We head east to the legendary Gaspé coast for an unforgettable adventure chasing striped bass and Atlantic salmon. It was our first time exploring the region, except for Aldo who had been before - and the experience lived up to every bit of the hype. We were joined by our good friends Junior and David, and together we fished the rivers and coastal waters of the Gaspé while taking in the rugged beauty that makes this place so special. Along the way, we also filmed a short documentary called This Is Ours, which tells the story of the Gaspé Coastal lodge and the people connected to it. The film is currently touring in the PALM Festival and the Scale of Change festival, and this trip became a big part of that story. In this episode, we talk about first impressions of the Gaspé region, what it was like targeting striped bass and salmon in such an iconic fishery, the moments that stood out from the trip, and how the experience shaped the film. From road-trip laughs to powerful days on the water, this conversation captures the spirit of a place that quickly left its mark on all of us. If you love travel, fishing, and the stories that come from chasing fish in new places, DON'T MISS THIS EP! Special thanks to Junior and David for working their butts off to capture the film and content. AND to the fab people at Gaspé Coastal. WE LOVE YOU!

Geoff Shepard came to Washington, DC in 1969 as a White House Fellow, after graduating from Harvard Law School. He served on President Richard Nixon's White House staff for five years, including a year as deputy counsel on the president's Watergate defense team. He has written three books and produced two documentary films, as well as an off-Broadway stage play about the internal prosecutorial documents he's uncovered, many of which are posted on his website, www.shepardonwatergate.com . In this interview Geoff and I discussed how Richard Nixon came to be the President, what actually happened in Watergate, and how law fare has changed American politics over the past 50 years.

In this episode I talked with Dr. Stephen Hicks. Dr. Hicks is a philosophy professor and author. He has taught many classes at Peterson Academy including ones on Logic, Postmodern Philosophy, and Modern Philosophy.  In this conversation we discussed Friedrich Nietzsche's ethical philosophy, why he hated egalitarianism, if he was a narcissist, and why most people in the West operate out of Nietzsche's philosophy without knowing it.

In this episode I talked with Dr. Scott Jensen. Dr. Jensen is running for State Auditor in Minnesota, a campaign that he announced right after dropping out of the Minnesota gubernatorial race. Jensen is a doctor, former Minnesota State Senator, and 2022 Republican Gubernatorial candidate that raised more money than any Republican in Minnesota history and received more votes than any Republican in Minnesota state history. In light of the recent uncovering of fraud in Minnesota, some estimating $9 billion, Dr. Jensen has decided to run for State Auditor and try to fix the deep rooted fraud in Minnesota. We discussed his decision to run and his views on the Republican Party and the tactics they use to win elections. I hope you enjoy!

We sit with Indigenous Pueblo angler Norman Maktima. Norman grew up in Pecos, just outside Santa Fe, fishing the Pecos River with his father, a place that shaped both his angling and his identity as a descendant of the Pueblos of San Felipe, Laguna, and Hopi. He's been immersed in fly fishing since childhood, splitting time between the water and the vise, and by 1997 he was already guiding for High Desert Angler and earning a spot on Team USA's Youth Fly Fishing Team. Since then, he's built an elite competitive career with international medals, a U.S. National Championship title, and appearances at world championships across Europe and North America. Today, Norman designs signature flies for Umpqua, runs NMaktima Fly Fishing featuring Pueblo-inspired designs - he guides on the San Juan River, and coaches the U.S. Women's Fly Fishing Team, which recently took Team Gold along with individual Gold and Silver at the World Championships. Beyond competition, he's deeply committed to teaching and sharing knowledge, especially within Indigenous communities, using fly fishing as a way to connect culture, water, and opportunity.

