I ramble and read a couple of emails. Enjoy!

We continue with our series Ask Me About My Feminist Agenda and are delighted to have The Rev. Wil Gafney back on the podcast. Her unique approach to The Bible in regards to Race, Gender, and Culture have been a blessing in my own "faith journey." We discuss her ideas on Feminism, Race and Politics as well as her book Womanist Midrash: A Reintroduction to the Women of the Torah and the Throne.

This episode Sarah Jane (@fookthis) takes a break from her Girl Gang's #PJPajamaPartyMassacre and joins us to discuss a handful of Vinegar Syndrome releases including DOUBLE EXPOSURE, SWEET SUGAR, RED MOB, MALIBU HIGH, THE HEARSE & more! Josh Obershaw also returns with the news and we also make some time for The Back Room.

After a couple failed attempts to record a full episode in-between vacations...Sean, Brad & BJ found a little time to explain ourselves! We also jump into a What's On Your Doorstep segment and discuss films like Life, The Blackcoat's Daughter (and more) as well as the new Netflix se

I discuss some materials that helped me through my "deconstruction" process in my faith and gave me a hopeful outlook on the future.

We begin a new series called Ask Me About My Feminist Agenda this week! Lauren R. E. Larkin and Sarah Taras from the Ezer Uncaged podcast help me kick off the conversation. This episode we discuss Feminism from a Progressive Christian perspective focusing on gender roles, sexuality and their place in "The Church".

Shunning Jehovah's Witnesses via a doorbell, The Bible Answer Man embraces Eastern Orthodoxy & the terrifying fact that I'm a dad with older kids...

When I had the idea for this series "Processing Belief Through Music," I wrote out a wish list of songwriters I'd want to speak to. David Bazan was at the top of my list. His songwriting has been a major part of the soundtrack for over a decade now. Scheduling an interview proved that perseverance can be damn hard, but rewarding. As I spoke to TW Walsh and then Derek Webb, Bazan seemed to be the connective tissue of the conversations. It was an honor to be able to speak with David Bazan about his new album and his perspectives on wrestling with belief through songwriting.

I go back to church. My thoughts on Church, my kids in church and Pentecost.

Our series "Processing Belief Through Music" continues as Derek Webb joins me to discuss his music, upcoming album and his tumultuous relationship with Christianity.

BRAAAAINS! This week we sort through a pile of movies on our doorsteps and then dive into a trifecta of brain induced mayhem! First we break our Arrow Films Blu-ray of Frank Henenlotter's BRAIN DAMAGE (1988); then we follow Edward Furlong into some CD-ROM Horror with BRAINSCAN (1994) and finally we unearth 1988's criminally underseen THE BRAIN. As always, Josh Obershaw runs down the latest physical media news.

I wasn't a fan of Patreon's changing pricing structure, so I took it all down. In 2018, I'll be re-structuring "premium" content for those who are interested in The AxPx Diaries continuing or for those who just want to financially support The AxPx Podcast. Look for a "Patron Saint" page launching soon. Until then, check out the handful of AxPx Diaries episodes I've done so you can get a taste for what the AxPx premium content will be like. Here's my first "AxPx Diary" episode! Enjoy!

TW Walsh kicks off our series "Processing Belief Through Music." I've been a fan of his music since discovering The Soft Drugs in 2008. Before that, TW spent time on the road and in the studio as a member of Pedro The Lion. Since he didn't grow up around "Christian Culture," his insights as an outsider looking in are valuable.

Grab the sunblock and gas up the weed whacker…it’s time for a POOL PARTY MASSACRE! Drew Marvick (the man responsible for all this) joins us to discuss his flick which originally had a budget of $11. Also discussed on the show is the 2001’s VALENTINE and the 1988 made-for-tv slasher EDGE OF THE AX!

This episode I sit down with beloved character actor Stephen Tobolowsky (Groundhog Day, Silicon Valley, Heroes just to name a few) to discuss his new book My Adventures With God.

We cover a handful of recent releases by Severin Films! Wild Beasts, Drive-In Massacre, The Survivor, Cathy's Curse, Dark Waters, The Other Hell, Dream Stalker and Death By Love.

This week we get all Sasquatch'd up! John Portanova, director of HUNTING GROUNDS (aka THE VALLEY OF THE SASQUATCH) joins us to talk about his film and to wax poetic about his favorite Bigfoot flicks.

The Splathouse Podcast and The Screamcast bumped uglies and created SplatCAST! We're hoping to do these episodes a few times a year. This episode chronicles the bizarre trajectory of 1990's MIRROR MIRROR into a quadrilogy.

While Star Wars was a cornerstone to my fascination with Science Fiction and Fantasy, Star Trek's ideas and philosophies gave me more to chew on as I grew up. Today's episode is dedicated to Star Trek and the impact Gene Roddenberry has made in our lives.

In an epic What's On Your Doorstep segment we cover over 20 films, including The Void, When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth, Abattoir, Split, and Don't Kill It. 1977's DEMON SEED is our featured film this week, followed by 1992's HOMEWRECKER as our VHS-OMG pick and LAWNMOWER MAN 2: BEYOND CYBERSPACE in Stream Screams.
