Matt,

I think you meant to comment on a different post, but your comment is received nonetheless. I think your critique is fair enough, but the principal concern of RMR is to review the theology and worldview behind the media. Perhaps the title isn’t as descriptive as it could be, but ARORTAPAPBAICRW is a little long. 🙂 We’ve also moved the philosophy talk off to the new Philosophy for Theologians program.

however, as a reformed Christian and professional artist i am not convinced that this is a podcast whose subject matter can rightly be called ‘reformed media review.’ it’s more of a ‘ a review of reformed theology and philosophy as presented by theologians and in contemporary reformed writings’.

i don’t intend this to be read in a harsh way, but i think Mr Bucey and others deserve to hear my honesty – it doesn’t seem at all apparent (to me) that anyone on this podcast (from what i’ve so far listened to, whether host or guest) has the experience or credentials to rightfully review what today is collectively called media.

in other words, i think this podcast is abundantly capable of reviewing the theology of media, but not so much on reviewing the media of theology. a simplified but important distinction!

i would suggest bringing in media practioners, professionals and producers of a reformed persuasion if you wish to make this into the sort of podcast that would present to its listeners a fuller discerning understanding of media and its applications, philosophies, and connections to reformed theology.

having that said, i thoroughly enjoy this podcast, and i look forward to its future productions! it is only out of an encouraged and respectful heart that i write this, so that if it be the Lord’s Will it will even more fully bless others with its insightful conversations and debates.
