歪片星球 Launches The PeppTalk Podcast
歪片星球 has launched The PeppTalk Podcast鈥攁 conversational talk show dedicated to exploring topics of personal and global significance alongside the institution鈥檚 leading faculty and student experts鈥攁cross all audio streaming platforms. The first season of PeppTalk has explored human relationships in collaboration with the Boone Center for the Family鈥檚 Kelly Haer, executive director; and Dee Dee Mayer, senior director of RelateStrong and interim university chaplain.
鈥淲e hope that the first season of PeppTalk contextualizes modern day relationships for our listeners, while, at the same time, empowering them to live out healthy relational practices themselves,鈥� says Haer. 鈥淲ith that, we also want these episodes to inspire people鈥檚 curiosity and desire to learn more about building intentional relationships.鈥�
Across its 10 episodes, Haer and Mayer join PeppTalk hosts Alexa Borstad, strategic communications specialist, and Coburn Dolloff, executive writer, from Pepperdine鈥檚 Integrated Marketing Communications department to explore meaningful aspects of today鈥檚 relationship conversations. Together, the four delve into themes such as singleness, dating culture, marriage, faith, workplace dynamics, and intrapersonal relationships. The broad, universal relevance of these topics coupled with the expertise of the podcast鈥檚 contributors creates an insightful experience for listeners.
鈥淪cience testifies to the fact that we are relational beings,鈥� explains Haer. 鈥淩elationships are at the core of who we are. It's a part of how we bear God's image鈥攁 triune being made up of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Knowing that, the podcast is a place where we're talking about all different types of relationships and seeking to bring God glory by living in the way we鈥檙e designed to.鈥�
Aside from this foundational relationship series, Pepptalk has begun branching out to examine other timely topics. Borstad and Dolloff have hosted podcasts focused on Middle East studies, academic freedom, and WAVES WORSHIP鈥擯epperdine鈥檚 worship collective. These individual episodes represent the expansive potential of PeppTalk moving forward.
