Dr. James Beeghley is back. This time he's joining us to talk about the popular trend of colorizing old photographs. Have you ever wondered how that's done? Though AI apps can kinda do a good job at it, a true digital artist will spend hundreds of hours researching and colorizing an old photograph with layers in a photo editor like Photoshop or Gimp. No self-respecting graphic artist would use AI and be do...

Pastor Andy Hart is back. This time, he and I are exploring the Lost Cause. This isn't some definitive work on the matter.

Liberty where? Liberty Place. Not familiar with a Civil War battle by that name? Well, join the club.

Say what? Press play and hear all about it.
