Why didn’t Donald Trump mention the Epstein files during the longest State of the Union address in history? In this episode of The Rip, Zach Rippey breaks down the key moments from the speech, the good, the bad, the weird, and why so many Americans still have questions about accountability.

Plus — we dive into the latest alien disclosure buzz and what the Bible actually says about the unseen realm, and we react to Candace Owens’ new Bride of Charlie series and the growing controversy around Erika Kirk and Candace Owens. As always, we’re ripping through the headlines, roasting culture, and bringing a biblical lens to the chaos. The answer is JESUS!

Mentoring the next generation shouldn’t feel dangerous… but in today’s culture, even good intentions can be misunderstood.

So how do you mentor kids without getting accused?

In this powerful conversation with Jeff and Tina Newberry, we break down how to mentor safely, biblically, and with integrity, while protecting both the child and yourself. If you’re a parent, pastor, coach, youth leader, or business owner pouring into the next generation, this episode is for you.

We talk about:

• Why mentoring feels risky in today’s culture

• Healthy boundaries that protect everyone

• Why accountability partners matter more than mentors

• The 80/20 leadership principle that multiplies impact

• The 7 lies Satan tells kids — and how to combat them with truth

• Leaving a legacy IN your kids, not just an inheritance FOR them

If you care about raising strong, grounded, kingdom leaders, don’t miss this one.

Follow I Like Birds for more real conversations on faith, leadership, and culture.

"We went to the abortion clinic… but they were 14 days too late."

Justin Gordon shares the moment his mom told him that she and his father attempted to abort him and how that new information changed everything.

He opens up about growing up feeling rejected, dealing with fatherlessness, walking through separation and divorce, and encountering Jesus in the darkest season of his life.

We talk about:

• Discovering he was almost aborted
• Breaking generational cycles
• The fatherlessness crisis in America
• Choosing joy in suffering
• What it really means to be born again
• Street evangelism and bold obedience

This is a story about identity, healing, masculinity, redemption, and the power of God's hand on a life in the womb. God has a plan for your life!

Alpha and Omega Pest Control | DFW 

Need your bugs GONE? 

One Call Kills Them All! 

Call Tim Davis @ 817-426-4445 and this will be the beginning & the end of your pest problems: 

We open the show by roasting the Super Bowl halftime outrage, Trump's remarks about Bad Bunny just days after a racist monkey meme video, and of course, we roast the strange silence around far more serious stories dominating the news cycle, like the "Epstein Files"

Then we dive into our main story of the episode:

Was Landon Schott’s response after visiting Robert Morris in prison truly biblical, or did something about it feel off and out of touch?

Join us on "The Rip" as Zach Rippey unpacks the controversy surrounding Pastor Landon Schott’s prison visit with Robert Morris, affirming that mercy, forgiveness, and prison ministry are clearly biblical.

But I also wrestle honestly with what happens when mercy goes public, critics are labeled “demonic,” and the voices of victims feel sidelined in the conversation. We watch Landon's response video and this isn’t a cancel culture rant or a hit piece; it’s a real-time processing of leadership, accountability, and how the Church navigates abuse, repentance, and restoration in front of a watching world... even when they don't go to "Your church."

Again, I like a lot of what Landon Schott does, but this one just felt off, arrogant, and prideful when I believe he knew people would be triggered by his prison visit.

It's like poking a beehive and getting mad when the bees start buzzing around you. Except these Bees don't like it when Pastors sexually abuse children...

We close the show by zooming out to cultural leadership failures outside of the church, from Trump’s halftime comments to tone-deaf accountability... asking how Christians should respond when power, ego, and poor judgment collide. The answer is JESUS!

Welcome to "The Rip" a new series we are doing on I Like Birds where we rip into the biggest headlines, viral stories, and cultural moments that need to be spotlighted in a biblical perspective.

Join us for the very first episode of "The Rip" as we examine recent investigations by Mike Winger involving allegations tied to Shawn Bolz, Todd White, and leadership accountability within Bethel Church, through the lens of Luke 8:17 and 1 Peter 4:17.

