From the Alex Haley Memorial in Annapolis, Dr. Gary Kellner reflects on the story of Kunta Kinte — a story about identity, memory, and truth.

This episode is not about blame or condemnation. It’s about understanding who we are, where we’ve been, and why the stories we tell — and refuse to tell — shape the future of a nation.

At a time when uncomfortable chapters of American history are being softened or erased, Fair Game asks a simple but urgent question: Can a republic endure if it forgets its own story?

America loves the lone hero—but history tells a different story.

In Episode 04 of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner explores the life of Marquis de Lafayette, a 19-year-old French ally whose courage and character helped shape the American Revolution.

Lafayette’s story reminds us that independence was not a solo achievement—and challenges us to reconsider what cooperation might look like today.

Why do so many people feel disconnected from church?

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner explores the real reasons people walk away from church — from awkward church culture and religious control to entertainment-driven worship that replaces genuine connection.

Jesus didn’t focus on getting people into church buildings. He focused on connecting people to God. Somewhere along the way, the church confused systems with spirituality — and many people felt it.

If you’ve ever loved God but struggled with church, this conversation is for you.

Fair Game is a podcast about faith, culture, and the questions nobody wants to ask — but everyone is thinking.

Christmas often arrives with joy — and leaves us exhausted.

In this Christmas Special 2025, Dr. Gary Kellner reflects on Christmas burnout, the longing for renewal, and the quiet truth at the heart of the season: Emmanuel, God with us. A thoughtful conversation about faith, hope, and why Christmas still matters in a noisy, divided world.

Fair Game is where faith, culture, and hard questions meet — with grace, truth, and humor.

Why are two ideologies that should be enemies working together?

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner explores what he calls an unholy alliance between radical Islam and radical Marxism—a partnership showing up on college campuses, in global protests, and across modern political movements.

Using real stories and recent events, we look at how slogans and emotional activism are replacing reasoned debate, why extreme ideologies can unite despite deep contradictions, and what this means for free speech, public discourse, and human decency.

This is a conversation about politics, faith, culture—and the responsibility each of us has to think clearly in an emotionally charged world.

America’s crisis runs deeper than politics—it’s an escape from reason. Dr. Gary Kellner explores how sentiment overtook common sense, why “your truth” falls apart, and what wise decision-making means for the nation’s future.

Fair Game is a podcast where we ask honest questions about politics, faith, and culture.  America has become like a bad marriage characterized by a list of things we can't talk about. On Fair Game, nothing is out of bounds. No topic is too hot to handle. On Fair Game, you'll find space for honest questions and, hopefully, you'll get honest answers. If America is going to survive, we need a place to grapple with the tough issues. Welcome to Fair Game.
