ESG investing promises to align your portfolio with your values. But an important question remains: Whose values are shaping the standards? Environmental, social, and governance ratings are often presented as measures of corporate responsibility. Yet the assumptions behind those ratings may not always align with biblical convictions. Nick Schmitz, Professor of Finance at The Catholic University of America and a Board Member of the Christian Investing Council (CIC), joined the show today to explain the differences between ESG and faith-based investing—and why Christians should pay attention not only to what they own, but also to how their shares are voted. ESG and Faith-Based Investing Start in Different Places ESG stands for environmental, social, and governance. ESG ratings attempt to evaluate companies based on their performance in each of those areas. But Schmitz points out that ESG standards are developed by secular ratings agencies and can shift with cultural and political trends. Faith-based investing starts somewhere different: with convictions rooted in biblical truth. That distinction matters because a company may receive strong ESG ratings while supporting practices that conflict with a Christian investor's beliefs about issues such as the sanctity of human life, religious liberty, family, or human dignity. There may certainly be areas of overlap. Christians care about justice, responsible stewardship, fair treatment of employees, and care for creation. But agreement on certain issues does not mean the underlying moral frameworks are the same. Faith-based investing asks a deeper question: Does the way this company operates—and the way my ownership stake is used—reflect the convictions I am seeking to live by? Your Shares Come With a Voice One area investors may overlook is proxy voting. Owning shares in a publicly traded company generally gives investors the opportunity to vote on certain corporate matters. But individual investors rarely cast those votes themselves. Instead, asset managers often rely on large proxy advisory firms to provide recommendations or process votes on their behalf. That means Christians may unknowingly own investments whose shares are being voted in ways that conflict with their beliefs. Schmitz offered an example involving shareholder proposals related to Google and crisis pregnancy centers. Some proposals sought changes in how those organizations appeared in search results and were characterized positively within ESG-oriented frameworks. Faith-based investors, however, could reach a very different conclusion because of their convictions regarding the unborn and the work of pro-life ministries. For Christian investors, then, screening a portfolio may be only part of the stewardship equation. How shares are voted can matter too. Moving Beyond Passive Ownership Schmitz has been involved in developing proxy-voting policies designed to better reflect Catholic investment principles. The effort grew from concern that existing guidelines did not always reflect the convictions they claimed to represent. The broader lesson applies to Christian investors of many traditions: we do not necessarily have to outsource our influence without asking questions. Faith-based investing can involve both screening and engagement. Screening considers whether a company's products, services, or practices conflict with an investor's convictions. Engagement asks whether shareholders can encourage companies toward practices that better promote human flourishing. That makes faith-based investing more than a list of companies or industries to avoid. Shareholders can also use their ownership to advocate for positive change. Christians Can Care About Creation Without Agreeing on Every Policy The “E” in ESG stands for environmental, which sometimes creates the impression that faith-based investors give little attention to environmental stewardship. Schmitz argues that this does not have to be the case. Christians may disagree about exactly how environmental concerns should be addressed, but waste, pollution, and responsible care for creation are legitimate stewardship concerns. Investors can support companies working to reduce genuine environmental harm while also considering the economic consequences of particular policies, especially for workers and lower-income communities. The difference is that Christians can recognize room for prudential disagreement. Biblical stewardship gives us principles to guide our thinking, but believers may reach different conclusions about the best policies or business practices to address a particular environmental concern. That calls for humility, wisdom, and careful discernment rather than assuming every issue has a one-size-fits-all solution. Look for Managers With “Skin in the Game” Schmitz also encouraged investors to consider whether the people managing their money have what author Nassim Nicholas Taleb famously called “skin in the game.” When Schmitz worked as a fund manager, for example, he invested his own capital alongside the investors whose money he managed. That kind of alignment can matter. A manager who shares both the potential rewards and the downside risk has an added incentive to exercise discipline and think long-term. For Christian investors, alignment can go even deeper. Do the people managing your investments understand your convictions? Do their investment policies reflect them? Are they transparent about how companies are screened, how proxies are voted, and how shareholder engagement is conducted? Christian investors should not assume that an investment is biblically aligned simply because it carries a faith-related label. Transparency matters. Common Misconceptions About Faith-Based Investing Schmitz highlighted several misconceptions investors should reconsider. First, ESG is not morally neutral. Like every investment framework, it rests on assumptions about what is good, responsible, and worth promoting. Second, faith-based investing is not merely negative screening. Christian investors can encourage good corporate behavior through shareholder engagement, proxy voting, and collaboration with other investors. Third, bringing Christian convictions into investing is not an inappropriate intrusion of faith into an otherwise neutral marketplace. Every investor brings values into financial decisions in some form. Christians should not feel compelled to leave deeply held beliefs outside the investment process. Finally, individual investors are not necessarily powerless. Shareholders can work together, support resolutions, engage company leadership, and influence how large asset managers vote. The question is whether Christians will use that influence intentionally. Questions to Ask About Your Investments If you want to know whether your investments reflect your convictions, start by asking questions. If you work with a financial advisor or investment manager, ask how your investments are screened and how proxy votes are handled. If most of your retirement savings are held through an employer-sponsored plan, ask your plan provider what proxy-voting policies apply to the funds you own. You can also examine Christian mutual funds and exchange-traded funds that publicly disclose their screening standards, voting policies, and shareholder-engagement practices. The goal is not perfection. Investing in a complex economy will always require wisdom and discernment. But greater transparency can help investors make more informed stewardship decisions. Keep Your Investment Horizon Eternal Schmitz closed with advice he regularly shares with young people entering finance: Character matters more than credentials. Work ethic, courage, and integrity can open doors over the course of a career, but ambition must remain submitted to something greater than personal achievement. For the Christian, that means keeping Christ at the center. Financial markets reward investors who are willing to think beyond the next quarter or the next headline. Christians have an even longer horizon. We make financial decisions knowing that earthly returns are temporary and faithfulness to Christ has eternal significance. That perspective changes the way we think about investing. We are not merely asking, “What return can this investment produce?” We are also asking, “What am I supporting with the resources God has entrusted to me?” Faith-based investing is ultimately another opportunity to practice faithful stewardship—seeking to align our financial decisions with our convictions while remembering that our ultimate treasure is not found in any portfolio, but in Christ. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: I'm an elementary teacher looking to supplement my income, and I recently earned my life and health insurance license. A friend invited me to join WFG. Is that a good option for part-time work, or are there better ways to use the license? I opened a savings account after receiving a promotion offering a cash bonus if I deposited funds and left them there for 90 days. I met those requirements, but now the bank says I failed to enroll in the promotion, even though the invitation didn't mention that step. What should I do to dispute this?

