Hey friends! This week we jump into the conversation on a new book "The Great Dechurching: Who's Leaving, Why Are They Going, and What Will It Take to Bring Them Back?" 40 million Americans are no longer going to church -- what does this mean for the country and for the Church? There are several excellent reviews and discussions on the topic of church decline, and we have some thoughts to add to the discussion.

Hey friends! This week on Wear We Are, we talk about the very first debate hosted by Fox News for the GOP that took place this last week. Eight candidates took the stage in Wisconsin and we talk about the highlights, the surprising exchanges, and who we think performed the best.
Did the debate change your mind?

Hey friends! This week on Wear We Are, we talk about the prevalence of anxiety and depression in young people, trigger warnings, trauma, resilience, and the larger therapeutic culture in the US. We take a look at this conversation through the lens of 3 essays out in the last week:
The NYT's coverage of the NJY camps
Jill Filipovic's Atlantic essay
David Brooks latest op-ed column
We add our own thoughts to this fascinating and burgeoning discourse.

Hey friends! This week on Wear We Are, we've got a two part episode. In the first part, we discuss recent essays by Christine Emba that have really stirred up the conversation on masculinity and why men are feeling so lost or embattled. The latest essay from Emba can be found on Wisdom of Crowds. We add our own thoughts to the conversation.
Next, it's the moment most of you have been waiting for: the first monthly installment of our 2024 GOP Power Rankings (starting at 29:05). We expect this ranking will change after the debate in a couple of weeks. What do you think of our ranking?
At the end of the episode (around 51:21), we provide our first monthly Pasta Power Ranking as well. Which pasta shapes made the cut? What are your favorites?

Hey friends! This week on Wear We Are, we wanted to comment on some recent Hollywood entertainment that's creating a lot of buzz and box office results: Oppenheimer and Barbie. The Bear on FX has also caught our eye. We cover the religious, cultural, and political significance of these works and hope you enjoy something a bit different from us. If you've seen any of them we want to know -- did you like them? Hate them? Have a nit to pick? Tell us!

Welcome to another week on Wear We Are. This week it's all about the latest in the 2024 election. This past Friday, 6 GOP candidates appeared at The Family Leadership Summit in Iowa to be interviewed by former Fox News host, Tucker Carlson. Bob Vander Plaats' gatherings have long been viewed as important for GOP campaigns in Iowa. Candidates were interviewed by Tucker Carlson on the US's support for Ukraine, China, the fentanyl crisis, and yes, cocaine...again.

Welcome to another week on Wear We Are. First, cocaine was found at the White House this past week, and we couldn't help but talk about it. Next, we answer the latest round of listener questions, prompted by a question on our favorite kind of political comedy. If you want to listen to our episode specifically on ranked choice voting, our most popular episode, it's #32.
News on the power ranking: we'll cover it monthly, starting in August, and we'll also include a pasta shape ranking because - why not?

Welcome to another week on Wear We Are. Last week, the Supreme Court wrapped up the current session with some major decisions. We break it down for you. While you can expect details and observations about the cases on voting rights, religious freedom, free speech, affirmative action, and student loans, we also have thoughts about the bigger picture of our current court. If you want to listen to our episode specifically on student loans, our most popular episode, it's #31.
Don't forget to let us know: Do you want a 2024 power ranking? You can email us at wearwearepod@gmail.com

Welcome to another week on Wear We Are. This week, we decided to ask: Why is Mike Pence running for president? Where does he fit in the race? What are his chances? The perfect person to talk to about Pence is, of course, Politico correspondent, Adam Wren. After this episode, you'll feel like you know more about candidate Mike Pence and why he has a shot at the Republican nomination.
What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Luke's book comes just in time for Father's Day and you can order it wherever books are sold.

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! With another update on 2024, we discuss the impending entry of North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum into the race and remind you of a clip of Burgum during the height of COVID.
Next, we tackle the big debate that goes around the media every few weeks: how old is too old for the US presidency? Is President Biden too old? Will this issue matter to voters come November 2024?
What do you think of this debate? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! We discuss two big 2024 announcements this week: Sen. Tim Scott and Gov. Ron DeSantis. What do these announcements tell us about their campaigns? Were they successful launches? Where do they go from here? We also got a debt deal last night, so we talk a bit through that brand new development.
What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! Senior Political Correspondent for Yahoo News, Jon Ward, joins us to talk about his new book, Testimony: Inside the Evangelical Movement That Failed a Generation, which details Jon's upbringing in evangelicalism and his coverage of American politics over the last two decades. It's a great conversation for those who may identify with Jon's story and for those wanting to learn more about the history of entanglement between evangelicalism and politics in the US.

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we talk about a recent newsletter over at the NYT written by Jessica Grose, "'Christianity's Got a Branding Problem.'" Talking about American Christianity in branding terms isn't new, but Grose is touching on a fraught conversation at the intersection of religion and politics and changing demographics. We also talk about Melissa's new essay on the branding of Motherhood over on Substack, just in time for Mother's Day.
What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we have the pleasure of welcoming guest Damir Marusic, editor at The Washington Post's Opinion section and host of the Wisdom of Crowds podcast and newsletter. Damir walks us through the biggest foreign policy stories of the last month -- the Pentagon intel leaks on Discord, Russia's war in Ukraine, Emmanuel Macron's controversial interview, NATO, the Yemen War, China's diplomatic moves and more. There's a lot to chew on, but we hope it will help you get a better handle on what's going on in the world.

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we start off talking about the expelling of the Tennessee Three from the state legislature this past week and the precedent it sets. Next, we discuss political science research from February that studies the "Need for Chaos Voter" and how it fits into what we know about American politics. Finally, Melissa points out an important and developing facet about TikTok.
What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we start off walking parents through tragedies like the Nashville school shooting and address any and all listeners who have kids who want to become politically engaged, whether it's through protesting, volunteering, writing to their elected officials, and more.
Next, we cover the viral WSJ-NORC poll that came out this past week. The poll shows that American values of religion, community involvement, and having children have plummeted since 2019. We parse through the meaning of a poll like this.
Finally, based on a reader question this past week, we try to explain the fight between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Disney World. It's certainly interesting!
What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we finally talk about Michael's injuries in recent weeks and the podcast moving forward. Moving on, we talk about President Trump's waning support from evangelical leaders, and how VP Mike Pence and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis are courting (or not!) evangelical leader support. We end the episode with a discussion of a recent NYT op-ed on remote work and the four-day work week that we found misses the mark on the debate surrounding the issue.
What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we decided to try a new format that we might use each week to highlight the 2024 campaign -- audio clips. We chose a few this week from Marianne Robinson, former Gov. Nikki Haley, and President Trump, plus a few fun clips thrown in at the end. What do you think?

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we are delighted to have our friend, Pastor Chris Butler, on the show. Michael's known and worked with Chris for years, and his commentary on the recent Chicago mayoral election and our politics in general is insightful and incisive. What do you think? We'd love to know your thoughts!

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear! In this week's episode, we talk about the recents news surrounding UFOs and chemical spills happening across the US and North America. It's all been a bit overwhelming, right? We talk about our general rules of thumb and approaches to consuming the news in times like these when it all becomes chaotic and speculative. In the second half of the episode, we talk about forgiveness in public life.

Welcome to another week of Wear We Are with Michael & Melissa Wear. In this week's episode, we discuss how the House voted to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House's Foreign Affairs Committee and what kind of insight it gives us into the Democratic party.
Next, we talk about the issues we think President Biden will address in the upcoming State of the Union (SOTU) address. We also discuss issues we wish would be discussed - a "pie in the sky" exercise - and why. Here and there, we discuss China's spy balloon that was shot down by the US military near Myrtle Beach on February 4th. Never did we think we'd discuss a weather balloon on a podcast.

We have two really wonderful guests this week, David Thomas (L.M.S.W.) and Sissy Goff (M. ED., LPC-MHSP), hosts of the podcast "Raising Boys & Girls" (also part of That Sounds Fun Network). Sissy and David work with families through Daystar Counseling Ministries in Nashville, Tennessee and have decades of experience walking boys and girls through all of life's ups and downs. We wanted to talk with them about the state of the American family and the challenges facing parents in 2023. We also wanted to ask them how politics is affecting parents and kids, plus how and when to talk to your kids about all kinds of difficult and scary current events. We hope you leave this conversation renewed and hopeful. Sissy and David are founts of wisdom and clarity!

