Relatable With Allie Stuckey

Today we're joined by Auron MacIntyre, Blaze News columnist and BlazeTV host, to discuss the fall of democracy, the Twitter Files, and Brittney Griner. First, we ask where the line is between voting based on our Christian worldview and theocratic rule and explain why our values cannot be separated from what they inform. We talk about how the elites are always going to try to shape our politics. Then, we look at the Twitter Files, which were released periodically over the past week and revealed inside information on how pre-Elon Twitter colluded with the government to hide information during the election and also shadow-banned conservative accounts they deemed threatening. We also discuss Yoel Roth, Twitter's former global head of trust and safety, who seems to have a quite disturbing pattern of beliefs. We look at the Brittney Griner prisoner swap and explain why descriptors put you at the front of the line for special treatment and ultimately why this was such a big virtue signal direct from the White House.

Today we're joined by a few different guests to talk about some big news stories from this week. First, Chrissy and Lee Hicks have been in the news this week after Duke University Medical Center refused to give their daughter Yulia, who was adopted from Ukraine, a kidney transplant she desperately needs. The reason? Her parents don't want her to get the COVID vaccine. While they were previously told the vaccine was a recommendation, it appears to now be a requirement. Chrissy and Lee share their story and how we can help. Then, we're joined by our friend Kirk Cameron to talk about his new film, "Lifemark," and the importance and beauty of adoption, as well as this week's news that over 50 public libraries, many of which have hosted drag queen story hours, have refused to allow Kirk a story hour for his new family-friendly book, "As You Grow," claiming the "messaging does not align." --- Timecodes: (02:40) Interview with Chrissy and Lee Hicks (24:29) Intro to Kirk interview (26:05) Interview with Kirk Camer

Today we start by discussing the American Girl company turning its back on girls. Recently, American Girl started selling a book called "A Smart Girl's Guide: Body Image" that actively encourages young girls who feel uncomfortable with their bodies to pursue gender transition. Not only does the book explicitly talk about puberty blockers for kids, it also has advice for how kids can deal with this with no input from their parents at all. It seems like American Girl went from telling young girls that being a girl is a good thing to telling them to simply stop being a girl if they don't like it. Then, we welcome our friend James Lindsay, author of "The Marxification of Education: Paulo Freire's Critical Marxism and the Theft of Education," back to the show to discuss several things, including James' recent return to Twitter, the drama surrounding an old photo of him, and why leftists can't stand to be ignored. We also talk about the leftist "religion" in general, how leftists believe they can build a paradise o

Today we're starting with an update on the Kanye West (Ye) controversy after some of you pointed out that the symbol Ye tweeted (which led to his eventual Twitter suspension) was that of the Raelian Movement, a UFO-based religious group. The story just keeps getting weirder. We discuss how this might tie into his statements of late and why his roots in black supremacy theology are problematic. Then, we look into 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, a case that questions whether Lorie Smith, an artist who runs her own design studio, 303 Creative, should be forced by Colorado law to create websites promoting messages that contradict her beliefs about marriage. We break down yesterday's arguments and explain why this is yet another monumental case to determine what free speech and religious liberty mean in this country. We finish with the tragic story of Athena Strand, a 7-year-old girl who was kidnapped and murdered by a FedEx driver. We reiterate why the death penalty is not only just, it's necessary in cases like this

Today we're diving into the Kanye West (who now legally goes by "Ye") saga that's been unraveling over the past few weeks. We break down the entire timeline, from Ye's initial controversial statements on Tucker Carlson and at Paris Fashion Week to his scary and unhinged comments against Jewish people this week. We look at some of the statements from the unreleased parts of Ye's Tucker Carlson interview and on the podcast "Drink Champs." We discuss his dinner with Trump and the controversy of Ye's relationship with Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos. Then, we talk about Ye's appearance on "Timcast," in which he stormed off set after host Tim Pool pushed back on his views on Jewish people, which was quickly followed by an appearance on Alex Jones’ “Infowars,” where he shared very clear and consistent praise for Hitler and Nazis. He was then kicked off Twitter for posting similar anti-Semitic statements. We end with some final thoughts on how we as Christians should approach “speaking out” against things like th

Today we're joined by Joshua Broome, pastor and host of the "Counterfeit Culture" podcast, to discuss his incredible story of redemption from porn star to pastor. He shares his story, from how he got into the porn industry to finding Christ. We talk about his recruitment into the industry and his findings on the horrors within, including questions of trafficking and consent. We discuss what's really going on in the porn industry, and he explains his response to the common phrase "sex work is work." Then, we take a look at his breaking point and his returning home after leaving the industry and his struggles with hiding his past. He shares his journey of meeting his wife, becoming a father, and ultimately finding true healing in Christ. We also discuss what policies should be in place to protect us from the evils of porn. --- Timecodes: (01:45) Interview with Joshua begins (14:35) Entry into the porn industry (26:35) About the industry (34:59) Response to "sex work is work" (40:22) Joshua's breaking point (

Today we're talking about the Senate's passing of the Respect for Marriage Act and how Christians should respond. We look at the reasons why this bill is so dangerous for religious liberty and discuss our utter disappointment in the weak Republicans who voted this in. Then, we're joined by Pedro Gonzalez, associate editor at Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture, to discuss his new report, "The Transgender Leviathan," which is a deep dive into the world of trans culture and ideology. We discuss how lucrative the transgender medical industry is, who is profiting from "gender-affirming care," specifically surgeries and drugs that ruin young peoples' bodies, and why exactly these entities feel incentivized to keep encouraging these "treatments." We cover the story of John Money's horrific experiments on David Reimer, a boy raised as a girl under medical advice. We talk about how it's both Democrats and Republicans who have contributed to this issue and ask how conservatives should respond and what we can do

Today we're rounding up a few news stories, but first we give an update on the Balenciaga saga after the company released yet another semi-apology. We discuss the Tampax tweet that sexualized tampons, which the company doubled down on before apologizing, as well as the NHL's tweet in support of a transgender hockey tournament, followed by the statement that "trans men are men and trans women are women." We talk about why these tweets are so off-base and the need to hold companies accountable. Then, we briefly look at the atrocious Colorado Springs shooting and the Left's heartless insistence that "anti-trans rhetoric" was the cause, only for it to come out that the suspect is non-binary. We take a look at Biden's "gender-fluid" nuclear official Sam Brinton, who was just charged with stealing a woman's luggage at the airport, and talk about the fascinating story of twin 30-year-old embryos being born. --- Timecodes: (01:00) Balenciaga update (06:04) Tampax tweet (18:02) NHL trans tournament tweet (23:35) Co

Today we're talking about Balenciaga's horrifying ad campaign. The campaign, which has faced intense backlash, featured children posing with the company's BDSM-themed items (including a teddy bear backpack), while set dressing for one photo includes a document from a court case about child pornography. The ads were removed from circulation, and Balenciaga issued something of an apology, while also blaming others for the ad. In the end, who is responsible, and where were the parents? We look into these questions and discuss why this response from Balenciaga is not good enough. Then, we talk about Tia Mowry's divorce announcement, in which she claims she put "self-love" over keeping her marriage going. We explain why this is the ultimate selfish decision, why it's detrimental for the kids involved, and why the ever-growing philosophy of "choosing your own happiness" is poisonous. --- Timecodes: (00:44) Intro: Thanksgiving recap, illness, and Christmas merch (08:20) Balenciaga ad campaign (47:41) Tia Mowry's

Today we're joined by Naomi Schaefer Riley, resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of "The New Trail of Tears: How Washington Is Destroying American Indians," to discuss what's really happening on Native American reservations. Many of us have heard of the disproportionate rates of violence and crime on reservations, but there's little information on why this is happening. One of the biggest problems isn't lack of funds, as many on the Left would have you believe – it's mismanagement of funds. We talk about how the cycle of throwing money at the problem never fixes it and discuss the horror of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978, which prioritizes keeping Native American children on reservations over putting them in safe homes. We also discuss poor education rates on reservations and look intro why Native Americans don't seem to have the same protections from crime and violence that the rest of the country does, even though they are U.S. citizens just like anyone else. Then, we ask wh

Today we're taking a break from the news cycle and deep theological dives to answer some of your questions! What brands should we buy from in order to keep from supporting woke companies?

Today we're joined by Marc Morano, founder of Climate Depot and author of "The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown," to discuss the politics of climate change ideology and the recent COP27 U.N. climate change conference held in Egypt. We discuss the global elites' need to force the doctrine of climate change upon us and explain exactly why this is the specific issue they've chosen. We look at some of the science behind their beliefs and ask if there's some truth behind any of it. One example of wishy-washy science is the former insistence that polar bears will quickly become extinct. Now we see polar bear statistics scrapped from climate change materials, as polar bear populations increase. We hear about the COP27 climate change conference and discuss why Klaus Schwab, who gave a speech at the conference, seems to be regarded as a national leader of sort despite only heading the WEF. We take a look at the hypocrisy of global leaders and regimes as they say one thing, yet live very differentl

Context is key when interpreting the meaning behind a verse of the Bible. Many Christians might believe that Jeremiah 29:11 must mean that God will give His people prosperous lives without suffering. However, when we explore the background of the book of Jeremiah leading up to the verse, we discover that it has a much richer message than that. --- Relevant Previous Episodes: Ep 192 | Most Misused: Matthew 7:1 https://apple.co/3Oh4wb1 Ep 225 | Most Misused: Psalm 46:5 https://apple.co/3tFfy0h Ep 184 | Most Misused: Psalm 37:4 https://apple.co/3UMgThU Ep 414 | Most Misused: Micah 6:8 https://apple.co/3OnAGBR --- Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book Relatable merchandise – use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're joined by Josh Hammer, conservative commentator and opinion editor at Newsweek, to discuss the election, Trump's candidacy for president, and the Respect for Marriage Act, among other new stories. We start with some post-election thoughts on candidate quality and election integrity and dive into what might have gone wrong in the campaign of a candidate like Blake Masters. We look at pro-lifers who are doing a great job furthering the cause and explain how Republican candidates could be doing better in the culture war. Then, we talk about Trump's announcement last night that he's running for president again and break down whether he might be able to win. We then look at DeSantis' policies and speculate why a younger president might just be what we need. We talk about the Senate's attempt to redefine marriage through the Respect for Marriage Act and discuss the Ukrainian missile that hit Poland yesterday and its implications. --- Timecodes: [00:45] Interview with Josh begins / post-election analy

Today, as promised, we're doing a pop culture roundup and diving deep into the harrowing implications of some of these stories. First, we take a look at a scene from Netflix's reality dating show "Love Is Blind" in which a contestant argues she would abort her future child if she knew he had Down syndrome. We discuss this type of horrifying eugenics and why it's becoming more and more mainstream. We talk about Jennifer Aniston's recent interview, in which she reveals she struggled with infertility for years, and Nick Cannon's apparent quest to populate the Earth, as he expects his twelfth child with one of his six baby mamas. Then, we discuss a female beauty pageant that awarded its top prize to – you guessed it – a man. We finish off with another round of rating celebrity low-rise jeans. --- Timecodes: [00:46] Intro [02:58] Love is Blind & eugenics [20:30] Jennifer Aniston on infertility [32:23] Nick Cannon is due for 12th child [40:45] Man wins female beauty pageant [47:41] Rating low rise jeans --- To

Today we're doing a quick news roundup and offering a call to action for pastors. We discuss the fascinating story behind FTX's cryptocurrency failure after its founder lost roughly $1 billion of customer money and look into FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried's shady ties to the Democratic Party and Ukraine. We give a little update on election results and explain why complete incompetence has resulted in the painfully slow results in Arizona and Nevada, compared to a state like Florida, which had a devastating hurricane pre-election and still was able to count votes efficiently. We also talk about the ever-growing need for pastors to step up and talk about the Genesis 1 issues of gender, abortion, family, and sexuality. These issues are not primarily political issues, but rather foundational worldview issues that are essential to our understanding of humanity, so pastors need to view these as essential in teaching as well. --- Timecodes: [00:43] Intro [01:35] Pastors and Genesis 1 issues [20:04] FTX & Democrat sche

Today we're continuing our coverage of what's going on in the news in the aftermath of the 2022 midterms. While the "red wave" we were all hoping for didn't pan out, there are still a lot of things for conservatives to be happy about, like the success of groups like Moms for Liberty that have been working tirelessly to get critical race theory and sexually explicit material out of school curriculums. We take a look at a New Yorker article whose author isn't happy about this and thinks the only explanation is that shady billionaires must be financing these concerned moms. We also take a look at some of the elections that are still yet to be called and the unfortunate reality that some states ended up voting against rights for the unborn, as well as the fact that California is now a "sanctuary state" for kids who want to change their gender. Lastly, we go over some exit polling that shows how different demographics are voting, and it turns out that Democrats largely have single women and Gen Z to thank for what

Today Delano Squires, contributor to BlazeTV's "Fearless with Jason Whitlock," joins us to co-host a biblical state of the union following yesterday's election. We go over our initial post-election thoughts, including DeSantis' massive Florida win. We discuss the Christian worldview issues plaguing our political thought – gender ideology, abortion, the sexual revolution. Where does our faith fit into our policy views, and how can Christians do a better job standing up for what is biblically important and true in our politics? We discuss the need to bring God into our arguments for human rights. Without pointing to a purposeful Creator, how are we to defend the reality behind abortion and gender ideology? We look at some political figures in the spotlight – Walker, Warnock, Trump, and DeSantis – and discuss the prosperity gospel, the Christian view of the Republican Party, and many other topics in this extra long episode! --- Timecodes: [01:15] Initial post-election thoughts / DeSantis [09:37] Worldview iss

It's Election Day! Today we give you a refresher on how important it is to get your friends to vote. We take a look at “The View” host Sunny Hostin’s comments on how white Republican women are — shocker — going to vote Republican, followed by her comparing them to roaches. We also look at Sunny’s co-host Joy Behar’s comment that the GOP is a cult. We explain why it’s in fact the Left that’s a cult and break down the real reasons Christian women will (and should) vote red. Then, we react to Trump’s recent rally, during which he created a new nickname to mock Ron DeSantis. We talk about why this was ultimately a bad strategy. Finally, we’re joined by Steve Deace, host of BlazeTV's The Steve Deace Show, to discuss the state of the midterms, the morale of the Right, and what we need to do to fight back against the Left. We also discuss Steve’s new book, “Why Thanksgiving?” which gives kids the true, Christian history behind the holiday. Watch our 2022 Democrat Campaign Ad here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg

Today we are diving headfirst into politics ahead of Election Day, which is tomorrow (go vote!). It's important for Christians to realize just how important the election is, with some issues literally being a matter of life and death for the most vulnerable group there is. As you can probably guess, that issue is abortion. We go over the reasons why this particular issue is so important for Christians to get right and why it is absolutely acceptable to be a one-issue voter if that issue is the murder of the unborn. The Left may cry that it's "Christian nationalism," but they're doing the exact same things when it comes to voting based on what they believe is morally good. We also go over a few important political races and proposals that have the potential to significantly impact the states in which they're on the ballot.