#413 - Il Metodo dell'Uccello GiardiniereHo conosciuto un tipo che fa una cosa assurda per rimorchiare. Fa una specie di mini-mostra artistica nel suo giardino, creando un entrata strafichissima e le ragazze impazziscono. Ancora più incredibile è che gli oggetti della mostra sono in essenza cianfrusaglie e che sono tutte blu. E' l'uccello giardiniere. E la sua strategia per conquistare la femmina… non è cantare meglio, non è volare più in alto, non è fare il fenomeno. No. Lui fa mini-mostre di blu. Piume blu. Bacche blu. Fiori blu. Conchiglie blu. E anche… tappi di bottiglia blu, pezzi di plastica blu, cappucci di penne blu... e quando ci sono tanti blu insieme, le differenze tra i blu diventano visibili. E quello… è il segnale che le femmine cercano.Oggi ciò che è raro e che in pochi sanno fare, non è “dire una cosa nuova”. È riconoscere situazioni e problemi simili. Vedere connessioni. Saper mettere ordine. Così come il far emergere differenze reali dentro cose apparentemente simili. Perché così facendo emerge il tuo gusto, i tuoi criteri, il tuo modo di scegliere e decidere.Come si collega tutto ciò al metodo dell'uccello giardiniere?Quando metti insieme cose simili, non crei confusione. Crei un contesto che rende visibili le differenze. È come la degustazione di vino: se assaggi un rosso oggi, una birra domani, un succo d'arancia dopodomani… impari poco. Ma se assaggi cinque rossi simili, uno dopo l'altro… all'improvviso senti cose che prima non esistevano: tannini, acidità, corpo, finale.Cosa traggo da tutto ciò? La fiducia non nasce quando tu dici: “Fidati di me perché sono bravo”. La fiducia nasce quando tu fai una cosa più umile e più potente: quando aiuti gli altri a capire. Quando tu fai vedere che hai esplorato il territorio, che conosci le opzioni, che sai distinguere sfumature e trade-off, e che non stai cercando di vendere a tutti costi la tua soluzione.Morale della favola: Oggi, il modo più potente per dimostrare competenza non è dire:“Ho la soluzione definitiva”. È fare quello che fa l'uccello giardiniere: Mettere insieme cose simili evidenziando le differenze. Spiegare come ragioni, non solo cosa consigli.___________________________________________________Diventa il Punto di Riferimento nel Tuo SettorePercorso di affiancamento con Robin Good(Mar-Giu 2026)-> riempi questo modulo (3 domande)-> verrai ricontattato/a entro 24 ore-> https://forms.gle/s2erEDJMkYynEES4A__________________________________________________________________Info Utili• Sostieni questo podcast:Entra in contatto con me, ottieni feedback, ricevi consigli sul tuo progetto onlinehttps://Patreon.com/Robin_Good•  Musica di questa puntata:"Stay Gold" by Birocratic, disponibile su Bandcamp•  Nella foto di copertina:Immagine ideata da Robin Good e realizzata da ChatGPT 5.2. • Ascolta e condividi questo podcast:https://www.spreaker.com/show/dabrandafriend• Archivio del podcast organizzato per temi:https://start.me/p/kxENzk/da-brand-a-friend-archivio-podcast• Seguimi su Telegram:https://t.me/RobinGoodItalia• Newsletter in Italiano:https://robingooditalia.substack.comEssere riconosciuti come punti di riferimento fidati curando invece che creando.• Newsletter in Inglese:https://robingood.substack.comHow to be recognized as top trusted influencers by becoming top sector curators. . 

We sit with Jeffery Feczko, owner and guide of To The Gills in Baja California Sur, Mexico. From fly tying at a young age to guiding fisheries across the globe, Jeffery has built a life shaped by travel, salt, and fish. His twenties took him from Alaska, earning his 100-ton USCG Master Captain's license, to destinations like the Seychelles, where guiding iconic atolls eventually led to burnout and a realization that living in waders year-round wasn't the life he wanted. Drawn back to warm water and shore-based fishing, he went to Baja California Sur, where he now guides year-round in one of the most diverse and demanding fisheries on the planet. In this episode, we talk about why Baja stands above everywhere else he's fished - the people, culture, food, and the mighty, mighty roosterfish.  GO FISHING WITH JEFFERY: https://tothegills.net/ Follow Jeffery on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tothegills/?hl=en  Find his WICKED flies: https://farbank.com/collections/rio-signature-tyer-jeffrey-feczko  ----- HOW TO HELP SO FLY: Please go leave us a review on APPLE PODCASTS.

In this episode I talked with Dr. Mary Talley Bowden.