The Biden Administration has a vision for this year: bipartisanship. We chat about this pivot and about two policy areas: immigration and tech regulations. But also this past week, it was revealed that classified documents were found at the Penn Biden Center and Biden's Delaware home. While we don't have many details on the documents and the ramifications with DOJ, this story will follow the Administration.

It took 15 rounds of voting, but we have a new House Speaker. We discuss the process, the political ramifications, how the GOP moves forward, how the Democrats move forward, and the cynical aspects of last week's important vote. We also discuss the Buffalo Bills, Damar Hamlin, and some New Year goals. Thanks for joining us!

Hi friends! We're a little late this week with posting this episode, but when you listen, you'll know why. In our last episode of Wear We Are for 2022, we wanted to look back at the trends, conversations, and developments in society -- the less-political aspects that bind our communities together. We talk about religious demographics, social media's longevity, smart phones, AI, and adolescent mental health. What were the trends you noticed this last year? What excites you or concerns you as we head into 2023?

Friends, we're nearing the end of 2022. Accordingly, this latest episode looks back at the politics of 2022 -- from foreign affairs, to legislation, to the midterms, to the economy, and everything in between. We also look to 2023 and where we might think there may be new developments. Come along for the nostalgic ride.

In this episode, we discuss the recent media and GOP reaction around President Trump's 2024 announcement and his Mar-A-Lago dinner with Ye and white supremacist Nick Fuentes. Is he really losing momentum? How does his reception and reputation compare to 2016 and 2020? Should we consider him the presumptive 2024 nominee already? We answer these questions.

We hope you had a great Thanksgiving! We are now in the time between an election and a new Congress -- we're calling it the Turducken (Lame Duck) Session. We tell you what Congress is working on and what's coming up before the House changes over from Democratic to Republican.

Tuesday is election day! We decided to invite Shadi Hamid, a scholar and writer at the intersection of democracy and foreign policy to talk about his new book, "The Problem of Democracy" and how democracy is playing out as an issue in this election. More than a foreign policy book, Shadi presents a new idea, "democratic minimalism" for us to consider in the US's foreign policy towards the Middle East and at home here in the US. There's much to chew on here -- what do you think? Do you agree? Disagree? We'd love to know.

We're now just 9 days from the midterms. In the second half of the episode, we point out some key House and Governor races that we're watching. In the first half of the episode, we discuss Friday's home invasion and subsequent violent assault on Paul Pelosi, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's husband. We discuss how we got to this point -- continued political violence -- and how we think it might end.

Hi listeners, what a week! With the launch of the Center for Christianity and Public Life (ccpubliclife.org) and the announcement of Michael's new book, we thought we'd "take it easy" and explain why the UK featured so prominently in the news this week. We tell you why Prime Minister Liz Truss had to resign, what might happen next, and how British politics is a bit different from our own. Melissa also lays down a big midterms prediction.

A few weeks ago, we asked our listeners on Instagram for their burning questions. This week, we answer three of them:
- Can ranked choice voting work nationally?
- Can you talk about the electoral count reform act?
- Can you tell us about an issue you worked on in the White House that still isn't resolved?

Italy elected a new prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, and her victory has prompted a new round of discussion regarding nationalism, identity and politics. In this episode, we discuss these themes, what the response to appeals like Meloni's so often get wrong, and how Christians can respond to these kinds of issues.

In this week's episode, we give you the best case and the best scenarios for the GOP this November, i.e. how they can win back the Senate and the House. If you missed our case for Democrats, then head on over to Episode 33. What do you think of our case for Republicans? Also, Melissa gives a quick overview of Queen Elizabeth II's death and how the UK has weathered the last two weeks of big changes.
Do you have any other burning politics questions for us? Before the midterms on November 8th, we will record a listener episode, so start sending 'em in by messaging us @MichaelRWear on Twitter, @michaelwear on Instagram, or by subscribing and contacting us at reclaiminghope.substack.com.

The first episode in a two-part series, we give you the best case for Democrats defying expectations in November and retaining the House and Senate. We had been skeptical of talk about Democrats' momentum until recently when a number of developments have led us to think the party has a chance to keep control of at least one of the two bodies of Congress. In our conversation, we discovered that we think there's a certain voting constituency -- security moms -- who might be an interesting voter group to watch this November.
Next week, we’ll air Part Two and give you the best case for Republicans flipping one or both legislatures and showing that historical precedent prevails as usual.
What do you think about our case for Democrats? Vote in the poll on Spotify!

In this week's episode, we cover ranked choice voting: what it is, what are its benefits and drawbacks, and how it worked in Alaska's special election this past week. Do you like ranked choice voting?
In the second half of the episode, we cover the contents and delivery of President Biden's speech at Independence Hall in Philadelphia on September 1, 2022. The President talked about the threats to democracy in the US, and we give our assessment of what we think the President was trying to achieve with the speech. What did you think about President Biden's speech?

In this week's episode, we tackle the decision made by the White House this week on student loan debt forgiveness. You can listen to what we think about debt forgiveness more broadly in Episode 18. But in this episode, we contend with the actual policy itself. Is it progressive? Is it regressive? What about long-term implications? To wrap up, we discuss some of the common reactions from Christians we've seen on social media -- and provide some cautions.

Wear is the Love, Episode 29
In this week’s episode, we discuss two things: the new NYT/Siena polling on the 2022 midterm election and Sen. Joe Manchin’s recent scuttling (over inflation concerns) of the last dregs of Build Back Better. (NYT) The midterm polling has some super interesting nuggets around Biden v. Trump, voter issues, and generic congressional ballots. President Biden will sign an Executive Order on climate programs in response to Manchin — and you’ll hear how we feel about the White House’s decision to split up prescription drugs and ACA extensions and climate/energy. (CNBC)
Episode notes:
NYT/Siena crosstabs
WaPo’s Editorial Board opinion
Jonathan Chait’s essay for NY Magazine

The Top 5 articles for your week:
“There are Trees in the Future, Or, A Case for Staying” (Protean Magazine)
Because Lupita Limón Corrales asks, “If every place becomes any place, what difference does it make?”
“What Counts As Seeing” (Orion Magazine)
Because this is a delightful interview between Alice Wong and Ed Yong, a science journalist for The Atlantic, on his latest two books. Yong says, “We think of the senses as passive intake valves: Light enters my eyes; my ears are vessels for absorbing sound. But actually the senses have this almost active role in shaping the world around us. In viewing nature’s palettes, eyes also act like paint brushes.”
“Keeping our options open” (Aeon Magazine)
Because “Whenever an insect species vanishes, or a language loses its last native speaker, the biosphere loses options.”
“Uyghur Poems From a Chinese Prison” (The Atlantic)
Because *“Poems—which can be composed

Wear is the Love Episode 28
On this week’s episode, we talk about the role of influence in DC politics and who has it via this Rolling Stone article, “SCOTUS Justices ‘Prayed With’ Her — Then Cited Her Bosses to End Roe”. We also talk about all the whispers surrounding the coming(?) recession and how economist Kyla Scanlon has written a hilarious and informative article called “The Vibecession.” Her piece got me thinking about the amount of cynicism in American culture towards America itself right now, and how that’s affecting us all. Many vibes on this pod. Many vibes.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The Vibecession: The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy” (Substack)
Because are we headed into a recession? No one knows! But Americans are starting to feel like we are, and that counts for a lot.
“Joe Biden: Why I’m going to Saudi Arabia” (Washington Post)
Because President Biden defends his trip Saudi Arabia, despite the country’s involvement in the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi and other human rights issues, and essentially lays out his Administration’s approach to the Middle East.
“Unsettled” (The Verge)
Because last week, we included a housing crisis article in the Top 5, and this week, The Verge covers the bureaucratic mess for housing refugees at the moment, especially since Biden administration officials report that the US is not hitting resettlement targets.
“Signs of Life” (Hazlitt)
Because “Psychologists agree that repeated exposure to trauma stories, even if that exposure is only second-hand, leads to a “disrupted world view,” one wherein the world no longer appears benign.”
“There I Almost Am” (Yale Review)
Because this is a more unusual article to include in the Top 5 — more literary than ideas-based — but it’s about what it’s like to be a twin. It’s beautiful.

