 "Our memories make us who we are." - Project 77 Netflix paid big $$$ for Next Gen.  And why not?  The movie has all the talent in the world involved and a built-in fanbase from one of China's most popular - and infamous - websites.  The movie has a lot to say about some pretty big ideas: how technology remakes humanity in it own image, what relationship exists between our memories and our identities. But is this a movie that holds up in the light of God's revelation of Himself in Christ?  Jared and Jeff give Next Gen the full Pop Culture Coram Deo workout to answer that question. And on the way they do a deep dive on The Predator, WB's continual weirdness with the DCEU, and try their hand at casting an actor to play the Joker who can hold up to Nicholson and Ledger's precedent. So hit that download button, press play, and lets get going on the latest from The Pop Culture Coram Deo Podcast!

Ever find yourself thinking about the deeper questions a movie poses long after the credits roll, or caught in a conversation about the moral universe of your favorite TV series? That’s the space where The Pop Culture Coram Deo Podcast! lives. We don’t just review the latest releases; we sit with them, peeling back the layers of story, character, and visual language to see what they might reveal about truth, beauty, and the human condition. The phrase "coram Deo" means "before the face of God," and that’s the lens through which we examine everything from blockbuster franchises to hidden indie gems. Each episode is a thoughtful dialogue, a deep dive into the art we consume, asking how these narratives reflect, distort, or yearn for a greater story. You’ll hear us grapple with the themes and craftsmanship of television and film, not with easy answers, but with curiosity and a desire to understand. This podcast is for anyone who loves pop culture but also feels that itch to look beyond the surface, to find meaning in the midst of entertainment. Join us for conversations that are as engaging and substantive as the art they discuss.
