Summary
In this episode, Jamie & Eric kick things off with Shooting the Skybalon, where Jamie admits to using a church member as a lock-up wingman to avoid closing duties, and the guys talk about how pastors have quietly become full-time content machines. In Pester the Pastor, they wrestle with Christians and media consumption, asking what a healthy relationship with the digital world actually looks like. In Odd News, they cover a strange article about dogs learning vocabulary and habits from their owners. Finally, in Shady Theology, they dig into the clergy vs. laity divide and where that line came from in the first place. It’s honest, weird, and uncomfortably relevant—welcome to Not the Sermon. 00:00:15 – Skybalon: Lock-up wingman & holy content machines 00:11:07 – Pester the Pastor: Media consumption 00:24:51 – Odd News: Dogs learning vocabulary from their owners 00:35:29 – Shady Theology: The clergy vs. laity divide
