Podcaster/journalist Andy Mills shares the unusual trajectory of his life and career: from small town boy; to God-loving member of a close-knit group of friends; to rebellious drop-out of a Christian college; to curious outsider in Southern Sudan; to hard-working, some-time inappropriate young media professional; to a more self-aware, award-winning podcast producer; to New York Times outcast; to independent media professional (with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reflector.show/">Substack</a>, of course). [Break for breath.] Along the way, we discuss the merits/drawbacks of faith, unpack the pivotal year that was 2015, debate the limitations of forgiveness, and dissect the difference between being canceled for your beliefs versus what others believe of you.Mentioned in this episode:-<a target="_blank" href="https://www.reflector.show/">Reflector podcast </a>-<a target="_blank" href="https://www.blockedandreported.org/p/episode-201-mills-spills-with-andy">Mills Spills</a> (BAR pod) -<a target="_blank" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/2K186zrvRgeE2w0wQjbaw7">The Witch Trials of JK Rowling</a> (Free Press)Find us on <a target="_blank" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/uncertain-things/id1529979654">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7fIHabrOvrApzmL9OV5K5s?si=K6GGNXr0Q6yFptkxMEbqOA&nd=1&dlsi=730b2dee6bd643f2">Spotify</a>, or wherever you get your podcasts.
