This week on Faith & Freedom, Shemane is joined by her husband, Ted Nugent, as co host for one of the most heartfelt episodes yet—featuring cultural firestarter Russell Brand and MasterChef winner Whitney Miller. From Russell’s raw, redemptive testimony to Whitney’s faith-fueled cookie mission, this episode is packed with truth, courage, and a little bit of sweetness. Whether you’re curious about faith, fired up about freedom, or just craving a really good cookie—this one’s for you.

[00:50] Russell Brand on Addiction, Faith, and the Fight for FreedomActor, comedian, and author Russell Brand sits down with Shemane and Ted for an unfiltered, deeply personal conversation about his journey from fame and addiction to finding Christ. He shares how a health scare with his son completely changed his worldview—and led him straight to the Gospel. Russell opens up about how he went from mocking faith to building his life around it, and from questioning the Second Amendment to fiercely defending it. They talk cancel culture, hunting as a spiritual experience, and why building a strong Christian community matters now more than ever. It’s thoughtful, honest, and full of wisdom.

 

[37:08] Whitney Miller on Making Cookies Great AgainWhitney Miller, who won the very first season of MasterChef at just 22 years old, joins Shemane to talk about her journey from home baker to founder of Whitney’s Cookies. She shares how her faith and love of baking led her to ditch artificial ingredients and dyes in favor of real, wholesome goodness. Whitney talks about what it was like facing Gordon Ramsay in the kitchen, starting a business during a global shutdown, and why she believes in baking with purpose. Her cookies are as intentional as they are delicious.
