Why should we read more short stories?

Getting hype for our Book Fair next year in Charlotte, NC! Hosts, Will Rose, TJ Blackwell, Christian Ashley, and Joshua Noel discuss 5 short stories they read recently and what makes short-form story telling so special! Each of the hosts picked one short story for us all to read, and author Alyssa Wong chose one of their own works for us to include as well!

.

What are examples of literacy? Why is reading important? What is the Fisher Queen about? How has the Church made excuses for awful behaviors in the past? Where is the line between the animal kingdom and mankind? What is the trigger warning for Galatea Madeline Miller? What is the theme of Galatea by Madeline Miller? Who was Galatea in myth? What is the main idea of A Sound of Thunder? What is the point of view of A Sound of Thunder? What happened at the end of A Sound of Thunder? Why is Bel and the Dragon not in the Bible? Is Bel and the Dragon Based on a true story? Is there a real dragon that Daniel meets? What is the message of All Tomorrows? What is the plot of the book All Tomorrows? Are there any humans left in All Tomorrows? We discuss all this and more in this one! Join in the conversation with us on Discord now!

Systematic Geekology

Our show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective. We do not try to put Jesus into all our favorite stories, but rather we try to ask the questions the IPs are asking, then addressing those questions from our perspective. We are not all ordained, but we are the Priests to the Geeks, in the sense that we try to serve as mediators between the cultures around our favorite fandoms and our faith communities.

About the Podcast

Systematic Geekology
Priests to the Geeks
This is not a trap! (Don't listen to Admiral Ackbar this time.) We are just some genuine geeks, hoping to explore some of our favorite content from a Christian lense that we all share. We will be focusing on the geek stuff - Star Wars, Marvel, LOTR, Harry Potter, etc. - but we will be asking questions like: "Do Clones have souls?" "Is Superman truly a Christ-figure?" or "Is it okay for Christians to watch horror films?"
