In this episode of We Could Be Wrong, Christopher, Shaun, Mike, and the crew move from entertainment reviews into a thoughtful—and occasionally tense—conversation about parenting, discipline, politics, and legacy.

Christopher gives his honest reaction to the Japanese anime 100 Meters, explaining why its impressive animation did not connect with him emotionally and why he may need to watch it again. The group also prepares for a future review of A Gorilla Story: Told by David Attenborough, while Shaun recommends the suspenseful Apple TV series Cape Fear.

The conversation becomes more personal when Christopher explains his children’s bedtime routine and the different approaches he uses based on each child’s age and personality. The group debates consistency, boundaries, privacy, traditional discipline, and whether older parenting methods still work for children growing up in the age of technology and social media.

Later, the crew responds to reports that the Navy may reconsider the name of the future USS Doris Miller, currently honoring the Black World War II hero. They discuss military naming traditions, political division, and what it means to properly honor someone’s legacy.

The episode also remembers Dolly Parton and celebrates her extraordinary generosity, particularly the Imagination Library and its mission to provide free books to young children. Shaun closes the show with another edition of “Today in History,” covering notable events, cultural moments, and famous birthdays.

Are traditional parenting methods still effective—or do today’s children require an entirely different approach?

This week, we discuss bedtime battles, discipline, the anime 100 Meters, Apple TV’s Cape Fear, the controversy surrounding the future USS Doris Miller, and the remarkable legacy of Dolly Parton.

We may disagree, but remember: we could be wrong.

The documentary’s official title is A Gorilla Story: Told by David Attenborough, not “The Gorilla Story.” It premiered on Netflix in April 2026. Cape Fear is an Apple TV series starring Javier Bardem, Amy Adams, and Patrick Wilson. Reports describe the USS Doris Miller renaming as something being considered, rather than a completed or officially confirmed change. Dolly Parton died on August 25, 2026, and her Imagination Library has now distributed more than 300 million books.

In this episode, we jump into a wide-ranging conversation about movies, parenting, vaccines, culture, and the way our experiences shape what we believe. We talk about the entertainment we grew up with, how raising children changes the way you see the world, and why conversations about health and vaccines can become so personal and divided.

This isn’t a conversation about having all the answers. It’s about asking questions, challenging assumptions, laughing at some of the craziness around us, and trying to understand how we got here. From the movies we watch to the choices we make for our families, nothing is completely off limits.

It’s thoughtful, sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes funny, and exactly the kind of conversation people are having when the microphones aren’t on.

After time away, the crew is back at the table—and it doesn't take long for the conversation to go somewhere unexpected.

We start with the rise of men-only gyms and the argument that some men need a separate place to work out to avoid distraction, temptation, or discomfort around women. Is there anything wrong with wanting a single-gender space, or does the reasoning behind it say something deeper about personal responsibility, self-control, and the way men and women interact today?

Then the conversation takes a much darker turn.

Recent violence involving social media influencers and cartels in Mexico opens a larger debate about the value we place on human life. With graphic violence, road-rage confrontations, wars, and death constantly appearing on our screens, are we becoming desensitized—or does it simply feel as though the world is becoming more violent?

Mike challenges that perception with U.S. murder statistics showing that homicide has actually declined, while the group examines an important contradiction: murder can be going down while other forms of aggression, including road rage, appear to be moving in the opposite direction.

From there, the table gets bigger.

The conversation moves into war, Russia, economic sanctions, Israel, political leadership, money in American politics, term limits, election trust, and the growing frustration of voters who feel trapped between two political parties they don't completely believe in.

Could a legitimate third party change the equation? The group looks back at candidates such as Ross Perot and Ralph Nader and asks what an independent political movement would actually have to do differently to become more than a protest vote—and whether a three-party system could force Washington to compromise again.

And, as always, the show closes with Today in History, including Christopher Columbus's voyage, Thomas Edison, George Soros, and other events connected to August 12.

Funny, uncomfortable, argumentative, serious, and occasionally chaotic—this is what happens when people who don't always agree are still willing to sit at the same table and talk.

The gang is back with Anderson, and he's got something to say.

Fun get together

Chris talked about his spiritual awakening or not awakening? We discussed what spiritual awakening is and what Christianity is in the United States. The next big subject is Charlie Kirk, and this takes on a whole plethora of subjects from his philosophies and preaching to Christianity and what people feel about is preaching. Plus, what is important to the US populous and its people as we see it

Chris wants to stop talking politics as feels we are just going in circles – the goal posts keep moving?  Are men becoming losers? What is a loser? What is an INCEL – listen and find out.  Are kids hooked on social media now – do they know how to self-entertain?  Do parents use electronics as babysitters – you all know the answer already.  Are boomers more aggressive than the newer generations? The Moscow killer – Bryan Kohberger sentenced, and we discuss it.  Are kids safe today to go out to play? Finial thoughts on politics and possible democratic leaders.  Mahmoud shows up to give his feelings in the end.

🎙️ Episode Title: Only in Sports
🎧 Podcast: We Could Be Wrong

In this emotionally charged episode, the team pulls back the curtain on how the current Trump administration has impacted them personally. The conversation turns unexpectedly raw, especially as head contributor Christopher opens up about a deep shift in his perspective. Known for his playful optimism and belief in unity, Chris now seems distant, disillusioned, and increasingly jaded. His once-hopeful voice has quieted into something more somber—resigned even—as he reflects on the administration's consequences, especially for the impoverished and communities of color who supported it. “They’re going to get exactly what they deserve,” he says, in a moment that stuns even longtime listeners.

The title Only in Sports ties back to a candid, behind-the-scenes conversation captured at the episode’s start and cleverly referenced at the end. Can you catch it?

Tune in to We Could Be Wrong, the political podcast that blends real talk, personal experience, and just enough humor to keep things grounded. Politics isn't just policy—it's personal. And yes, it does matter. So vote. Always.
