  • Kevin Howard
    Jun 23 2024

    Kevin Howard drops by again for a lively discussion about how wealth has co-opted our media and government. He references the Powell Memorandum, written in 1971, which was a blueprint for persuading the masses to support corporate takeover. This effort greatly influenced the infamous “Citizens United” Supreme Court ruling of 2010, which elevated corporate influence over individuals by allowing them to dominate large media companies and shape popular opinion, thereby vastly increasing their sway over U.S. policy.

    Numerous examples are cited illustrating how the Powell Memorandum has made the United States vulnerable to many ills, including the 9/11 terrorist attack, and contributed to the conflict in Ukraine. Kevin explains how people following the tenets of the memorandum have led to significant geopolitical consequences, challenging the mainstream narratives often presented to the public.

    Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking hour that we hope will encourage you to question everything you’re being told about America.

    May 12 2024

    Amanda Taylor drops by to discuss her campaign to represent District 103 in the Missouri House of Representatives. The House currently has a Republican "super-majority," so Amanda, running as a Democrat, has her work cut out for her. We discuss her main campaign issues, what she hopes to accomplish as a state legislator, and the current state of politics in Missouri and the rest of the nation. The day's issues may seem epic and impossible, but we break them down over this hour-long podcast, providing interesting discussion sprinkled with a bit of humor.

  • Talking Politics and Religion
    Mar 24 2024

    To keep from killing each other, people just don’t talk about the topics of politics and religion at the family dinner table or during outings with friends. This is unfortunate because these are the topics that undermine unity in our nation. Corey Nathan, however, bravely steps into this space and produces a podcast that’s unafraid to take on these topics. What results is a series of engaging, provocative, and fun conversations. The podcast is called, “Talkin’ Politics and Religion without Killin’ Each Other,” and it has logged nearly 200 interesting episodes. Join us as we discuss the political and religious divisions in our nation, how to act rationally in a politically charged atmosphere, and how your political representative can act in such an anti-Christian manner while claiming to be a good Christian.
