Publisher's summary

Seth Andrews idolized Rush Limbaugh. He listened to Glenn Beck. He read Ann Coulter. He watched Fox News. He was an evangelical Christian once tethered to right-wing media, which constantly warned of an attack on American values by liberals and secular humanists. Today, Seth is a liberal and secular humanist.

This audiobook explores the Fox News culture, which both reflects and informs American conservatism, shaping public opinion on important issues like religion, government, race, foreign policy, war, protest, LGBT rights, and the Constitution. It's an exposé of conservative media's "closed systems" which constantly feed on (and feed into) public outrage, ignorance, bigotry, and fear. It's also the story of one man's personal journey into a larger and better world.

Well said.

Seth gives hope that our country can put aside it's divisive political discord and come together to do right by all its people. The history of right wing Christian Nationalism shows us that oppression does not win out over inclusion, and this book demonstrates that rational, logical, and reasonable debate can steer our ship straight. It is helpful that this comes in such an intellectual and thoughtful manner from an author well versed in each side of the debate.

Seth Doesn’t Disappoint...Again!

If you love hearing Seth’s awesome voice and listening to his shows, you’ll LOVE this one. My wife is a Fox News atheist and Trumper (I’m still not sure how that happened). She loves Seth and was willing to listen to some of it. Although she goes from zero to sixty in 2 seconds with rage when you speak badly of Donald, she remained cool the entire chapter I played for her. This is really great for anyone. It’s not aggressive or offensive and definitely stated the truth. Great book Seth! I can’t wait for your next one.

Very balanced

The amount of knowledge and wisdom Seth Andrews brings to the table is astounding! This book is very logical in its approach and avoids using emotions as a tool for the truth. I enjoyed hearing both sides of the arguments in a fair tone. He doesn't bunch all conservatives and liberals in cookie cutter groups, its nuanced and people have reasons (justified or not) in what they believe in. A great book to look into the mind of both conservatives and liberals! Great book!

Another Great Lesson

What a great eye opening trip down memory lane. This book like his Deconverted book is definitely one that hit home for me, if you question your beliefs are looking to see the mind of a thinking atheist then this one is for you. Can’t recommend both books enough!

Outstandingly insightful

If you are a fan of Seth Andrews, or know of his personality, then this book is purely for confirmation of what you already know and/or joy reading. However, if you’re new to Seth, Atheism, or are still wondering if there is hope for deeply rooted Christian understanding and deconversion, you need not to look any further. Also, for those looking to understand their opposition, what causes deconversion, or are questioning themselves and their religious beliefs, this book is for you. The information, personality, story, performance and overall experience of this book is unsurprisingly perfect. Well done Mr. Andrews.
