After nearly a year and a half your host Levi Brickley returns with a with a conversation with special guest Trace Johnson.

In this episode, we step into the collision zone where conspiracies, cultural lies, tribalism, and faith fight for control of the modern mind. This isn’t a tour through fringe theories it’s an examination of why people cling to narratives that fracture communities, distort truth, and reshape identity.

We break down how group identity becomes a substitute for personal conviction, how tribal loyalty replaces discernment, and how entire movements political, cultural, and even religious can drift from truth while insisting they’re defending it. When belonging becomes more important than believing, people stop asking “Is this true?” and start asking “Does this keep me in the tribe?”

From the algorithms that reward outrage to the cultural myths that shape our assumptions, we explore the forces that pressure individuals to conform, comply, and collapse into groupthink. And then we contrast that with the call of Christian faith: a call to clarity, humility, and courage in a world that profits from confusion.

This episode challenges listeners to reclaim their minds, resist manipulation, and step out of the identity wars long enough to see what’s actually happening beneath the noise. It’s not just about spotting lies it’s about understanding why lies feel safer than truth when a tribe is offering belonging.