Later this year, Americans will recognize September 11, 2026 as the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center back in 2001.The attack was enacted by Al-Qaeda, a radical Islamic organization. And while countless Muslims decried the violence as both a tragedy and as an anti-Islamic act, the following years saw many Muslims (and people suspected to be Muslims) severely mistreated.Right after 9/11, there were nearly 20 times the amount of assaults on muslims every year as there had been in the 90's. And, while that figure has risen and fallen in the decades since, in certain circles, a suspicion of Muslims in the U.S. and even an all out hatred of the Islamic faith has lingered.One of the circles in which Islam has often been called into question has been the far right. Speaking of Muslims back in 2015, Trump said “Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension.” He said this in connection with his plans to prevent Muslim Immigration into the United States. A plan which, when elected, he partially saw through, by banning refugees from seven predominantly Muslim nations from entering the country.And it wasn't just Trump calling out Islam. In 2019, Muslim Advocates called on FOX News to fire Tucker Carlson for what he said about Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar and her Muslim faith. In a much more grave instance, also in 2019, a man killed nearly 50 people in a Christchurch, New Zealand Mosque. In his manifesto, he named conservative commentator Candace Owens as the person who had most radicalized him. Candace, of course, did not endorse these killings. But her stance on Islam at the time was certainly more negative.
But in 2026, a quick look through the talk shows and podcasts of Carlson, Owens and other right-wing commentators, will paint a very different picture of how these groups feel about Muslims. The same pundits who once criticized Islam, are now defending it.To better understand the right's evolving relationship with Islam, I spoke with Matthew Schmitz. Schmitz is the editor of Compact Magazine and the Religion Editor for the Washington Post Opinion Section. He is also Cohost of the Against The Grain podcast. Schmitz wrote an article back in May about the phenomenon of conservative influencers who have radically changed the way they talk about Islam online. We talked about this trend, how Trump measures up and what it might mean for the future of the Republican Party.