Wear is the Love, Episode 27
On this week’s Wear is the Love, we return to our love story. The last episode where we shared a bit about our relationship (#15) seems to be a fan-favorite, and so we thought we’d pick up where we left off. This will hopefully be a welcome break from a pretty intense news cycle, though rest-assured we’ll be back to break down the news next week.
Episode notes:
From A New Brain:
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“You Can Spot Climate Change in Old Restaurant Menus” (The Atlantic)
Because seafood-heavy Vancouver is mostly serving squid these days, due to warming water temperatures. Restaurant menus are now a major marker for those measuring climate change.
“Cognitive Behavioral Soulcraft” (Hedgehog Review)
Because we’ve gone from self-help books to Cognitive Wellness Culture (CWC), a movement for dealing with distraction and the attention economy.
“A New Americanism” (Foreign Affairs)
Because while this essay is from 2019, it is an excellent history of the definition of nationalism, how it’s evolved, and how myth-making and the nation-state go hand-in-hand. It’s pertinent for today, when the term (nationalism) is thrown around a lot in current commentary.
“What Happened to Consensus Reality?” (The New Atlantis)
Because the opening salvo of this essay is a good chaser to the two articles above: “Do you feel that people you love and respect are going insane? That formerly serious thinkers or commentators are increasingly unhinged, willing to subscribe to wild speculations or even conspiracy theories? Do you feel that, even if there’s some blame to go around, it’s the people on the other side of the aisle who have truly lost their minds? Do you wonder how they can possibly be so blind? Do you feel bewildered by how absurd everything has gotten? Do many of your compatriots seem in some sense unintelligible to you? Do you still consider them your compatriots?”
“Hot regression summer” (Dirt - Substack)
Because - are we experiencing the end of original pop culturemaking? (I don’t think so; I think we’re in a time of looking back - or nostalgia - in order to make sense of the chaos right now, but I’m open to this essay’s argument)

Wear is the Love, Episode 26
With the Supreme Court decision to strike down Roe v Wade, we discuss the fallout, and a potential, though unlikely, path forward for Democrats. We also discuss the newly signed gun reform law, which happened in almost near obscurity with all the attention on Dobbs.
Episode notes:
Dobbs reactions in Politico, including Michael’s
Michael’s essay on Dobbs
President Biden signing gun reform into law (BBC)
The support of paid subscribers is what makes this work possible. Please consider becoming a paid subscriber, and gain access to all of our coverage and content in the run-up to the midterm elections in November.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Teenage Justice” (The Cut)
Because though we don’t necessarily agree with all the ways the author frames her arguments, this is an interesting window into young people’s desire to establish and enforce a new culture and set of norms concerning sexual harassment.
“When Innocence Isn’t Enough” (The New Republic)
Because this article shows another confounding facet of our judicial system by chronicling the life of Christopher Dunn, an innocent man, who was sentenced to life in prison but cannot get out of jail in Missouri due to state laws.
“How 2022 Became the Year of Over-the-Top Masculinity in Politics”(Washington Post Magazine)
Because “…perhaps the bigger question about the rise of an ultra-macho style in Missouri’s — and America’s — politics isn’t whether it’s effective; it’s what it all means. If this new exaggerated masculinity proves consistently appealing to voters on both the right and the left, then what does that suggest about the kinds of candidates who can, and cannot, realistically seek office in the future? About what types of issues we can debate and on what terms? About what kind of people we want to lead us — and what kind of country we want to be?”
“Brexit: Good or Bad for Britain?” (Persuasion - Substack)
Because, hey, the USA isn’t the only country with interesting fallouts from big political decisions. I really like this debate on what’s happened in the last 6 years in the UK with the 2016 vote to leave the EU.
“The Invisible Man Does Elegantly What Promising Young Woman Fails to Do with Lectures” (Freddie deBoer - Substack)
Because deBoer talks about the ham-handedness of some movies lately when it comes to being political, and where we might see filmmaking go. “I look forward to a correction for this stuff in the coming years, where getting more films by women and filmmakers of color stops being a novelty and people are more comfortable letting the stories tell the tale, in and of and for themselves.”

Wear is the Love, Episode 25
On this week’s episode, we discuss Sen. Mitt Romney’s “Family Security Act 2.0” which is a new child allowance bill that looks a lot like his excellent bill from February 2021. We like a lot about the plan, but do have some critiques. What are your thoughts?
We also discuss this article in the NYT, “Democrats’ Risky Bet: Aid G.O.P. Extremists in Spring, Hoping to Beat Them in Fall” about some party operatives’ new strategy of propping up MAGA Republican candidates over more moderate Republican candidates. We have a lot of feelings around this one. It’s a Bad Idea.
Episode notes:
The croissant TikTok
Niskanen Center analysis of the Family Security Act 2.0

Speaking of 25, you still have time to grab a one-year subscription to this newsletter for $25! We’re deep into midterm season, and we know that daily, there’s something new going on in the world that everyone’s talking about. We’re here to help, and your subscriptions help fund the hours we put into this newsletter and its podcasts.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The Long Shadow of Eugenics in America” (NYT)
Because the case of the Relf sisters and their government-forced sterilization has had decades of ramifications: “The concept of reparations has long been contentious, debated in Congress and elsewhere as a question of what is owed to U.S. citizens who are descendants of those who were enslaved centuries ago. But the steps to compensate the living victims of forced sterilization can also be understood as reparations, and with three states having done so, new pressure has been placed on the remaining 29 states and the federal government itself.”
“Some Quick Thoughts on LaMBDA and Sentience” (Substack - Out of the Ordinary)
Because this short Substack piece on what “sentient” actually means in the AI world and how we’re talking over one another right now on this issue is actually helpful. In particular, “Lemoine’s case also demonstrates the ease with which future AI systems may be able to manipulate humans. The large language models of five, ten, and twenty years from today are likely to be far superior to LaMBDA. How many people will these systems be able to convince of their sentience? My guess is that Lemoine is merely an early adopter of a view that will, in future decades, be held by a non-trivial share of people. And once a non-trivial fraction of people think AI systems are sentient the odds that AI comes to dominate our institutions go up. People often ask how a generally intelligent but disembodied AI could wreak havoc in physical reality; this is one clear path.”
“The End of the Asset Economy” (The Atlantic)
Because *“‘Why not take the loan?’ has been a pretty good summary of American wealth building and class dynamics in the past few decades. An extended period of low interest rates has translat

Wear is the Love, Episode 24
This week, we discuss the first primetime, live hearing of the January 6th select committee investigating the January 6, 2021 insurrection. It’s a brief episode, but we see some glimmers of hope for competence and professionalism in this first hearing, and discuss what comes next from the committee.
What were your thoughts?
Episode notes:
“After dramatic first night, Jan. 6 panel plans several more high-profile hearings” (WaPo)
“The Jan. 6 Hearing Put a True-Crime Drama on Prime-Time TV” (NYT)
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Permanent Pandemic” (Harper’s Magazine)
Because this essay is particularly thought-provoking. “The new regime is as much a technological regime as it is a pandemic regime. It has as much to do with apps and trackers, and governmental and corporate interests in controlling them, as it does with viruses and aerosols and nasal swabs. Fluids and microbes combined with touchscreens and lithium batteries to form a vast apparatus of control, which will almost certainly survive beyond the end date of any epidemiological rationale for the state of exception that began in early 2020.
The last great regime change happened after September 11, 2001, when terrorism and the pretext of its prevention began to reshape the contours of our public life.”
“400 Years Ago, They Would Be Witches. Today, They Can Be Your Coach.” (NYT)
Because Molly Worthen writes with great care here, while not avoiding critical questions: “Spiritual coaches provoke a raised eyebrow, in part, because secular people still believe in the ghosts of Christendom — including the idea that religion should be hard and not particularly democratic. It shouldn’t be something that a frustrated woman can just assemble for herself; it should require submission to some venerable institution with ancient traditions. I’m not sure those ghosts are entirely make-believe. Self-made liberation can turn into an existential hamster wheel: Manifest one accolade, and then you’re breathlessly onto the next. What’s the point? Perhaps true freedom “is not the absence of limitations and constraints but it is finding the right ones, those that fit our nature and liberate us,” the Protestant theologian Timothy Keller wrote in his book The Reason for God.”
“The Art of the Pump” (Washington Monthly)
Because *“PredictIt, it must be said, is a strange place—an eclectic virtual clubhouse teeming with cliques and crazies, conspiracy theories and camaraderie. But amid the madness, a powerful force is at work. Here, those with a sixth sense for distinguishing news from noise get paid. Here, in a game where information is money, expertise is measured not with blue checkmarks or column inches, bu

