Lagralane Spirits
LAGRALANE SPIRITS
close

We’re Jason and Yvonne Lee. Husband, wife, father, mother, actors, producers, seekers, educators, and explorers of identity. Lagralane Spirits is a delicious podcast where we invite you into our living room for a family spirit symposium, a real-talk meeting of the minds over reverent cocktails. Each week we examine an important topic related to identity that not only is about our own history and how we identify, but is also rooted in social issues, historical events and even a little genealogy. We get into some heavy stuff that often needs the light lift of a cocktail. Therefore, each episode includes a curated cocktail that we then share with a guest as we ask them their “Cocktail Confession” in relation to that episode’s topic. It’s a lot of fun! So, join us as we dive back in time to examine the legacy of our ancestors that have shaped the stories of our shared cultural history. By the way, you can find all of our original cocktail recipes and show notes on lagralanespirits.org. And as always, please enjoy responsibly!

Forced To Flee
FORCED TO FLEE
close

Persecution. Violence. War… Forced To Flee, the new podcast from UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, tells the extraordinary stories of people who lived through some of the most tumultuous events of the past 70 years. The story of the mother who fled Vietnam by sea and fell into the hands of pirates, and of the orphaned schoolboy who found his calling thanks to a disposable camera. The story of the Venezuelan musicians who found hope with a new orchestra, and of the daughter of refugees who joined the rescue effort during Rwanda’s genocide. And stories of the many humanitarian workers who for seven decades have endeavoured to protect the forcibly displaced. Over seven episodes, we revisit some of the major emergencies of the post-war that have forced millions of people to leave their homes in search of safety and peace.We discover why they fled, what they endured, and what happened next. And as UNHCR and the 1951 Refugee Convention both mark their 70th year, we also look to the future and ask how the world must respond to record levels of forced human displacement.

TRUTH OR LITERATURE

The study of common literature is often about selling literature, putting its author on a pedestal at the expense of serious critical thinking. Good critical thinking about literature is neither idolatrous nor iconoclastic, but instead evaluates content for it alignment with Truth. This podcast discusses literature as it relates to the Truth of Christianity. Its companion blog at TruthorLiterature.blogspot.com is a transcript and list of references for this podcast.