We talked about Trump's involvement in the Epstein files and why Trump wants to brush over the scandal. We also discussed Mary's organization, Americans for Health Freedom, and their goal to pull the COVID vaccine off the market and her efforts to make Ivermectin and over the counter drug.

This fish has fascinated us for years, but the truth is - we know NOTHING about it. So we brought Andrew on, a wicked angler who has been chasing these fish for years, to give us the low down. This episode is an intro to this incredible fish. We've only scratched the surface. Thanks for coming on, Andrew! Follow Andrew on Instagram.

Why This Episode Matters:This episode isn't about hacks, gear flexes, or shortcuts. It's about the internal work that makes a long creative life possible. Birocratic opens up about imposter syndrome, optimism, failure, discipline, and the systems he's built to protect his relationship with music.If you've ever felt behind, overwhelmed, scattered, or unsure whether you're doing “enough,” this conversation offers a grounded, human counterpoint to the pressure-filled narrative surrounding modern music careers.Who is Birocratic:Birocratic is a producer and artist known for warm, melodic, feel-good instrumentals that sit at the intersection of lofi, beat music, and instrumental pop. Beyond his catalog, he's a working musician in many forms: producer, bassist, engineer, mixing engineer, and collaborator. In this episode, we hear not just about his music, but how he thinks about building a life that can actually sustain creativity.What We Dive Into:* Being “the dumbest person in the room” and why that's a gift* Playing bass in a band after years as a solo producer* Developing your ear through listening, transcription, and real-time adaptation* Why recording yourself is one of the fastest learning tools* Optimism, accountability, and separating mistakes from identity* The concept of “personal, permanent, and pervasive” thinking* Journaling, reflection, and mental health as creative maintenance* Morning pages, voice memos, and nightly check-ins* Structure as a gateway to freedom and flow* Timers, non-zero days, and realistic consistency* Saying no, setting boundaries, and protecting creative energy* Collaboration versus solitude, and why both matter* Redefining success beyond milestones and external validationThree Key Takeaways:* Growth Lives in Discomfort: Putting yourself in rooms where you're less experienced can be humbling, but it's one of the fastest paths to real development. Being surrounded by people who are better than you isn't a failure. It's an opportunity.* Structure Protects Inspiration: Clean spaces, clear schedules, timers, and reflection aren't constraints. They're what make flow possible. When the basics are handled, your creativity has room to breathe.* Success Is a Series of Good Days: Success isn't one moment or metric. It's built from showing up, doing what you said you'd do, and ending the day feeling aligned. Stack enough of those days, and the bigger picture takes care of itself.Join the ProducerHead CommunityIf you're not subscribed yet, you'll get access to submit your released music for features, send works-in-progress for feedback, plus two free tools: The Invisible Instruments (a collection of ideas to help you in and out of the studio) and Sonic Stimulus Vol. 1 (a sample pack I made specifically for this community).

“Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed, is more important than any other one thing,” said Abraham Lincoln in a letter to Isham Reavis dated Nov. 5, 1855. Health and well-being hold high importance for many people, and the approach of the holiday season and the following new year often leaves them wondering about what changes, or resolutions, they might want to implement to improve their lives – and how to make them. In the latest episode of The UC Irvine Podcast, we're leaning on the wisdom of a pair of people who've committed their careers to providing guidance on all those topics: Matthew Landry, assistant professor of population health and disease prevention in UC Irvine's Joe C. Wen School of Population & Public Health, and Theresa Nutt, administrative director of education at UC Irvine's Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute. Landry's research interests include identifying the optimal diet for chronic disease prevention, and Nutt is a registered and holistic nurse who has also been a health and wellness coach since 2003. In this podcast, they team up to discuss why it's hard to stick to our diets during the holidays and share tips on how to avoid overindulging. In addition, they'll address prioritizing activities that benefit physical fitness and how to reframe thoughts around resolutions to encourage better success. “Fresh Healthy Perspectives,” the music for this episode, was provided by Birocratic via the audio library in YouTube Studio.

