One of our challenges is religion is very fraught in our moment and society. It can be a very difficult thing to work on and work with.

If you think about podcasting as teaching, you can do more for people. You can actually learn and teach people.

If you are convincing 200 or 50 people to listen to you and your scholarship, don't loose sight of what that means, and that it is an educational service. These projects are helpful.

Things are not normal anywhere, this isn't a local problem to just the study of religion. The tragic opportunity is how are we going to rebuild many forms of scholarship and the pursuit of knowledge.

If scholarship fades, it can impact podcasts. We will have to shift and change how we provide reliable, scholarly information to listeners.

Accessibility and portability. It's about fleshing out and expanding our offerings to all people and expanding conversations rather than replacing traditional scholarship.

I don't see it replacing religious studies programs, or solve a problem of it. I see it as getting the scholarship to all kinds of people.
