Ahead of the 2024 Presidential Election, Tim and Jason resume an old tradition of theirs and make their predictions of how the race will turn out.

On the docket: whether AI created art is really art, a medley of sports subjects (including the Olympics and Caitlin Clark), a look back at the summer as the academic year arrives and an exploration of Luke 19.

The Zippy Crew hits the political pavement with an episode that covers Supreme Court decisions on gun control; American and European election seasons, including the upcoming debate between Presidents Biden and Trump; interesting facts about mosquitos and a look at solid teaching as discussed by the Apostle Paul in his second letter to Timothy.
Tim and Jason talk more baseball, why everyone who uses social media should care about “the Fediverse” (especially in light of X’s move toward X-rated content), Taylor Swift’s latest album and the Rich Young Ruler from Luke 18:18-25.