If you're like me and grew up in the public school system, you may have been taught that language, reality, and truth are merely subjective. That there is no true meaning and therefore, no true values, and purpose in life. This is the philosophical illusion that most modern Westerners are born into without even knowing it. In C.S. Lewis' book, The Abolition of Man, he attacks that very subjectivist philosophical system. But he doesn't begin his argument in a way that you may expect, in fact, he starts his abolition of subjectivism by discussing a particular green textbook that, in his time, was being used to teach children this dangerous postmodern philosophy. Lewis goes on to explain that men who adhere to this philosophy and adopt all of its inconsistencies don't merely exist in a constant state of confusion – no, they actually cease to men altogether. He says that this ideology actually leads to a full-on abolition of man – the end of humanity itself. But to understand what Lewis is trying to tell us modern people, you need to read his book along with another book written by the Oxford professor, Dr. Michael Ward – author of Planer Narnia and many other books and actor in a James Bond film, The World Is Not Enough. His book, After Humanity is a guide to CS Lewis's The Abolition of Man. So, I had a conversation with Dr. Ward about Lewis, technology, postmodernism, Artificial Intelligence, contraceptives, and logical positivism. We discussed what happens when man denies objective reality and forfeits his nature and purpose and we ask the daunting and pressing question of the modern age: What comes After Humanity?After Humanity - Michael Ward Sign up for my newsletter and never miss an episode: https://www.orthodoxyandorder.comFollow me on X: https://x.com/andyschmitt99Email me at andy@optivnetwork.com with your questions!Music: "nesting" by Birocratic (http://birocratic.lnk.to/allYL)

Over the past year Jew hatred has become a massive trend not just among liberals, but also among self-proclaimed “conservatives” like Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes. If you listen to them, you probably think the “Jews” are secretly running our society and controlling out lives. You may be convinced of the arguments made by those on the far right about isolationism and Christian Nationalism, whatever that is, and about how Americans need to stay completely out of the rest of the world are thoughtful and legitimate. You may have heard theological, philosophical, and political arguments for these things. But you would be wrong. In fact, you would be missing the whole point of what these bad faith actors like Tucker and Candace are actually doing. What their actual goal is. But Rebeccah Heinrich hasn't missed the point. In fact, she wrote a piece for The Free Press last summer called “The Right's 1939 Project” in which she dismantles the arguments made by self-proclaimed Conservative Christians like Tucker, Candace, and Fuentes and compares their post World War 2 revisionist history to the infamous 1619 project from the New York Times in 2019. Rebeccah then, later on, wrote a piece on the National Review about why Christians should support Israel. It's my opinion that Rebeccah is one of the only people in Conservative circles who is seeing the whole problem facing our culture and calling it out for what it is.

In 1943 a group of high society anti-Nazi's from Germany met together to discuss ways in which they could defy the Nazi regime and rebuild Germany after the war. What they didn't know is that at that meeting there was a spy. Someone who would betray them all. In Jonathan Freedland's new book, The Traitors Circle, he tells this unknown story of those within the Nazi regime that chose to give up everything to defy and disrupt Hitler's plans. Why? Well, it's not as clear cut as you could imagine. In fact, most of these anti-Nazi's could have stayed silent, looked the other way, and remained comfortable in their high society lives until the war was over. But they didn't. In my conversation with Jonathan Freedland, we talked about what or who could convince a group of men and women who did not need to give their lives up to sacrifice for the ultimate good of not only Germany, but the world.

Zohran Mamdani was just elected to be the next Mayor of New York City. How did an anti-American, anti-Capitalism, anti-Jew, anti-Western millennial become the most powerful person in the largest city in the United States? I wanted to know. So, I talked with Zineb Riboua – a research fellow with Hudson Institute's Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East. She's written extensively on the Middle East and the ongoing power struggles in one of the most violent and unstable regions in the world. But what does Middle Eastern politics have to do with New York City and Zohran Mamandi? Zineb argues that the ideology that led the Left to believe that Israel and Britian were the fundamentally evil powers in Europe and the Middle East because of their “colonialization” is the same ideology that Zohran used to capture the attention and votes of the suicidal Democratic ideologues in New York City. The younger generations white colonialization guilt and Third Worldism philosophy were key factors in Zohrans ability to manipulate the American people in the largest city in the country to vote for a self-proclaimed Marxist Socialist. So, what happens to New York City next? Will it sprout into a utopia or fall into oblivion? Here's my conversation with Zineb Riboua.

