Ep 839 | How Christian Women Got Played by Progressivism | Guest: Chris Rufo
17/07/2023 Duration: 45minToday we're joined by Chris Rufo, journalist and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, to discuss where radical leftist ideologies came from and what people and groups are responsible for their infiltration of our institutions. We look at the history of Marxist ideas in America, where they stemmed from, and what the impetus was to bring them to different institutions. Many of the CRT ideas we see today actually are a repetition of radical ideas from the 1960s, which also resulted in violence and anarchy, and today's pushes toward these ideas are part of a 50-year plan. But why did academia accept these ideas about reshaping society when other institutions took much longer to? We discuss some things over the past 50 years that have accelerated the infiltration of these ideas from the street to academia and then to other institutions, which include using corporations and moral manipulation. We also cover why it's so easy for people to stay in a state of denial and compliance rather than standing up against

Ep 838 | Andrew Tate, Margot Robbie & the Danger of the 'Red Pill'
13/07/2023 Duration: 57minToday we're starting off with news of California Democrats blocking a bill that would make child trafficking a felony. The inclusion of trafficking a minor as a “serious felony” would make that crime ineligible for plea bargaining in most circumstances, but Democrats claim this change would only increase our "investments in systems of harm." We explain why this twisted, evil position is the natural conclusion of Democrat policies and reiterate why Christians should not be voting for this party. Then, in the past few days, posts have popped up from "red pill" accounts claiming that Margot Robbie is "mid." We take a look at this delusion and where it possibly stems from, as well as the ever-popular woman-hating philosophy poisoning these people. We also look at CNN coverage of one couple’s abortion, which argues that the worst part of it all was that the couple couldn’t hold their baby’s remains after the abortion. Then, a look at the phenomenon of DINKS (dual income no kids) arguing that childless people are h

Ep 837 | The Pfizer-Biden Push For Puberty Blockers | Guest: Spencer Lindquist
12/07/2023 Duration: 41minToday we're joined by Spencer Lindquist, field reporter for the Daily Wire, who has recently reported on two different National Institutes of Health grants that awarded taxpayer money to clinics promoting so-called transgender care for minors. We cover the facts from these stories and explain the big money behind the push for transgender "treatment." Spoiler alert: Pfizer is invested. Then we look at a story of a smart home run largely by Amazon devices being shut down after a delivery driver misheard a "racist" remark from the man's Ring doorbell. We cover how destructive this is going to increasingly become when we must succumb to the rules and regulations of corporations just to function. Then, the FBI posted a call for crime tips specifically appealing to ... Taylor Swift fans? We break down all the big government, big corporation, and big pharma nonsense. --- Timecodes: (01:23) Intro (5:20) Interview with Spencer begins (24:54) Amazon devices shut down (34:55) FBI wants Taylor Swift fans to snitch --

Ep 836 | Surrogacy Horror: Gay ‘Dads’ Demand Abortion | Guest: Brittney Pearson
11/07/2023 Duration: 01h02minToday we're joined by Brittney Pearson, a mother of four and a two-time surrogate who found herself in a horrific situation when she was diagnosed with aggressive cancer 24 weeks into her most recent surrogacy journey. Since the baby she was carrying was already viable, she could have delivered the baby early and doctors could have attempted to save the boy, but the two men who hired Brittney refused to go that route. They wanted the “fetus,” as they called their son, aborted, even when Brittney and her family members offered to adopt the child. Brittney shares her gut-wrenching story, walking us through the details. We give a little background on surrogacy and share some stories in the news that further prove Brittney's story is not the only horror story out there.

Ep 835 | 'Sound of Freedom' Sabotage: What’s Going On? | Guest: Tim Ballard
10/07/2023 Duration: 34minToday we're joined by Tim Ballard, anti-sex-trafficking advocate and former special agent for the Department of Homeland Security, who has conducted multiple rescues of children who have been kidnapped and sold for sex. His story is the center of a new box office hit, "Sound of Freedom," starring Jim Caviezel, which shines a light on the horrors of the global sex trafficking industry. The media, though, aren’t happy about this film and its success – they’re calling it part of a QAnon conspiracy theory. We discuss how close to reality the film is and its wild box office success in relation to Disney's new Indiana Jones movie. We take a look at some statistics and the fact that the media attempting to push people away from this film will only push people to the right. We look at other recent stories of child trafficking happening right here in the U.S. and explain the reason this is becoming more and more of an issue: Not shockingly, most of it comes down to porn and the destruction it causes. Tim explains how

Ep 834 | Did SCOTUS Legalize LGBTQ Discrimination?
06/07/2023 Duration: 52minToday we take a deep dive into the Supreme Court's recent decision in the case 303 Creative v. Elenis, which the Left falsely claims will give Christians the right to discriminate against the LGBTQ community. We set the record straight on these misconceptions, debunk some high-profile influencers' opinions on the matter, and explain why the Supreme Court made the right call in this case. And, as we bid farewell to this year's Pride Month, we have a message at the end of today's episode that reminds us that, yes, some members of the LGBTQ community are "coming for our children" and also how Christians and conservatives should react when accused of "transphobia." --- Timecodes: (00:46) Intro / merch (04:08) 303 Creative vs. Elenis (14:55) Gorsuch & Sotomayor opinions (21:25) Sharon Says So (22:59) Biden administration's response to SCOTUS rulings (26:44) 303 Creative attorney response to rulings and myths (30:03) The Mamattorney's response on affirmative action ruling (39:12) End of pride / what to say when

