| 0:00.0 | Hello, friends. Welcome back to another episode of theology in the raw. My guest today is Jason |
| 0:04.9 | Woodruff, who many of you, most of you probably won't know that name, but many or most of you |
| 0:10.7 | will have heard me talk about the pour over podcast. The biggest, I'm going to just read their |
| 0:16.9 | byline here. The biggest news of the day summarized in a way you'll actually understand and enjoy |
| 0:21.6 | paired with brief Christian perspectives, stay informed while keeping focused on Christ. |
| 0:28.7 | I was blown away. I came across the pour over podcast a few months ago. They also have primarily |
| 0:34.2 | it's a newsletter that goes out giving you the information, the news information of the day, |
| 0:39.0 | without giving you a biased perspective, a biased slant on that news information. If there is any |
| 0:46.7 | bias, it is to bend us toward our allegiance towards Christ. So Jason is the founder and one of the |

| 1:45.0 | only know if you know the backstory here, but man, I, I, the, the back back story is I've for a long |
| 1:53.0 | time. I've been so just jaded by narrative driven news outlets to the point to where I had to |
| 2:02.2 | delete all my news apps. And I typically get my news from listening to long form podcasts. I'm |
| 2:08.2 | different from people that are, they're not committed to a particular narrative. And that's kind |
| 2:14.0 | of where I get my news. But I'm like, yeah, sometimes I just want to just give me just, can somebody |
| 2:19.5 | give me the facts of what happened today? That's it. Hey, Trump did something. This is what Trump did. |
