| 0:00.0 | Hello friends welcome back to another episode of theology in the raw I am so excited about this |
| 0:06.7 | episode I've been wanting to have Shane on the podcast for a I mean a long time a number of years really we've gotten to know each other a bit |
| 0:16.0 | over the years mainly from a distance but really share a lot of common interests and |
| 0:20.6 | convictions as you'll hear in this podcast. |
| 0:24.0 | So, you know, I was gonna read his bio, |
| 0:28.0 | his, you know, the list of books he's written |
| 0:30.0 | and where you can find him, but you know what, |
| 0:32.0 | it's Shane Claiborne, and you're mostly most of you are Christians you should know who this guy is and so |
| 0:38.0 | without further ado here is the one and only shame playboy. All right, I'm here with the one and only Shane Claiborne, and we have so much to talk about. |

| 1:58.8 | because we often have you know kind of watch you're like wow look, grab the scissors, man, yeah. |
| 2:04.0 | So I shaved it all off, but, and then for a while, I had a deal with my wife. |
| 2:09.0 | She liked it short for a little while, so I got a back massage for every week that I left it short so that's |
| 2:16.0 | been a good bride. |
| 2:18.0 | So they're not coming back. |
| 2:19.0 | You're killing me, man. |
| 2:20.0 | No? |
