Ep 828 | I Called Obama Evil. Christians Got Mad. Who’s Right?
26/06/2023 Duração: 01h10minToday we're talking about Obama's tweet condemning the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which shows just how evil the pro-abortion philosophy is. We give a reminder of what an abortion actually is and explain how only an evil ideology could not only allow such a thing but actively applaud it. Then we look at Justin Giboney's "AND Campaign" response to us, which claims that our argument that Christians should not vote Democrat really means Christians should vote Republican. We explain why this isn't necessarily true and why some Christians tend to misunderstand the cruelty of Democratic policies in the first place. We take a look at some other responses to us and break down why the two political sides are not morally equivalent. Finally, we look at some horrifying abortion rhetoric from the Left. --- Timecodes: (01:06) Intro (09:53) Obama's tweet / abortion numbers post-Roe / pregnancy centers (22:00) What is abortion?

Ep 827 | The World Economic Forum’s Plot to “Correct” Christianity
22/06/2023 Duração: 01h22sToday we're covering various topics in the news. First, an update on the lost Titanic tourist submersible search and some of the bizarre stories coming out surrounding it. We look at an insane post from the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) which condemns Florida for executing a serial rapist/murderer while not providing him tax-payer subsidized gender transition "treatments" and transferred to a women's prison. We take a look at his horrifying criminal history and why this contributes even further to an already existing pattern of violence against women from this group. We also look at another case of a violent man being transferred to a women's prison due to leftist policy. Then, a World Economic Forum contributor claims that AI could be used to rewrite the Bible and create religions that are "correct" when they claim their books are written by a superhuman power. We explain his misunderstanding of how the Bible came to be and what Christians believe, and why it's so important to understand that no one

Ep 826 | Lost Submarine, Depressed Teens & Two-Tiered Justice
21/06/2023 Duração: 44minToday the team is going through some news of the day, along with a slightly discouraging study on teen depression. First, we discuss the news stories we haven't been paying much attention to – what's going on with Trump's indictments, and why do we continue to hear new things about Hunter Biden's laptop? We explain why it's been difficult to catch up. Then, a tourist submarine touring the Titanic remains has gone missing, and the search is still on. We discuss this terrifying scenario and look at some of the weird details that have been revealed. We also discuss a study on teen depression and ask the question: Why do teens seem to be more depressed now than ever? --- Timecodes: (00:38) Intro (02:35) What's going on with Donald Trump and Hunter Biden?

Ep 825 | Dystopia Update: Synthetic Embryos, Frozen Brothers & Rented Wombs | Guest: Libby Emmons
20/06/2023 Duração: 01h03minToday we’re joined by Libby Emmons, editor in chief of the the The Post Millennial, to discuss more stories from IVF and surrogacy dystopia. First, we cover the first-ever creation of synthetic human embryos using stem cells in what scientists from the University of Cambridge and the California Institute of Technology call a groundbreaking advance that sidesteps the need for eggs or sperm. This obviously raises endless ethical and existential questions about humanity and purpose, and we look at some of the many problems that could arise from such "advances." We look at a TikTok of an adult born from IVF who claims she's curious about gestating her "twin," as well as all the questions that come along with that. With the advancement of technology in reproduction, the question is no longer "can we?" but "should we?" We cover a few other horrifying stories of surrogacy and IVF, which all show the truth that the goal tends to be adult personal desire rather than the well-being of the created children. We look agai

Ep 824 | 'Shiny, Happy People': The Real Problems with Duggar Theology
19/06/2023 Duração: 01h17minToday we're talking all about the Amazon Prime documentary "Shiny, Happy People," which focuses on the Duggar family and the greater theology behind their beliefs (Bill Gothard's Institute in Basic Life Principles). The IBLP and Gothard have been accused of legalism, double standards, and abuse within their doctrine. We start off with some issues the documentary presents as big problems within Duggar/IBLP theology, which include wives submitting to husbands, gender roles, and modesty, among others. We also share the problems we see with their theology, but discuss how many things like submission and gender roles themselves are actually biblical – the IBLP has just misconstrued, misinterpreted, and misapplied these Biblical commands to create a legalistic, graceless, gospel-less framework that oppresses and represses its adherents rather than setting them free. We share some of the shocking revelations from the documentary series and explain the frustrating angle the filmmakers took in conflating IBLP and fund

