Ep 564 | Trudeau Crushes Freedom Convoy with Martial Law | Guest: Ezra Levant

Today we're talking about Canada's Freedom Convoy & Justin Trudeau's abuses of power with Canadian journalist Ezra Levant , who has been closely following the situation since the beginning. In response to the entirely peaceful protests, Trudeau has enacted for himself wartime powers that have literally never been used before in Canada's history. He wants to wield this power like a bludgeon with alleged plans to seize the finances of regular people who supported the trucker convoy. Ezra has a...

Ep 563 | 'I Took the Vaccine For Her': Samuel & Annie’s Love Story

Today we're excited to be talking with Christian blogger Samuel Sey and his fiancée , Annie, who managed to find each other despite living in different countries, and the harsh restrictions Canada imposed on its people as a response to the pandemic. We'll discuss their story of overcoming both personal struggles and a near-tyrannical government over the past few years to make their relationship work. Then, we discuss the ongoing Freedom Convoy of truckers who are still camped out all around Otta...

Ep 562 | Why Didn’t Trump Fire Dr. Fauci? | Guest: Dr. Scott Atlas

Today we're talking to Dr. Scott Atlas , a former White House advisor on COVID policy and author of the new book , "A Plague Upon Our House: My Fight at the Trump White House to Stop COVID from Destroying America." We discuss the disorganized mess that was the American response to COVID from Dr. Atlas' insider perspective and how bureaucracy and politics ended up winning out over science and common sense. Of course Dr. Fauci is largely responsible for this, but there is another figure, Dr. Debor...

Ep 561 | Free Crack Pipes & the Cruelty of Progressive Compassion

Today we're taking another field trip to "Clown World," where the alleged leaders of our country have decided that distributing "smoking kits" to drug addicts is a good use of taxpayer money. If there was any evidence whatsoever that this policy might help people, it might be worth considering. But this is not the case. We debunk the leftist myth that making drugs more accessible will somehow help people beat addiction, and then we discuss what's wrong with the kind of moral relativism that lead...

Ep 560 | How Tim Keller & Russell Moore Became Mouthpieces for Masks & Vaccines | Guest: Megan Basham

Today we're talking with Megan Basham , a reporter for the Daily Wire who recently wrote an article exposing how Francis Collins and the NIH co-opted evangelical leaders like Tim Keller and Russell Moore, influencing them to support the establishment narrative on masks and the COVID vaccines. Interestingly, everything these people claimed was a "fringe conspiracy theory," like lab-leak theory or that masking isn't actually very effective at slowing the spread of COVID, turned out to be correct. ...

Ep 559 | An Atheist's Take on Christianity & The Power of Truth | Guest: James Lindsay

Today we're finishing our discussion with James Lindsay about history, Marxism, and theology. As James explains exactly what Marxism is and what its historical roots are, it becomes increasingly clear that this ideology is entirely antithetical to that of the Christian's. Apparently, the Marxists want redemption for mankind as well, but they believe that can only happen when literally everyone on Earth has complied with their worldview. We also discuss some Christian theology as well, and why it...

Ep 558 | Based Debate: Libertarian vs. Social Conservative | Guest: Brad Polumbo

Today we're talking to Brad Polumbo , a libertarian journalist who recently started the website BASEDPolitics , a news site dedicated to covering stories from a liberty-first mindset. Brad opposes "big government" conservatives, and despite the threat that the woke Left poses to our country, he warns against using state power for short-term wins against the Left. We discuss what the moral foundation of the Right is, or should be, and where we have very strong agreements on some issues of liberty...

Ep 557 | Why I Changed My Mind About 'Redeeming Love'

Today we're discussing Francine Rivers' wildly popular book, "Redeeming Love," as there was a major movie adaptation of it released recently. Despite many women's fond memories of reading the book as teenagers, it really does a poor job of translating what the book of Hosea is trying to tell us. Ultimately, this book does more harm than good, as it ends up glorifying earthly struggles and relationships over living a life committed to the Lord. --- Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles does th...

Ep 556 | How Race Marxism Is Infiltrating Schools, Churches & the Government | Guest: James Lindsay

Today we're thrilled to welcome our friend James Lindsay back to the show who's published a new book, "Race Marxism." James is an expert in all things Marxism, critical theory, and how leftists in this country are getting what they want, bit by bit. We discuss some of the lesser-known details about the history and philosophy of Marxism and James explains how it functions as an "intense religion." We also talk about how leftists since that time, from Woodrow Wilson to the black feminists of the 1...

