Star Wars, The Great American Cultural Epic with Special Guest Joe Davis!

Author: The Pop Culture Coram Deo Podcast March 31, 2020 Duration: 1:22:31
The Iliad, The Odyssey, The Aeneid, Star Wars.  Star Wars?  Star Wars. Jeff has long been hoping to get Joe Davis on the podcast to talk about this particular idea and the physical-media release day of The Rise of Skywalker seemed like the perfect time take the jump. Hit that download button, press play, and let's get going on why Star Wars is for Americans what The Odyssey was for Greeks.

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.