Ep 823 | Megan Fox, Witchcraft & Transing Kids
15/06/2023 Duração: 01h01minToday we start off with the White House 'Pride' celebration, which drew criticism online after a transgender-identifying man flashed his fake moobs on the White House lawn. This, of course, was after the White House debuted a horrific display of a pride flag in between two American flags, technically violating the U.S. flag code. Many have made the claim that we will be judged because of things like this, but the reality is – this is part of the judgment. We explain the deceitfulness of calling this "loving your neighbor." Then, Megan Fox found herself in the news after commentator Robby Starbuck posted photos of her sons, who appear to be dressed as girls. We look at her comments on this, including her previous statement that when her son was still in the womb she felt he was gender queer. We also look at a new study that shows people in most categories are moving to the truth when it comes to views on gender and waking up to the nonsense around us, and we discuss the tragedy of Tori Bowie's death during lab

Ep 822 | The Big Money Behind Big Medicine | Guest: Dr. Roger McFillin
14/06/2023 Duração: 39minToday we're joined again by Dr. Roger McFillin, clinical psychologist and co-host of the "Radically Genuine" podcast, for part two of our conversation discussing where the field of psychology has gone wrong. We start out by asking the question: What do people mean when they say "chemical imbalance." We hear this phrase a lot in relation to clinical depression, but what does it mean, and is it even real? We look at the role of Big Pharma in marketing their own drugs to the public and discuss how the education system plays into the ever-growing culture of "mental illness" among children and teens. Then, what role does the field of psychology have when it comes to gender dysphoria, and how seriously is social media playing into it all? --- Timecodes: (00:43) What does "chemical imbalance" mean?

Ep 821 | Why Antidepressants Don’t Fix Depression | Guest: Dr. Roger McFillin
13/06/2023 Duração: 37minToday we're joined by Dr. Roger McFillin, clinical psychologist and co-host of the "Radically Genuine" podcast, to discuss where the field of psychology has gone wrong. We talk about his skepticism of the field, starting with the cultural shift when Prozac was brought to market. We discuss the importance of emotions and managing them and what's causing the dramatic increase in mind- and mood-altering drugs in adolescents. Then, a hot topic: Is there ever actually a need for SSRIs (also known as antidepressants)? And if not, how do we navigate psychological treatment without the quick fix of numbing? We also take a look at the marketing of pharmaceutical drugs and exactly who's pushing them and why. Stay tuned for part two tomorrow! --- Timecodes: (00:43) Intro / criticism of the psychology field (08:03) Prozac & SSRIs / emotions matter (11:34) Increase in mind and mood-altering drugs in adolescents (17:49) Is there ever a need for SSRIs?

Ep 820 | Did Satan Tell ‘Elliot’ Page to Transition? | Guest: Lauren Chen
12/06/2023 Duração: 01h04minToday we're joined by Lauren Chen, host of BlazeTV's "Pseudo Intellectual," to talk movies, pop culture, and news. First, we talk about movies and TV and how the approach to censoring humor has changed since the shows like "The Office" were being made. Then we discuss Ellen 'Elliot' Page's tragic story of "discovering she was trans" and why despite her claims that this has led to joy, the end result is destruction. We also discuss Ellen's claim that she was harassed on the streets of Los Angeles for being trans, which just so happened to be revealed the day her book launched. Then, Lululemon fired two employees after they called the police on looters – who's going to be held accountable? We also talk about the recent horrifying story of a Syrian refugee running around with a knife and attacking children in France, yet another consequence of uncontrolled open borders. --- Timecodes: (01:10) Intro / movie & TV reviews (09:32) Ellen/Elliot Page (29:54) Lululemon debacle (35:24) Citi Bike incident (40:40) New

Ep 819 | Jen Hatmaker Commemorates Her Divorce from Evangelicalism
08/06/2023 Duração: 01h09minToday we start with a deep dive into Rolling Stone reporter Ej Dickson, who is in the process of writing a smear piece on conservative hosts who speak out against transgender ideology and the grooming of children. Turns out, Ej has a history of running cover for and essentially trying to normalize pedophilia. Then, we go over the Wall Street Journal article that exposes how Instagram is being used by child predators to communicate and organize with each other. Lastly, we talk about yet another disappointing Instagram post from Jen Hatmaker, in which she commemorates Pride Month by reminiscing about an interview in which she first announced that she is LGBTQ-affirming. We discuss why, despite what she must think, Jen is not taking the biblical or the loving stance on this. --- Timecodes: (01:30) New merch at YWLS (04:53) Rolling Stone request for comment (36:50) Ej’s history and most recent articles (49:00) WSJ article on pedophiles and Instagram (53:00) Stop posting your children online (01:01:05) Jen Hatm