Ep 833 | How Christianity Makes Men Better | Guest: Nancy Pearcey (Part Two)
05/07/2023 Duration: 38minToday we're joined by Nancy Pearcey, author of "Love Thy Body" and "The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes," for part two of our discussion on the biblical view of the body and the philosophy of “toxic masculinity.” We start off with the reality that one's view of God determines one's view of masculinity. We look at ancient philosophers as well as Charles Darwin, who all believed in an innate inferiority of women. Meanwhile, it's Christians who have been trying to champion the dignity of women – it's Christianity that gives a rich, full understanding of masculinity that no other ideology does. We discuss the importance of the physical strength of men and how while feminism calls them to repress it, Christianity calls them to redirect it to something that fulfills its purpose. Nancy Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as well as Love Thy Body, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and Total Truth. She is prof

Ep 832 | Fighting the Toxic War on Masculinity | Guest: Nancy Pearcey (Part One)
03/07/2023 Duration: 52minToday we're joined by Nancy Pearcey, author of "Love Thy Body" and "The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes," to discuss the biblical view of the body and the philosophy of “toxic masculinity.” She shares her testimony and the origin of her interest in apologetics and engaging the secular culture. Her work helps Christians understand the philosophical history and legacy of postmodern ideas and their harmful conclusions – so where does the idea of “toxic masculinity” come from, and how do we confront it? We discuss how the Bible offers a better solution to things like gender identity and toxic masculinity. We explain how we should confront gender ideologues with the truth that Christians love and have dignity for the body. Across cultures, men seem to understand the purpose of masculinity, so what has corrupted this understanding, and what does Christianity have to say about it? Nancy Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as w

Ep 831 | Chrissy Teigen’s Surrogacy Announcement & No More Affirmative Action | Guest: Steve Deace
29/06/2023 Duration: 01h11minToday we're joined by one of your favorite guests, BlazeTV's own Steve Deace, host of the "Steve Deace Show," to discuss Trump's indictments and what they mean for all of us. We also discuss some differences between Trump and DeSantis and speculate where their strengths and weaknesses may play into a potential future general election. Then, the Supreme Court rules against affirmative action in college acceptances this morning, condemning race-based acceptance in universities. We explain how schools are already trying to circumvent this ruling through extreme admissions policies and how detrimental affirmative action is for society as a whole. Then, Chrissy Teigen reveals she "had" another baby via a surrogate just five months after she gave birth herself. We cover why the purposeful removal of this baby from his gestator is so tragic and why there just are no good reasons to justify something like this. --- Timecodes: (01:12) New merch!

Ep 830 | Southern Baptist Debate: Female Pastors? | Guest: Pastor Tom Ascol
28/06/2023 Duration: 49minToday we're joined by Pastor Tom Ascol of Grace Baptist Church to discuss the Southern Baptist Convention's annual meeting held a few weeks ago, where the big topic was whether Rick Warren's Saddleback Church would remain in the SBC after its new stance on female pastors. Pastor Tom breaks down what happened and the major arguments, as well as why Rick Warren's argument doesn't hold up against biblical standards. We discuss how God does in fact equip women to share the gospel and learn theology, but a pastor is not just a evangelist, nor just a theologian. We also discuss the failure of men to take responsibility and how detrimental that is to the church and to our roles as men and women. Then we take a look at a Twitter interaction between Senator Ted Cruz and Pastor Ascol regarding Uganda's anti-homosexuality act. Finally, we look at the civil code of the Old Testament versus our New Covenant direction, and explain why nothing is neutral and our manmade laws do need to be based on some worldview – the quest

Ep 829 | Demi Lovato Needs Jesus
27/06/2023 Duration: 57minToday we're starting off with a much-needed, good-news story of a firefighter who found a baby in a Safe Haven Baby Box at his fire station and proceeded to adopt her. We talk about the beauty of God knowing exactly what family this little baby was going to be a part of. Unfortunately, it's not all good news. We also look at Demi Lovato's new song "Swine," which is a vulgar pro-abortion anthem. We read some of Demi's crass lyrics and explain why we actually just feel bad for how lost she is. Then, we discuss the eight-year anniversary of the Obergefell v. Hodges decision and the many arguments that this breakdown of the family would not lead to even more extreme definitions of family. Despite the claims that Obergefell wouldn't lead to polygamy, a comparison between 2015 and now proves otherwise. One example of the depravity we've found ourselves in is the Seattle Pride parade, which featured a group of fully naked men riding bikes directly in front of children. We explain why mothers and fathers are not inte

Ep 828 | I Called Obama Evil. Christians Got Mad. Who’s Right?
26/06/2023 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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 Duration: 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
