A pastor, a Trekker, and a Star Wars fan walk into a recording session... That’s the set-up for this series which explores the intersection of religion and science fiction. The three hosts -- Drew, Dan, and Pastor Dave -- discuss a particular theological topic as it morphs through the sci fi realm. Well, Pastor Dave tries to keep Drew and Dan focused on one particular topic. He really tries. Their mothers should have warned him.

Episode 46: When SciFi Means Business
Sunday Jul 28, 2024

In which the 3-Ds make it their business to analyze how business is portrayed in science fiction. It typically goes along two lines: the megacorp (like the Weyland-Yutani Corp in Alien) or a hodgepodge of independent traders (like Star Trek's Cyrano Jones). Along the way, we debate whether the Ferengi are actually capitalists; after all, they don't have any corporations -- they just worship money as individuals. So wouldn't that mean money is their religion, not their business?
And in our game, we answer the question every Christian nerd has pondered since 1977: is Jesus a Trekkie or a Star Wars fan?
