Über diesen Titel
Hosted by Dr. Kelly J. Baker and John Brooks. Kelly and John invite other people from the wide and wild world of religious studies to talk to them about why and how they do what they do and why their work matters to us all. They also talk to each other about the ideas, stories, and histories that fascinate them and that they think you should know about, too.℗ & © 2020 The CageClub Podcast Network Sozialwissenschaften Spiritualität Welt
  • #068 - "Midnight Mass" (2021) with Matthew J. Cressler
    Oct 27 2026
    Well, it's somehow been five years since Mike Flanagan's masterful work of Catholic horror, Midnight Mass, was released on Netflix. So we thought it was time to give it a second look. Does it still deserve its reputation as one of the great pieces of work in its genre? Who better to ask than our semi-regular Halloween guest Matthew Cressler, who joined us last year for our discussion of The Exorcist. Matt's new book, Body and Blood: Catholic Horror in America, written with Jack Lee Downey, Kathleen Holscher, and Michael Pasquier comes out today (October 27th), and Midnight Mass plays a not insignificant role in its existence!

  • #067 - Lily Dale and American Spiritualism with Sarah Handley-Cousins
    Oct 15 2026
    Sarah Handley-Cousins is a historian of disability and the military during the Civil War era. She has a PhD in History from the University at Buffalo where she currently teaches. She co-produces Dig: A History Podcast and her newest book, Spiritualism's Place: Reformers, Seekers, and Séances in Lily Dale, was cowritten with her fellow Dig producers Averill Earls, Marissa C. Rhodes, and Elizabeth Garner Masarik. The book is an exploration of Lily Dale, an intentional community in upstate New York that is now the spiritual (and physical) center of Spiritualism, the 19th Century faith movement that sought to eradicate the line between the land of the living and the dead. Sarah joins us to talk about the inspiration for the book, her own experiences with Spiritualism, and the thin line between self-delusion and authentic belief.

  • #066 - The Resurrection of Ned Ludd
    Sep 28 2026
    The word Luddite has a lot of unfair negative connotations. It's also almost always misused. In this episode, we look at the recent trend of reevaluating the Luddites - the radical labor rights movement of the early 19th century - in the age of AI and data centers. Who was Ned Ludd? How did he begin a movement? And what does it say about the religious nature of that movement that (spoiler) he never existed? In this episode, we reference Matthew James Seidel's review of Gavin Mueller's Breaking Things At Work in Current Affairs
