Dan Belnap is a Professor of Ancient Scripture at Brigham Young University. One of the topics he writes on extensively is ritual worship.

I wanted to speak to Dan about why we worship in rituals and with symbolic clothing, as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints rituals and symbols are central mediums for how I express and live my faith.

Some highlights from this episode include Dan’s explanation of King Charles’ Coronation ceremony, the historical importance of washing and anointing prior to ordination, and the hidden meaning behind the clothes we choose to wear each day.

Dr Rosalind W Picard is an American scholar and inventor who is Professor of Media Arts and Sciences at MIT, founder and director of the Affective Computing Research Group at the MIT Media Lab, and co-founder of the startups Affectiva and Empatica. She has received many recognitions for her research and inventions.

I wanted to speak to Dr Picard about her conversion from self-professed proud atheist to powerful Christian tech pioneer.

Some highlights from this episode include Dr Picard's thoughts on an A.I Jesus, how complex computing taught Dr Picard about our journey to understand God, and what it takes for Dr Picard to teach a computer to recognise emotion.

Mama Sosa is a Latter-day Saint influencer who fearlessly shares her powerful faith story and gospel insights on social media.

I've wanted to speak to Sosa for a while on the podcast, she was on our Harrison Butker roundtable and I'm a big fan of her content on social media, so many things she has shared have inspired me to be more bold in sharing the Gospel online. This was a timely opportunity to speak to Mama Sosa with the impending release of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives on Hulu, as well as recent controversies with Hannah Neeleman at Ballerina Farm.

Some highlights from this episode include Mama Sosa's thoughts on Ballerina Farm, Mama Sosa's experience on MrBeast's Squid Game video, and how her life changed when she rediscovered God.
