This is a throwback episode. The old interview with Damien Jurado had been lost until recently, so I packed in a new intro and preserved the Tall Skinny at the end and here it is for you. Be sure to buy a book and support me and the podcast. Also check out the new stuff Damien has done since this interview, here are the original show notes”

We talk to Damien Jurado this week and that is exciting. Damien is one of my favorite singer/songwriters and we were graced with his time this week. As always check out our blogs (nicholasfiedler.com/blog and iamjoshbrown.com/blog)

ep 157 – Rachel Held Evans, Evolving in Monkey Town

admin — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 13:20:32 +0000

In this interview, Josh interviews Rachel Held Evans, author of Evolving in Monkey Town. The two talk bout Rachel’s life growing up in fundamentalist Christianity and her process of encountering new questions from unsuspecting places; namely other people’s stories. This is a fun and light-hearted podcast that is surely to connect with anyone who’s looking for a conversation about how to handle faith when all sure footing seems to be slipping away. Indeed, as Rachel jokes, this is a Donald Miller kind of read.

And while you are buying books, don’t forget to pick up Nick’s book, The Hopeful Skeptic. Every time he sells a copy, his bones grow back together a little more.

Oh and listening on to the podcast, my favorite part is at the end when Josh says, “so you can get the book at rachel held evans. . . or somewhere.” Or somewhere? That’s classic.
