In a culture that demanded compromise, Daniel and his friends chose conviction.They refused to bow, refused to stay silent, and refused to let pressure change their faith. Through fire, lions, and opposition, God proved Himself faithful.Faith isn't just about what we believe when it's easy—it's about standing firm when our convictions are tested. Trust God, remain faithful, and refuse to bow to the pressures around you!

Spouting Off with Karen Kataline Immigration, Western Civilization, Psychiatric Drugs, and Green Energy Karen Kataline Continues the Alan Nathan Show in Alan's Memory In this episode of The Alan Nathan Show / Alan Nathan All-Stars, host Karen Kataline opens by acknowledging the untimely passing of Alan Nathan and explaining that the show continues in his memory and honor. She notes that she and Alan had often done Mondays together and says it is an honor to help continue the program during this transitional period for the Main Street Radio Network. Throughout the episode, Karen frames the broadcast as part of a new chapter while preserving the spirit, name, and tradition of the Alan Nathan All-Stars. Immigration, Libertarianism, and Sanctuary Policies Karen's first guest is the executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, identified in the transcript as Mark Krikorian or a similar spelling. They discuss immigration enforcement, libertarian arguments for open immigration, and the tension between open borders and a welfare state. Mark argues that libertarians once aligned more closely with conservatives on taxes, regulation, and the size of government, but now often align with the left on questions of sovereignty, borders, and immigration. He cites Milton Friedman's argument that open immigration and a welfare state cannot coexist and says that while social programs can be tightened, the welfare state is not simply going away. Chicago, ICE, and Local Non-Cooperation The discussion then turns to Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois, which Mark describes as sanctuary jurisdictions. He explains that ICE is not asking local police to conduct immigration checks in the street, but to hold criminal suspects who are already arrested and fingerprinted if they are deportable, so ICE can take custody. He argues that sanctuary policies release deportable offenders back into communities and says this especially harms immigrant neighborhoods. Karen and Mark also criticize Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, accusing them of interfering with immigration enforcement and downplaying violence in Chicago. Karen Reflects on Alan Nathan and the Show's Transition After the first interview and intervening ad segments, Karen returns to discuss the show's transition after Alan Nathan's death. She encourages listeners to hear the tribute program that aired over the weekend and recalls clips of Alan and his wife Jane from years earlier, describing their on-air chemistry as entertaining, lively, argumentative, and classic talk radio. Karen says it is a sad time for everyone at Main Street Radio Network, but emphasizes that the Alan Nathan Show and Alan Nathan All-Stars tradition will continue. James Hankins on The Golden Thread and Western Civilization Karen then welcomes James Hankins, described as a Harvard University historian and co-author of The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition. Hankins explains that the “golden thread” is a metaphor for the Western tradition, and that the book aims to recover the history of Western civilization from the ancient Greeks and Romans through the Middle Ages and into the modern world. He argues that this history has not been properly taught in schools or universities for decades, leaving people without a shared understanding of democracy, republics, communism, socialism, and the meaning of Western civic life. Communism, Democratic Socialism, and Historical Amnesia Karen connects the discussion to contemporary politics, warning against Marxism, communism, and democratic socialism. Hankins says many people who call themselves democratic socialists do not understand what the term means or how socialism has operated historically. He argues that adding the word “democratic” does not solve the deeper problem, because socialism has not historically favored democracy. Karen and Hankins agree that many public arguments suffer because people no longer share basic definitions or historical knowledge, especially about the distinction between a republic and a democracy. Dr. Toby Watson on Psychiatric Drugs and Violence Later, Karen interviews clinical psychologist Dr. Toby Watson, who says he has worked on research and testimony related to psychiatric medications, including SSRI antidepressants and black-box warning labels. Watson says his work involves outcome research on psychotropic medications and forensic cases where people with no history of violence commit violent or self-destructive acts after taking medication. Karen asks whether antidepressants and psychiatric medications may be contributing to violence, especially in the wake of Columbine-era discussions. Watson answers strongly that SSRIs can increase suicidal thoughts and behavior and says this is acknowledged in FDA black-box warnings. Akathisia, Political Motives, and Youth Medication Dr. Watson discusses akathisia, describing it as an inner agitation or restlessness that can make people feel as though they want to crawl out of their skin. He says it can occur with SSRIs and is even more common with antipsychotics. Karen asks whether suppression of this information may be about more than money, suggesting possible political motives. Watson agrees that politics can be involved and argues that children in poverty, especially those connected to Medicaid or Medicare systems, are disproportionately medicated at higher doses even when diagnosis and symptom severity are considered. He also references Anatomy of an Epidemic and argues that long-term psychiatric drug use can contribute to disability and general decline. Gender Ideology, Violence Profiles, and Dr. Watson's Cautions Karen and Watson also discuss social contagion, gender ideology, and political violence. Karen asks about the murder of Charlie Kirk and whether the alleged killer was on psychiatric medication. Watson says he has no direct knowledge and is not involved in that investigation, cautioning that too much misinformation is circulating to make a firm claim. However, he says the suspect fits a known profile for certain kinds of shooters and that, statistically, it would not surprise him if psychiatric medication were involved. Karen closes the short segment by inviting Watson back and directing listeners to his work online. Steve Goreham / Gorham on Green Energy and Rising Electricity Prices Karen closes the show with Steve Goreham or Steve Gorham, described as executive director of the Climate Science Coalition of America and author of Green Breakdown: The Coming Renewable Energy Failure. The conversation focuses on rising electricity prices, renewable energy policies, and what Karen calls the “green new scam.” Steve argues that expensive electricity increases are concentrated in blue states that have pursued aggressive green policies, naming California, Maine, New York, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. He contrasts those with states such as Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Missouri, which he says rely more on natural gas or coal and have seen smaller increases. AI, Data Centers, Pipelines, and Energy Reality Steve argues that green-energy policies are running into the reality of rising electricity demand, especially from artificial intelligence and data centers built by companies such as Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon. He says AI-related electricity demand requires constant 24-hour power and cannot be reliably supported by wind and solar alone. Karen and Steve also discuss the Keystone pipeline, New York pipeline politics, natural gas constraints in New England, offshore wind leverage, and the role of Trump administration energy policy. Steve closes by directing listeners to his book Green Breakdown and website. Closing the New Chapter of the Alan Nathan All-Stars Karen ends the show by saying the Alan Nathan All-Stars are heading into a new chapter, but with Alan Nathan still serving as the program's guiding star. The episode as a whole blends remembrance of Alan with Karen's political and cultural commentary, moving through immigration enforcement, Western civilization, psychiatric drugs, gender ideology, energy policy, and the future of American public debate.

