A Weaver’s Journey of Art, Advocacy, and Belonging — from WEAVE: The Social Fabric Project
In this edition of our special Weavers series, we sit down with Nikki Harris—fiber artist, mother, advocate, and community connector from Baltimore, Maryland.

She shares her journey from self-taught fiber artist to founding HGE Designs, and from 911 dispatcher to autism advocate with Pathfinders for Autism.
This conversation delves into what it truly means to create space—for healing, for connection, and for community. Nikki opens up about raising her son Roman, navigating systems as a caregiver, and the spiritual resilience it takes to serve while healing herself.

May you find the courage to create space — for yourself, for others, and for a future woven with care, connection, and quiet strength.

A deeply clarifying conversation about fear, faith, and how Christians can reclaim a healthier way of engaging in public life.
In this ICYMI release, Corey revisits his thoughtful and timely dialogue with Curtis Chang—public theologian, founder of Redeeming Babel, and co-creator (with David French, Dr. Russell Moore and Nancy French) of The After Party, a project devoted to healing the political fractures tearing churches and friendships apart.
Curtis explains why so much of our modern polarization isn’t actually about facts, but untended anxiety posing as conviction. He lays out how Christians can cultivate moral confidence without moral combat, why conspiracy theories often function as emotional painkillers, and what it looks like to move from combatant, cynic, or exhausted bystander toward the spiritual posture of a disciple.
If you’re new to TP&R thanks to Podbean, Overcast, or a friend’s recommendation, this conversation is a grounded, hopeful entry point into what we’re about.

[00:00] Why Curtis Chang’s work matters in this political moment[00:02] Anxiety as the hidden driver of polarization[00:06] Conspiracy theories as emotional “certainty drugs”[00:12] Faith, history, and what Christians misunderstand about the Resurrection[00:17] Cynicism, disengagement, and reclaiming hope[00:21] The origins of The After Party and its vision for church renewal[00:27] “Disappearings,” broken relationships, and the danger of social withdrawal[00:38] Zealots, tax collectors, and Jesus’s political imagination[00:42] The spiritual power of shared meals[00:47] Combatants, Cynics, the Exhausted — and the path toward “Disciple”[00:55] The hunger for a better way to live out our faith in public
🧠 Key Takeaways
• Anxiety drives more polarization than ideology. When fear is unexamined, it disguises itself as righteous certainty.• Conspiracy theories offer false relief. They provide temporary emotional clarity, not truth.• Jesus models a politics of proximity. Tax collectors and zealots shared the same table — not because they agreed, but because He held them together.• Shared meals heal what arguments can’t. Embodied community diffuses fear and restores relationship.• Discipleship is the way forward. Hope + humility > combat, cynicism, and exhaustion.
💬 Notable Quotes
“Conspiracy theories are like Xanax for Christian anxiety.”“Jesus formed a political community that held zealots and tax collectors in the same circle.”“We need to recover the how of politics — the spiritual posture — not just the what.”“You can’t heal the world if you’ve disappeared the people in it.”

🎙️ May your next conversation be a little braver — and a little more grounded in hope and humility.

Forget what you think you know about religion in America. The latest research from Pew reveals a story that’s more complex—and more hopeful—than the headlines suggest.
Corey sits down with Gregory A. Smith, who’s spent over two decades studying how faith and identity shape American public life. In this no-fluff conversation, Greg unpacks the surprising stabilization of religious affiliation, the myths about Gen Z’s spiritual life, and how a well-worded survey can teach us more than a pundit ever could. They also explore the emotional courage it takes to study religion without evangelizing it—and why 80% of Christians say you don’t have to agree about Trump to be a “good Christian.”
🧭 If you’re new to TP&R, this is an eye-opening intro to how data, faith, and civic life intersect—grounded in transparency, humility, and curiosity.

[00:00] Meet Greg Smith — and why Pew’s research matters in polarized times[00:04] From political science to religion & politics: Greg’s unexpected career path[00:07] Personal roots: Growing up Catholic, noticing politics in the pews[00:12] Designing good survey questions: clarity, neutrality, and transparency[00:20] The art & science of polling: how sample sizes actually work[00:34] The rise of the “nones” and the plateau of religious decline[00:40] What the pandemic revealed about faith, habits & resilience[00:49] Gender, politics, and religion: surprising shifts in who’s leaving faith[00:54] Can good Christians disagree about Donald Trump? (Short answer: yes!)[01:01] Pew’s mission of nonpartisanship—and how to spot bad data[01:05] Talking across differences: assume good intent, ask good questions
🧠 Key Takeaways
• Faith is changing—but not disappearing. After decades of decline, American religiosity has surprisingly leveled off.• Young people aren’t flocking to church—but they’re not abandoning it at the same rate anymore either.• Survey design matters. A question’s wording can shape the narrative. Pew’s commitment to transparency lets the data speak for itself.• Data ≠ dogma. Pew doesn’t advocate policy or religion—they provide tools for understanding.• People surprise us. 80% of U.S. Christians agree: good Christians can disagree about Donald Trump.
💬 Notable Quotes
“If you want to measure change, you cannot change the measures.”“Religion’s decline is real—but in the last five years, it's stopped declining.”“Being transparent doesn’t just build trust; it lets people decide for themselves.”“Our surveys aren’t about converting anyone. They’re about understanding everyone.”