Nick Fuentes, Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, and Elon Musk. What do all of those names have in common? An utter lack of virtue and theological direction. Why? Because they play Marxist power games and refuse to deal with the core, fundamental problems our society faces — instead, they spend their time fighting to control the narrative and build artificial gods and platforms. And what happens when a society is filled with wickedness and immorality? Chaos.

Since Spotify deleted my last episode with Dr. Mary Talley Bowden and never responded to my appeal, this is a re-upload of that episode.The beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic started almost five years ago. You would think that in five years we would know more about what actually happened leading up to the pandemic and why, during the pandemic so many of our medical “experts” were so wrong about so many different things. If you remember, the legacy media publicly humiliated people who were using ivermectin and doctors who were giving it to their sick and almost dying patients. Mary Talley Bowden was one of those doctors. She was publicly shamed by some of the largest media outlets in the world for trying to give ivermectin to a patient who was dying during the pandemic. For doing so, she lost certain medical privileges and has been continuously investigated by the Texas Medical Board.This saga has culminated, in the past week, in a public reprimand (and who know what that even means) of Mary. You might be wondering what the goal of this reprimand is? Well, to put it simply, it's to destroy her career and reputation for speaking truth against the medical regime during the COVID pandemic. They want her silenced. Who is they? You'll be surprised to learn that the man leading the Texas Medical Board is none other than Republican Governor of Texas, Gregg Abbott. I thought the Republicans were the ones fighting against the authoritarians and oligarchs who tried to kill millions of people and control our lives during COVID – I guess I was wrong.Mary has spent years of her life fighting for her and your medical freedom. She's spent $250,000 on legal fees and has persevered through public humiliation because she believes what was done during COVID was immoral and evil. This is my interview with Mary Talley Bowden.

Weeeeeeeee had a great day at the Franklin Club in Southern Ontario! We got to hit the water with Team Canada legend and still water trout expert Ian Troup. Ian took us out for a morning of fabulous trout fishing, and then we recorded a podcast in the clubhouse. The Franklin Club is a wicked, beautiful place to spend a sweet nature-forward day. The grounds are amazing, the water is splendid, and the fishing is next level. It's a fantastic place to learn still water fishing, and dial in different techniques.  Thanks for having us Franklin Club! Thanks Ian for taking us out.  Learn more about the Franklin Club here.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the Trump Administration have talked quite a bit about the fact that there is a 400% increase in autism rates in children up to 8 years old between 2000 and 2022. They claim that in America we've gone from 1 in 150 children having autism to 1 in 31 children having autism. This spike in autism rates has had its effect on millions of families across the country and has raised serious questions related to the food we eat, the vaccines we take, and the medicine we consume on a regular basis. And now RFK Jr. announced that Tylenol, when taken late in pregnancy, is connected to the rise in autism rates. This announcement brought about a frenzy of reaction from left wing and right wing media outlets and liberal lunatics on TikTok.Much of the liberal mainstream media claimed that RFK Jr. was a quack conspiracy theorist who has no business lecturing the American people on health and medicine. And the liberals on TikTok thought it best to stick it to the Trump administration by downing as much Tylenol as humanly possible while pregnant. But aside from what the liberal regime is saying, I wanted to know more about this new study that the White House released and its legitimacy. I want to know if Tylenol causes autism or is only associated with autism.So, I reached out to Dr. Peter McCullough. You may know him from the days of COVID in 2020. Dr. McCullough was one of a few doctors across America who challenged the mainstream narrative related to the COVID Vaccine's and treatments. His career and his reputation were publicly condemned and ridiculed for this. To this day Wikipedia says that “McCullough has promoted misinformation and conspiracy theories about COVID-19, its treatments, and mRNA vaccines.” Now THAT statement is an objective lie.Dr. McCullough was willing to put his life's work on the line during COVID and challenge the mainstream narrative, and he was right about everything he said. I thought it would be interesting to hear from Dr. McCullough about the new White House initiatives related to autism and their approach to learning about the autism epidemic. Are RFK Jr and his team actually just liars and conspiracy theorists? Or is the America Medical Industry stuck in a downward spiral of political ideological capture and a denial of facts and truth? Here's my interview with Dr. Peter McCullough. I hope you enjoy.