HE IS RISEN!

It's one of the oldest debates in political philosophy: Do good laws make good men, or do good men make good laws? Minds have been wrestling with this question since the days of Petrarch and Machiavelli, but both sides may have insights that can inform modern political philosophy. James Hankins is a professor of history at Harvard University, a visiting professor of humanities at the University of Florida's Hamilton School, and author of numerous books including Virtue Politics: Soulcraft and Statecraft in Renaissance Italy and Political Meritocracy in Renaissance Italy: The Virtuous Republic of Francesco Patrizi of Siena. He's also the co-author of the textbook, The Golden Thread, which focuses on the history of Western civilization.  Greg and James discuss Renaissance humanism, sparked by Petrarch's response to 14th‑century crises, and explore the humanist education focused on virtue, rhetoric, and moral philosophy. They also delve into Machiavelli's critiques and pushback against humanism, how Chinese Confucianism compares with the West's legal system, and why James believes virtue should be brought back into modern education. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: Why we need both systems and good character 11:47: I think I agree with the people who think there should be a balance between good character and the formation of good character and expertise and wisdom and competence and the people who say that systems can solve all your problems and you just get the right systems and thinkful function. I think that is a very, kind of left, left hemispheric way of understanding human nature. Good law is nothing without good people 07:59: If you have great laws, but corrupt judges, you are going to have bad laws. If you have laws being written by corrupt people, that is even worse. So the humanist is saying the whole problem is, the human heart, right? This is where the problem is. And what we have to do is to bring back antiquity. Is democracy only the legitimate form of government? 47:14: Today, we might say that a democracy is the only legitimate form of government where a republic reflects the will of the people. But they would not say that in the Renaissance. They talk about better and worse, that monarchs are better when you have got a good monarch. But when you have a bad monarch, the monarch of the republic is better. It is that kind of calculation. It is not the way we think about political regimes today as being, legitimate or illegitimate.

The hour starts with a bunch of funny listener voicemails for Here's The Thing.  Later, former Seahawks defensive lineman Jonathan Hankins joins the show about what he's up to, his interest in media, what made the 2025 Seahawks great, Demarcus Lawrence and plenty more.

James Hankins is a Renaissance historian, longtime Harvard professor, and co-author of The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition. In this conversation with Coleman Hughes, he explains why he recently left Harvard, after nearly four decades, and why he believes the study of Western civilization has quietly disappeared from American education. Hankins argues that if students want to understand ideas like free speech, equality, and the rule of law, they need to know the long history story behind them—from ancient Greece and Rome through Christianity and the Enlightenment to the modern world. Along the way, he reflects on the controversy surrounding the Western canon, the debate over “dead white men,” and the question of whether a shared civilizational story is still possible in a pluralistic society.