Podcast 332 - A New Season, a New Stadium, and Players Who Make Dunwoody Proud - Coach Matt Schmitz Coach Schmitz is back on the podcast, and Dunwoody football is in an exciting spot. It had been almost a year since our last conversation, and the program is heading into year two with real momentum, a returning coaching staff, and nearly a hundred kids on the roster. We covered a lot. Coach talked about why keeping Dunwoody kids home matters more to him than recruiting new ones, and how the Junior Wildcats feed right into the high school program under the same booster club. We got into the Chamblee rivalry and the Golden Spike, the football team carrying that giant American flag in the July 4th parade, and why so many families are choosing Dunwoody these days. We also dug into the new home field. Seacrest Stadium will finally give the Wildcats their own place to play on campus, instead of sharing a field with Chamblee. It is made possible by a major gift from Dunwoody alum Ryan Seacrest, matched by the community through the Bring It Home campaign, and it brings Coach Mike Nash's old dream of Dunwoody kids walking to their own game within reach. Between a returning staff, a deep roster, and a new home field on the way, there is a lot to look forward to this fall. Give it a listen and get ready for some Wildcat football.

Alright, if you want a raw, unfiltered elk hunting conversation from a guy who is absolutely obsessed with the game — this is your episode. Brandon Schmitz out of North Idaho joins the show for his very first podcast appearance, and let me tell you, this dude brings it. No fluff, no highlight reel — just honest elk hunting from a guy who has spent the last six years grinding through some of the most demanding country in the West. Brandon didn't grow up with a silver spoon handed to him in the elk woods. His dad lost the fire for hunting after wolves moved into North Idaho and wrecked what used to be some of the best big game hunting in the country. So Brandon had to figure it out himself, and that journey is exactly what makes this conversation so good. From his very first elk hunt — where his cousin smoked a bull that basically walked up to a truck parked in the middle of the road — to going toe-to-toe with grizzly bears, packs of wolves, and rutting bull moose in the same drainage, this guy has seen it all. Six-plus years in, Brandon still hasn't notched his tag, but don't let that fool you. This dude is FINDING elk — like, legitimately locating 20-plus bulls in a single season. The problem he keeps running into is the same one that trips up a ton of DIY hunters: closing the deal. We dig deep into that in this episode, and I think a lot of you guys are going to hear yourselves in Brandon's story. We talk about the mental side of solo hunting, what it really means to "be in striking distance," how to work a bull when your setup goes sideways, the art of building a bull's ego so he's absolutely fired up the next morning, and why sometimes the laziest move IS the right move. We also get into the very real challenges of elk hunting in grizzly and wolf country, the predator management problem that nobody in power wants to touch, and what it's like to be solo in the woods surrounded by apex predators that don't have a healthy fear of humans anymore. This is one of those conversations that reminds you why we love this thing so damn much — even when it's hard. Maybe especially when it's hard.This Episode's Sponsors TricerIf you're not running Tricer gear in the field, you're leaving performance on the table.

Stop Trying to Kill the Elk — Start Trying to Stay Close to ItOne of the most useful mindset shifts in this episode: instead of putting the pressure of "I need to kill this elk tonight" on every single move, just focus on getting into striking distance and staying there. Elk hunting rarely goes according to the exact plan, but things tend to happen when you're consistently close. Measure your days by time spent within range of elk, not by whether a shot materialized. This single reframe takes the anxiety out of solo hunting and keeps you in the game longer.2. Let Curiosity Kill the Cat — Silence Is a WeaponWhen a bull hangs up and won't commit, most hunters feel compelled to keep calling. Big mistake. A quiet elk is a suspicious elk — a quiet *location* is a curious elk. When you go dark after a bull responds, you're not losing the conversation, you're winning it. He'll start wondering where you went, and that curiosity will often pull him toward you. Learn to sit on your hands, let the shot clock run a little, and only break the silence if you truly feel him losing interest. When you do break it, try raking over calling — it's less demanding and gives you the chance to move.3. The Decision Fatigue Problem Is Real — Have a Plan and Commit to ItBeing physically tough enough to elk hunt is table stakes. The thing that actually determines success — especially for solo hunters — is the mental discipline to stick to a plan when everything is going sideways. It's easy to leave a drainage after a tough morning and convince yourself the elk blew out. It's harder to say "I committed to this spot for two days and I'm seeing it through." The hunters who string together good at-bats aren't necessarily the ones who work the hardest — they're the ones who make fewer panic decisions and have the confidence (sometimes fake confidence) to stay the course when doubt creeps in.