Ep 818 | How LGBTQ Became Our State Religion | Guest: Auron MacIntyre
07/06/2023 Duração: 01h13minToday we're joined by Auron MacIntyre, BlazeTV host of "The Auron MacIntyre Show," to discuss why the Right isn't winning and the "Total State" takeover of the religion of LGBTQ. We discuss the rainbow brigade's insistence on exposing children to sexuality early on and how this is the key to predation. If you aren't able to stand up against the active destruction of children, you can't stand up against anything — but is the Right really up for this fight? We talk about how most people on the Right are terrified of being labeled anti-gay and the classic "LGB without the T" argument. We argue that you either have a cohesive moral vision or you don't, and if you don't, you'll be picked apart by those who do. We also discuss Ted Cruz tweeting out against Uganda's new anti-homosexuality law (of all humanitarian issues to speak up about) and how he bought into the rainbow narrative. We also discuss what the "Total State" is and whether there's any good news that can come of any of this. --- Timecodes: (01:35) Pr

Ep 817 | Parenting Influencers Go All-In on Pride Propaganda
06/06/2023 Duração: 48minToday we’re discussing several parenting influencers who have jumped into giving advice on how to teach kids about Pride Month. We respond to some of the things they've said regarding Pride and give you some encouragement and advice in response. One of these accounts is Dr. Becky’s "Good Inside;" she recently posted about how to encourage your kids to accept openness and tolerance in relation to Pride. We explain why we shouldn’t be teaching our kids to be open to and tolerant of everything and why it's important for kids to orient themselves according to the truth of the world. We talk about the danger and stupidity of the phrase “love is love” and look at a Parents magazine article on going along with your child’s “coming out.” Then we talk about "Big Little Feelings," another parenting influencer who posted before Pride Month, pushing the propaganda that your child will commit self-harm if you don't allow them to submit to gender ideology. This goes hand in hand with the Trevor Project's bizarre "data" on

Ep 816 | Reliving the Trauma of Sharing a Locker Room with 'Lia' Thomas | Guest: Riley Gaines
05/06/2023 Duração: 48minToday, we’re joined by Riley Gaines to talk about her decision to speak out against men competing in women’s sports. Her story started when she tied with Lia (Will) Thomas in the NCAA Women’s Swimming Championships and saw the trophy given to Thomas rather than her for the photo op. She covers the traumatizing experience of having to change with a man in the women’s locker room and how blindsided and betrayed she and the other swimmers felt. We discuss the backlash and harassment she’s faced for standing up for women in sports, including being held hostage after a speech at San Francisco State University. Riley issues a challenge to female athletes and offers some advice to parents. Then, she joins us again for a special announcement. --- Timecodes: (00:54) Intro & Monday encouragement (13:23) Background on Riley (17:15) Deciding to fight sports injustice (19:36) Will Thomas & denying truth (30:55) Family response to Riley's competition (34:35) Calling on girls to boycott (40:03) Title IX (44:20) Riley's a

Ep 815 | MLB Christians Push Back on Pride
01/06/2023 Duração: 54minToday we're talking about the continuing controversy surrounding the Los Angeles Dodgers and their involvement with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a group of drag queens who explicitly belittle and mock Christianity. Since the Dodgers re-invited the group to participate in their Pride event, several pro players have spoken out against the politicization of the MLB by having Pride events and involving themselves with groups like the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, and unsurprisingly, they're getting trashed by the Left and mainstream media. However, some of these players are holding more firmly to their faith than others, while some have disappointingly responded with caveats or apologized altogether. Then, we talk about the terrible story of two elderly pro-life volunteers who were violently attacked while praying outside an abortion clinic. Then, we briefly discuss a new study that seems to confirm what we all already knew: that left-wing ideology attracts literal narcissists and psychopaths. --- Ti

Ep 814 | ‘The Chosen’ Responds to Pride Flag ‘Controversy’ | Guest: Rep. Jessica Baker
31/05/2023 Duração: 56minToday we're discussing a few controversial topics, starting with a Pride flag spotted on the set of "The Chosen," a popular TV series focusing on the life of Jesus. The flag was seen attached to camera equipment in a promotional clip and belongs to a crew member, which naturally drew a lot of negative feedback. We take a look at whether this is cause for concern and what's realistic to expect from "Christian" shows. Then we move over to Florida, where an Orlando-based convention for furries (people who enjoy dressing up as anthropomorphized creatures) announced it would ban children due to a Florida Senate bill that makes exposing children to sexual performances illegal. We discuss why this move reveals a lot about the "furry" community. Then we're joined by Florida Representative Jessica Baker, who sponsored a Florida bill that allows sexual battery against a child under 12 years old to be considered a capital offense, punishable by the death penalty. She explains why this bill is important to her and why it

