Eye of the Storm: Recent Episodes
ZBJS
The Eye of the Storm podcast seeks to have open and honest discussions about interesting, difficult and controversial topics, such as: human origin & condition, religion & moral framework, dogmatism, and every-day events that affect our lives during this journey on earth.
We are not experts. We are regular guys. We will make mistakes, we will be ignorant at times...that's the reality for most of us humans.
We want this podcast to show that while none of us will agree on everything, we CAN address difficult and triggering subjects together and collaborate in meaningful ways.
🔴 🔴 EPISODE 10: Political Polarization is your fault, not ours! | Eye of the Storm. This episode is all about how polarization is worse than ever, how it started, where it is going and possible solutions

The point of making this podcast is to show that while none of us will agree on everything, we CAN address difficult and triggering subjects without resorting to personal attacks or retreating to safe spaces. We can do this simply because we acknowledge the fact that each of us KNOWS VERY LITTLE. In fact, we likely know a lot less than we think we do. Perhaps that rings true for you as well. We believe in both vulnerability and respect. We also believe in entertainment... and hope you find the Eye of the Storm to be exactly that. So please, join the conversation!

SEASON 2, BABY! ...ok, more like a hiatus for 2,020 reasons... In this, our 8th Episode, Zac, Jordan, Brian and Spencer discuss the LDS Church's history with race, and the approach now. We delve into how a prophet, who is said to speak for the church on behalf of Jesus Christ (his church), could have very racist leanings. Does that discredit him? Does it discredit the entire church?? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below! Also, we have a new Producer, Scott Parker, who is doing excellent work already. Thanks Scotty!

Has the church's response to the priesthood ban been disingenuous? Was the priesthood ban motivated by racism? If so, how can we trust that current church policies are not also motivated by some form of prejudice and will not also be rescinded? What does this mean about the church's claim to prophetic revelation? Is the Book of Mormon racist? Brigham Young: Can an individual be both a racist and a prophet? Does repentance apply to individuals only, or the whole church? Does the church need to “confess and forsake”? What is race, and what causes racism? How can the church make things better? Can the church make things better?

In this first episode, Jordan and Zac demanded that the four of us meet in person to discuss why meeting in person is a bad idea. ( ... ) With the outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), many people have their opinions. These are ours. While we may be light hearted, we absolutely do not want anyone to think we are taking the pandemic lightly. We simply want people to consider their options and keep a healthy and optimistic mind during global episodes such as this. We are not experts, nor claim to be. What we do claim is a fair amount of common sense, hope and lots of dumb humor to keep you entertained (we hope! Enjoy this first Episode.