Wear is the Love, Episode 23
This week it’s all about gun safety legislation, which is being voted on in the House. The Senate will also have its chance to have its say, but potentially not until next week. We discuss the possibilities, plus our views on President Biden’s surprise speech on the issue last Thursday. Let us know your thoughts!
Episode notes
President Biden’s speech transcript
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Waiting at a Texas hospital for children who never arrive” (New Yorker)
Because this shorter essay from a doctor at one of the receiving hospitals near Uvalde is heart-wrenching. This line got to me, “At 12:17, my phone rang. It was Dr. Veronica Armijo-Garcia from the pediatric I.C.U. ‘This call just came in, and I don’t think it’s hit the news yet. We need to get ready for a pediatric mass casualty.’”
“What the Racist Massacre in Buffalo Stole From One Family” (NYT)
Because this is another heart-wrenching essay about the life of Celestine Chaney in Buffalo, someone who was at Tops Friendly Markets for small dessert cups that she needed for her beloved strawberry shortcake. “Memories, however, refuse to be buried. Her light pinches and offers of peppermints to win silence during church services. Her two-step and arm bob whenever “Uptown Funk” played. Just her voice.”
“The Uvalde Police Chose Dishonor” (The Atlantic)
Because another week, another recommendation for Liz Bruenig on Uvalde, this time on the failure of police to act during the shooting and the refusal of some of their leadership to cooperate since. “Society cannot demand courageous self-sacrifice; we can only ask for it. Most of us know we ourselves would be too frightened to face an armed gunman in a direct confrontation, and we accordingly choose to seek work that doesn’t put us in such positions—or shouldn’t. But perhaps even some of those who do volunteer for danger now lack the fortitude, the relevant virtues of courage, honor, and selflessness, to take up the task.” Phewwwww.
“Imaginology” (Aeon Magazine)
Because Stephen T. Asma, a professor of philosophy, is calling for a new way to organize how we learn, and it’s a daunting proposal — combining how we teach and learn science with how we teach and learn humanities. “Imagination Studies, or imaginology, also promises to reunite the body and the mind, reintegrate emotion and reason, and tesselate facts and values.”
“The Woes of Being Addicted to Streaming Services” (Pitchfork)
Because we’ve shared a lot over the years about the attention economy, and this article on the streaming service Spotify (a service where this podcast is listed!) and what it’s done to listeners (rather than artists) is an angle I haven’t heard before. *“Four years ago, while the app’s algorithmic autoplay feature was on, I was served the Pavement song “Harness Your Hopes,” a wordy and melodic—and by all accounts obscure—B-side from the beloved indie band. As of this writing, the song has over 72 million streams, more than twice as much as their actual college rock hit from the ’90s, “Cut Your Hair,” the one Pavement song your a

Wear is the Love, Episode 22
It’s been a rough week. Michael recaps the May 24th primaries, and then we discuss the aftermath of all these shootings. We don’t have answers, and we can’t put a bow on things, but maybe the episode is a place for grief? We’re not sure. Take care, dear friends.
Michael & Melissa
P.S. Don’t forget that this past week we launched The Morning Five. Our hope is that it might be the kind of quick listen that helps you situate your day, and the events of the day, within the scope of God’s grace. Maybe listen to it while you drive the kids to school as a way to pray together and think together. We’re experimenting with it for now, but will likely make it available on Apple Podcasts and other podcast services soon. New episodes every mornng, Monday-Thursday.

Henri Nouwen devotional: “The Blessing Hidden in Grief”
Liz Bruenig’s pieces in The Atlantic: “78 Minutes” and “A Culture That Kills Its Children Has No Future”
“Police inaction moves to center of Uvalde shooting probe” (AP)
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“A Gentler Christendom” (First Things Magazine)
Because Ross Douthat writes on Jacques Maritain and how to handle the decline of Christianity. “For those with ears to hear, these are the practical lessons of the recent Christian past, and especially of our own country’s history. Religious power wielded wisely and mildly and indirectly, with due respect to liberty and diversity and a focus first on the faith’s internal health and zeal, can sustain a religious ascendancy for many generations. But religious power wielded too much against pluralism, with political ambition substituting for real faithfulness, will corrupt and enervate and bring about its own reward.”
“What Progress Wants” (The Abbey of Misrule - Substack)
Because “The Italian philosopher Augusto Del Noce saw the modern era as a thorough and permanent revolution - a radical break with the human past. He defined a modern person as ‘someone who thinks that “today it is no longer possible…”’ We do not tend to see our time as continuous with what has gone before…By sweeping away old ways of thinking, seeing and living, modernity has produced ‘a type of violence capable of breaking the continuum of history.’”
“The Rotten Core of Our Political System” (The Atlantic)
Because we’re reading the new book, “This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America’s Future” and enjoyed this review from George Packer.
“Inside LA’s Homeless Industrial Complex” (The New Republic)https://anchor.fm/wear-we-are/support
Friends,
We’re trying a new experiment. Every Monday-Thursday morning we’ll release a brief, 5-minute podcast episode to start your day off with prayer and a brief recap of the news of the day. Our intent is to provide you with another easy way to pray and learn about the news without provoking unnecessary anxiety, anger or antagonism.
We won’t email you every day with the new episode, so be sure to add it to your RSS feed or check in at reclaiminghope.substack.com in the morning for each new episode.
The first episode runs a bit longer than future episodes will as Michael introduces the podcast. We hope you find this experiment valuable. We trust God will make use of it.
Yours,
Michael and Melissa

This week we discuss the primaries on May 17th — who won, who didn’t, what surprised us and what didn’t. We also discuss Lis Smith’s op-ed in WaPo on the Dobbs abortion case, “This is not the time to change how we talk about abortion.” And finally, we discuss Matthew B Crawford’s article on liberalism, which is number 1 in the Top 5 below.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
- “Covid was liberalism’s end game” (UnHerd)
Because “The pandemic brought liberalism’s deeper contradictions into plain view. On the one hand, it accelerated what had previously been a slow-motion desertion of liberal principles of government. On the other hand, Covid culture has brought to the surface the usually subterranean core of the liberal project, which is not merely political but anthropological: to remake man. That project can come to fruition, it seems, only with a highly illiberal form of government, paradoxically enough. If we can understand this, it might explain why our embrace of illiberal politics has met with so little resistance.”
- “An unintended consequence of mindfulness” (Washington Post)
Because “Mindfulness meditation is clearly effective at calming uncomfortable feelings, but some uncomfortable emotions are useful. Guilt can motivate us to apologize when we have hurt someone or to take action to undo some of the damage we’ve done. If meditation reduces that emotion, it could prevent us from doing the right thing.”
- “Globalization Isn’t Dead, It’s Just Not American Anymore” (Bloomberg)
Because “Around the world, governments are paying more attention to how globalization can threaten national security, citizens’ interests and the environment. To mitigate these risks and make globalization more palatable, many are shifting away from Washington-style laissez-faire policies to a more hands-on approach of ‘managed globalization.’”
- “Dislodged” (The Missouri Review)
Because “Any chances are hard enough to come by these days, I think. And everything these past couple of years has felt like a last chance. Just leaving my house to scrounge picked-over store shelves for toilet paper felt like a kind of last-chance endeavor. And truly, I am tired of thinking about last chances. What if the last time I saw my parents was my last chance to have seen them? What if the last time I stepped foot in the classroom was the last chance I had to do so? What about that last time I went to a concert and screamed in revelatory joy? Or the last time I sat inside a coffee shop? Or the last time I went anywhere without a mask?”
- “DeafBlind Communities May Be Creating a New Language of Touch” (New Yorker)
Because a new language is being created right now! How fascinating!
- BONUS: “Our Braided Bread” (Longreads)
Because this is simply a lovely essay from a writer in Iowa who bakes challah weekly, more often than he used to, and he’s trying to understand why.

