Today, we're speaking with Brandon Showalter, a journalist with the Christian Post who covers the spread of transgender ideology and the ways it hurts children. The truth is, the rapid rise of gender ideology is being pushed by a small group of wealthy elites, rather than rising from a grassroots level. There's money to be made for them as well, and the medical industry profits greatly from the demand for medication and surgery. All this results in confusing and sometimes harmful circumstances for kids in the name of "tolerance."

Today we discuss HBO's recent Nickelodeon documentary "Quiet on Set" that details alleged and proven instances of child abuse in the child-acting industry and specifically at the kids' network Nickelodeon. The series highlights the careers of Amanda Bynes, who famously struggled with substance abuse and mental health issues after she stopped acting, and Drake Bell, who has now come out with his own shocking and tragic testimony of being abused by a Nickelodeon dialogue coach. What does this mean for the acting industry at large? What should parents do if their children want to get into entertainment, and do kids have a place at all as the household breadwinner?

Ep 989 | Nickelodeon Has a Predator Problem

Today we discuss the recent controversy over Mark Driscoll's public rebuke of a stripper's performance during the opening of the Stronger Men's Conference. Magala took off his shirt, ascended a pole, and swallowed a sword at the event, which was organized by James River Church in Missouri. Was Driscoll out of line? Plus, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner's daughter recently came out as transgender - we go through some other children of celebrities who have also become LGBTQ+. And recent maulings by Pitbulls beg the question: should the breed be banned?

Ep 986 | Steven Furtick Gives a Master Class in Narci-gesis

Today we’re joined by BlazeTV contributor Delano Squires to discuss social justice activists and DEI, marriage and the family, and whether or not Martin Luther King Jr. was a Christian. Did MLK believe in the bodily resurrection? If not, does this mean his work was NOT beneficial to society? Plus, South Carolina women's basketball coach Dawn Staley recently said biological men should participate in women's sports if they identify as women. But does she really believe this, and what are the implications?
