  • EP49 - God Will Not Give You More than You Can Handle

    In today's episode of R&B Talks, Reggie and Brian briefly discuss the Trump and Biden debate, the Catholic canonization of Carlo Acutis, and the Supreme Court's overturning of the Chevron doctrine. One phrase that seems to never go away is that "God will not give you more than you can handle." Join us as we talk about why that is definitely not the case and what really should be in focus during trying times.

  • EP47 - Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act of 2024 & Gender Pay Gap

    In this episode, Reggie and Brian discuss a bill introduced by Rep. Markey called the "Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act of 2024." Another great example of anti-American, anti-independence, and pro-tyrannical, Marxist nonsense. And we have the gender pay gap myth resurfacing from the actions of a Danish football team.

  • EP42 - The Battle for Male Friendship

    There is another crisis in America these days, and that is the lack of friends between men. It is increasingly hard to make and keep close friends. We aren't talking about those people who you may talk to from time to time, but real friends are those who will stick by you and be there when you need them. Come along and let's discuss what it is like to make and be a real friend between men.

    "Two are better than one because they have good wages for their labor. For if either of the falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not a second one to lift him up. Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone? And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can stand against him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart." - LSB Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

    Forgive the lighting. Some power outages reset everything, and this is the best I could do with what time I had. So, enjoying the chicken legs of Brian and the orange beard of Reggie, you'll find this episode most entertaining. From the baptism of Russell Brand to an interesting event that occurred at a mega church to how much Reggie has a disdain for taxes, we hope you find this episode in good tidings.
