Kyle continues his series on becoming an apologist without getting an advanced degree by interviewing Clinton Wilcox.  Clinton is a Christian, but he mostly engages in pro-life speaking and debate.  He has defended the pro-life position in both written and verbal form for years and he has done this without getting an advanced degree.  Despite this, he is very intelligent and informed on the topic.  In this interview, I ask him how he got into pro-life apologetics and how people can prepare themselves to intellectually defend the unborn without having to spend thousands of dollars and years of time getting a degree. 

Aaron Gleason and Kyle Hendricks come back together for another B.S. episode.  We talk about our love for the new Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse movie, which recently won an Oscar.  We also talk about other films, T.V. shows, and anime.  We talk about why the new animated Spiderman was good, how it compares to the other Spiderman movies, superhero movies in general, how these movies and anime handle drama and humor, which movie had the better Kingpin, and more.  Despite talking about our favorite entertainment, we still couldn't help but get political in the second half.  We talk about critical theory, intersectionality, and racism. 

This is an old episode from the ResistanceTV days where my good friend Paul Smith and I discuss our top ten board games. The intros and outros are intact from the original.

In this episode I (Aaron) discuss Democratic Socialism with a friend of mine who happens to be a Democratic Socialist! Hooray for Civility and freedom of thought!!! Alex (my friend) and I are political polar opposites in many ways but as you'll see genuine Conservatives and some socialists have more in common than many would like to admit. The sound isn't great but I thought it was worth it to talk to Alex in person, that's always the way I prefer to record. And AK47 would like to thank him for allowing us to record at his place and for giving us his valuable time.

The books I recommend during the discussion are:

1.  Alienated America and Obamanomics both by Tim Carney

2.  Tribe by Sebastian Junger (that may not come up in the episode, I may have recommended it to Alex before we started recording)

3. This is the most important one for this discussion: Lost Connections by Johann Hari

Cameron Bertuzzi of Capturing Christianity joins us today in the third installment of Kyle's series of interviews on how to become a competent apologist and have a good apologetics ministry without getting a formal, graduate-level education at a university.  Cameron gives advice on how to start an apologetics ministry, the importance of knowing how to market your platform, how to learn apologetics content, and how to handle the fear and anxiety that can come from discussing and debating your faith with skeptics.

Aaron Gleason has Mark Hemingway, formerly of the Weekly Standard, back on the show.  They give their thoughts on the government shutdown, the border wall, Trump, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Green New Deal, free markets, and more. 

 In this episode, I interview Evan Minton of Cerebral Faith.  I ask him how he became a Christian, how he became interested in the intellectual side of the Christian faith, and why he decided to start a blog on the topic.  I ask him for advice on how to become a good apologist without a formal education, how to deal with anxiety about having discussions or debates with skeptics, his more controversial theological opinions, and where we can read his stuff.  We also talk about some of our nerdy hobbies like video games and anime, with an emphasis on Pokemon and Zelda. 

 In today's episode, I interview Sam Harper, who blogs at Philo Christos.  I ask him how he became a Christian, how he became interested in the intellectual side of the Christian faith, and why he decided to start a blog on the topic.  I ask him for advice on how to become a good apologist without a formal education, how to deal with anxiety about having discussions or debates with skeptics, his more controversial theological opinions, and where we can read his stuff. 

I (Aaron) have on Philosophy Professor Mark Boone to discuss William James and Augustine, faith, empiricism, and some other stuff.

Check out his work page for all the relevant articles.

Most importantly though check out his youtube channel.

And also check out ricochet.com. It's the best conservative discussion on the internet.

PS: I make a comment about Sam Harris being a practicing Buddhist, that is strictly speaking not true. I'm going to do either an article or an episode discussing what is about the statement soon.

 Aaron and I risk our careers to talk about a very controversial figure, Milo Yiannopoulos.  We are giving commentary on the recent Eric Metaxas show that Milo appeared in.  We talk about the strange disconnect between Milo's beliefs about homosexuality and his lifestyle, how hosts interact with guests on interview shows, whether or not Milo is really conservative, and a host of other issues.
