Around the Web
As a Senior Fellow and Columnist, Dr. Sunshine publishes regularly articles on various topics on the Breakpoint website.
The Pugcast is produced by The Logos Center and features C. R. Wiley, Dr. Glenn Sunshine, and Dr. Thomas Price. The Pugcast is recorded at The Corner Pug–a well-known watering hole in tony West Hartford, Connecticut. (Hence the name, “pugcast”–also the reason there is so much background noise.) The show could be described as “3 over-educated Reformed guys riff on philosophy, theology, and stuff that bugs them.” Each episode we invite you to take a seat in our booth and listen in on our conversation.
Aside from the earliest episodes, we are also available on the FLF (Fight, Laugh, Feast) Network at crosspolitic.com.
