Today we're discussing a few controversial topics, starting with a Pride flag spotted on the set of "The Chosen," a popular TV series focusing on the life of Jesus. The flag was seen attached to camera equipment in a promotional clip and belongs to a crew member, which naturally drew a lot of negative feedback. We take a look at whether this is cause for concern and what's realistic to expect from "Christian" shows. Then we move over to Florida, where an Orlando-based convention for furries (people who enjoy dressing up as anthropomorphized creatures) announced it would ban children due to a Florida Senate bill that makes exposing children to sexual performances illegal. We discuss why this move reveals a lot about the "furry" community. Then we're joined by Florida Representative Jessica Baker, who sponsored a Florida bill that allows sexual battery against a child under 12 years old to be considered a capital offense, punishable by the death penalty. She explains why this bill is important to her and why it's essential that we punish child abuse justly. --- Timecodes: (01:06) Intro / the rainbow (15:37) 'The Chosen' Pride controversy (24:55) Furries convention (32:50) Intro to Rep.

Today we're talking about Chick-fil-A's diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, which have provoked backlash today after conservatives discovered some rather left-leaning language on the company's site. We look at what the company claims in these initiatives (and the fact that it has a VP of DEI to begin with) and share the real problems with DEI. Then, Khloe Kardashian shines some light on the dark truth of surrogacy in a new clip from her show "The Kardashians." In the show, she expresses how transactional her surrogacy experience seemed to be. We explain why she's absolutely right and why more and more people are realizing the many dark sides of surrogacy, which has more ties to human trafficking than most are willing to admit. We also offer some encouragement for the week. --- Timecodes: (00:54) Intro / Indy 500 / airport breakdown (07:58) Encouragement for the week (14:16) Chick-fil-A (31:00) Target update (34:40) Power of influence (40:30) Khloe Kardashian surrogacy --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get $30 OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.

Today we're talking about Target's pride clothing line again since news of the company's collaboration with a satanist broke. We take a look at the controversial items in the collaboration and what the artist has said about satanism and Satan. One of those messages is that "Satan respects pronouns." We explain why he's right about this – Satan is the father of chaos and lies. We look at Target's response to the backlash to its pride line, which included pulling the collection from some stores, but the company's response didn't include an apology for selling the items to begin with. We explain why this doesn't mean we've won and give a call to action: We think everyone can give up Target for at least the month of June. We also discuss Chip and Joanna Gaines' silence on this Target ordeal and explain why it's so important for these famous Christians and longtime Target collaborators to speak out against what Target has been supporting. We also give a message to those expressing animosity over the Republican primary, namely due to Governor Ron DeSantis announcing his bid for president.

Today we're joined by Peter Schweizer, American political researcher and author of many books including "Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win," to talk about the U.S. government's corruption surrounding China. For a long time, global elites have told us that the U.S. merging closer with China is a good thing, but that's been proven to be categorically wrong. This merging has only made those same elites richer, and they continue to do things like help build the Chinese military. We discuss the Biden family's ties to China and why they're so important (and often misrepresented as less drastic than they really are). The truth is that every single deal the Biden family made with China was with an individual with deep ties to the CCP's spy apparatus. We talk about what we're really giving up when we do business with China and cover TikTok, the NBA, and college campus corruption as well. Then, we look at how China pushes progressive policies in the U.S. to weakens us, while not allowing those same policies in its own country. What can we do to combat this ourselves, and is there hope from any entity of government?

Today we're joined by Shawna Holman, founder of A Little Less Toxic, to discuss her story of learning to build a less toxic life and share tips on how we can take steps in the same direction. Shawna shares her story of struggling through illness and endless antibiotic treatments, only to find that lifestyle changes would ultimately help heal her body. We discuss Shawna's approach to both simplifying your life and also making your home less toxic, even if it starts with eliminating just one toxic cleaning product. We talk about the "crunchy" movement and why the "all or nothing" mentality can overwhelm rather than help. We also discuss the balance of modern medicine – while we're overprescribing and overmedicating, modern medicine is saving lives. How do we find a good balance and correct answers to our health questions? Then, how toxic is birth control, and which methods are safer than others?
