  • Episode 10: Faith, Politics, Primaries, and unpacking Christian Nationalism.
    Feb 15 2024

    Episode 10 has arrived. The show has been updated with new theme music, and we've dived into the HUGE amount of political news that accumulated over the past couple of weeks. In addition, Chris has some thoughts on recent campaign stops in South Carolina by Nikki Haley and Donald Trump and then shares some candid insights on the origins and dangers of Christian Nationalism, its attachment to the current iteration of the Republican Party, and what's really behind the fear-mongering.

  • Episode 9: Justice Delayed, Republicans Afraid, and a Podcast Reborn
    Feb 4 2024

    I'm back after a long break for Episode 9! During this episode, I'll tell you about the process I've gone through over the last month, the reason for the show's brief hiatus, and some exciting plans for the future! Then, I'll discuss the postponement of Donald Trump's federal election interference trial in D.C. and why we shouldn't hit the panic button just yet, followed by some thoughts on the Republican party's seemingly boundless inability to get anything done in Congress. Finally, a brief tribute to the late actor/director Carl Weathers. Welcome back, listeners!
