Check out www.scottroche.com. It’s my new website. Spiritualtramp.com isn’t going anywhere, this will still be my main blog. Not sure what I’ll do with it. I might put up the occasional post there re: writing in general or my writing in particular. Future podcasts will definitely go up there as well. What would you like [...]

Episode thirteen arose from the Penn video I posted yesterday. Referenced my post Communicate – when necessary use words. Also played a promo for Excuse me, Ghidorah! Music from3rd Man, called Blind Spot.

If Penn Jillette, comedian, illusionist, juggler, atheist, anti-bs artist, gets it then why don’t we as Christians get it? Watch this video so you know what the heck I’m talking about. ht to The Prodigal Jon

Hands down, my favorite hymn of all time, I present to you some variations on it. Victor Wooten plays it on his bass. The tune doesn’t start until about 1:30 in. Played on the bagpipes. Sid gave me a hard time about my bagpipe love. I want this played at my funeral. Sung by the [...]

So I saw Talladega Nights on the tube the other night. I like Will Ferrel (in tee-iny doses) and this was one of his funnier ones imo. That’s not so much the point of this post though. At one point his character Ricky Bobby (a spot on parody of a Nascar driver) was saying grace [...]

Episode twelve springboarded from a suggestion by Sid for us to talk about prayer in school. Pot stirred. Worms everywhere. The episode ends abruptly thanks to the sound issue I’ve been plagues with, but it’s still a forty minute episode (cut down from an hour) and has some solid talk. Referenced Beyond the Box’s episode [...]