Ep 813 | Is Chick-fil-A Moving Left? & Khloe Kardashian’s Surrogacy Confession
30/05/2023 Duração: 58minToday we're talking about Chick-fil-A's diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, which have provoked backlash today after conservatives discovered some rather left-leaning language on the company's site. We look at what the company claims in these initiatives (and the fact that it has a VP of DEI to begin with) and share the real problems with DEI. Then, Khloe Kardashian shines some light on the dark truth of surrogacy in a new clip from her show "The Kardashians." In the show, she expresses how transactional her surrogacy experience seemed to be. We explain why she's absolutely right and why more and more people are realizing the many dark sides of surrogacy, which has more ties to human trafficking than most are willing to admit. We also offer some encouragement for the week. --- Timecodes: (00:54) Intro / Indy 500 / airport breakdown (07:58) Encouragement for the week (14:16) Chick-fil-A (31:00) Target update (34:40) Power of influence (40:30) Khloe Kardashian surrogacy --- Today's Sponsors: Goo

Ep 812 | Will Chip & Jo Speak Out Against Target 'Pride'?
25/05/2023 Duração: 56minToday we're talking about Target's pride clothing line again since news of the company's collaboration with a satanist broke. We take a look at the controversial items in the collaboration and what the artist has said about satanism and Satan. One of those messages is that "Satan respects pronouns." We explain why he's right about this – Satan is the father of chaos and lies. We look at Target's response to the backlash to its pride line, which included pulling the collection from some stores, but the company's response didn't include an apology for selling the items to begin with. We explain why this doesn't mean we've won and give a call to action: We think everyone can give up Target for at least the month of June. We also discuss Chip and Joanna Gaines' silence on this Target ordeal and explain why it's so important for these famous Christians and longtime Target collaborators to speak out against what Target has been supporting. We also give a message to those expressing animosity over the Republican pri

Ep 811 | How Biden’s Helping China Take Over the World | Guest: Peter Schweizer
24/05/2023 Duração: 41minToday we're joined by Peter Schweizer, American political researcher and author of many books including "Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win," to talk about the U.S. government's corruption surrounding China. For a long time, global elites have told us that the U.S. merging closer with China is a good thing, but that's been proven to be categorically wrong. This merging has only made those same elites richer, and they continue to do things like help build the Chinese military. We discuss the Biden family's ties to China and why they're so important (and often misrepresented as less drastic than they really are). The truth is that every single deal the Biden family made with China was with an individual with deep ties to the CCP's spy apparatus. We talk about what we're really giving up when we do business with China and cover TikTok, the NBA, and college campus corruption as well. Then, we look at how China pushes progressive policies in the U.S. to weakens us, while not allowing those

Ep 810 | Detoxifying Your Life: Birth Control, Cleaning Chemicals & Fake Food | Guest: Shawna Holman
23/05/2023 Duração: 50minToday we're joined by Shawna Holman, founder of A Little Less Toxic, to discuss her story of learning to build a less toxic life and share tips on how we can take steps in the same direction. Shawna shares her story of struggling through illness and endless antibiotic treatments, only to find that lifestyle changes would ultimately help heal her body. We discuss Shawna's approach to both simplifying your life and also making your home less toxic, even if it starts with eliminating just one toxic cleaning product. We talk about the "crunchy" movement and why the "all or nothing" mentality can overwhelm rather than help. We also discuss the balance of modern medicine – while we're overprescribing and overmedicating, modern medicine is saving lives. How do we find a good balance and correct answers to our health questions? Then, how toxic is birth control, and which methods are safer than others? You can get Shawna's book here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/a-healthier-home-the-room-by-room-guide-to-make-any-spa

Ep 809 | The 'Trad' Movement Isn’t Biblical
22/05/2023 Duração: 01h03minToday, we're talking about a movement within both the secular and Christian Right, which has been called the "trad" movement or, in some cases, the "Red Pill" movement. It perpetuates views that could easily be seen as hateful toward women. Many of the men in this movement complain about women and equate masculinity with physical fitness and ultra self-sufficiency. In some of these circles, these men emphasize the importance of finding a traditional, service-oriented, submissive wife. But it's not just men. Twitter and TikTok are littered with "trad" women complaining about feminism and claiming to be the antidote to it as "trad" wives while simultaneously representing some of the worst forms of feminism themselves: being loudmouthed, using foul language, and showing off their bodies in a way that is by no means traditional. We talk about why this is not a biblical view of women and why this actually perpetuates hate toward them. We take another look at those in the Christian patriarchy crowd who think only m
