In this thought-provoking episode, Becket Cook delves into the state of same-sex marriage a decade after the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges decision (2015), which legalized gay marriage across the U.S.

Reflecting on an article by Noah Hickey in The Dispatch, Becket Cook, a former member of the gay community turned Christian, explores why marriage equality has seemingly faded from LGBTQ activism. Citing cultural shifts toward intersectional issues like trans liberation and racial justice, the discussion critiques the prevalence of non-monogamy in gay male relationships and questions the impact of same-sex marriage on traditional values.

With personal anecdotes, references to influential figures like Andrew Sullivan, and a conservative Christian lens, the video challenges viewers to consider whether the "experiment" of gay marriage has succeeded or failed, while speculating on its future. A compelling blend of cultural analysis, personal testimony, and social commentary.
