Ep 575 | Quick SOTU Reaction, Big-Picture Encouragement & Q&A

First, just to get it out of the way, we respond to the State of the Union and point out the Biden administration's actions have been much less uniting than the president's flowery speech tried to be. Then, we move on from news and politics to discuss some audience questions. We start by addressing the common fear of bringing a kid into a world so full of chaos and why you definitely should anyway. We also answer questions about what to do after college, how to use an ESV study Bible, and favori...

Ep 574 | The Truth About Florida's 'Don't Say Gay' Bill & Texas' 'Attack on Trans Kids'

Today we're debunking lies about Florida and Texas' supposedly "hateful" rules going into effect that the Left claims will hurt kids, but of course the opposite is true. In Texas, so-called "gender-affirming" care will now be seen as child abuse under the law, and in Florida, a new bill would limit schools' ability to force ideologically driven curriculum on teachers and kids. We go over why both of these things are good moves and why the Left's outcry is based mostly on ignorance. We also talk ...

Ep 573 | Fact vs. Fiction on Ukraine & Russia | Guest: Josh Hammer

Today we're talking more about the situation between Russia and Ukraine with Josh Hammer, opinion editor for Newsweek and host of "The Josh Hammer Show." Josh has been following the torrent of updates as closely as anyone, and together we try to figure out just what the heck is going on amid the misinformation that both sides are putting out. Turns out many of the viral videos and stories supposedly coming out of Ukraine are misleading at best and outright false at worst, and it's nearly impossi...

Ep 572 | Mike Rowe: These Are the 3 Steps to Loving Your Work

Today we're excited to be talking to actor, author, and podcast host Mike Rowe — that's right, the "Dirty Jobs" guy. We talk about success and fulfillment in today's world, where college is more expensive than ever (not to mention the leftist indoctrination). But, as Mike explains, college is really not the sure-fire path to a career that it once was. Mike offers what he thinks success means after his own wild ride through life and the mindset that young people should have as they prepare to joi...

Ep 571 | Russia & Ukraine: What's REALLY Going On? | Guest: Jason Buttrill

Today we're talking with Jason Buttrill, head writer and chief researcher for the Glenn Beck Program, about the rapidly escalating situation in Ukraine. Jason is a former intelligence analyst for the Department of Defense and explains the geopolitical context and history surrounding Russia's invasion of Ukraine. How far back does this go? Is this primarily the United States' responsibility? What does Putin really want? We also discuss why the Biden administration is so interested in the situatio...

Ep 570 | Secret Vaccine Data & More on CDC’s Speech Milestones

Today we're discussing some of the failures of the CDC, an organization that is supposed to be putting Americans' health at the forefront. The CDC recently relaxed its milestones for children's speech development, essentially admitting the damage that lockdowns, masks, and screens have done to our kids' learning ability. So, rather than let parents know that they should step up and make sure their kids are developmentally where they're meant to be, of course the progressives at the CDC just lowe...

Ep 569 | Kim & Kanye, 'Conscious Co-Parenting' & Disrupting God’s Order | Guest: Delano Squires

Today we're talking to Delano Squires, a BlazeTV contributor and contributor to "Fearless with Jason Whitlock." We're discussing several trending cultural stories and how they represent not only a society in moral decline, but also a society that is turning farther away from God. Following her split with Kanye West, Kim Kardashian has announced that she's chosen "herself" as her next partner, an excellent example of how we glorify self-centeredness. CNN's Van Jones told the world that he will be...

Ep 568 | The CDC's 'New' Speech Milestones & the Latest on Canada's Crackdown | Guest: Pastor Steve Richardson

Today we're hitting two topics: the CDC's new, lower expectations for child speech development, which totally have nothing to do with how harmful masks are for young kids, and the police crackdown on the Freedom Convoy protesters in Ottawa, Canada. The police and media are trying to keep the truth from surfacing, but it's clear that the police are being way too heavy-handed in their approach. Then, we talk to Canadian Pastor Steve Richardson, who attended the protests as a bystander but was beat...

Ep 566 | The Data Is In: Mask & Vaccine Mandates Don't Work | Guest: Ian Miller

Today we’re talking about mask mandates and the hypocrisy of of government officials who don't follow their own rules. Despite the numerous studies that have come out stating that cloth mask are ineffective at slowing the spread of COVID, children and toddlers are falling victim to power-hungry politicians who demand that they wear masks in school. We talk to Ian Miller, author of "Unmasked: The Global Failure of COVID Mask Mandates," about how simple and easy it is to see through the lies we're...

Ep 565 | The Women Saving Women's Sports | Guest: Ainsley Erzen

Today we're talking about women, women's sports, and the men trying to take it over. Despite the obvious objective differences between men and women, there are still people who think it's totally okay for them to compete together — as if trans swimmer Lia Thomas isn't setting records left and right and absolutely wrecking his competition (actual women). Then, we talk to high school track champion Ainsley Erzen about going off to compete in college sports only to find that she will have to compet...

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 al...

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 Ottaw...

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. Deborah...

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. S...

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...

Ep 554 | IVF, Embryo Adoption, & Surrogacy: Answering the Hard Questions | Guest: Jennifer Lahl

Today we welcome our friend Jennifer Lahl back to the show by popular demand. 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. Last time, we talked about the corruption surrounding this industry, and today we're going into the ethics and philosophy behind IVF, frozen embryos, and surrogacy. As science progres...

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...

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...
