PODCAST MEDIA KIT

Tokens Show has featured some of the world’s most respected authors, poets, activists, musicians, and artists, and honored truth-tellers, justice seekers, and those who do courageous acts of mercy. Tokens Show Host and show creator Lee C. Camp (Ph.D., University of Notre Dame) is professor of theology & ethics at Lipscomb University in . Tokens Show grew out of Camp’s academic experience: following a lecture on war and peace, a student might raise the work of Bob Dylan. Or following a lecture on poverty, a student might want to discuss Woody Guthrie. In short order, Tokens Show was born in 2008.

Following suit with the decade-long live show, this new podcast dares to do theology in public: but theology that insists upon having conversations about supposedly non- theological topics like society and politics; whether to be, or how to be, happy; habits and human flourishing; music, books, the “Tokens transcends arts, and poetry. And all of it done in a way mere entertainment, that refuses to be overbearing, while also not ascending instead to the pretending like most people don’t care about level of education, even faith, theology and the traditions that form enlightenment” us. And all of it non-partisan – neither right nor left nor even necessarily religious, which - OCULAR FUSION is a way of saying we commit to extending hospitality to all manner of divergent voices To learn more about Tokens, visit and convictions. www.tokensshow.com/more 2018 U.S. Poet Laureate, Tracy K.
