Following a terrorist attack at Bondi Beach, the Prime Minister has proposed immediate gun law reforms. Jason Matthews criticises the move as a political distraction that punishes lawful owners rather than addressing violent extremism, and argues that the government should instead focus on deporting those with anti-Australian ideologies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Journalist and author William J. Kole joins me to unpack the deep and often hidden ties between white evangelicalism, politics, fear, and America's gun culture. Drawing from his new book In Guns We Trust, Bill shares how his own ministry collided with concealed weapons, why fear has shaped so much of the church's response to gun violence, and how Christian nationalism and the idolizing of the Second Amendment have influenced our national crisis. We talk about the shift from historic Christian nonviolence to the embrace of firearms, the political power that keeps common-sense reforms stalled, and what other countries have done to reduce mass shootings. We also explore why “thoughts and prayers” aren't enough and what a truly pro-life ethic demands of us today. If you long to break cycles of violence and return to the nonviolent way of Jesus, this is an essential and challenging conversation.William J. Kole is a veteran journalist and a former foreign correspondent who has reported from North America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. As Vienna bureau chief for The Associated Press, he wrote extensively on the nexus of crime, the weapons trade, arms trafficking and terrorism across Eastern Europe.His evangelical credentials are as extensive as his journalistic ones: He's a former lay missionary for the Assemblies of God, a worship leader at evangelical churches in Europe and around his native New England, and served as board president of Dorcas USA, an international Christian relief and development agency.Kole was AP's New England bureau chief when a gunman armed with a military-style assault rifle massacred 20 first-graders and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. Earlier in his career, he was a lead writer on the car crash that killed Britain's Princess Diana, and he also covered the arrest of former Yugoslav strongman Slobodan Milosevic, the death of Pope John Paul II, and Kosovo's independence. His many awards include one from the Society of American Business Editors & Writers for an investigation into the exploitation of undocumented immigrants by the Walmart retail chain.Kole, who speaks French, Dutch and German, studied journalism at Boston University and was a journalism fellow at Columbia University in New York and the National Press Foundation in Washington, D.C. Now an editor for Axios, he lives in Providence, R.I., and Paris.Bill's Book:In Guns We TrustBill's Recommendation:Jesus and John WayneConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

House Democrats are renewing their efforts to reform gun ownership laws in Pennsylvania amid several recent high-profile gun deaths — including conservative activist Charlie Kirk and three Northern York County Regional police officers killed by a gunman. Last Friday, as the Trump administration demanded Pennsylvania share personal data about food-stamp recipients, a federal court ruled other states don’t have to do so. The 2026 governor’s race is heating up, as Republicans look to deny incumbent Josh Shapiro another term as Pennsylvania’s chief executive. State Treasurer Stacy Garrity now has the formal backing of the state Republican Party as expected. State Police are investigating the discovery of white supremacist pamphlets distributed in parts of Franklin County. The funeral service for three York County detectives killed in the line of duty last week will be held Thursday. President Trump says he's using his so-called "golden share" power to intervene and reverse a decision at U.S. Steel.

Since the tragic school shooting in Minnesota, the nation is once again left grappling with the same painful questions: how do we prevent tragedies like this from happening again? In the aftermath, both media outlets and political leaders have reignited the debate over possible solutions. As has been the case after nearly every mass shooting, the issue of gun control has quickly taken center stage. Some argue for stricter background checks, limitations on assault-style weapons, and tighter restrictions on gun purchases, while others maintain that the focus should be on mental health resources, school security, and community intervention programs. The discussion reflects a deeply divided nation—one that is searching for answers but often struggles to agree on what those answers should look like. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderRed, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.

Some topics are so heavy they are difficult to discuss, but gun violence has become such a problem in America that it is vitally important for us to talk about it in order to bring change. In this special episode of Talk About It, Greg is joined in studio by some great new friends -- Mark Barden, founder of Sandy Hook Promise and co-founder of Artist for Action, and Matthew Reich and Neal Saini, co-founders of Artist for Action. Mark Barden experienced the unimaginable when his 7-year-old son Daniel was killed in the Sandy Hook massacre of 2012, an event that sent shockwaves throughout the country. Mark and his family continue to go through periodic episodes of depression, anger, hopelessness, and warding off bad actors who spread conspiracies. However, he has harnessed those emotions to start Sandy Hook Promise (SandyHookPromise.org) that works to educate communities and school districts about gun violence and notify law enforcement through a tip line when a student or school is in danger. The work he is doing is literally saving lives. Mark also co-founded Arist for Action with Matthew and Neil, an organization that platforms causes for artists to easily promote to fans. Together, they put on major events to promote gun reform and are producing a documentary feature with major musical stars attached. This episode is heavy, but this is a conversation that needs to be had.  The Talk About It podcast is sponsored by Seizures Are Signs — dedicated to educating families on the importance of early and specific diagnosis by providing an assessment to help get the conversation started, educational information, stories from families who have found a diagnosis, links to advocacy groups, and more.