🎙️ May your next conversation be grounded in good questions—and guided by honest curiosity.

A luminous conversation about leadership, love, and what spiritual courage looks like in a polarized age.
In this ICYMI episode, Corey revisits his deeply moving conversation with Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde, Episcopal Bishop of Washington and one of the most trusted—and most tested—faith leaders in American public life. With striking humility and clarity, Bishop Budde reflects on her faith journey, her response to political turbulence, her viral inauguration sermon, and the inner practices that sustain grace under pressure.
🧭 If you’re new to TP&R thanks to Podbean, Overcast, or a friend’s recommendation, this episode is a beautiful entry point: vulnerable, grounded, and full of moral imagination.

[00:00] Corey welcomes new listeners & frames why Bishop Budde matters today[00:02] A nonlinear, grace-filled faith journey: altar calls, questions & belonging[00:07] The Episcopal Church as “middle C” — finding a spiritual home[00:13] Love, mercy, and the discipline of offering grace under pressure[00:21] “Moving toward the light when it’s still dark”: Easter, trauma & renewal[00:26] Her 2025 inaugural sermon, public backlash & what real pastoral courage requires[00:36] Navigating political polarization inside the church[00:43] The emotional & spiritual toll of public criticism — and how she stays grounded[00:54] Hope vs. despair: why older generations must model courage for the young[01:00] The TP&R Question: how to talk across difference without losing one another
🧠 Key Takeaways
• Courage is a practice. Grace isn’t temperament—it’s cultivated through discipline, prayer, and self-awareness.• Resurrection starts small. Healing—personal or societal—often begins as “the faintest stirrings of light.”• Humanity first. Behind every political category (immigrant, LGBTQ, federal worker) are real people with real stories.• Leadership invites backlash. Staying grounded requires boundaries, humility, and community support.• Hope is generational stewardship. We don’t burden the next generation with our despair—we model resilience.
💬 Notable Quotes
“Something happened that night at the altar — an ache in my heart I couldn’t ignore.”“If it’s not about love, it’s not about God.”“Resurrection begins in darkness, with the smallest flicker of new life.”“People can disagree with me; they are not entitled to harm me.”“I will not ask my children to carry the weight of my despair.”

🎙️May your next conversation be a little braver — and a little more rooted in love.

One of the clearest, most necessary voices on Ukraine, democracy, and what the West keeps getting wrong.
In this ICYMI episode, Corey revisits his most recent conversation with Dr. Alexander Vindman — retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel, former Director for European Affairs on the National Security Council, and author of The Folly of Realism: How the West Deceived Itself About Russia and Betrayed Ukraine.
From the thousand-year struggle for Ukrainian sovereignty to why U.S. administrations repeatedly misread Russia, Vindman explains how we arrived at this moment — and what a values-based foreign policy (“neo-idealism”) could mean for America’s future. He also opens up about family history, his brother Eugene’s first term in Congress, and what gives him both concern and hope in a destabilized world.
🧭 If you're new to TP&R through Podbean, Overcast, or a friend’s recommendation, this episode is a timely, clear-eyed introduction: personal, historically grounded, urgently relevant, and we even have some fun!

[00:00] Why Alexander Vindman’s voice has become essential to TP&R[00:03] Eugene Vindman’s first term in Congress — governing from a purple district[00:11] Lessons from military families, public service, and bipartisan problem-solving[00:17] Reconnecting with family in Ukraine — personal history meets geopolitics[00:24] The thousand-year struggle for Ukrainian sovereignty[00:34] Russia’s imperial narrative and why the West kept buying it[00:41] Nuclear weapons, U.S. policy missteps, and the legacy of denuclearization[00:51] Neo-Idealism: Why values must guide U.S. foreign policy[00:56] What worries Vindman about Trump 2.0 — and where he still finds hope[01:08] The TP&R Question: How to talk across deep differences
🧠 Key Takeaways
History matters. Ukraine’s fight for independence is centuries old — and central to understanding today’s war.
The West misread Russia. U.S. administrations succumbed to “hopes and fears,” offering accommodation instead of strategy.
Nuclear exceptionalism distorts policy. Fear of escalation often hands leverage to bad actors.
Values are interests. Neo-Idealism argues that long-term U.S. strategy must be rooted in democratic principles.
Domestic health = foreign strength. The fight for democracy abroad is inseparable from the one at home.
💬 Notable Quotes
“Russia, absent Ukraine, ceases to be an empire. With Ukraine, it becomes one.”
“We succumbed to misplaced hopes and fears. We thought if we treated Russia as a partner, it would behave like one.”
“Values aren’t sentimental — they’re strategic.”
“You can find common ground by talking about family. That’s where our shared concerns lie.”

