Welcome back to the Word on Fire's Show. I'm Brandon Vott, the host and the Senior Content

Director. I mentioned last week that Bishop Baron is taking a few weeks off from the

podcast during the month of July, but this week and next week we're still going to share

some great conversation with you. Today we're going to hear the audio from a recent episode

of the Bishop Baron Presents series. These are conversations where Bishop Baron pulls

in a major cultural thinker or influencer, anybody with intellectually invigorating ideas.

And today he's talking with Dr. Jason Blakely. Dr. Blakely is an author, a political science

professor. And in this conversation they discuss topics found in Jason's new book titled

We Built Reality, How Social Science Infiltrated Culture, Politics and Power, The Discussion

Ranges Over Many Disciplines, Including Herminutics, Economics and more. As usual, the conversation

is moderated by Jared Zimmerer, the Director of the Word on Fire Institute. And it's a

lively hour long conversation that I think you'll really enjoy. Before we get to the discussion,

though, I wanted to share one more bit of exciting news and that's the launch of a new addition

of Bishop Baron's classic book, Eucharist. We know that there's a huge rise in the number

of people who misunderstand what the Eucharist is or who disbelieve in the real presence.

We've talked a lot about that on this very podcast. This book, however, seeks to show the

truth of the Eucharist, especially through three of its major dimensions, namely the

Eucharist as sacrifice, the Eucharist as real presence, and the Eucharist as meal. This

new addition is a beautiful hardcover, gorgeous cover. You're going to love it when you see it.

We added a bunch of helpful notes since the first edition. You can find out more and get your

copy of the book at wordonfire.org slash Eucharist. Again, it's wordonfire.org slash Eucharist.

With that, I invite you to enjoy this conversation between Bishop Baron, Jared Zimmerer and Jason
