Ep 764 | What Really Happens at Pregnancy Centers? | Guest: Leanne Jamieson

Today we’re joined by Leanne Jamieson, executive director at Prestonwood Pregnancy Center, to talk about what really goes on at pregnancy centers. In the aftermath of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, pregnancy centers across the country have found themselves targets of vandalism and vitriol, most notably from Elizabeth Warren, who deemed them “dangerous.” Leanne sets the record straight, explaining that these are centers where women come to be loved, served, and given actual choices that Planned ...

Ep 763 | Governor Ron DeSantis on the LGBTQ Lobby, DEI, and Fatherhood

Today we're joined by a very special guest, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, to talk about some of the latest media myths about his moves as the leader of his state, his governing philosophy, and how fatherhood influences the fights he takes on. Governor DeSantis, as many know, is consistently at the center of the most important culture wars, using his power as governor of the state of Florida to push for policies that have swung the state from purple to red in just four years. We talk about the m...

Ep 762 | No, Jessa Duggar Seewald Did Not Get an Abortion

Today we're starting off by talking about Jessa Duggar Seewald and the blatant lies that the Left is pushing about her and the miscarriage she tragically suffered over the holidays. Leftist outlets are trying to convince people that Jessa actually had an abortion "whether she wants to admit it or not," because she had a D&C following the miscarriage. The problem, aside from the cruelty, is that that's not how a D&C works. We set the record straight and highlight the lies that the media a...

Ep 761 | Is Public School the Best Choice for Christians?

Today we're reacting to Jen Wilkin and Jonathan Pennington's debate on public education vs. private education (hosted by the Gospel Coalition). We present this argument with its full context but break down some of what Jen Wilkin, who represents the pro-public-school side, says specifically. In response to Wilkin's claim that woke curriculum can be a fearmongering tactic, we take a look at what's happening in schools even in red states. Wilkin also mentions that our decision on where to send our...

Ep 760 | Whistleblower Exposes Horrors at Gender Clinic | Guest: Seth Dillon

Today we’re joined by our friend Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee, to review some recent news stories. We look at some of the Babylon Bee’s recent “prophecies” and what it means when parody becomes reality. We talk UFOs and Twitter. Then, we discuss news from St. Louis, where a former case manager at Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children's Hospital, Jamie Reed, decided to blow the whistle on transgender clinics and the horrifying effects of “gender affirmation surgeri...

Ep 759 | Book-Banning Brigade Comes for Roald Dahl

Today we're talking about beloved children's author Roald Dahl, author of books such as "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Matilda," who was in the news after Puffin, the publisher of his books, hired sensitivity readers to make his writings "less offensive." This, in their eyes, means removing references to women and men (making the language "gender-neutral") and removing the word "fat" (but keeping the word "enormous") and "ugly" (but keeping the word "beastly"). Meanwhile, the French pu...

Ep 758 | Sorry, Ohio. Biden’s Busy in Ukraine

Today we're talking about Biden turning his back on Ohio despite the ongoing devastation from the train derailment, instead choosing to go to Ukraine and pledge $500 million in military aid (after rejecting FEMA aid to Ohio). We discuss how backward this is and why it's important for every country to put its own people first. But we're not the only ones frustrated – polls are showing fewer and fewer people are willing to put up with the endless funds heading to Ukraine in the midst of what's hap...

Ep 757 | New Studies Prove We Were Right About Masks & Immunity | Guest: Jennifer Sey

Today we're joined by Jennifer Sey, author of "Levi’s Unbuttoned: The Woke Mob Took My Job but Gave Me My Voice" and former chief marketing officer and board president at Levi Strauss & Co., to share her story of getting laid off from Levi's for speaking out against COVID school mandates. Jennifer shares her story of beginning to question the government's COVID policies and how Levi's claimed she was speaking for the company. This resulted in Levi's severing ties with Jennifer, arguing that ...

