Summary

In this episode, Tim engages in a deep conversation with Tripp Fuller about the intersection of social media, algorithms, and the evolving landscape of community and faith. They explore how social media algorithms shape our perceptions and relationships, the cultural context of political polarization, and the challenges of fostering genuine community in a digital age. The discussion also touches on the importance of having conversations across ideological divides and the need for a more inclusive understanding of community that transcends digital interactions.
