The resurrection of idiopod is finally here after a nearly 2 year hiatus. With the friendly and amicable parting of ways for co-hosting purposes with former co-host, Shane Glover, due to simply the changes of life, T. J. Stone returns with his friend and new co-host, Destini Love. In our first podcast together we loosely talk about "Becoming" and some of the things we have been drawn towards and away from in our ever-changing journeys towards whoever it is we have been made to become.

No longer an exclusive long-form interview format, we're shaking things up a bit with conversations we want you to join in on. Find us on Facebook and Instagram and soon to be on Youtube. We will still bring in guests from time to time, but now it's more to have conversations rather than just exclusively hearing their story of how they got to where they are. Story will always be important to us on Idiopod though, and we will have our moments to deep dive further into people's stories where it's appropriate.

In a departure from our usual long form interview format, Shane and TJ take it back to what started them on this podcast journey in the first place, a deep conversation that seamlessly weaves in and out of the intersections of life and faith. Today's topic is HOPE. What is it? How do we define it? Is it possible to have hope despite your circumstances and not just in a future outcome, but right now in this moment? Join the conversation with us as we wrestle with a concept that is fundamental to the human condition and yet is difficult to quantify, measure, or prove. What are you hoping for? What are you putting your hope in?
