Dan Koch

Hey everyone. Today on the pod we have Dan Koch. You’ll remember Dan if you’ve listened to the intro episode of Carry the Fire. Dan is a former host of the Depolarize! podcast and the current host of the amazing podcast You Have Permission where he seeks to give people permission to seek answers to good questions that may have been out of bounds in their formative faith communities. Our conversation was wide-ranging and meandering in the best way. We talk about certain similarities in any mass social movement whether left or right, and we discuss the learned nature of language and it’s function as a social signifier in groups. I also ask Dan to critique my thinking a bit as far as my worries about giving platforms to those who I disagree with in key ways and why I may be doing more harm than good in my approach.
