Elsa Kurt is an American actress, comedian, podcast producer & host, social media entertainer, and author of over twenty-five books. Elsa's career began first with writing, then moved into the unconventional but highly popularized world of TikTok, where she amassed an organic following of 200K followers and over 7 billion views of her satirical and parody skits, namely her viral portrayal of Vice President Kamala Harris, which attracted the attention of notable media personalities such as Michael Knowles, Mike Huckabee, Brit Hume, and countless media outlets. She's been featured in articles by Steven Crowder's Louder with Crowder, Hollywood in Toto with Christian Toto, and JD Rucker Report. In late 2022, Elsa decided to explore more acting opportunities outside of social media. As of August 2022, Elsa will have appearances in a sketch comedy show & an independent short film series in the fall. Elsa is best known for her comedic style and delivery, & openly conservative values. She is receptive to both comedic and dramatic roles within the wholesome/clean genres & hopes to adapt her books to film in the future. #ifounditonamazon https://a.co/ekT4dNO

    Parenting Like It’s War (Because It Kind Of Is)
    Jul 24 2025

    Entertainment is discipling our children more effectively than church or even parents, creating an urgent need for parents to reclaim storytelling and media consumption in their homes. The real battle for kids' hearts and minds happens through the stories they absorb daily, not just in classrooms or on social media.

    • Less than 15% of media worldwide is made for kids, with an even smaller percentage containing pro-God messages
    • Today's children get 60% of their media from YouTube rather than traditional channels
    • Tech companies design content specifically to capture children's attention through tactics like seven-second scene changes
    • Parents can establish clear boundaries around device usage with designated charging stations and screen-free times
    • Reframe technology as a tool for creation rather than consumption by starting family projects that use tech for good
    • "Aria Appleton" film offers families entertainment that addresses relevant issues like adoption and bullying from a faith perspective
    • Setting reasonable rules is more effective than creating overly strict boundaries that inspire rebellion
    • Parents working long hours can be more intentional about discussing media with children during the time they do have together
    • Consider periodic "tech detoxes" to reset family patterns and assess dependency levels

    Check out "Aria Appleton" on Amazon Prime Video and find the Parent/Leader's Guide at givesendgo.com/ariaappleton to help facilitate meaningful family discussions about the film's themes.

  • Heroes and Hypocrites

    Heroes and Hypocrites
    Jul 10 2025

    Devastating floods in Texas have killed over 100 people with many still missing as the water rose with shocking speed, giving residents almost no warning or time to evacuate.

    • Coast Guard rescue swimmer Scott Ruskin saved 165 lives during his first-ever operation, also treating 230 people as the only medical manager on site
    • Politicians and celebrities quickly politicized the tragedy with false claims about weather service funding and partisan blame
    • The DOJ announced there is "no Epstein client list" despite years of public discussion about such evidence
    • Ghislaine Maxwell remains imprisoned for trafficking, raising questions about who the clients were if no list exists
    • Elon Musk's "American Party" targets congressional seats rather than the presidency, potentially holding the balance of power in close votes
    • James Gunn stated the new Superman movie is explicitly "about politics" and immigration, further alienating audiences tired of political messaging in entertainment

    Check out Clay's book "Keep Moving, Keep Shooting" - second edition now available on Amazon with the sequel "Cross the Bear" coming soon.