Wear is the Love, Episode 20
In this week’s episode, recorded in San Francisco, we lament the mass shooting by a white supremacist in our beloved hometown, Buffalo. We discuss the heinous shooting in Buffalo, and how it’s a bit different when you’re reacting to the place you grew up.
Then, Michael discusses political homelessness, a topic he’s spoken on and written about for years, and rebuts a common critique.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The Monthly Salon: May” (Abbey of Misrule - Substack)
Because “‘Changing the world’ is of course a modern notion, and it has gone into hyperdrive since the 1960s, as religion, with its promise of perfected kingdom beyond this life, has been replaced by materialism, which requires us to try and achieve it in this one. But the prevalance of the ‘changing the world’ narrative has also become ubiquitous for another, more everyday reason: the world is getting worse. And the worse it gets, the more we are desperate to change it - or to believe that we can. With God gone, after all, what else is left to us?”
“Is a Better World Possible Without American Power? A Debate With Daniel Bessner” (Wisdom of Crowds)
Because we listened to this podcast episode this weekend and thought it was a super interesting distillation of Leftist frameworks and approaches to how the world works. (warning: explicit language)
“The Multiverse Swallows Everything — Including Politics” (Politico)
Because “…how could it possibly be surprising that the multiverse reigns supreme in our cultural imagination, when the core concept is one that treats aspiration as outright fantasy? The solutions offered by the loudest politicians today that might bridge that gap are frequently themselves little better than science fiction.”
“We’ve Never Been Good at Feeding Babies” (The Atlantic)
Because the formula shortage is a national conversation, but one that could be prevented, possibly. “‘There are only a few manufacturing plants in the country, and there are four infant-formula companies that control about 90 percent of the supply in the United States,’ Dittmeier told me. ‘It’s a highly concentrated market with a highly concentrated production capacity, so that when one plant is taken offline for just a period of weeks, you see these ripple effects throughout the entire sector.’”
“Whatever Happened to Identity Politics?” (NYT)
Because we enjoyed this conversation with philosopher Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò. *“There was one event in particular, where a group of people had come to visit campus from an alternative high school for kids who had been railroaded out of other school systems. Working-class, Black and brown kids. And they had come to campus to see what we were doing. And this person from the medical school comes up to speak and gives this impassioned description of how racially insensitive the med school practices are, and it’s just one of those “read the room” moments — this is the furthest thing from what your audience on this particular day rightfully cares about. That was a clear moment where I realized, “Oh, it’s not just that people talk this way when it’s just us academics around.” I think some people hav

The Top 5 Articles for your week
“Since Derrida” (Aeon Magazine)
Because this essay looks at the effects post-structuralist thinkers like Jacques Derrida and Michel Foucault have on identity politics.
“We Pay to Keep the Old Out of Poverty. Why Won’t We Do the Same for the Young?” (NYT)
Because this framing is helpful to think about the array of poverty policies we have the ability to enact for children.
“The One Parenting Decision That Really Matters” (The Atlantic)
Because statistically speaking, where (geographically) a child grows up has the most impact on the later success of that child. Are we all moving to Madison, Wisconsin now, or what?
“Fast, Cheap, and Out of Control: Inside Shein’s Sudden Rise” (Wired)
Because if Forever21 was the fast fashion giant of the 2000s, Shein is the new model. But labor reports and environmental reports show the ultra-fast retailer is inaugurating a new global reign for unsustainable business practices.
“How a Massacre of Nearly 300 in Syria Was Revealed” (New/Lines Magazine)
Because we must not forget the violence and turmoil of the last 11 years in Syria, and how it’s far from over. (n.b. there’s coarse language and fairly descriptive details of violence and death in this essay)

Should student loans be forgiven? By how much? At what income level? Just undergraduate loans, or should graduate loans be included? How might the politics of this issue affect the midterms?
We discuss each of these questions in this latest episode. Student loan debt forgiveness is all over the news, and it’s a potential midterm football. Our stances on the matter differ, but we hope you come out with a greater sense of the nuances of this complicated policy issue.
Episode notes:
Brookings: “Student loan debt is regressive…”
Roosevelt Institute: “Student loan debt is progressive…”
The Top 5 articles for your week
“The Technocrats Dilemma” (The New Atlantis)
Because “This is the fundamental mystification of technocracy: that public policy can and should be a technical matter for specialists. We are, as Habermas puts it, subjected to “the illusory attempts of the technocrats to have political decisions be directed only by the logic of objective exigency” — or, as it’s put so often lately, we must “follow the science.” But policy, quite obviously, cannot in itself be scientific. Science or expertise should be employed in making decisions about policy, but politicians and the experts advising them must ultimately make recommendations and decisions based on values, practical and moral commitments, and political realities and possibilities. These are not scientific and, in a genuine democracy, are meant to be subject to vigorous debate.”
“Escape to Zoom Island” (GQ)
Because “digital nomads” are potentially changing the way we think about work and where we work.
“As Pandemic Aid Ends, Struggling Families Face a Housing Nightmare” (Washington Post Magazine)
Because even as we talk about student loan debt forgiveness in the podcast, housing is another crisis for many people that we believe is worthy of similar policy scrutiny.
“The Hustler at the End of the World” (The Verge)
Because some people saw the pandemic in March 2020 and saw it as an opportunity, exposing the vulnerabilities of pandemic-ridden societies. “Many people feel as though the past two years were stolen, wiped from the calendar and replaced with a long and empty slog. Nearly a million Americans have died of COVID, but mask mandates and vaccine requirements are ending, and the country is ready to move on, variants be damned. Kaplan still views the pandemic as an opportunity, a gift of perspective that will shape the rest of his days. Money is great and all, but as he saw with Rob, you can’t take it with you. “Time is the most precious and finite commodity you have,” Kaplan said.”
“In the Dark” (Rest of World)
Because, *“Over the last six months, Rest of World spoke to more than 70 technologists, telecomms experts, activists, and journalists from around the world to track how governments’ control over the internet has grown and evolved during the past decade. Their testimony shows that the free, open, global internet is under severe threat. Telecomms blackouts an

The pod is back! This week, we received a request from a listener, Hannah, asking that we cover Jonathan Haidt’s recent article in The Atlantic, “Why the past 10 years of American life have been uniquely stupid.” Haidt focuses on the changing nature of social media and how it’s led to a Tower of Babel-esque problem for society. Complementary to this essay is President Barack Obama’s recent speech at Stanford University on disinformation and the future of our democracy.
Episode notes:
Derek Thompson’s recent article, “Why American Teens Are So Sad” (The Atlantic)
The Top 5 article for your week:
“‘It’s Life or Death’: The Mental Health Crisis Among U.S. Teens” (NYT)
Because this is another great entry to the current spate of articles on young people and how they’re understanding our world, and this particular article is a follow-up to the NYT focus group we covered weeks ago on the podcast and in the Top 5. It specifically follows the life and health records of one thirteen year old teen participant in the NYT focus group and how they’ve spiraled into mental illness.
“A Democratic Mythic?” (Hedgehog Review)
Because “A political ethos grounded in the democratic mythic should continually encourage us to engage opponents as if they share the core intuitions of that mythic. It is up to one’s opponents, in pursuit of their political goals, either to refuse or to reaffirm these intuitions. Their speech and action determine the possibility of further democratic engagement that might carry forward that evolving “we” of the democratic imagination. Whether they do so or not, it should be clear that positive political engagement does not have to rely from the start on banning the role of myth from democratic life, but, rather, on understanding what distinguishes a true democratic mythic from its reductively propagandistic uses and abuses.”
“Resisting a Culture of Incoherence” (Comment Magazine)
Because “The real challenge for people of faith in maintaining a coherent identity in the modern world is not that the proliferation of secular realms weakens the plausibility of religious belief. Rather, it’s that we’re socialized in ways that produce distinct internal conversations, models of desire, and habits in these realms that are disconnected from—if not at odds with—our religious identities. These are powerful cultural blind spots. And they cannot be overcome by sheer willpower. Being a coherent self is a practice. It requires contexts in which the practice can be regularly exercised.”
“The New Nuclear Reality” (New Yorker)
Because in the post Cold War world, Russia continued to cultivate its nuclear delivery systems while the US did not. Now, as Russia continues to wage war in Ukraine, what we know about nuclear deterrence and how it works is being challenged.

Next, we head over to Top 5 #1, President Clinton’s new essay for The Atlantic, which seeks to explain why he expanded NATO in the 90s. We discuss decision-making and the various considerations a president must make in big moments.
Finally, we cover the French presidential election. Voting begins tomorrow in France, and President Emmanuel Macron is in trouble. Far-right leader, Marin Le Pen, is very close in the polls. I explain the origins of Le Pen’s party, the National Rally, and why this election in France is significant for us.

“Parents Who Stay Home Should Get Public Child Care Support Too” (NYT)
Because Matt Bruenig argues, “Forcing parents to stock shelves when they’d rather watch their toddler is a victory for no one.”
“Is virtue signalling a vice?” (Aeon Magazine)
Because this article lays out the scientific inquiry into an oft-batted around concept - virtue signalling - in online spaces. “…virtue signalling is more nuanced and more interesting than the picture painted by conventional wisdom and political rhetoric. As it turns out, there are bad and good things about virtue signalling – but probably not for the reasons you think.”
“After 77 years in timeout, Germany is crucial to the fascist resistance” (Washington Post)
Because “Germany is no longer down; in fact, it is the linchpin of the resistance to Putin, thrust into prominence by a convergence of factors: its wealth, its geography and its ingrained fear of its worst self.”