Joe Schmitz Jr. and Jeremy Keil explore the 2% Club of retirees and the unique challenges that come with significant retirement savings and a pension. https://youtu.be/G04JKpKyLJ0 Most retirement conversations focus on one question: Will I have enough? But there's another retirement challenge that doesn't get talked about nearly enough: What happens when you've done everything right? Joe Schmitz Jr. has been working with a very specific group of retirees he calls the 2% Club. His definition: People who have both: A pension And $1 million or more saved for retirement That combination creates opportunities. But it also creates a different set of retirement decisions. Success Creates Different Problems For decades, these retirees did what they were told: Saved consistently Avoided lifestyle inflation Built meaningful retirement assets Earned pensions Stayed disciplined Now retirement arrives… …and suddenly the challenge isn't accumulating wealth. It's using it wisely. Joe shared one statistic that stood out: “80% of people out there will pay no federal income taxes in retirement… while this 2% club is part of that 20% that will have to pay taxes and typically much more.” That means retirement planning shifts. Less focus on accumulation. More focus on: Taxes Spending Distribution strategy Legacy Purpose Why High-Income Retirees Can Accidentally Become Under-Spenders One of the most interesting parts of this conversation was Joe's concept of the Midwestern Millionaire. His description: Hard-working.Frugal.Disciplined. Excellent savers. Often reluctant spenders. And that creates an unexpected retirement problem. People who spent 40 years training themselves to save don't automatically become comfortable spending. Even when they can afford it. Joe described clients who had millions saved but still struggled emotionally to use their money because restraint had become part of their identity. That's where retirement planning becomes less about spreadsheets and more about permission. The Four Places Your Money Can Go Joe offered a simple framework. Your money ultimately goes somewhere. You can: Spend it Gift it Give it Pay taxes on it That framework creates an important question: If you're not spending your money intentionally… where is it going? That doesn't mean everyone should spend aggressively. But it does mean retirees should think intentionally about: Lifestyle Family impact Charitable goals Taxes Because choosing not to decide is still a decision. Pension Decisions Deserve More Attention Than Most People Give Them Joe also emphasized something I see frequently: People often make pension elections based on coworkers. Someone retires.Takes a lump sum.Everyone follows. But pension elections are often irreversible. Joe's advice was simple: Run the numbers. Questions like these matter: Lump sum or monthly pension? Survivor benefits? Age differences between spouses? Existing assets? Insurance needs? The right answer isn't universal. It's personal. Don't Let Tax Fear Control Retirement For some retirees, fear of crossing an income threshold and triggering Medicare IRMAA surcharges becomes bigger than the actual cost itself. Joe's point wasn't to ignore taxes. It was to understand them. Tax planning matters. But taxes shouldn't become the only goal. Because avoiding taxes at all costs can sometimes prevent people from living the retirement they actually built. The Real Goal One story Joe shared captured this perfectly. A retired couple promised each other they'd spend intentionally during their early retirement years. Two years later… They had spent nothing. Not because they couldn't. Because they hadn't learned how. Eventually they created a spending plan and began enjoying experiences they had delayed for decades. That's the shift retirement requires. You don't stop being disciplined. You simply redirect that discipline. The Bottom Line Retirement success isn't measured by how much money you leave untouched. It's measured by whether your money helps support the life you actually wanted. Because after decades of saving… Retirement planning becomes deciding what your wealth is for.