Ep 756 | Dystopia Update: Brain-Dead Surrogates? | Guest: Libby Emmons

Today we’re joined by Libby Emmons, editor in chief of the The Post Millennial, to discuss the ethics of surrogacy. We discuss Libby’s political journey from liberal feminist to more conservative in thought, as well as her background in theater and how the art landscape has changed from a focus on beauty to a focus on activism. We discuss how surrogacy is merely a fulfillment of adult desires to obtain posterity and legacy, with no thought given to the horrible effects it can have on the child, ...

Ep 755 | Revival at Asbury University?

Today we're talking about the "Asbury Revival," currently taking place at Asbury University in Kentucky. Last week, after a regular weekly chapel service at the university, students didn't leave. Instead, they continued worshiping and have not stopped for over 130 hours and counting. There have been reports of people traveling cross-country to experience this unplanned event, and many have claimed it's unlike other "revivals" that have left some skeptical. We cover the important questions that n...

Ep 754 | 'UFOs' & Ohio Disaster: What’s REALLY Happening | Guest: James Jay Carafano

Today we're joined by James Jay (Jim) Carafano, Vice President for National Security & Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, to discuss these mysterious UFOs that have seemed to puzzle the Pentagon over the past few weeks. The truth is, they're likely a lot less mysterious than people are being led to believe. It's not been released that these flying objects are, in fact, balloons as well. We break down where they probably came from and the science behind why they all seem to look diffe...

Ep 753 | 'He Gets Us': The Good, the Bad & the Unbiblical

Today we're discussing the 'He Gets Us' campaign, as promised! The $100 million advertising campaign seeks to promote Jesus and Christianity through TV spots in prime time, billboards, and social media feeds. These ads portray Jesus as a refugee, an activist, and an influencer, among other characteristics, and aim to communicate his relatability to modern problems (ultimately leading people to the "He Gets Us" site). Two of these ads ran in last night's Super Bowl and made big waves among Christ...

Ep 752 | YouTube Kids, Disney+ Go All In On Queer & Critical Theory | Guest: Aldo Buttazzoni

Today we're joined by Aldo Buttazzoni of PragerU to discuss his recent exposé on YouTube Kids content and the new controversial Disney+ "Proud Family" show. In this report, posted via Twitter, Aldo reveals what disgusting content is not only made available, but advertised to kids upon first creating an account. One account, called "Queer Kid Stuff," breaks down the infinite sexualities in the LGBTQ+ group and details what each letter means. We also discuss Aldo's trip to the Los Angeles Zoo Drag...

Ep 751 | Biden’s Absurd State of the Union Address

Today we're talking about Biden's State of the Union address last night. We cover some of the funniest moments from the night – Biden gaffes included – but we also break down some of the topics he brought up, from the praise of abortion (cue roaring applause from the Democrats) to violence and gun control to taxes and oil. The Republicans were particularly heated throughout the speech, yelling back at the president's claims on fentanyl at the border and the GOP's supposed plans for Social Securi...

Ep 750 | Is Andy Stanley Gay-Affirming? | Guest: Jacob Kersey

Today we're talking about Andy Stanley's latest controversy after he said in a conference speech that gay churchgoers seem to have a lot more faith than straight ones. We explain why the language Stanley uses, as well as his dismissal of scripture (calling relevant verses "clobber passages"), is ultimately unloving, as it dismisses the need for repentance for both this lifestyle and the reliance upon "sexual identity." We break down exactly what he said in his speech and give some background inf...

Ep 749 | Grammys Go Satanic

Today we're discussing Sam Smith and Kim Petras' Grammys performance, which featured blatant satanic imagery including Smith dressing up as the devil, Petras dancing in a cage, and dominatrices wearing satanic headgear. We take a look at what their inspiration was for the performance (hint: it's ridiculous) and why it's yet another example of Hollywood's obsession with satanic imagery. We talk about how, while this blatant satanic worship is worrying, it's not the biggest concern we should be fo...