“The Battle for the Mural — and the Future of Belarus” (NYT Magazine)
Because this is an excellent story of courage in the face of authoritarianism in Belarus.
“Forced to Care” (Culture Studies - Substack)
Because “What we have, then, is a caregiving paradigm — not just for kids, but for elders and other adults — that relies heavily on proximity to family and presumed willingness. For those without those things, there are two options: 1) pay a lot of money for help, or 2) figure it out your damn self.”
“How an Ivy League school turned against a student” (The New Yorker)
Because this story about Mackenzie Fierceton’s horrific childhood and the subsequent issues she faced with her Rhodes Scholarship and tenure at University of Penn show how we assume stories of trauma conform to stereotypes and statistics. “If trauma creates a kind of narrative void, Mackenzie seemed to respond by leaning into a narrative that made her life feel more coherent, fitting into boxes that people want to reward. Perhaps her access to privilege helped her understand, in a way that other disadvantaged students might not, the ways that élite institutions valorize certain kinds of identities. There is currency to a story about a person who comes from nothing and thrives in a prestigious setting. These stories attract attention, in part because they offer comfort that, at least on occasion, such things happen.”
“My Friend Goo” (Paris Review)
Because this is an absolutely heartwarming and heartbreaking story, somehow, about the relationship between a woman and a goose and how their relationship connects to the death of her younger brother.

“Stephen Colbert makes the case that faith matters a great deal” (Pundicity)
Because “Colbert speaks about the connection among humor, sacrifice, and hope that are bound up in his faith. Kahn, a Yale University legal scholar, sees in his parents' lives a secular parable of a post-religious world in which forgiveness is impossible and hope in the face of death is no longer sustainable.
In different ways, Kahn and Colbert make the case that faith matters a great deal. This is noteworthy at a time when Americans seem increasingly inclined to indifference toward religion and when churches seem largely incapable of communicating a core message that persuades ordinary Americans that religion provides something indispensable.”

Wear is the Love, Episode #13
We have a special guest join us this week on Wear is the Love — Washington Post Columnist Christine Emba. Christine’s excellent new book, “Rethinking Sex: A Provocation” releases on Tuesday, March 22, and Michael and I wanted to make sure you had the opportunity to hear about this vital work from its author. Rethinking Sex looks at cultural assumptions about sex and how our current approach to sex as a culture is actually working out for people. Christine offers a different path forward that we hope will open up the conversation about sex.
We loved talking to Christine, and commend her book to you—not because we agree with every line of it, but because of the work it does and the potential it has to reset and open up a toxic, destructive culture when it comes to sex. Additionally, an excerpt from the book ran in WaPo this week, and it’s in the Top 5 below.
Please note that if you typically listen to our podcast with your kids, we want you to know that because of the subject matter, we talk about sex and consent, plus sexual assault is mentioned a few times. However, if your child is of an age or maturity level in which they may discuss these kinds of topics, we think the podcast is a good conversation starter.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Opinion: Consent is not enough. We need a new sexual ethic.” (Washington Post)
Because “In our post-sexual-revolution culture, there seems to be wide agreement among young adults that sex is good and the more of it we have, the better. That assumption includes the idea that we don’t need to be tied to a relationship or marriage; that our proclivities are personal and that they are not to be judged by others — not even by participants. In this landscape, there is only one rule: Get consent from your partner beforehand. But the outcome is a world in which young people are both liberated and miserable. While college scandals and the #MeToo moment may have cemented a baseline rule for how to get into bed with someone without crossing legal lines, that hasn’t made the experience of dating and finding a partner simple or satisfying. Instead, the experience is often sad, unsettling, even traumatic.”
“Taking Stock” (Real Life Magazine)
Because this essay details the rise of “creator” in business jargon and “just as social media platforms early on helped rationalize co-creation as self-expression, a new suite of apps and tools want to do the same for ‘the creator economy,’ only now monetization opportunities (and not, it should be noted, guaranteed money) are a central part of the package.”
“Night Shifts” (Harper’s Magazine)
Because “When I spoke about the state of the field with the dream researcher Erin Wamsley, she described a kind of disappointment, a sense that the breakthrough insights into the nature of dreaming that seemed imminent a decade or two ago haven’t materialized. Over the past few years, this perceived impasse has led to the emergence of what a recent special issue of the journal Consciousness and Cognition dubbed “dream engineering.” To adapt Marx’s maxim, if hitherto the scientists have attempted to understand dreams, the engineers now seek to change them. In fact, the engineers argue that we can’t deepen our understanding of dreams unless we can change them.”

Wear is the Love, Episode #12
This week, we’re back to chatting about some of our Top 5 articles, specifically George Packer’s piece in The Atlantic on the school culture wars and Vinson Cunningham’s interview of Dr. Cornel West in the New Yorker. We’re still praying for Ukraine and hope you’ll tune into episodes 10 and 11 if you’re interested.
Also, don’t miss Michael’s posts from this last week, including his thoughts on cooking with love on a tight schedule, and his essay on the appropriate use of political power.
Episode notes:
Our Shared Past in the Mediterranean Curriculum (the project Melissa worked on a few years ago)
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The Grown Ups Are Losing It” (The Atlantic)
Because as we discuss on the podcast, George Packer asks “what is school for?” amidst the debates about what we’re teaching children in public schools.
“Cornel West Sees Spiritual Decay in the Culture” (New Yorker)
Because Dr. West is incisive here and throughout this great interview: “The secular has taken tremendous wounds and bruises in the last thirty years, because commodification is almost taking it over—and so, when you think of the secular, you don’t think right away of scientific authority, scientific breakthroughs. When you think of the secular these days, you think of careerism, opportunism, hedonism, egoism, individualism—and the ways in which science seems to be driven by corporate greed, seems to be moving toward the explosion of the planet or the collapse of the environment. So that the secular has a very different resonance now than it did in ’77. It’s almost as if everybody recognizes the spiritual decay and the moral decrepitude of the culture.”
“Awaiting a New Prophetic Dispensation” (Hedgehog Review)
Because “Perhaps we can tuck our disagreements about fundamental things away into our private lives, and let the public sphere be a place for adjudicating public things.”
“The man who paid for America’s fear” (San Francisco Chronicle)
Because in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, hundreds of Muslims were detained and jailed on charges of terrorism, and this essay shows the lingering impact that experience had on one such man.
“Here is How It Feels to Watch Russia Wage War in Ukraine” (NYT)
Because young people, i.e. those under 30 who know nothing but a democratic Ukraine, talked to the NYT about their experiences and attitudes towards the war.

Wear is the Love, Episode #11
Eleven episodes in, we have our first guest on Wear is the Love. Rev. Dr. Tyler Wigg-Stevenson, a dear friend and priest and nuclear abolitionist who is kind enough to talk to us about one of the most distressing things in the news right now: nuclear war. As an activist, Tyler has a lot of experience working towards the US’s reduction of nuclear arms, but he also knows how to talk about this subject in an accessible way. We hope you learn something new.
Episode notes:
New START Treaty
Treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons
The World is Note Ours to Save (Tyler’s book)
The Top 5 for your week:
“Barbershop Confrontations, Profane Signs and Despair: Pro-Biden and Alone in Rural America” (Politico)
Because I have said that the state of our politics is a reflection of the state of our souls, and this story on the experiences of rural Democrats is a searing account of how that plays out. (n.b. there is profanity in this article)
“Volunteer Hackers Converge on Ukraine Conflict With No One in Charge” (NYT)
Because we should anticipate the increasing role of cyber warfare in ‘traditional’ war, and what the future of policymaking decisions look like when volunteers and vigilantes can affect the outcomes of a war without much input or control from government.
“Does My Son Know You?” (The Ringer)
Because this is a gorgeous essay from Jonathan Tjarks, a man who is slowly dying from terminal cancer, and how he hopes his son will experience meaningful community from his adult friends even after Jonathan is gone.
“Ilya Kaminsky on Ukrainian, Russian, and the Language of War” (Literary Hub)
Because language has been used as a power move - a wedge issue - in Ukraine since it became independent, and one poet, Ilya Kaminsky, asks “what happens to language in wartime?”
“The war in Ukraine doesn’t need your ‘likes’” (Washington Post)
Because Christine Emba incisively critiques how “there is a growing tendency to view international conflicts either purely in terms of realpolitik — strategies and interests, bloodless and devoid of moral valence — or as an extension of fandom.”

