Story: A team that's a bit too small. Some awkward and messy relationship dynamics, including an ex-girlfriend and a confused mom. All that...and God is still merciful at Edinburgh Castle.
Stuff: I talk to Ira, by far the prettiest guest I've had on the show so far (no offense, Aric), to talk about her art and to hear a story about a time God spoke to her through a song that wasn't even in her language -- also involving awkward dating conversations. Plus your feedback on desert island movies.

Episode 7: The Room
No, not an episode about the crummy Tommy Wiseau film, and not a "story" either, but instead a "stuff" -- my musings about a mysterious place called "The Room" that everyone who has lived overseas has had to visit at one time or another.
But before that, we are joined by our guest Aric, who carries across around Texas, the US, and the world and tells another story involving Tom Petty! Go Tom Petty! Aric has a new book out called "Jesus Is Real" that you can buy here: https://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Real-Encountering-Love-God-ebook/dp/B09N5SGKGR/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1643306370&sr=8-3
Plus, we have exciting new about this podcast, a question of the week about desert island movies, and a new track from the podcast's resident composer Joshua. So much to enjoy in eighteen minutes. Go for it!
Episode 6: Tom Petty, Homer Simpson, and God
Two stories foundational to my understanding of the world: A tiring trip across the border into Mexico, a lazy post-work afternoon in front of the TV, and the voice of God speaking through unexpected voices...
Question of the Week: Have you ever had a divine encounter in an unexpected place or with an unexpected voice? Tell us the story!

Episode 5: The Worst Christmas Song Ever
Yes, it's a very special episode of Stories and Stuff with John -- not the kind of special episode where we learn a lesson about drug abuse or kidnapping, but the kind of special where it's more "stuff" than "story", as we go into a deep dive analysis of the chorus of the single worst popular Christmas song ever written.
That plus your feedback, the worst dad joke you'll have heard in a long time, and a new question of the week: what is your favourite cover song? All that and more.

Episode 4: A Two Coast Lie
When I was twenty, I was rebuilding my faith and was put in a service position for the summer that I maybe wasn't mature enough for. A weird conversation with the local handyman planted some serious doubts in my mind. And what happened next...was unexpected.
This is episode four. Hence the title. Today's guest is Adam, who lives in Mauritius, and I talk about my year in music as well as the slightly eerie tale from my summer in northern California.
