Send us a text Raise your hand if you love Solo: A Star Wars Story! I know I do. This movie gave us a deeper understanding of two of the most beloved character from Star Wars - Chewbacca and Han Solo. In this episode we discover Han's (and all of ours) need for connection. On the surface we may see Han a scoundrel and a drifter. But there's so much more going on there and with this stand alone we get and even deeper and richer understanding of who Han really is... Solo indeed. You can join us fo...

Send us a text The slap incident at the Oscars was all anyone was talking about this past week. However, as with many "controversies", the conversations were rarely productive and hardly constituted actual discourse. For me, seeing Will Smith, a role model of mine who I held in very high regard, lose control and slap Chris Rock on national television... well let's just say it effected me deeper than I would've expected. And so this bonus episode, which not only gave me an opportunity to trail ru...
