In this News Roundup, Jon Harris examines the Florida gubernatorial Republican primary and what the results reveal about the growing disconnect between online political influence and actual voters.The conversation then moves beyond Florida to the condition of the Bible Belt, the decline of Southern culture, the rise of socialism within the Democratic Party, and the question of whether the Christian influence of the South is really disappearing.Jon also discusses evangelical news, AI and Christian publishing, the dangers of lowering standards for political and religious leaders, and the growing problem of ecumenism on the Christian Right.Finally, Jon takes a close look at the “Christ Is King” conference and the decision to feature Alex Jones, examining Jones's statements about God, salvation, spirituality, and the nature of Christ. The question is not simply whether someone uses Christian language, but whether what they actually believe is consistent with Christianity.This episode is about politics, Christianity, institutional leadership, the Bible Belt, and the importance of looking beyond rhetoric to character, competence, theology, and reality.Jon's Music: jonharristunes.comTo Support the Podcast: https://www.jonharrismedia.com/support/Become a Patronhttps://www.patreon.com/jonharrispodcastSubstack: https://substack.com/@jonharris Follow Jon on Twitter: https://twitter.com/jonharris1989Follow Jon on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jonharris1989/00:00 — Florida's Republican Primary08:45 — The Numbers Do Not Match the Internet14:00 — When Spoilers Become a Political Strategy20:50 — Democrats, Socialism, and the New Coalition37:27 — Is the Bible Belt Gone?50:00 — Christianity, Politics, and AI1:04:56 — Is It Ever Too Late for Revival?1:05:04 — When “Christ Is King” Becomes a Problem1:17:00 — What Alex Jones Actually BelievesSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/conversations-that-matter8971/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Two Growls One Roar is back with a full Carolina Panthers news roundup as training camp rolls on! We're breaking down the biggest storylines swirling around the team right now — from a wild "what if" scenario involving a former Panthers quarterback, to roster moves both in and out of Charlotte.First up: Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox dropped a take that has Panthers fans buzzing — could Baker Mayfield actually make his way back to Carolina? Mayfield is in the final year of his deal in Tampa Bay and has reportedly been open about feeling disrespected after extension talks stalled out. Knox floats the idea that if Bryce Young regresses in 2026, the Panthers could revisit a reunion with Mayfield, especially given his prior relationship with head coach Dave Canales, who was Mayfield's offensive coordinator back in 2023. Of course, Mayfield's first stint in Carolina back in 2022 didn't exactly go according to plan — he started just six games and was released before the season ended. We break down whether this reunion actually makes sense or if it's just outside noise.Next, we cover Jadeveon Clowney's move back to Houston. The Rock Hill, South Carolina native and former No. 1 overall pick has agreed to terms with the Texans, the franchise that drafted him back in 2014. Clowney spent the 2024 season with the Panthers, tying for the team lead in sacks, before landing in Dallas last year. We look back at his time in Carolina and what this move means for his career.We also dig into a potential free agency fit that has Panthers fans excited — tight end Zach Ertz. NFL.com named Carolina as the top landing spot for the veteran pass catcher, and it's easy to see why. The Panthers haven't had a 50-catch tight end since Greg Olsen back in 2019, and Ertz posted exactly that many catches for Washington last season. Could he be the trusted veteran target Bryce Young needs heading into a pivotal year?On the roster front, we cover linebacker Jared Bartlett signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars just a week after being waived by Carolina. We go over his college career and what led to the move. And we close things out with a look at Xavier Legette's personal Sports Illustrated feature, where he returned to his hometown of Mullins, South Carolina, for a horseback and ATV ride with quarterback Bryce Young — opening up about losing his parents and his goal of remodeling his family's home.As always, we bring you Panthers news with real analysis and real perspective — no fluff, just growls. Make sure to like, comment, and subscribe so you don't miss an episode as training camp coverage continues.