We then shift to cultural exposure surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein massive document releases, discussing public figures mentioned, such as Bill Gates, Jay-Z, Harvey Weinstein, Pusha T, Prince Andrew, and Brett Ratner.

The conversation continues with faith entering the mainstream through moments involving Nicki Minaj, Jelly Roll, Brandon Lake, and reflections on the cost of public faith, especially as we saw at the Grammys.

We close by addressing Scripture, celebrity, and true surrender through LeBron James, emphasizing that the Bible is not a quote for motivation but a call to follow Jesus as Lord.

We are praying for Lebron, Kanye, and Justin Bieber, as this is a unique opportunity to choose life over darkness.

Sheesh, have you seen the mess involving Bethel Church and fake prophetic words being given by Shawn Bolz? This man was combing through Facebook profiles and doing Google searches to prophesy over people at conferences and church services... Pastor Bill Johnson heard about it directly from the victims and still platformed Shawn and didn't do much about it. Thankfully, Bethel leadership apologized for their lack of discernment, poor judgment, and failure in leadership.

Episode Notes:

A lot of darkness is coming to the light as Bible Teacher and successful YouTuber Mike Winger investigates Shawn Bolz's role in fake prophetic words and the spiritual manipulation that took place, the cover-up culture, and the mishaps of Bethel Church.

A few days later, a new four-hour investigation video came out about Todd White, and it’s not looking good. We are unpacking this and what the church is supposed to do next as we navigate this news.

God Gave Me a Dream to Leave the Trap… Three Weeks Later It Got Raided

In this episode, Dino and his wife Rossi from SFG Studios share the true story of walking away from street life just in time—and how one decision changed everything. At the time, they were living in a trap house, selling drugs, and one step away from prison. They left with no car, no money, and no plan, ending up living in hotel rooms. Just three weeks later, the trap house they walked away from was raided, with arrests made and lives lost. They would have been there.

What followed was real life. Hotel hopping. Job rejections. Humble beginnings. Rebuilding a marriage. Raising kids. Losing friends. Slowly watching things turn around. Today, they’re making music, doing prison outreach, and using their past to reach people who feel stuck where they once were.

This deep convo covers leaving the trap they were trapped in, the dream that triggered everything, and almost going back to prison. Starting over from zero, faith, money, mindset, survival, moving from street life into prison ministry, and why resources matter when you want to help people.

This conversation is raw, honest, funny, and real.

AI, Aliens, and the antichrist are some buzzwords we need to look into today as Christians! Elon Musk has some wild words that warn about the dangers of AI and how it's essentially summoning the demon!

Bishop Alan DiDio, comes on to answer these bone-chilling questions: - What should Christians do about AI? - Will AI benefit the AntiChrist? - Are Aliens real? Is the government hiding their existence? - Why are media personnel and government officials calling them something different now? This is a throwback to one of the most popular episodes of I Like Birds. Bishop Alan Didio drops wisdom about AI being an all-knowing technology that resembles what we saw during the "Tower of Babel" times.

He encourages Christians to utilize it to spread the gospel.

Powerful conversation that is still reaching people all over the world.

What happens when a metal comedy creator reaches 1 million followers on TikTok and chooses to boldly rep Jesus along the way?
In this episode, my good friend Matt Reed shares how he grew a massive platform without preaching but instead used humor, creativity, and scripture in captions to become a bridge between faith and heavy metal culture. We also dive into the power of asking and why bold faith requires bold requests, how opportunities open when you stop playing small, and what happens when you ask God (and people) for more.
This conversation is honest, funny, and encouraging for anyone trying to live out their faith, pursue purpose, and trust God with the next step.

Jesus is Perfect Theology, and the Church is missing JOY.
In this conversation, Lucas Bessey, Judah Tuvyana, and Ethan Bohn flip the script on fear-based faith, religious performance, and burnout in the modern Church.

All 3 pastors unpack why grace transforms what pressure never could—and how joy, laughter, and shared vision are healing real people and building real community in Ada, Oklahoma.

You’ll hear the heart behind their family-friendly Christian TV show Joyopolis, and how creative storytelling is reaching people who would never step inside a church.

If faith has felt heavy, exhausting, or joyless, this conversation might explain why.