REPLAY: Kids Are Not Public School Missionaries | Guest: Dr. Voddie Baucham

Today we're joined by Dr. Voddie Baucham, dean of theology at African Christian University in Zambia, to discuss the current state of the country and the topics of public schools, race, diversity, and Christian nationalism. First, with the midterm election coming up in two weeks, we look at how Christians can come to terms with where we've found ourselves as a nation in the midst of drag queen story hours and corporate CRT policies. We talk about the depravity of public school curriculum and the...

Ep 748 | From Drag Queen & Drug Dealer to Jesus Follower | Guest: Benjamin Blake Howard

Today we’re joined by Benjamin Blake Howard, pastor and author of "From Mascara to Manhood," to discuss his story of leaving a life of homosexuality and drag queen performance and finding the Lord. We discuss his upbringing and what events led to him creating his “drag character,” as well as why it was so appealing to him at the time. He shares about his decision to leave drag behind, his struggle with homosexuality, and how he ended up at a ministry school (of all places), where he ultimately f...

Ep 747 | No, “Whiteness” Isn’t to Blame for Tyre Nichols’ Murder

Today we're talking about the tragic death of Tyre Nichols and the aftermath, which included riots and calls for social justice, many claiming that the killing was due to "systemic whiteness," despite the cops who killed him all being black. It's a very good thing that the officers are being held accountable, yet it's incredibly sad to see the reaction immediately shift to race. What really constitutes justice in this case? We look at how the officers involved were hired due to lowered departmen...

Ep 746 | Crowder vs. DW, Predestination & the Importance of Shame | Q&A

We're finishing off the week by diving into some of your questions! Is the "He Gets Us" campaign biblical? Is the death penalty justified if Jesus paid for our sins? What do we REALLY think of the Daily Wire/Steven Crowder drama? We'll answer these questions and cover many other topics such as predestination, dating apps, and dinosaurs. --- Timecodes: (00:50) Intro / Modern medicine (07:50) The Daily Wire / Crowder drama (11:25) 'He Gets Us' campaign (16:47) Would you rather eat oatmeal for the ...

In her new book, Jinger shares her theological journey from following a fundamentalist leader to finding freedom in Christ.

Ep 743 | The Deadly Consequences of Self-Worship

Today we're talking about life and death – abortion, euthanasia, and the death penalty. First, we cover some solemn statements from Biden and Kamala Harris on what would have been the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade as they offer their condolences that more lives can't be ended by abortion. We talk about just how important it is for Christians to be on the side of life and how Christian doctrine has no room for the pro-choice belief. Then, we look at the ever-increasing normalization of euthanas...

Ep 742 | Welcome to America: Say Gay or Get Out

Today we're talking about an NHL hockey player, Ivan Provorov, who refused to wear a pride flag jersey for an NHL charity warm-up, citing his Russian Orthodox faith and asking that reporters respect his decision. The NHL is becoming more and more known for promoting the LGBTQ agenda and striving to be "inclusive." We look at the outrage from journalists at Provorov's decision, including one analyst who suggests that Provorov go back to Russia if he doesn't agree with the LGBTQ agenda. We also ta...

Ep 739 | Beth Moore, Childhood Obesity Pills & the Gas Stove Ban

Today we're discussing the American Academy of Pediatrics' new childhood obesity treatment guidelines, which suggest surgery and medications in severe cases of childhood obesity. Of course, we've seen obesity rates skyrocket in the past few years due to lockdowns and school closures, as well as the increasing glorification of obesity in Hollywood and the music industry. We talk about what real solutions might look like, without the insanity of surgeries and pharmaceuticals not intended for child...

Ep 738 | My Response to 'Christian' Pro-Choice Congresswomen | Guest: Ericka Andersen

Today we're discussing the "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act," which was passed by the House yesterday. This bill would enforce that babies born alive in attempted abortion procedures receive medical care to help them live or admit them to a hospital. Unsurprisingly, all but one Democrat opposed the bill. We look at some of the debates from the House, namely from Democratic congresswomen who think the bill is extremist. One even claims Scripture as evidence for her pro-choice beliefs...
