• Sarah - A few weeks ago you commented on the need for more discussion about things we disagree on. I think it was a rerun from before Charlie Kirk died. Do you think Charlie Kirk's death has affected how you see how we should engage in debates and disagreements? (00:51)
• Pete - Regarding Charlie Kirk: Some interviewers should have invited his wife to come on their show and give her feedback, but they didn't because there are not real men in the world today (14:24)
• Luca - If you can't make it to Church consistently, what should you do? (16:47)

• Patricia (email) - It isn't only the youth who believe one way, and you can't convince them otherwise, I've friends who are much older and just shut down any conversation about a variety of topics. (41:14)
• Josie (email) - Am I sinning by not participating in the world (not watching the news)? Is my unplugging a sin? (45:43)
