  Ep 236 - You're the Oppressor: Critical Theory's War on Parents, Children, and Reality

  Aug 7, 202650 min

  The CEO of PragerU flagged it and Justin and Jesse ran it down: "adultism" is the newest critical theory movement, and it is currently being trained into educators at universities by a consulting firm that cannot run its own company according to its own principles. The idea is straightforward — adults oppress children by doing things like setting rules, making curriculum choices, and sometimes hugging them without asking first. Justin and Jesse trace the whole framework from Movement Consulting's anti-capitalist university trainings through a real April 2026 session at a San Francisco high school that explicitly labeled teachers as oppressors and students as the oppressed — and then explain where the "bodily autonomy for children" argument terminates, because that endpoint is not subtle. They also cover Karl Marx's actual family history (it is not good), the John Adams HBO scene about a drunk son that has more to say about parenting than any critical theory article, and why the church needs to be louder about this specifically. If you've ever had someone tell you that talking down to your child is oppression, this episode is the response.

  Ep 235 - Mamdani vs. Franklin & Jefferson: Epic Speech Battles of History!

  Jul 24, 202645 min

  Two weeks after reacting to NYC Mayor Mamdani's Fourth of July speech, Justin and Jesse bring in the contrast: the founders, speaking for themselves. They read Benjamin Franklin's 1787 speech calling for prayer at the Constitutional Convention — the one where he quotes three Bible verses in three paragraphs and asks why a room full of the most educated men in America forgot to consult "the Father of lights." Then they read the part of the Declaration of Independence you've never seen: Thomas Jefferson's original draft included a full grievance against the king for forcing the slave trade on the colonies, calling it "piratical warfare, the opprobrium of infidel powers." It was removed — not because Virginia opposed it, but because South Carolina and Georgia refused to sign unless it was cut. James Madison predicted there would be war within 60 years if slavery wasn't resolved. He was right. If you've ever wanted to watch two founding fathers comprehensively out-argue every modern politician without even trying, this is the episode.

  Ep 234 - The Wrong Side of the Desk: Mamdani's Speech Scrutinized

  Jul 10, 202656 min

  NYC Mayor Mamdani sat down on the wrong side of George Washington's desk on July 3rd, squinting into a teleprompter, and turned America's 250th birthday into a 15-minute grievance list. Justin and Jesse go through the whole speech live — the "masked agents stealing your neighbors away in unmarked vans" line, the wealth redistribution language, the claim that American exceptionalism belongs to those who demand more from the government, the Thomas Paine quote (that one gets unpacked in full, and it matters), and the "love it or leave it is actually wrong" closer that somehow ends with no answer to the question of what you're supposed to do instead. They also cover July 9, 1776 — when Washington actually read the Declaration to his troops in City Hall Park — and preview next week's contrast episode using a historical speech from the founding era. If you've ever watched a politician quote Thomas Paine to a room of newly naturalized citizens while sitting backward at the Founding Father's desk and wondering if he knows what any of this means, this episode is your catharsis.

  Ep 233 - The World Owes America An Apology

  Jun 26, 202646 min

  Turns out the country everyone warned the world about has air conditioning, free bread, and people who'll drive a total stranger to a soccer game for free. With the World Cup on American soil and the nation turning 250, Justin and Jesse dig into the flood of foreign tourists discovering — on camera, in real time — that America isn't the crime-ridden hellscape they were promised. They get into the viral "first time in America" reaction videos, the absurd generosity of regular Americans, biscuits and gravy as a national treasure, and why all of this abundance traces straight back to a founding built on God's word. If you've ever rolled your eyes at your own country while the rest of the world begs to get in, this episode is your reminder to look up and say thank you.

  Ep 232 - Grifting in the Name of God: When Clickbait Replaces the Great Commission

  Jun 20, 20261h 25m

  Preamble: Who doesn't like free stickers? I offer some if you find the spot and follow the directions. BUT you're gonna have to slog a decent way through the episode to find it...if you do, message us and I'll get you what you deserve ;-)  Oh look, another internet theologian has figured out how to solve America’s deepest cultural wounds, and surprise! It involves a shocking amount of state-sponsored executions and zero actual Gospel. In this episode, the guys welcome long-time friend in ministry Nathan McCargo to dissect a recent viral video where Joel Webbon asks "How can America best love Blacks?" and somehow lands on "generous use of the death penalty" for everything from murder to horse thievery. Because nothing says neighborly love quite like a statist power-trip disguised as reformed theology. The team does the unthinkable—actually looking up the data—and shocks absolutely no one by discovering that Webbon’s confident claims about "unbiased white jurors" are about as real as a peaceful internet debate. From mocking the lazy trope that "the Boomers just need to die off" to pointing out how easily clickbait grifting replaces the Great Commission, this conversation cuts through the haughty, faux-warrior vibes to expose an ideology that's radically unbiblical. Tune in for a deadpan breakdown of why you can't build a Christian culture by out-statist-ing the state, why the power of the Gospel is severely underestimated, and why your favorite online polemicist might just be trying to pay his streaming bills. LINKS  Here's a link to the article that mentions the one "study" we could find promoting white jurors as superior.
