Pride Month, Ukraine drone attack, Elon Musk tensions & ‘Would You Rather’ game | Ep. 22
This week, we’re breaking down the headlines shaping our world. We start with Pride Month and explore how corporations are responding this year—what’s changed, what hasn’t, and why it matters. Then, we shift to unpacking Ukraine’s latest drone strike inside Russia and what it signals for the future of warfare. Finally, we lighten things up with a round of “Would You Rather” and a quick analysis of what’s going on with Elon Musk leaving DOGE and slamming Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill”. Plus, a quick preview of the NBA Finals, Stanley Cup Finals, and a return of a McDonald's favorite. Pull up a chair and join the conversation—we’re glad you’re here!Topics(00:23): Pride Month: Cultural shifts and corporate responses(10:45): Biblical perspective on Pride Month(15:57): Ukraine's drone attack: A new era in warfare(24:39): Exploring the impact of AI on modern warfare(25:26): The sovereignty of God in uncertain times(31:26): Would You Rather (36:53): Rising antisemitism and recent attacks(38:27): Elon Musk's shifts and political showdowns(41:42): Upcoming sports events and McDonald's snack wraps(44:41): Conclusion and call to actionResourcesMailbag:
