0:00.0	Welcome to the deconstructionist podcast. I'm your host John Williamson, and this week we welcome back the incredible Tony Jones.
0:16.2	It's been a few years since we last spoke to Tony, and obviously a lot has happened since then.
0:21.1	We get into all that, including his brand new book, The God of Wild Places,
0:25.4	rediscovering the divine and the untamed outdoors.
0:28.7	But before we get to that, hopefully at this point, at the time that you are currently
0:32.8	presently listening to this podcast, hopefully the website has been fixed.
0:40.9	So our good friend and website guy,

1:21.9	So just slightly different domain name.
1:24.3	Hopefully at this point, though, the new one is up and running.
1:26.8	It should look identical,
1:28.0	have all the same content. You can still go there to support us on Patreon. You can snag some
1:33.2	merch with new international shipping, read our blog, or stream any of our episodes for free.
1:38.6	And, you know, in the spirit of our technological nightmare this month, the good old podcast laptop that we have been using for pretty close to seven years now,
1:49.9	finally died.
1:51.5	And so we had to buy brand new equipment there.
