When we read in John 1:14 that "the Word became flesh," we recognize that Jesus took on a human body. But did Christ take on a human soul too? Today, Barry Cooper discusses a fourth-century heresy that seems slightly off but actually makes a world of difference.

Human Rights Commissions across Canada are being accused of going far beyond their original role—now deciding cases that critics say involve speech, research, and opinion rather than clear discrimination.  Supporters call them protection. Critics call them overreach.  So what are they really doing today and should they be reformed or shut down entirely?  Join David Leis live with columnist Barbara Kay, lawyer Collin May, and professor Barry Cooper as they break down how these commissions work, how powerful they've become, and what it could mean for free expression in Canada. What policy changes are needed to correct this?

There is a word for arranging letters in the right order to give them meaning. It is called spelling. There is a word for stitching those letters together into one flowing line. It is called cursive. A spell. A curse. And before tonight is over, you will understand why the man we are about to introduce believes the architecture of modern language, modern religion, and modern power is a deliberate piece of magic cast at the human soul. Kristan T. Harris was raised in an Assemblies of God household in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. A Christian punk rocker who once wanted to be a youth pastor. He walked away from the certainties of his childhood and spent the next 20 years asking the question they begged him not to ask. What if the version of history we were handed at the door was never the real one. Tonight he walks us through it. The cult of Mystery Babylon and the king Nimrod whose mother wife Semiramis still weeps for Tammuz under every Christmas tree. The synagogue of Satan that, in his words, runs the world from above every flag. The Maxwell witness testimonies he pulled out of a sealed courtroom and put into the public record. The MK Ultra survivors he has interviewed by name. The 300 FBI files he personally unsealed on the killing of William Cooper. CERN. Charlie Kirk. Clonaid and Eve, the first human clone, born in 2001. The data centers rising right now on the lakes of Wisconsin to feed a machine you will never see. And then he walks us into the bones. Over a thousand newspaper accounts of giant human skeletons pulled out of American soil, by his own hands, from the Library of Congress archive. The Smithsonian named again and again as the recipient of the remains. And the remains, every single time, vanishing into a silence no one has ever broken. Harris is the co-founder and host of The Rundown Live. Barry Cooper called him the king of underground journalism. His raw footage from Kenosha helped exonerate Kyle Rittenhouse. And when he is asked tonight for the single sentence that defines his entire career, he looks straight into the camera and says question everything, listen to everyone, and do not believe unless you can prove it with your own two hands.

The Alberta separatism movement isn't new, but this most recent resurgence seems a little more potent. That's in part because of the passage of Alberta's Bill 14, which has made it arguably easier for citizen-led initiatives to end up on referendum ballots.And the question of Alberta sovereignty is likely to end up on a ballot by the end of the year. The Alberta Prosperity Project got the green light from Elections Alberta for its question,' Do you agree that Alberta should cease to be a part of Canada to become an independent state?' in December 2025. The group now about four months to gather about 177,000 signatures to its petition.Host Cristina Howorun speaks with Dr. Barry Cooper, a political scientist with the University of Calgary and a long-time proponent of Alberta independence about why some Albertans want to secede from Canada, what happens next and how Ottawa can put some of those concerns to rest.
