PRX Big Questions Project podcasts launch new seasons

Public radio distributors and podcast publishers, PRX has launched new seasons of podcasts created as part of the PRX Big Questions Project accelerator in 2023.

The first season received multiple Ambie nominations for ‘Best Spirituality Podcast’ and now the first episodes of the second season are available.

Season two of the Big Questions Project are:

• Mother Is A Question – Not your typical parenting podcast! Mother Is A Question has intimate, boundary-pushing conversations about motherhood. Season two topics include mothering as a revolutionary act and what we can learn from the animal kingdom about nurturing.
• Rock That Doesn’t Roll – Looks at how the peak era of christian music shaped the world we are living in now, for better or for worse. Season two explores the genre’s influence of the purity movement, film and television, and more.
• Second Sunday – Offers a raw glimpse into the lives of black queer individuals within black religious spaces. Season two looks at experiences of finding faith again through working during the AIDS crisis, evolving communities in different religions, the black trans experience, and more. 
• Moral Repair – Focuses on the ethical dimensions of modern technology like AI and automations with wisdom from the black diaspora.

The PRX Big Questions Project is supported by the John Templeton Foundation.

“Each of these podcast production teams consistently advances narratives emphasizing themes of science, religion, and philosophy while demonstrating their importance and intrigue,” said Courtney Fleurantin, project manager of the PRX Big Questions Project. “We’re excited to continue amplifying more stories by empowering these new voices in the podcasting community, and thank the John Templeton Foundation for support.”