🎙️ May your next conversation be a little braver — and a little clearer about what’s at stake.

One of the most compelling personal and political stories in Congress today — raw, principled, and deeply human.
In this ICYMI episode, Corey revisits his conversation with Congressman Ritchie Torres, who represents New York’s 15th district in the Bronx. With refreshing candor, Torres shares his journey from public housing and poverty to becoming the first openly LGBTQ elected official from the Bronx and one of the most forthright voices in American politics.
He discusses the values that shape his independence, his commitment to social justice, why he proudly defends Israel despite intense backlash, and the inner tools he uses to face personal and political challenges — all while staying focused on the people he serves.
🧭 If you’re new to TP&R thanks to Podbean, Overcast, or a friend’s recommendation, this episode is a powerful entry point: personal, honest, and courageous.

Independence matters. He resists ideological pressure to stay focused on practical solutions.
Mental health is not taboo. Rep. Torres openly discusses depression and how therapy and medication help him lead.
Courage isn’t comfortable. Taking principled stands—especially on Israel—can invite hostility but builds credibility.
Pluralism is essential. Democracy thrives when we resist extremism and practice intellectual humility.
💬 Notable Quotes
“Before I’m a congressman, I’m the son of my mother.”“The greatest threat to liberal democracy isn’t the extremes—it’s the cowardice of the center.”“Mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of. It’s something to talk about.”“Pluralism should not be seen as a weakness, but a strength.”

🎙️ May your next conversation be a little braver — and a little more grounded in good faith.

One of the most clarifying conversations we’ve had about conscience, character, and navigating our divisions with integrity.
In this ICYMI release, Corey revisits his conversation with David French — New York Times columnist, attorney, veteran, and one of the most thoughtful voices on religious liberty, civic virtue, polarization, and how principled disagreement can strengthen rather than destroy a pluralistic society.
David unpacks how he thinks about political persuasion, why courage and humility are twin civic virtues, what it means to disagree in good faith, how social media distorts our moral instincts, and why democracy requires both conviction and restraint.
If you’re new to TP&R thanks to Podbean, Overcast, or a friend’s recommendation, this episode is an ideal introduction: rigorous, nuanced, grounded in lived experience, and rooted in a deep belief in the dignity of difference.

🧠 Key Takeaways
Pluralism is a moral discipline. It requires seeing opponents as neighbors, not enemies.
Arguments should be invitations, not indictments. Good-faith disagreement is a civic good.
Identity often overwhelms evidence. Social media amplifies fear, outrage, and tribal reflexes.
Religious liberty protects everyone. David explains why conscience rights are essential in a diverse democracy.
💬 Notable Quotes
“You cannot have a functioning democracy unless people are free to disagree in good faith.”
“Pluralism is hard — but the alternative is worse.”
“If your goal is persuasion, performative outrage is self-defeating.”
“Humility is not weakness; it’s a civic virtue.”

May your next conversation be a little braver — and a little more grounded in good faith. 🎙️✨

One of the most essential conversations we’ve had — on authoritarianism, influence campaigns, and what it takes to defend democracy.
In this ICYMI release, Corey revisits his conversation with Anne Applebaum — Pulitzer Prize–winning historian, staff writer at The Atlantic, and one of the world’s leading experts on modern authoritarianism.
Anne explains how autocrats collaborate across borders, why propaganda spreads so easily, how economic complicity in the West has empowered illiberal regimes, and what ordinary citizens can actually do to strengthen democratic culture.
If you’re new to TP&R thanks to Podbean, Overcast or were recommended this program by a friend, this conversation is the perfect introduction: rigorous, accessible, global in scope, and grounded in the belief that democratic values are worth defending.

[00:00] Corey welcomes new listeners & frames the ICYMI series[00:02] Anne’s path from studying history to analyzing modern authoritarianism[00:08] How Russia, China, Iran, and others collaborate in “Autocracy, Inc.”[00:15] Why propaganda works — and how autocrats weaponize fear[00:22] Western financial and technological complicity[00:28] Ukraine, disinformation, and why this moment is globally defining[00:36] How everyday people can defend democratic culture
🧠 Key Takeaways
Authoritarianism is a network. Modern autocrats copy one another’s tactics and often cooperate.
Propaganda targets identity, not facts. Fear and belonging drive political behavior more than information.
Democratic decline isn’t inevitable. Transparency, civic courage, and local engagement matter.
The fight begins at home. Repairing democratic culture starts with relationships, curiosity, and shared work.
💬 Notable Quotes
“Their common enemy isn’t each other — it’s liberal democracy.”
“You weaken a society by making people fear one another.”
“We enabled this system when we let dark money and technology flow freely.”
“You can’t defend democracy if you don’t understand what’s threatening it.”
