    We have become such a judgemental society. In today's episode, we are talking about 3 stories from the past week that show just how involved and critical we are of our fellow man. American Idol producers and judges are under fire for sending home a moderately talented 16-year-old transgendered boy, a mom and wife in California sees her 3 high school kids kicked out of their Catholic school for having an OnlyFans account and Good Mythical Mornings' Rhett and Link are in the crosshairs for speaking the truth about "Christianity". This truth could cost them millions of subscribers on YouTube. All that and more on today's episode of The Steve Freeman Podcast!