In this episode I talked with a Free Press reporter, Josh Code. He recently wrote an article on the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. In this article he interviewed a Christian man in Nigeria who was taken captive by Muslims and beaten for his participation in helping two women escape from their hometown after converting from Islam to Christianity. We talked about the American Government's response to the Christian persecution in Nigeria and why this persecution is even happening in the first place. We finally discussed the problems with liberal Christianity and what the story of persecution in Nigeria can teach Christians in the West.

In this episode, I talked with Tanya Lukyanova from The Free Press. Tanya is a video journalist who grew up in Russia and is now living in the United States. She has reported on Russia's authoritarian decline from her home country and has reported on the war in Israel. Two weeks ago she released a video about a viral story that was dominating headlines related to the war in Israel — the story was about a young Gazan boy who was supposedly murdered in cold blood by the Israeli Defense Forces.This story, created by Anthony “Tony” Aguilar was given legitimacy by mainstream media like MSNBC, CNN, and even Tucker Carlson. The only problem was that Anthony Aguilar made the story up out of thin air. The supposed murdered child was found weeks later and confirmed alive. Tanya reported on this for The Free Press and revealed that the entire story was blown up out of proportion for propagandistic purposes.This conversation begins with Tanya discussing her reporting on Russia and her upbringing in Russia. She explains how the country has changed in her lifetime and how Putin is thinking through the war in Ukraine. We also talked about what the government needs to do, if anything, when media outlets are lying on purpose to conjure up paranoia and support for anti-American ideology and enemies. I hope you enjoy!

In this episode I talk about what you should do if your pastors fails to talk about Charlie Kirk. I discuss what is happening in the political realm and why the extremists on the political Right and Left are both pushing narratives about the assassination of Charlie Kirk that are beneficial to their liberal ideology. I also discuss what you should do if your pastor lectured you in 2020 about your inherent racism in light of the death of a fentanyl addict, George Floyd, but refuses to talk about the Evangelist, Charlie Kirk.

In this episode I talked with Larry Sanger. As you may know, Larry is the Co-Founder of Wikipedia and a recent convert to Christianity. Sanger has his PhD in Philosophy from Ohio State University and created Wikipedia's first introduction pages and home page when the company started in the early 2000s. In recent years, Sanger has been outspoken against Wikipedia and its politically liberal bias. In his announcement of his conversion, he made it clear that he had not chosen a denomination and was not actively a member of any particular church or denomination.In our conversation, Larry and I talked about his most recent announcement that he is joining the Anglican Church of North America (ACNA). We discussed how he came to the conclusion that the ACNA was the best Church for him to join, how he studied many different denominations on his journey to Anglicanism, and what criteria he used to guide his search for a church. This is an important conversation as Sanger gives a thorough breakdown of his logical and philosophical method of studying both the Bible and church history on his way to the Anglican Church.

In this episode, I begin a short series based on the book by Thomas Nettles, In the Midst of the Years: A History of Reformation and Revival in America. There is much confusion in the modern age related to what revival is and how we can discern when a movement is of God is truly of God. In this book, Nettles travels through the history of reformation and revival in America — he covers people like Jonathan Edwards, Charles Finney, Dwight Moody, and Billy Sunday. He also analyzes events like the First and Second Great Awakening, the Civil War Revivials, and the 1858 Prayer revival. In this short series, I will be discussing four of these people/events in American church history.Today, I will start in the 1700s with Jonathan Edwards. Edwards gives five criteria for analyzing and judging a revival. These criteria are still valid and extremely helpful for today. My hope is that through this series, you can more truthfully judge whether or not something is a movement of the Spirit of God or a movement of the whims of men. I hope you enjoy!

He has planted churches in California, England, and Pennsylvania and received his PhD from the University of Cambridge.In our conversation we discussed his new book, Turning the World Upside Down: Lessons for the Church from Acts 1-8. We talked about how Christ built His church in the book of Acts and what we, in the modern world, should learn from Jesus' disciples in the Apostolic Age. We also discussed the role the ethnic Jews play in the church and what our relationship to the Jews should be as Christians. Finally, we talked about the similarities between Judas, who sold Christ out for 30 pieces of silver, and you and I who often sell Him out for much less. I hope you enjoy!

