Brian From is joined by Plugged In’s Adam Holz to break down Pixar’s new film Hoppers, a quirky animated adventure with an environmental message, some surprising intensity, and a premise that may be harder to love than most Pixar favorites. They also dive into Scream 7, reflecting on the franchise’s staying power, the nostalgia factor that keeps audiences coming back, and what it says about Hollywood’s love of sequels. Along the way, they explore why some stories still connect decades later—and why studios keep reviving familiar names when audiences keep buying tickets.

The idea of “the common good” has a rich history within the Christian church. It’s the notion that, as we pursue Jesus in our lives and in the lives of others, we are fulfilling God’s purposes for His creation. This pursuit can be messy. It means rolling up our sleeves and creating space for hard conversations about real issues that impact our lives. Things like parenting, marriage, finances, politics, art, and culture. On The Common Good, Brian From creates space to have these conversations, to sit with the big questions that we all have, to sometimes disagree, but to always look for the chance to create common good, by following after Jesus. Brian welcome listeners to join them in these conversations, to bring their own questions, hopes, and struggles, and to ultimately share in a journey to see God’s design for all of us fulfilled.
