Radio Matt & Mo share three of their more audio-friendly YouTube show games in this special look back!
Growing up in the 90s, the thought of Marijuana becoming legal was unthinkable. It was almost exclusive considered a deviancy, a gateway to worse drugs, a symbol of a sub-culture that wanted to throw their lives away for a high. But as time has moved on, the stigma around marijuana has started to fall, especially as the use of it for medical purposes has become more and more commonplace. It has become a gray area for Christians, one of many gray areas that have arisen in the last couple decades as things once considered fringe and negative to society have become more and more commonplace and normalized. Matt & Mo are breaking down gray areas, as believers. How we should respond to a world that looks less and less like the Christian Ideal that we learned as children, but instead is becoming more and more convoluted.
Radio Matt & Mo discuss the gray areas in the world around us and how we should respond to them as they begin to enter church doors. (This one gets a little serious.)

You step on to a bus and see that the woman in front of you has shoulder length bleach blond hair and a red hair band holding it into a ponytail. Nothing weird there. But then you notice the two woman in each next seat forward is the same size woman, with the same hair, the same color hair band… even the same color shirts peeking over the top of the seatbacks. You chuckle, “Glitch in the Matrix” you say, and brush it off, fondly remembering that 1999 movie and moving on with your life. But what if that movie was created specifically to make you laugh off the idea as silly… by those OUTSIDE of the Matrix? This week, Radio Matt & Mo are examining the effect the Matrix series had on society, the growing scientific idea that us being in a simulation is not only possible, but likely, and how the Simulation Theory could actually be Creationism in disguise.

Nostalgia is a powerful feeling. It has the power to transport you back in time, reliving exhilarating memories of our childhoods, feeling all the feelings that brought us so much joy in the past, spending hours re-walking the steps we took back then – all in the blink of an eye upon hearing a familiar word, catching a familiar scent, or seeing a teenager wearing the same thing I wore in high school like it’s a brand new trend.

In the last few years, it feels that it is more and more difficult, unacceptable, or even shameful to simply ask questions, compare sources, or seek a clearer picture on something that others call “settled.” In our fear of misinformation, we are often force-fed information with little encouragement to do our own research. Whether this comes from the White House or the pulpit, this is a dangerous way of life. This week, Radio Matt & Mo discuss why it’s important and beneficial to question things – be it authority, the culture, or even God.
