The show usually is recorded in a pub--that's why there is some background noise on occasion. The topics can vary widely seeing as the Pugsters have different spheres of knowledge and interest, but common themes which appear regularly include the transcendence of God and the meaningfulness of His creation.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-08T18:19:49.635117+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-theology-pugcast-696088"},"episode":{"title":"Matthew B.

Crawford (author of Shop Class as Soulcraft) from his Substack entitled: Craftsmanship in the culture industry. The event that prompted the essay is the bid by Netflix to buy Warner Brothers (the film studio). What particularly interests Crawford is something broader, the decay of craftsmanship in our world, and what &quot;managerialism&quot; has to do with that. If you care about film, or just craftsmanship generally speaking we think you will enjoy the conversation.