Ep 555 | Canada's Freedom Convoy, Media Myths & the End of COVID?

Today we're talking about the massive protests that have been going on in Canada over the past week. Thousands of truckers formed a "Freedom Convoy," with the giant line of trucks making its way all the way from the west coast of Canada to Ottawa, where enormous crowds gathered to protest against vaccine mandates. And of course, wherever there are people who just want to be free, the mainstream media is there to lie about it. The Left is adamant that this enormous (and diverse) group of Canadian...

Jennifer is the founder and president of the Center for Bioethics and Culture , and as you may know, has dedicated herself to raising awareness about the ethical problems and potential dangers of 'big fertility' and the surrogacy industry.

Ep 553 | My Family’s COVID Experience & Why I Lost Faith in the 'Experts'

Today we're talking about COVID and Allie's personal experience with the virus. After nearly two years, the 'vid finally visited the Stuckey household. We discuss how this saga put in perspective the rest of the pandemic and reminds us of all the times the government and the media shot their own credibility in the foot. We also talk about the Biden administration's apparent desire to worsen the pandemic, as evidenced by the FDA's removal of emergency use authorization for some types of monoclona...

REPLAY: The Dire State of American Theology

Many people who identify as Christians don't know their Bibles. According to a recent study, while 61% of Millennials profess to be Christians, only 2% have a biblical worldview as defined by Barna. Ligonier Ministry's "The State of Theology" reveals why: Many self-identifying Christians don't know the basic tenets of their faith. This theological confusion negatively affects people's worldview in a way that impacts society for the worst. The time has gone for true Christians to be complacent. A...

Ep 552 | "Big Fertility" & the Truth Behind The Surrogacy Industry | Guest: Jennifer Lahl

Today we're talking to Jennifer Lahl, an author and filmmaker and president of the Center for Bioethics and Culture. She is currently dedicated to raising awareness about the corruption of the surrogacy industry and the potential dangers of in vitro fertilization. Although many Christians support these things because they are pro-family, Jennifer explains why this method of having a family comes with a higher number of problems and victims and exposes the big money that the fertility and surroga...

Ep 551 | My Take on Pastor Mike Todd’s Spit Take

Today we're mainly focusing on theology, starting with a reaction to Oklahoma pastor Mike Todd's strange sermon, in which he spat on his hand and rubbed it on a churchgoer to make a point about vision or something. Gross. However, Todd has realized since then that he took things a little too far and made an apology video. In the video, he encourages people to watch the rest of the sermon and not just the clip going around on social media ... so we did. And, unfortunately, his sermon turned out t...

Ep 550 | The Earth Needs More Babies, Not Fewer

Today we're demolishing the myth of overpopulation, the basis for the "anti-natalist" movement that says that people shouldn't have kids for the good of humanity. We look at the history of this worldview and why people are so convinced that overpopulation is a serious threat to humanity. This type of thinking has wound its way through some of the worst ideologies in history, from actual white supremacists in America to the Nazis and then to Planned Parenthood. However, the threat of overpopulati...

Ep 549 | Voter Suppression Propaganda, Islamist Terrorism & Muscular Conservatism | Guest: Josh Hammer

Today we're talking to Josh Hammer, conservative commentator and opinion editor at Newsweek. Josh is here to break down a few of the stories that have taken over the news in the last few days, starting with the hostage situation that took place in a North Texas synagogue. Apparently, an armed Muslim extremist thought he could negotiate the release of a convicted terrorist by taking some innocent people hostage. Thankfully, no one lost their lives. However, since then, the media have been working...

Ep 548 | Social Credit Scores, Joe Biden & the Great Reset | Guest: Justin Haskins

Today we're talking to Justin Haskins who has just written a new book alongside Glenn Beck, 'The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of 21st-Century Fascism'. The wealthy, powerful people who hang around the World Economic Forum and Davos are serious about "resetting" the way the economy of the world works. Justin explains the nightmarish economic system that these people want to implement, called "stakeholder capitalism." Basically, the leaders of corporations and governments will work together...