Nous sommes le jeudi 30 septembre 1915 . Le chanoine Jean Schmitz écrit : « Depuis environ huit jours, on entend de nouveau et, régulièrement, le canon. Effet, sans doute, de la chute des feuilles. La garde Louis, de la citadelle, avait surpris un vieil officier avec une donzelle (…) Il l'a traduit pour affaire de mœurs . Le garde a été condamné, pour injure à un officier, à quatre mois de prison. La dame s'appelait, paraît-il, Massart. On signale de partout une grande sévérité. On exige fréquemment les cartes d'identité. Dans certaines régions les sonneries de cloches sont ou supprimées ou réglementées. Les postes de surveillance des ponts sont renforcés. On a signalé des essais d'attentat. » Tout au long de la Grande Guerre, le chanoine Schmitz a rendu compte de la vie quotidienne dans les provinces de Namur et de Luxembourg. Le rationnement, la misère, les arrestations, les déportations, la peur, les réquisitions, l'évolution des mœurs, l'espoir, parfois. Le tout sans jamais se départir de ses convictions religieuses. Plongeons dans ses carnets de mémoire… Avec Jean-François Pacco, journaliste. Coauteur de « Les carnets du chanoine Schmitz – La Grande Guerre au jour le jour en provinces de Namur et de Luxembourg. » paru aux éditions namuroises.

Today Razib talks to Matthew Schmitz, a journalist who previously served as an editor at the religious journal First Things. He is the cofounder of the online magazine Compact, alongside Edwin Aponte and Sohrab Ahmari. He currently serves as editor of Compact, religion editor of Washington Post Opinions, and co-host of the podcast Against the Grain. Compact His essays on politics and culture have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Claremont Review of Books. A native of O'Neill, Nebraska, Schmitz is a graduate of Princeton University. First, they discuss Schmitz's piece in the Washington Post, The unreligious religiosity of Christian identity politics. Here Schmitz articulates the view that the nationalist-inflected Christianity exemplified by many MAGA and MAGA-adjacent figures is quite different from the sincere but earnest evangelicalism of the older religious right. Rather, it is more performative, more civilizational, and tied into white identity politics. Additionally, it turns away from the philo-Semitism that has been typical of the American religious landscape. Schmitz and Razib also address the rise and fall of the New Atheism over the last 20 years, from the decline of public Christian faith as the center of the body politic, the rationalist critique and the marginalization of both by woke social-justice political theology. They also discuss the difficulties and travails of religious pluralism in the US today, including the tensions caused by the arrival of large numbers of Hindus in places like Texas, where they erect statues to their gods, including the semi-monkey divinity Hanuman.  

Mark Schmitz, father of Lance Corporal Jared Schmitz, joins the show to discuss the Pentagon's decision to upgrade valor awards for Marines involved in the Abbey Gate bombing during the Afghanistan withdrawal. He shares concerns about government accountability, new details surrounding gunfire at the scene, and the ongoing trial of the ISIS-K terrorist linked to the attack. Schmitz also talks about his organization, The Freedom 13, including major fundraising success, building retreat homes for veterans, and upcoming events like the Freedom Backyard Ultra Marathon and Memorial Ride, all aimed at supporting those who served.

Three days after the taping of The Jenny Jones Show, the tension that had lingered off camera turned deadly. What began as a daytime television surprise became a national tragedy, thrusting Scott Amedure and Jonathan Schmitz back into headlines under far darker circumstances. In Part 2, Murder: True Crime Stories examines the murder of Scott Amedure, the urgent investigation that followed, and the courtroom battle that put Schmitz on trial. Carter Roy breaks down the prosecution's case, the defense's argument that the televised reveal triggered overwhelming emotional distress, and the broader cultural attitudes toward sexuality that shaped public reaction. As the verdict was delivered, the case raised unsettling questions about media ethics, personal responsibility, and the limits of entertainment built on public confession. The fallout extended beyond the criminal trial, leading to a landmark civil lawsuit against The Jenny Jones Show and forcing a national reckoning over how far television should go in the pursuit of ratings.

Scott Amedure was 32 years old when he stepped onto the stage of The Jenny Jones Show, prepared to share a deeply personal confession. In 1995, he revealed on national television that he had a crush on Jonathan Schmitz, a moment designed for daytime drama that would soon take on far more serious consequences. In Part 1, Murder: True Crime Stories examines Scott's life leading up to the taping and the cultural climate surrounding daytime talk shows in the 1990s, where sensational reveals and emotional confrontations drove ratings. Carter Roy traces how producers recruited guests, what participants were told in advance, and how the episode was framed behind the scenes. As the cameras rolled and the surprise was revealed on stage, laughter, shock, and visible discomfort filled the studio. Schmitz's stunned reaction became part of the spectacle, but when the taping ended, the tension lingered. Within days, the fallout from that televised moment would escalate into one of the most controversial crimes of the decade.
