Summary
In this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we revisit the issue of whether we ought to be as skeptical about scientific claims as we are, after which we finally put the "better to have loved and lost" issue to bed. Jason shares some thoughts on the issue of irony and how it didn't exist until his own generation got all cynical and jaded. We then take a call about depression and how ineffective slogans are to help with it (plus, slogans are a dime a dozen anyway). After our break, we discuss the issue of what continually discovering new music has to say about the state of a person's soul (as in, is one's media consumption a microcosm that reveals how open- or closed-minded he is?). Christian is biebered by everyday pleasantries, while Jason's bieber has to do with not caring how disappointed people are with things.
Also, a T-shirt that says "G'Day, Mate"? Seriously?