Wear is the Love Episode #10
It’s a heavy week. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is all we can think about. We chat about my Substack piece on foreign policy and the Russian invasion and the issues of valor, public diplomacy, and masculinity that we’re seeing playing out in the news and on social media. We are actively praying for Ukraine.
Episode notes:
The photo of the children and the Ukrainian tank
The video of President Zelensky showing he is alive and well
The quote from Zelensky on offers of evacuation from the US
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The war in Ukraine could portend the end of the “long peace””(Vox)
Because this is a good article to pair with my Substack post this week on the myth of European peace — Russia’s war is shattering perceptions and realities about the European continent.
“What Does Putin Really Want?” (Politico Magazine)
Because Putin’s endgame is the question of the day, and Politico asked 19 experts about his possible motivations. One expert was blunt: “Putin’s endgame is nothing short of a revanchist imperialist remaking of the globe to take control of the entire former Soviet space.”
“Putin’s War at Home” (Foreign Affairs)
Because while Ukraine burns, Russian citizens are not giving Putin the tacit support he thought he would receive, and this costly invasion could make him more vulnerable to instability.
“Negotiating with Madmen” (Wisdom of Crowds)
Because it’s very easy to call Vladimir Putin “irrational” as we often do with authoritarian leaders, but this essay argues that Putin is following his worldview to its conclusion with the war.
“Economic sanctions were designed as a severe threat. Now they’re a default policy option.” (Washington Post)
Because if you’re wondering what a sanction is, when they’ve worked, and why they’re talked about so much, this essay is for you.

Wear is the Love, Episode #9
This week, we chat about the recent polling commissioned by the DCCC and reported by Politico (article here) that shows how Democrats, especially in vulnerable districts, are faring against Republican culture war attacks (spoiler: not well!). After, we discuss the NYT Magazine piece in the first Top 5 on what might be driving “anti-ambition” across American workplaces.
Episode notes:
IFYC report: “Evangelicals and Interfaith Engagement: Assessing Evangelical Resources, Motivations, Hesitancies, Hopes”
IFYC webinar registration, 2/21 at 1pm EST/12pm CT
Ezra Klein interview with David Shor (NYT)
“The Digital Gap Between Rich and Poor Kids Is Not What We Expected” (NYT)
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The Age of Anti-Ambition” (NYT Magazine)
Because the “Great Resignation” isn’t happening just because of burnout or because some would like a better title or salary. There are multiple factors causing workers to ask “ what is all this striving for?”
“A Child’s TikTok Stardom Opens Doors. Then a Gunman Arrives.” (NYT)
Because children and their parents are being given choices: pursue fame and fortune on social media apps and risk all kinds of negative consequences, or limit the potential for stardom, income and avenues of self-expression that comes with hyper-connectivity and virality. In a world where it seems there are no gatekeepers to attracting the attention of millions, how is one expected to turn down the opportunity to seek their affirmation and be validated by it? Our society has few ready, constructive answers to turn to when answering these kinds of questions.
“On Attentional Norms” (Hedgehog Review)
Because Alan Jacobs looks at the norms we’re creating on Zoom, that is how little time and attention we give to meetings and speakers. “But Zoom, it seems to me, is a medium that offers constant permission to be distracted. And while the norms of any particular moment are in a sense not objectively good or bad, they can be good or bad in relation to certain human purposes. The purposes I have in my classes are not compatible with the attentional norms that we’ve learned to employ in our teleconferencing pandemic.”
“COVID and the Brittle West” (The New Atlantis)
Because we’re at the point in the pandemic — two years in — where we can start asking questions about when the US’s public health policy succeeded in doing its job, and when it failed. And this essay argues that the West’s fixation on data and personal choice caused reactive rather than proactive policy decisions. *“Our need to fully justify action by politicians and public officials — a basic requirement of the rule of law — tended to reduce their ability to make decisions in a moment of emergency, when full justification by data, let alone publicly avail

Episode notes: Get your tickets to the That Sounds Fun Tour here. February 17th in Philadelphia, 730pm
As always, if you like this podcast, like this newsletter, you should consider supporting us! The Top 5 articles for your week: 1. “Let Your Kids Be Bad at Things” (The Atlantic) Because this essay is a bit more nuanced than its title, and it’s pretty hilarious, but it asks the question: do we ever stop caring about what other people think? 2. “Dear Sweethearts: Don’t tell me I ‘GOT THIS’” (Washington Post) Because Christine Emba tells it like it is: toxic positivity from the makers of sweethearts and M&Ms won’t solve our societal ills. 3. “The search for lost slave ships led this diver on an extraordinary journey” (National Geographic) Because some estimate around 1,000 ships sunk during the mid-Atlantic slave trade, and one diving group is helping to preserve artifacts [and history] from these ships. 4. “Grow Deep, Not Wide” (Comment Magazine) Because the entire new issue of Comment Magazine is beautiful and ruminates on the idea of “gift logic,” but my favorite essay in the bunch is from Joy Ike on what it was like to open up free painting on her porch in her Philadelphia neighborhood. 5. “How to Make a Deal With Putin” (Foreign Affairs) Because Michael McFaul, a former ambassador to Russia proposes this bold solution to the current Ukraine crisis because it could de-escalate tensions and provide a door for the energizing of many other US-Russia agreements: “Biden should seize the diplomatic offensive and counter with a comprehensive, grand bargain for enhancing European security. Call it “Helsinki 2.0.” This agreement could refresh and modernize the Helsinki Accords signed during the Cold War, which stabilized the continent even as U.S.-Soviet competition grew in other parts of the world. It could resuscitate and amend defunct arms control agreements and provide a bigger framework for European security, and in the process help solve the issues surrounding Ukraine.”

Wear is the Love, Episode #7
This week’s episode was recorded early due to Michael’s travel, and so instead of talking Top 5, we caught up on politics, including the latest scandal for UK PM Boris Johnson and how COVID has changed some conventional political wisdom on scandals. We also chatted about Maryland Governor Larry Hogan’s statements that he might run in 2024, and how leaders can still change the trajectory of party politics, especially for the GOP.
Episode notes:
Former PM Theresa May’s comments at Parliament (CNN)
More on the PM’s scandal (The Independent)
Hogan’s appearance on CBS about a potential 2024 presidential run
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“The moral calculations of a billionaire” (Washington Post)
Because one billionaire looks at where he’s come from, where he is now, and how he struggles with stewarding his fortune.
“Is This Still an Emergency?” (The New Atlantis)
Because this article on pandemic polarization is a great chaser to last week’s Top 5 and podcast feature on Thomas B. Edsall’s article. M. Anthony Mills observes: “…two years after the pandemic began, quite like two years after 9/11, today we are no longer united around a common purpose but divided. We are divided over the nature of the threat, what it will take to defeat it, and what defeating it even means. We are a long way from the tornado politics that seemed to characterize our pandemic response in the winter of 2020, and we are not likely to go back.”
“What College Students Really Think About Cancel Culture” (The Atlantic)
Because when we think about polarization, we tend to ask “how will any of us ever get along again?” There are many grassroots and nationally organized civil dialogue groups taking place on college campuses which gives us a bit of hope for the future of social cohesion.
“What Was the TED Talk?” (The Drift Magazine)
Because “…as Chris Anderson, TED’s longtime curator, puts it, “We live in an era where the best way to make a dent on the world… may be simply to stand up and say something.” And yet, TED’s archive is a graveyard of ideas. It is a seemingly endless index of stories about the future — the future of science, the future of the environment, the future of work, the future of love and sex, the future of what it means to be human — that never materialized. By this measure alone, TED, and its attendant ways of thinking, should have been abandoned.”
“If Everything Is ‘Trauma,’ Is Anything?” (NYT)
Because I (Melissa) am personally interested and invested in “semantic drift” or how our lexicon changes to fit the moment (the pandemic) and the

