I thought of Godcasting and knew it had to be a thing. now you can have a parasocial relationship with a Catholic priest.

quote:


A Religion and spirituality podcast also known as a Godcast, iGod, Cyber Sermon, or Pod Preacher is a genre of podcast that covers topics related to religious and spiritual beliefs and is often done as a sermon, prayer, or reading of a religious text. The genre encompasses all religions and spiritual beliefs, but the most common religion and spirituality podcast topic is Christianity. The genre was influenced by televangelism and early examples of religion and spirituality podcasts included radio shows by televangelists that had been released in a podcast format.

In the United States of America, "Godcast" is a registered trademark of Craig Patchett,[3] founder of The Godcast Network.[2] Patchett's Godcast Network provides a platform for a number of podcasts including his daughter's show "Rachel's Choice."[4][5]

Religion and spirituality podcasts are used as an alternative for attending live sermons or church services and are more easily accessible for people with busy schedules. Podcasting makes it easier for a pastor to connect with their congregation than having an individual conversations with each parishioner. They are also used for evangelizing and proselytizing to larger audiences through an alternative medium that can be easily accessed from around the world—leading to pastors having listenership from every continent and numerous countries other than their own. Tania Ralli of The New York Times compared the beginnings of Christian podcasting to the Christian movement that embraced radio and television—now known as Televangelism. Between early July and late August of 2005, religion and spirituality podcasts on Podcast Alley increased from 171 to 474. Reverend Mark Batterson, the host of National Community Church Audio Podcast, compared the impact of podcasting on the church to that of the printing press on the distribution of Bibles.



According to Olga Kharif of the Bloomberg Businessweek, "Religion and spirituality podcasts have multiplied faster than most other types of podcast programming and have emerged as one of the genre's most popular." In May of 2005, Vonhögen's "Catholic Insider" podcast ranked third on PodcastAlley.com, which hosted 2,884 podcasts at the time. Ryan King and Dan Tripp began a podcast called "Outchurched" as an alternative to ministry work. In 2005, most religious organizations did not have official positions on podcasts, but encouraged spreading the Gospel message regardless of the medium being used. Most religion and spirituality podcasts are made by preachers who want to spread the Gospel to more than just their congregation. Reverend Tim Hohm hosts the podcast "RevTim", which reached an international audience in 2005 despite his relatively small congregation. Reverend John Butler—who worked previously as a radio host and DJ—hosts the "Psalmcast", which contained over 5,000 psalms in 2005.[5]

The "Catholic Insider" and "The Daily Breakfast" delves into pop culture such as Star Wars and Harry Potter to discuss the religious or spiritual messages and themes present in the stories.[1][5]

the same way that being in the covid thread can poison your brain into being a tedious doomer, angling all your opinions about covid as just the opposite of those idiots makes you just as stupidly online-poisoned. of course covid has weird long term effects that we're still learning about. stop basing your opinions on disagreeing with your least favorite sa posters. go outside

This is definitely something that is happening

would love to discuss this more but this thread isn't the place and the covid thread is extremely not the place. i just hope within my lifetime they figure out what the hell is going on with all these chronic pain conditions.

Long Covid and Havana syndrome and chronic Lyme and fibromyalgia and remember morgellons etc and so on are really pretty fascinating and I think the podcast thread is actually a great place to converse, where better for unqualified idiots with opinions based on some poo poo they synthesized from reading a bunch of equally unqualified sources opine on the topic of the day. Just mimicking our parasocial favs and it’s fun

I think a lot of it just comes down to the subjectivity of “how do you feel” and people can feel better or worse for all kinds of reasons and feeling like poo poo is hard to diagnose and sometimes it’s just aging and stress and sometimes it’s some really tricky to diagnose pathogen and sometimes it’s just vibes

As the world slowly crumbles around us we’re all trying to find meaning whether that’s in religion or having a special new kind of disease or liking trump or giving money to beto

that sounds like a good idea. might have to do that myself

got to be lots of funny names and cute little local stories. oh, judolf rictus (29) fell into the great pile of leaves in the park and was found three days later by friends coming from church. he had subsisted on pinecones and millipedes. we hope he will perform well in his pilots ex-am next month. his mother wonders if there had better be a fence, and will bring it up at the town counsil meeting on the fourteenth.
