"Inspired" (wrong word) by the recent Coldplay debacle, I had picked out a photo of my wife and me in similar pose and debated putting it on the Jumbotron meme as if we were both caught cheating on our respective musical tastes by attending a Coldplay concert.

This week’s bonus Second Drafts newsletter is a personal reflection on a day that felt like both an ending and a memorial—the auction of my father’s farm equipment. It’s about more than machines; it’s about legacy, loss, and what it means to let go. craigdunham.substack.com/p/the-weight-o…

From airport lounges to executive suites to late-night campfires, this edition explores what our spaces, work, and friendships reveal about what we truly value. Plus, a few camp stories (with pics!) you won’t get anywhere else. Second Drafts is up: craigdunham.substack.com/p/when-everybo…

New at Second Drafts: Words, policies, and tech shape how we see ourselves—but not always for the better. Three reads worth your time (and reflection). craigdunham.substack.com

In this week’s Second Drafts, I take a second look at three stories: a brutal murder that raises hard questions about justice, a pop-culture wedding that says more than we think about marriage, and a new school that dares to unite theology with the trades. craigdunham.substack.com

Theology surveys, masculinity debates, Mercedes dashboards—this week’s Second Drafts is a strange brew, but that's why you read it, right? craigdunham.substack.com/p/the-state-of…

As federal agents raid cities and protests flare, the immigration crisis is testing America’s conscience—and the Church’s. What does it look like to show compassion and uphold justice? Thanks for reading Second Drafts. craigdunham.substack.com/p/trump-deploy…

Three new stories this week. Together, they’re reminders that truth, place, and integrity are worth holding onto when the world feels untethered. Second Drafts is up. craigdunham.substack.com/p/american-far…

The jury got the verdict correct; no idea what the final sentence may be in terms of years behind bars (4 to 20). May the decision bring some peace for the family. sj-r.com/story/news/cou…

People are exhausted by the extremes. They’re tired of being told they have to choose between enablement and cruelty, between blind compassion and heartless pragmatism.With that as my presupposition, I hope this "bye week" issue of Second Drafts resonates. craigdunham.substack.com/p/the-snap-dis…

In a marriage, there are often two different intentions informing the phrase, “I plan to take full advantage of the time change.” #IYKYK #FallBack

In this week's Second Drafts, reflections on the USDA’s missteps, why our culture keeps getting dumber, and even a little commentary on what actual witches think of Wicked. Hope it’s an enjoyable read heading into Thanksgiving week. craigdunham.substack.com/p/usda-head-sa…

Here's a meditation from back in my headmaster days ten years ago. Some good and pithy quotes about gratitude, as well as a quick look at four ways we tend to give thanks (not all of them good). Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. craigdunham.substack.com/p/on-giving-th…

Do not cite the Deep Magic to me, Witch. I was there when it was written. (Though for the record, the first rule of Gen X is you don't talk about Gen X.) nytimes.com/2025/12/02/t-m…

College kids getting accommodations, AI “musicians” with no pulse, the surprising health benefits of singing together. I feel like I say this every pub day: this week’s three stories might not seem connected at first…but they are. craigdunham.substack.com/p/accommodatio…
