In Shady Theology, they wade into deep waters with annihilationism and conditional immortality—what they are, why people believe them, and why they matter. Then it’s game time with a New Year’s Sermon Mad-Lib, where things go off the rails fast. Finally, in Pester the Pastor, they tackle Preachers & Sneakers—asking how much pastors should spend on clothes, cars, and homes, and where wisdom, optics, and integrity collide. It’s sharp, funny, and theologically spicy—welcome to Not the Sermon. 00:00:18 – Skybalon: Roasting listeners’ Wrapped & a Sermonot gift 00:10:07 – Shady Theology: Annihilation & conditional immortality 00:26:10 – Game: A New Year’s sermon Mad-Lib 00:34:31 – Pester the Pastor: How much should pastors spend on clothes, cars, and homes?","meta_description":"In this episode, Jamie & Eric kick things off with Shooting the Skybalon, roasting listeners’ Spotify Wrapped results and reacting to a mysterious Ser…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2977,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/not-the-sermon-6725013/episodes/episode-95-fresh-year-fresh-heresy/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/not-the-sermon-6725013/episode-95-fresh-year-fresh-heresy.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
