining the existence of logical principles, focusing on naturalism and Platonism. Travis argues that if God does not exist, logical principles either do not exist or exist as brute abstract objects. He explains that naturalism, which denies the existence of anything outside the natural world, cannot account for the existence of logical principles. Platonism, on the other hand, posits the existence of abstract objects in a separate realm, but this explanation is ad hoc and lacks independent reasons. Travis concludes that the most plausible explanation for logical principles is the existence of God. In this part of the conversation, Brian and Travis discuss the argument from reason and its connection to the existence of God. They explore the idea that our ability to reason and use logic points to the existence of a higher mind, which they identify as God. They also discuss how the argument from reason can be used in practical apologetics to engage with skeptics and point them towards Christ.TakeawaysThe argument from reason posits that if God does not exist, logical principles either do not exist or exist as brute abstract objects.Naturalism, which denies the existence of anything outside the natural world, cannot account for the existence of logical principles.Platonism, which posits the existence of abstract objects in a separate realm, is an ad hoc explanation without independent reasons.The most plausible explanation for logical principles is the existence of God.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. It is day 218 of the war with Hamas. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman and legal reporter Jeremy Sharon join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Berman discusses the expansion of the targeted, moderate operation in Rafah, the US reactions to the operation so far and what that means for US-Israel relations. He also updates what's happening with talks for a hostage deal and ceasefire, as well as the release of a Hamas propaganda videos of hostage Nadav Popplewell, which Berman believes is meant to put pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Sharon looks at an interview with the recent past president of the International Court of Justice, and her comments about the 'plausibility' term with regard to the court case about whether Israel was committing genocide in Gaza. For the latest updates, please see The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: US: Ongoing IDF op in Rafah doesn't amount to major offensive we've warned against ‘Plausibility' in the South African genocide case against Israel is not what it seemed THOSE WE HAVE LOST: Civilians and soldiers killed in Hamas's onslaught on Israel THOSE WE ARE MISSING: The hostages and victims whose fate is still unknown Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In this episode, Bob Motta discusses the ongoing trial of Karen Read, highlighting potential issues of impropriety and conflict of interest involving state police detective Michael Proctor. Motta points out that Proctor, who has close ties with the Albert family involved in the case, might have shown bias in his investigation. The defense suggests that evidence like taillight fragments were conveniently found only after significant delay and Proctor's involvement, raising suspicions of evidence manipulation. The conversation also delves into the complexities of coordinating a conspiracy, arguing that it's highly unlikely for a large group to maintain a consistent false narrative, especially under scrutiny. The focus shifts to discussing the possibility of accidental involvement by Karen Read, considering her mental state and hysterical reactions at the scene. Main Points: Potential Conflict of Interest: Detective Michael Proctor's close connections with the Albert family may have influenced the investigation's direction and integrity. Evidence Handling: Issues were raised about the timing and discovery of taillight fragments, suggesting possible manipulation or planting of evidence after Proctor seized Cameron Reid's car. Plausibility of Conspiracy: The discussion raises doubts about the feasibility of a widespread conspiracy involving numerous people, highlighting the improbability of such coordination and secrecy. Accidental Involvement: Karen Read's state of intoxication and her reactions suggest she might not have been aware of her actions, complicating the narrative of intentional harm. Interpretation of Actions and Statements: The conversation questions how much weight should be given to Read's distraught and confused statements at the scene, considering her mental state. Digital Evidence: The significance of a Google search about dying in the snow is debated, with suggestions that it could have been out of concern rather than evidence of guilt. #Hashtags: #HiddenKillersWithTonyBrueski #BobMotta #KarenRead #MichaelProctor #TrueCrime #EvidenceManipulation #ConflictOfInterest Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Carrie is also a co-editor at the illustrious arts theory journal October. Her current research is on 30 years of fiction presented as fact in contemporary art, asking what happens when artworks deceive their audiences? What do the experiences of artists' trickery teach about contemporary ways of knowing?

March 4, 2024 - Season 14, Episode 96 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday show, which was recorded late Sunday night, Alex Kozora and I jump right into talking about the recent passings of former Pittsburgh Steelers LB Andy Russell and longtime ESPN reporter Chris Mortensen. We discuss how Russell hasn't even made it to be a Hall of Fame semifinalist upon his passing. On Sunday, there was a report concerning Steelers WR Diontae Johnson and the team being open to trading him for the right compensation. Alex and I dig into that report and explore both sides of the possibility that Johnson could be traded and what such a deal would need to look like and when it would likely need to happen. There's been even more speculation about the Steelers possibly trading for Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields, so Alex and I dig even more into that topic. We focus a lot on what all Adam Schefter of ESPN said recently about Fields being traded and the teams likely involved in pursuing him. We make sure to look at the plausibility factor regarding the Steelers possibly trading for Fields from all angles during this show. The 2024 NFL Scouting Combine wrapped up over the weekend and with that, Alex and I go over our main thoughts from that annual event when it comes to several of the position groups. We talk about several different players the Steelers are likely to be interested in drafting and much more. Several other minor topics not noted are also discussed in this 115-minute episode and we end it by answering several questions that we received from listeners of the show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

July 4, 2023 - Season 13, Episode 149 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I start things off by talking about the Fourth of July and specifically, hot dog consumption. We move on to talk about the Pittsburgh Steelers and specifically, rookie tackle Broderick Jones and his chances of opening Week 1 of the 2023 regular season as a starter. As part of this discussion, Alex and I recap the history of the Steelers when it comes to rookie offensive linemen starting Week 1. Who are some underrated Steelers in the history of the franchise? Alex and I go down that rabbit hole of a topic for a little bit. Will the Steelers sign inside linebacker Reuben Foster now that his USFL season with the Pittsburgh Maulers has concluded? We discuss that question and topic a little bit in the middle of this show. We then move forward to discuss more posts in my ongoing 90-In-30 Training Camp series. We have several Steelers players to discuss in this show related to that series, and they are Duke Dawson, Kevin Dotson, William Dunkle, Breiden Fehoko, Dez Fitzpatrick, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Pat Freiermuth, Zach Gentry, Markus Golden, Alfonzo Graham, Kendrick Green, and Darius Hagans We hit a few listener emails late in this show as well.