We head NORTH, and fish an increeeeeeeeeedibly beautiful place in Ontario. Seriously, one for the books - it's one of our fav spots in the province. We had the pleasure of being guided by Brian Still of Stillwater Guiding for the second year in a row. In this episode we chat about throwing big flies on big rods chasing musky, pike, and bass. We have some pretty epic fishing stories in this one - don't miss it! Huge thanks to Barbara, Ryan, and the whole family up at the camp for having us - it was such a treat to be welcomed in and spend time together. We get into the full experience in this one - gear, tactics, the fish, and why Brian is such a great guide. If you're thinking about making your own trip up there, do it. Seriously.

In this episode, I talked with Lucy Biggers. Lucy is a Social Media Editor at The Free Press and has written several articles for The Free Press. She was formerly a “climate change” activist and avid supporter of progressive politicians and ideology.In our conversation we discussed her upbringing, how she came to be a progressive, and her conversion to a more Conservative worldview. We talked about how she helped get Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez get elected and how she pushed the “climate change” narrative in The United States and abroad — even going as far as to interview Greta Thunberg. We discussed how she began to notice the logical cracks in her Marxist worldview and why she has just now started speaking up against liberal policy and ideology.In June she wrote an article for The Free Press called ‘I Helped AOC Win. I Understand the Fantasy Zohran Is Selling.'We talked about this article and how to change the minds of the upcoming generations who seem to be stuck in a progressive black hole. I hope you enjoy!

In this episode I talked with WORLD News Reporter, Lauren Canterberry. We discussed her reporting related to the Mifepristone abortion tablets and her reporting on the SCOTUS ruling that Planned Parenthood cannot receive Medicaid funding in states like South Carolina that have outlawed federal money to be given to abortion clinics.This was a wide-ranging conversation and one that Christians should listen to. The abortion industry, as bad as it already is, is now targeting underage girls and mailing abortion pill across the country — even to people in states that have outlawed certain abortion pills and even the mailing of abortion pills. The issue of murdering babies is not a debatable issue or a grey issue for Christians, we must defend both the lives of unborn babies and the lives of mothers.

Chesterton: The Apostle of Common Sense.” He is known as the world leading expert on G.K. Chesterton and is the author of the commentary on Chesterton's book, The Everlasting Man.In our conversation we talked about how The Everlasting Man was the book that converted C.S. Lewis to Christianity, and why Lewis said that this book put forth the best explanation of Christianity that he had ever read. We discussed Chesterton's intellectual ability despite his dropping out of college and never pursuing a higher education.

He is also the author of a book called, The Ecology of Nations, and he is the recent recipient of the 2025 Grawemeyer Award for World Order. Back in August of 2024, I interviewed Dr. Owen to discuss his book, The Ecology of Nations, and his political philosophy on foreign affairs.In this discussion we talk about the complex relationship between domestic politics and geopolitics, the tendencies of authoritarian governments, the flirtatious relationship between some right wing Republicans and authoritarian regimes, and the Iran/Israel 12 day war.

In this episode I had the opportunity to sit down with Tammy Peterson. Tammy, as you may know, is the wife of Dr. Jordan Peterson and the host of The Tammy Peterson Podcast. Back in September of last year Tammy and I did a podcast in which we discussed the carnivore diet, Capitalism, and the differences between Protestantism and Catholicism. That conversation went so well that we thought we should have another — only this time we wanted to discuss beauty, art, authoritarianism, fairytales, and Jew persecution.

He is also the author of many books including Theological Method: An Introduction, He Who Gives Life, and Engaging with the Holy Spirit. Dr. Cole is also an ordained Anglican minister.We discussed his book, Against the Darkness: The Doctrine of Angels, Satan, and Demons. In this book Dr. Cole breaks down the theological depths of angelology. He explains how Christians should think about the spiritual realm, what angels, demons, and Satan are, and how we should interact with the Spiritual battle that is happening in our midst.
