TLTS Ep. 25 | From Subculture Soup to Holy Orthodoxy | Interview w/ Synaxis!

Cloud of Witnesses Radio

Thrilled to have Synaxis Podcast, Jordan and Joshua, as our CWJS guests!
Ever wished you could navigate the labyrinth of pop culture with an Orthodox Christian compass? Buckle up because we're journeying into an intriguing and unexpected world where we apply the wisdom of Orthodoxy to pop culture, literature, philosophy, and even occultism and conspiracy theories. Jordan and Joshua (of Synaxis Podcast), the dynamic duo who have bonded over shared interests in these fascinating areas, will be our trusted guides. They will share reflections on their friendship, their individual journeys to Orthodoxy, and how these have influenced their perspectives on Christianity.
Synaxis Podcast an edge over your average Orthodox podcasts. Our backgrounds are steeped in the subcultures of punk, conspiracy theories, and occultism. This influences how we view and analyze popular culture through an Orthodox lens. With a world increasingly drawn to dark themes, we offer a fresh perspective, often inspired by the teachings of Father Seraphim Rose. He's our California torchbearer, our blessed beacon guiding lost Westerners.
Our podcast journey has been far from ordinary. We've traversed topics as diverse as the suffering of Christians in Eastern Europe and Russia, to the uncanny world of UFOs, to the enigma of the Romanian prison camps. In this journey, we've highlighted the often overlooked Eastern Christian narrative in the face of Western myopia. This episode also delves into the controversial concept of perennialism, exploring its relationship with Christianity. It's a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of this idea and the impact on our spiritual paths. We're excited to continue exploring uncharted territories, with you, our fellow travelers.
Every episode is recorded, and produced by our team of Orthodox Christians here in sunny San Diego, California! So brew yourself a hot cup of tea, grab yourself some popcorn, and enjoy this edifying continuation of the conversation on today's episode of: Cloud of Witnesses: Thinking like the Saints!