Was Paul silent on the affairs and injustices of the Roman Empire? Or have his letters just been misread? In The Apostle and the Empire: Paul's Implicit and Explicit Criticism of Rome (Eerdmans, 2023), Christoph Heilig returns to the active research scene on Paul's perspective toward Roman imperial ideology with a fresh contribution arguing that the Apostle's critiques were not encoded or hidden within the subtext of his letters, but rather expressed openly when Paul saw reason to air his unease or discontent with emperors and governing logics of the Roman state. Heilig contends that scholars have previously overlooked passages that openly denounce the empire—for instance, the “triumphal procession” in 2 Corinthians 2:14, which he discusses in detail by drawing on a variety of historical, literary, and archaeological data. His capable discourse with a range of other scholars suggests that the search for Paul's perspective on Rome may be trending beyond the reliance on coded critiques within the “hidden transcript,” which has largely allowed scholars to map their own assumptions or interpretive proclivities onto the Pauline epistles, into reevaluations of both offhand words and phrases from his letters and famous, but ambiguous, passages like Romans 13. Heilig joined the New Books Network to discuss the Apostle Paul, his range of interactions with the Roman empire, and the recent history of scholarly discourse on this subject. Christoph Heilig (Ph.D., University of Zurich, 2018) is currently a postdoc at the University of Basel. This fall, he will lead an international junior research group at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, which will focus on narrative perspective in early Christian stories, and his own work on narratology in the letters of Paul has received the Manfred Lautenschlaeger Award for Theological Promise in 2022. Christoph's various research interests include the role of probability theory in biblical interpretation, the digital humanities, the potential of large language models such as ChatGPT for biblical exegesis, and much more. He has previously published two monographs dealing with the issue of Empire in Paul's letters, Hidden Transcripts?: Methodology and Plausibility of the Search for a Counter-Imperial Subtext in Paul (Mohr Siebeck, 2015; Fortress Press, 2017) and Paul's Triumph: Reassessing 2 Corinthians 2:14 in Its Literary and Historical Context (Peeters, 2017). Rob Heaton (Ph.D., University of Denver, 2019) hosts Biblical Studies conversations for New Books in Religion and teaches New Testament, Christian origins, and early Christianity at Anderson University in Indiana. He recently authored The Shepherd of Hermas as Scriptura Non Grata: From Popularity in Early Christianity to Exclusion from the New Testament Canon (Lexington Books, 2023).

June 9, 2023 - Season 13, Episode 141 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the plausibility of the Pittsburgh Steelers landing edge rusher Chase Young or running back Dalvin Cook this offseason after we first discuss the recent alien signings in Las Vegas. We turn our attention to Steelers running back Najee Harris and what a successful 2023 season would look like for him. We also discuss Steelers second-year tight end/fullback Connor Heyward and what the expectations should be for him in 2023. With the Steelers OTAs now wrapped up for 2023, Alex and I go over some key takeaways from the last three weeks of practices. We also discuss the few younger running backs vying for the third spot on the depth chart this summer. The Steelers have now announced the dates of their 2023 training camp, so Alex and I make sure to pass those along. Alex recently wrote a post about Steelers center Kendrick Green, so we discuss his thoughts on the former third round draft pick in the middle of this show. Later in the show, we discuss Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III and his potential to add some explosive plays on offense in 2023. What should the statistical outlook be for Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett in 2023? We attempt to answer that question late in this show as well. Later in the show, Alex and I answer a few questions we have received from listeners over the last several days.

In this episode of Off Stage with Greg and RD, the hosts delve into the concept of plausibility structures and their significance in the context of Christianity and contemporary culture. Through their unique blend of humor and wisdom, Greg and RD explore how plausibility structures shape our beliefs and worldviews, and how they can be used to engage others in meaningful conversations about faith and spirituality. RD references C.S. Lewis's book Miracles. And then Greg references Mere Christianity. Basically, there's a lot of Lewis in this conversation and you should read his books. A plausibility structure is a a mental apparatus that operates as a filter for your beliefs. It's been compared to the term “worldview.”Greg references Walden by Henry David ThoreauFor more information on this podcast, visit podcast.fellowshipknox.org  You can also e-mail questions or topic ideas to offstage@fellowshipknox.org

Defenders: Doctrine of God: Trinity (Part 11): A Plausibility Argument for the Trinity

Dr. Harvey Risch of Yale University discusses science versus plausibility with RFK Jr in this episode. Science starts with theories, hypotheses, that have examinable empiric ramifications. Nevertheless, those theories are not science; they motivate science. Science occurs when individuals do experiments or make observations that bear upon the implications or ramifications of the theories. Those findings tend to support or refute the theories, which are then modified or updated to adjust to the new observations or discarded if compelling evidence shows that they fail to describe nature. The cycle is then repeated. Science is the performance of empirical or observational work to obtain evidence confirming or refuting theories.