Ep 547 | The Christian Nationalist Bogeyman

Today we're talking about the Left's favorite pretend villain: Christian nationalism. As one year passed since the Capitol riot, the bad takes about Christianity and conservatives were flying fast and furious all over the internet. Even renowned Christian theologians like Russell Moore have fallen into the trap of thinking that "Christian nationalism" is some kind of existential threat to America. We'll discuss why that isn't the case and how the real threat of authoritarianism in America is com...

Ep 546 | When They Try to Shut You Up, Double Down | Guest: Andrew Klavan

Today we're talking with Andrew Klavan , author and the host of "The Andrew Klavan Show" on the Daily Wire. We're discussing the insane ways the Left bends truth to its will in pursuit of power. A perfect example of this is the Justice Department's announcement that it is creating a unit focused on domestic terrorism in commemoration of January 6. While they're all too happy to go after right-wing rioters, or even just concerned parents at school board meetings, they completely ignore any violen...

Ep 545 | A Call to Courage in an Age of Liars, Cowards & Fools

We're back for the first time this year, and there's so much to talk about. We start off with some encouragement for Christians to be fearless and make the most of this year. Then we discuss the disastrous ways liberal COVID policies are affecting the most vulnerable, marginalized group in America: children. For example, putting a kid in the trunk of a car to reduce the chance of exposure or forcing schoolkids to eat their lunches in the freezing cold because the adults are terrified of the pand...

Ep 544 | Why American COVID Policy Has Failed Us & How to Fix It | Guest: Dr. Bret Weinstein

Today we're excited to be talking with Dr. Bret Weinstein , an author, podcaster, and former professor of biology. We cover several topics, starting with wokeness and cancel culture, as Dr. Weinstein explains how his and his wife's characters were ruthlessly attacked by the Left for supposed racism, which ultimately resulted in his resignation from his teaching position. We move on to progressivism in general and how Dr. Weinstein’s views have changed since that incident. Also, even though he's ...

Ep 543 | How the West Was Lost ... and How to Win It Again | Guest: Victor Davis Hanson

Today, we're talking to Victor Davis Hanson , a senior fellow with the Hoover Institution. Hanson is also an author, and his latest book, " The Dying Citizen ," examines the Left's attacks on the middle class, attempts to track America's problems over the past several years, and explains how they have affected the average citizen. Within the government and other important institutions like universities and media, there are postmodern and progressive thinkers who want to fundamentally change Amer...

Ep 542 | Finding Christmas Joy Amidst the Chaos of our Age

Today, we start by talking about some of the big stories that have been happening over the past few weeks and months — namely COVID and the authoritarian power that the government and corporations have seized as a result. We're not just dealing with political tyranny here in America but also moral and cultural decay. However, it always bears repeating that Christians need not fall victim to despair, because we know that everything happens exactly as God needs it to. We also discuss what the Bibl...

Ep 540 | A Biblical Take on Santa

Today we're having a theological discussion on how Christians should treat Santa Claus. While it's not a salvation issue, there are some verses in the Bible that can give us guidance on how to view the secular holiday icon. We also consider what the 19th-century theologian Charles Spurgeon had to say about the secular side of Christmas and the fact that there actually is a real, omniscient gift-giver, and His name isn't Santa Claus. --- Today's Sponsors: Patriot Mobile is America's only Christia...

Ep 539 | The Rise of the Metaverse Church & the Fall of COVID | Guest: Steve Deace

Today we're talking to our friend and fellow BlazeTV host Steve Deace . Steve always has an update for us on the latest news about the COVID pandemic.

In addition to discussing COVID, the Omicron variant, and what the future of th...

Today we're discussing Canada's recent ban on "conversion therapy" with theologian, pastor, and Founder & President of The Ezra Institute , Dr. Joseph Boot , who lives in Canada and has been speaking out against the ban. We discuss what the law actually says and how its vague wording can be used to restrict anyone from seeking help that's based in the biblical view of sex and gender. Incredibly, not a single conservative member of the Canadian Parliament voted against this bill, showing the ...

Ep 537 | The Josh Duggar Case: Is Purity Culture to Blame?

Today we're talking about the Josh Duggar trial and how we as Christians should react when one of our own is exposed in such a way. First, we take a moment to acknowledge the disaster that occurred over the weekend in Kentucky, when tornadoes caused untold damage to people's homes. Then, we go on to discuss what happened with Josh Duggar and how his heinous behavior came to pass. We also debunk the ridiculous assertion that "purity culture" or "white evangelicalism" are to blame for Duggar's act...
