How is that with all the laws, legislation, and awareness that we're still dealing with the torment of sexual exploitation with our sons and daughters?

Today, Nate and I talk about the driving factors behind child exploitation, why YOU should address the societal injustices you see in society today, the power of coachability and gritty-ness in your pursuit of your dreams, and why and how to protect yourself, society, and children from the nastiness and perversion of modern culture.

Warren: Operation Underground Railroad Rescue is moving its headquarters from Salt Lake City, Utah, to Minneapolis, Minnesota, according to reporting by Twin Cities Business. Tammy Lee, OUR Rescue CEO said about Minneapolis. “There is such a strong foundation here, in the legal community as well as the philanthropic community and the survivor support community,” The global headquarters' relocation is planned for January 2025. Lee also said the mission of the organization will adjust to focus more on domestic trafficking and rescues. Natasha: How do they plan to do that? Warren: Lee said, “In this coming year, we're going to be building out direct services for survivors of human trafficking and sexual exploitation,” “We're also looking at supporting key populations that are really underserved, looking at the indigenous populations and partnerships with other non-governmental organizations to do that work.” Lee joined OUR Rescue as CEO in February 2024 with the task of rebuilding and rebranding the organization. OUR Rescue was founded by former homeland security agent Tim Ballard in 2013 as Operation Underground Railroad. In April, Lee and the board renamed the group OUR Rescue.

00:00 Introductions 01:21 Zachary Radcliff 09:21 Tim Ballard 13:49 Mike Jeffries 20:22 Roadhouse 22:00 Grant Beth & Luke Polaske 24:42 Viewer Comments 26:42 Deadly Hammocks 34:25 Lily Allen —Zachary Radcliff is a proud, flag-waving MAGA white boy. He's also been arrested for being waaaaay too into kids. Like, Michael Jackson into kids. Funny, that. (Not funny that anyone is into kids, but the irony of a party that screams about gays/lgbtq/drag queens and the like always having members getting busted for really criminal things is hilarious.) Even better, he's a youth pastor, a graduate of Liberty University (the Jerry Falwell institution that substitutes reality and facts for Jesus), and performed at CPAC, the annual gathering of the worst people on the planet. Which means he fit right in. —Speaking of hypocrites… Tim Ballard, founder of Operation Underground Railroad and the lionized (fake) hero of the hit Jim Caviezel movie, “Sound of Freedom,” has six lawsuits against him for human trafficking. That's right, he wants to protect young girls, but once they hit eighteen, they're fair game for everything! (He's like the anti-Matt Gaetz that way; Matt is disinterested once they turn eighteen.) Again, it's (sad) funny how those that scream “VIRTUE!” are the least virtuous among us. —I don't think we set out to do an episode centered around awful humans, but that's how it turned out. Mike Jeffries is the former CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch, and he has been indicted on 16 federal counts of sex trafficking and international prostitution. But there's a twist! He was trafficking… men! Who saw that coming? Apparently not those men. —As an aside, we discuss Kelly Lynch, Bill Murray, and her steamy scene with Patrick Swayze in the classic film, Roadhouse. —Grant Beth and Luke Polaske have bad parents. How do I know this? Because they raised garbage kids who act the victim when they're in the wrong. Those two d-bags went to heckle at a Kamala Harris campaign, and are now crying their hurt feelings regarding being thrown out. Losers. —We take a moment to duck into the live chat and respond to a few folk. —Erin Field is a wonderful woman who suffered a tragic accident. We use it as a jumping off point to make fun of big chimney, an evil industry too often ignored. —British pop star Lily Allen is on Only Fans… But her material isn't erotic, or naughty. Well, I take that back. Erotic is in the eyes of the beholder, I suppose. Feet. Lily Allen takes pictures of her feet… and earns more doing that than she does as a—as stated a moment ago—British pop star. Because Spotify doesn't pay.

Natasha: But first, relatives and scholars of Dietrich Bonhoeffer have issued a warning to Eric Metaxas and others, accusing them of misusing his legacy for political reasons. Warren: In recent years, author and radio host Eric Metaxas and other conservative Christian supporters of Donald Trump have compared themselves to the famed German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer — who was put to death, in part, for participating in a plan to assassinate Adolph Hitler. In a recent interview on Flashpoint, a Christian television talk show on the Victory network, both Metaxas — author of a bestselling biography of Bonhoeffer — and the show's host called the current election a “Bonhoeffer moment” and urged Christians to rise up and oppose evil. His newest book, “Religionless Christianity” — a phrase used by Bonhoeffer — describes America's current politics as a spiritual war and sign of the end times. Natasha: A group of Bonhoeffer scholars — and the theologian's descendants — have had enough. Warren: In a statement issued Friday (Oct. 18) members of the International Bonhoeffer Society called on Metaxas and others to stop comparing the current election to the rise of the Nazis. The statement, in particular, called out Metaxas for social media posts featuring a gun and a Bible and his support of Jan. 6 rioters. “This portrayal glorifies violence and draws inappropriate analogies between our political system and that of Nazi Germany,” the scholars said in a statement, which has been signed by more than 800 Bonhoeffer scholars and other Christian leaders. Natasha: What prompted the statement? Warren: In part by the upcoming release of a new Bonhoeffer biopic, which will be out in theaters in late November. One of the posters for the film shows Bonhoeffer with a gun, and a trailer for the film shows his involvement in the plot to kill Hitler. Some of the early social media tweets about the film included messages about the “battle against tyranny” and a line from the trailer,

Maybe you've seen the movie, but are you aware of the controversy surrounding it? A Utah Mormon man named Tim Ballard has conned millions of dollars from good hearted people who want to help end child trafficking. The Mormon Church has formally denounced this man and there is very serious and real evidence that he has engaged in criminal activity including the sexual assault of women he worked with. This scandal is so big, it brought down the Utah State Attorney General, Sean Reyes. Operation Underground Railroad, the organization that Tim Ballard founded, has kicked him out entirely and is now working to distance itself from him altogether. Powerful Mormon leaders are scrambling to repair their public image after associating with Tim Ballard but most importantly, this entire situation has damaged the cause, the very real cause of breaking up child and sex trafficking rings. This will be a Part One as the story, and the litigation Tim Ballard is involved in is still ongoing.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dark-hearts-with-stacy-lee-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
