Why don't cats ever smile? Shouldn't eggs last longer than a month? How come turkeys don't know camping etiquette? Have you ever sat there—delighting in a sip on your coffee—only to be interrupted by robin refuse—worm, feces, dirt? How did things get so screwed up? Surely it couldn't have been by accident. The Fall is real, and we can see, hear, smell, taste, and feel it all around us.

In this ninth episode of season four, on common grace in culture, Chris and Kyle continue their mini-series on Alfred Hitchcock films. This episode they analyze Hitchcock's film, The Birds. You can make hats and tweed jackets and Thanksgiving dinner all you want. But you're still going to wrestle with original sin, ad hoc ethics and eschatological implications. How's that going for ya? We got you.

Wouldn't it be ideal and idyllic to live in a society in which we don't have any secrets? Any and all information would just float out there in the ether for the taking—even by apes, angels, and aliens. Silly mistakes could hang on drying racks for the whole world to see. Everyone would know your business, and there would be no judgment. No shame. No pity.

In this eight episode of season four, on common grace in culture, Chris and Kyle continue their mini-series on Alfred Hitchcock films. This episode they analyze Hitchcock's film, I Confess. Christians have to tell the truth—because Christ is the Truth (John 14:6). But the whole truth? And quickly? Perhaps there's room to be forthright and precise without spilling your guts. Which might actually bring hope to a community.

There's the reply guy who believes it’s innocuous but is totally being extra. And the baddie who accepted the promposal and made all the chaperones shake their heads. And the braggadocious Brad who was caught in 4K kicking that poor old man’s Buick, and then blamed it on the bruzz. Oh, and the neckbeard who, for a few chortles from his tribe, revels in rage-bait and ratcheting up online smoke.

In this seventh episode of season four, Chris and Kyle record an "excast" on why we need more repentance in our Republic (and a lot less regret in the Church). Not the kind of repentance that just feels sorry for a wrong done or wallows in regret over sin. No—the kind of repentance that turns people from their selfish ways to their Savior. The kind that makes room for others and draws them near.
