After that's done we do take on the idea of outrage culture, who does it better and is it worth your energy and attention. This episode also features one of my top four brother-in-laws, Nathan V.

They have predicted the end of the world, future world leaders and who I was supposed to be. What do we do when they are wrong and how do we address their failures?
I have great respect for the legit prophets that are out there, but, there are a ton of people out there saying they speak on behalf of God who take it a little to lightly.
2023-04-121h 46The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastMarriage Counseling feat; AmandaAfter the release of "Getting to know Mike" Amanda learned a few things and had some questions and we really felt like we could make some good content. Really we could call this one "Getting to know mike Better" but this was decided early.
2023-04-052h 23The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastGetting to know Mike and making a case for MarthaGetting to know a little bit about where Biker Mike comes from, both geographically and spiritually. Mike has some views that seem to be a little off but when you let him make his case, he seems a little less crazy, still crazy but at least you know how he got there.
At one point in the conversation he defends Martha, who Jesus rebuked, pointing out that too many Christian use this as an excuse to be task lazy and spiritually pretentious. It really is quite the little conversation.
Please excuse the glitch 2/3rds into...2023-03-291h 29The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastWhere does Metal music fall in the heirarchy of art? feat; Dustin LemoisAs fans of metal music, we've found ourselves under a certain level of disregard and at time ridiculed for our choice of musical preference. But, where does Metal music fall in the hierarchy of art? Some people say it takes no talent, like abstract art, upon further study, there is far more to it than it's initial impression. So we break it down and make a case for metal.
2023-03-221h 41The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastSportsBall!What is it about sports that people love so much? Not just the Big 4(MLB,NHL,NFL&NBA) but all sports. There is a strong bond between geographical unity and sport. The Olympics is one of the greatest examples of tribalism, we may hate everything about the athlete themself, but if they represent out country, we cheer as though it may help. If our team win, we win, if our team lost, they lost.
2023-03-151h 20The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastAngels? Where do they fit in the world of Philosophy?Biker Mike doesn't like angels, they confuse him and make him angry and uncomfortable with his materialistic understanding of the world. That does not take them out of the Biblical accounts and the human experiences of those that encounter them.
Where do they fit and how can we accept that they are part of our liturgy? If they are really, what would be their understanding of God and do they have free will? These are frustrating questions for Mike.
2023-03-082h 00The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastBeing Good or at the least doing our best with Brian NorderWhat does it mean when we try to be "good"? What is good? What is acceptable and unacceptable language and action?
We also enjoy some great conversation with our good friend Brian who is always a hoot.
2023-03-011h 35The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastOne year of BCP and a foursome is the best way to celebrate!The BCP podcast makes it one full year and over 52 episodes. We really knock this one out of the park.
We bring on 2 great guests and Devin does the one chip challenge(look that one up if you've never heard of it) and mike pitches a super TV show that could totally be great. Somehow we kick this one off with severely juvenile d*ck jokes and it kinda just goes down hill from there.
I know I've said it before but this really is one of the best episodes we've ever done. Thank Mike...2023-02-222h 28The Blue Collar Philosophers PodcastBecoming a MAiD man...
