In the Plodcast, pastor Douglas Wilson covers anything related to theology and culture with his usual entertaining style. Whether it involves talking about Chestertonian Calvinism (not an oxymoron), the benefits of a Classical Christian education (not in that order), or the latest pomosexuality farce, the plodcast aims to apply all of Christ to all of life, for all the world. Douglas Wilson is an evangelical, postmill, Calvinist, Reformed, and Presbyterian (pretty much in that order) and is politically to the right of Jeb Stuart.

The Fall Line: a true crime podcast show

The Fall Line: a true crime podcastJoin Now to Follow

The Fall Line Podcast, a true crime audio serial, investigates the March 18, 1990 disappearance of Augusta, GA twins Dannette and Jeannette Millbrook. The twins, who were fifteen at the time, were treated without cause as runaways and their case was closed less than a week after their seventeenth birthday. Their family worked tirelessly to get the case reopened, and finally managed to attract the notice of a newly elected sheriff in 2013. Now, the podcast works to amplify the voices of the twins' family and to uncover facts, explore and dispel rumors, and develop theories in their case. Listen as we work to find Dannette and Jeannette Millbrook. The podcast is a longform audio-doc series that doesn't "get straight to the point' because this is a story about what is missing, not what has been found. There is a heavy focus on narrative, storytelling, and scaffolding. Promo intro music courtesy of ABett CC by 3.0 Episode theme music courtesy Valentin Sosnitskiy CC by 1.0