Wear is the Love Podcast #6
This week, we take on Thomas B. Edsall’s article, “America Has Split, and It’s Now in ‘Very Dangerous Territory.’” The articles, which is listed in the Top 5 below, covers “pernicious polarization” and some really fascinating studies about the level of polarization in the US. At the end, we also discuss the provocative question of the day: “Will there be a civil war in the US?”
Episode Notes
In the podcast, we mentioned this study out of Stanford on political sectarianism.
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“America Has Split, and It’s Now in ‘Very Dangerous Territory.’” (NYT)
Because “Polarization has become a force that feeds on itself, gaining strength from the hostility it generates, finding sustenance on both the left and the right. A series of recent analyses reveals the destructive power of polarization across the American political system.”
“What fast fashion costs the world” (Experience Magazine)
Because “Since 2000, the global production of clothing has doubled. Today, the average American buys about 68 new items of clothing a year.”
“The school shooting generation grows up” (Vox)
Because school shootings began in the 80s, and those young kids that experienced them are now fully grown adults who are dealing with the consequences of the events themselves and the lack of language and healthcare and dialogue afterwards.
“The Dream of Virtual Reality” (Substack - Convivial Society)
Because recent writing from David Chalmers argues for the actual “reality” of “virtual reality” and L.M. Sacasas dives into Chalmers’ points and asks some thought-provoking questions:
For example, I wonder for how many of us the experience of the world is already so attenuated or impoverished that we might be tempted to believe that a virtual simulation could prove richer and more enticing? And how many of us already live as if this were in fact the case?…The claim that, even now, virtual realities can outstrip my experience of the world is increasingly plausible when I have lost the capacity to wonder at and delight in the gratuity and beauty of the world. And there may be many reasons why such capacities may have diminished, ranging from the ever-more complete enclosure of our experience within a frame of human artifice to the loss of the arts of perception and the power of social structures that eliminate the gift of leisure in principle and in practice for so many. In other words, I mean for us to consider how we might have already begun to sever our relation to our common world long before the virtual worlds Chalmers envisioned are, if ever, realized.
“A Grand Unified Theory of Buying Stuff” (Wired Magazine)
Because one writer discovered that much of the time, the stuff we buy needs even more stuff. And during a supply chain crisis, that’s a critical realization.
*I am learning about the supply chain, procurement, product life cycle, and overall greenhouse gas emissions of the goods we buy. When I opened a spreadsheet to calculate the emissions of my drum machine excursion, listing all the stuff I’d bought and

Wear is the Love, Episode #5
We chat about Alissa Wilkinson’s “A Syllabus for a new world” and Yair Rosenberg’s “Your Bubble is Not the Culture” in this week’s episode. We also talk about the Buffalo Bills’ divisional game tonight against the Chiefs. Go Bills!!
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Your Bubble is Not the Culture” (The Atlantic)
Because “The deep-seated need to justify one’s own relevance is how we end up with cultural criticism that evaluates art as politics, rather than as art which also has political elements.”
“A Syllabus for a new world” (Vox)
Because “…real hope — not the kind politicians talk about, but the kind that keeps you alive — requires something other than violence and forgetting. To put it in Hannah Arendt’s terms, living well (perhaps living at all) requires amor mundi, or love of the world: the commitment to see the world not as we imagine it to be but as it really is, and to love it anyhow. Truly living means being willing to understand how we got here, and where we could go, to face our anxieties and agree together that mere survival is not sufficient.
Art can give us binoculars to see in both directions.”
“You Quit. I Quit. We All Quit. And It’s Not a Coincidence.” (NYT)
Because “Quitting rates were high in August, September and October. Then, according to Labor Department data, they climbed even further: More than 4.5 million people left their jobs voluntarily in November, a record high in two decades of tracking. Economists explained the numbers by noting that competition for workers led to better pay and benefits, driving some to seek out new opportunities. Psychologists have an additional explanation: Quitting is contagious.”
“Americans Feel Burnt Out — Personally And Politically” (FiveThirtyEight)
Because this is a detailed and comprehensive write-up of all the polling we have on-hand to try and explain why Americans across all political spectrums feel hopeless, embattled, or apathetic towards our politics.
“In Defense of Shame” (Gawker)
Because this is a provocative examination of performative vulnerability, and the expectations that often come with it. “Some combination of social media and reality television has led to a society in which fewer and fewer people seem to understand that self-expression is not unambiguously good. Vulnerability has been commodified, but so has a certain never-apologize mentality, despite the fact that the two are diametrically opposed. In fact, few acts require more vulnerability than admitting you were wrong. It is now widely accepted by many that the more publicly vulnerable you are and the more you over-share, the more you know yourself. Yet there is something much more productive and honest about sitting quietly with your own feelings, digging in before lashing out. Expressing does not necessarily equal processing.” (n.b. there’s some vulgarity in this essay)

This week, we discuss 3 out of 5 of our Top 5 articles, this time on the future of food. We really enjoyed recording this episode because we get to talk about Italy and Italian cuisine. Enjoy!
The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Massimo Bottura Wants You to Stop Wasting Your Food” (TIME)
Because there’s something incredibly special about using food and space and place to transform the notion of a typical soup kitchen.
“Welcome to invasivorism, the boldest solution to ethical eating yet” (Popular Science)
Because there are plenty of invasive species that could be eaten, and through their use, controlled better. But also, “‘Creating a market engenders pressure to maintain that problematic species,’…In other words, building demand for invasives on consumers’ plates might actually encourage their persistence in the long term.”
“Is the ‘Future of Food’ the Future We Want?” (Eater)
Because the restaurant industry and tech industry are teaming up to discuss and pilot new ways to provide celebrity food experiences to your front door. (n.b. there is cussing in the article)
“The Dirty Work of Cleaning Online Reputations” (The Walrus)
Because in exchange for several thousand dollars, anyone can curate their online history and reputation.
“Against the Stream:The forgotten pleasures of analog media” (The Yale Review)
Because the author, Jason Guriel, writes an ode to physical, slow-paced media and art. “If the present age, the Age of Scrolling, abets sampling and second thoughts, the Age of Browsing encouraged second chances. Owning physical media forced you to reckon with it, to appreciate it. (Maybe you sometimes tried too hard to appreciate something, but there are worse sins.) We steeped ourselves in stuff, and the stuff would start to sink in. Art has always required second—and third and fourth—chances to saturate the mind. Streaming platforms, on the other hand, flood the mind. They set it afloat and bear it away—on to the next novelty. They promise abundance but deliver a deluge.”

The Top 5 articles for your week:
“Routine Maintenance” (Harper’s)
Because - are habits and routines “machine-like” or are they closer to what Benedictine monks discovered in medieval times as a healthy way to live?
“It does not escape me that what I’ve been describing as a spiritual discipline bears an uncomfortable resemblance to the cruder ethos of “life hacking.” Perhaps I am no different from those data fetishists in Silicon Valley who refer to Benjamin Franklin as a “productivity master,” and speak of free time as a “release valve.” It is difficult today to avoid the thought that we are becoming as rigid and inflexible as the machines that structure our lives. The New York Times columnist Kevin Roose calls this process “machine drift,” arguing that it’s degrading our humanity and making us professionally obsolete.”
“Why Isn’t Biden’s Expanded Child Tax Credit More Popular?” (NYT)
Because, as we discuss in the podcast, many expected the program to receive higher approval, but several factors might be limiting support.
“The Forever Culture War” (The Atlantic)
Because “Elites in both parties enjoy a certain privilege—one appropriate to a rich, advanced democracy—that allows them to emphasize culture while deprioritizing economic well-being. Civilizational concerns gain more political resonance precisely as perceptions of civilizational decline intensify on right and left alike. But this particular kind of decadence—characterized, per The New York Times’ Ross Douthat, by reproductive sterility, economic stagnation, political sclerosis, and intellectual repetition—is an ideal foil for young conservatives cum reactionaries. It gives them something worthy of reaction. And, importantly, it doesn’t require being religious as much as it requires a recognition that religion is a vital societal good, regardless of whether it’s true.”
“The future of Europe hinges on the coming talks between the West and Russia” (Washington Post)
Because WaPo’s Editorial Board issues a dire warning about the situation the US finds itself in with Russian President Vladimir Putin threatening to imperil Europe if the US does not react strongly towards Putin’s threat of invasion of a sovereign country.
“Rootin’ Tootin’ Charcutin’” (Substack - Mothers Under the Influence)
Because charcuterie boards are all over our social media and our social gatherings, and it might be a deeper commentary on cultural trends — of abundance and individualism, of aesthetics and algorithm — than we’d expect.

We hope you’ll like it, and most of all, we hope it’ll be fun. The podcast will be a companion to the newsletter, and it will feature marital chatter about the latest in politics, faith and family life. Sometimes we may talk about things or issues outside of what’s written on Substack, but mostly we want this to be a place where we talk about 1-2 big, interesting, infuriating, and/or confounding news items. Those of you who love podcasts or listening to news will hopefully benefit from this form of the newsletter.
