The Kate and Colby Show

The Kate & Colby Show is joined LIVE by best-selling author, activist, and personal hero of the hosts, Brian McLaren. Brian joined us to talk about his most recent book, “Faith After Doubt: Why Your Beliefs Stopped Working and What to Do About it.” We had an incredible time talking with him about the stages of faith, the important role of doubt, and how it is that so much of our country feels massively divided.

During the “What’s Giving you Life” segment, Colby shares about his recent losing streak at all things. The Kate & Colby Show goes LIVE on Wednesdays at 7pm Pacific on YouTube and Facebook. Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your pods. Thanks for being our PodPham!

This week’s show introduces two new segments. First is our “Ten Questions About” segment, and this week we’re asking ten questions about Christmas. Then, “Cocktails with Colby” kicks off with Colby showing us how to make The Scofflaw. Yum!

No one is “grateful” for the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent quarantine life. AND, also, there have been things that have happened during—and as a result of—it that, well, we might really be thankful for. In this week’s show, Kate and Colby discuss navigating that tension. Of honoring and holding space for life’s Lemons, but also being grateful for the Lemonade. PLUS: We ask for your help deciding how much Christmas music is enough/too much?

On this week's live Kate & Colby Show we welcome special guest Ben Grace! Ben is a singer-songwriter based out of San Diego who's first full length album, "As if Words Could Heal the Wounds" just recently dropped. It's a gorgeous exploration of love, loss, and the complexities of the human soul. Plus, Kate and Colby check in with you about how your hair is doing; what is saving their soul right now; and ask you to help them see who is more/less normal when it comes to SMELLS. Tune in LIVE on Wednesdays at 7pm Pacific.

It’s the night after the 2020 Election, we sat down, turned on the camera, and invited you—our Pod Pham—to sit and be with us. Thanks for sharing the space with us as we shared how the watching of the election results impacted our souls. Plus, we shared some things that are steadying our souls at the moment: For Kate, “The is Us” on ABC. For Colby, Rob Bell’s new book, “Everything is Spiritual.” Join us LIVE on Wednesdays at 7pm on our Youtube or Facebook pages.

Hey Pod Pham! This is our PREMIERE episode of The Kate & Colby Show: LIVE! We’ve decided to start live-streaming our podcasts, Wednesday nights at 7pm on YouTube and Facebook. Please join in, it’s a ton of fun! For the podcasts, then, we’ll take the audio from the Live Show and put it here in your normal channels. For this first episode, Kate and Colby explore their different reactions to John Piper’s recent article in which he criticized Christians for supporting Trump. You can watch the show online, or enjoy the podcast audio here!

Maybe you, like us, grew up in a religious context where “justice” was basically just something God would deal with—and much later down the road. In this episode, we share how our evolving beliefs led us to understand that seeking justice HERE and NOW is very, very much a part of what it means to have and do Faith. If God hears the cries of the oppressed, and if we are how God moves in the world, then its up to us to do something about injustice.

Last week we described faith as, “The things we choose to believe, which inform how we choose to act.” Some people weren’t digging our use of the word “choice.” So in this message, we explore how much agency do we really have in terms of what we believe and how we act. Is it really our “choice?” Such a fascinating conversation.

Can we talk about FAITH for a bit? What IS it? Why do we have it? How do we practice it? In this episode, we share a talk that we gave together at Sojourn Grace Collective exploring two lexical categories of the word faith: as a noun and a verb. Sometimes we need to swing the pendulum from one usage to another as we round out what it means to have/do faith.

Our religious heritage taught us to mistrust our emotions, thus creating a whirlwind of shame and confusion. In this, our final of a three part series on emotional wellbeing and intelligence, we dig in to how Christianity contributed to the emotional stunting of its adherents. Plus, Colby shares about the only 3 times he can remember crying as a kid/teenager/young adult. And Kate takes on the “head vs heart” false dichotomy. The Kate and Colby show is recorded in San Diego and produced by Wholly Living Studios. Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, review! (Song during the episode is “Peace Be Still” by The Hunts)

Myth: Woman have too many emotions, Men have none. Can we talk about that, please? What if ALL humans have deep emotional realities, but women (for a number of reasons) tend to be more connected/in-tune with them than men. Kate shares how society contributes to this dynamic, and Colby shares how he spent most of his life completely detached from his emotions. Plus, have you heard of #Gaslighting? Let’s talk about it. Produced by Wholly Living Studios in San Diego. Subscribe, rate, and review!

Have you ever been told “stop being so emotional?” Or maybe thought, “wow, that person isn’t thinking with their head, they’re being controlled by their emotions.” In this episode, Kate and Colby dive in to this phenomenon, where society often over values what we call “rational thinking” and under vales our emotional capacity. This often shows up in gendered stereotypes as well (which Kate and Colby happen to fulfill rather predictably, so we need to talk about THAT, yes? ;) Subscribe to make sure you get more great content like this, including next week’s Part 2 of this topic!

In this mini-episode, Colby offers a guided meditation focused on identifying and moving through a defensive response. Specially designed for this moment, those of us who are white are being challenged right now to learn better how to listen and learn about racial injustice WITHOUT getting defensive about it. For some of us, that’s easier said than done. We hope this guided meditation will help you in this effort.
