Francis Scott Key penned the greatest anthem in world history. But what did he do with the rest of his history?
"I take photographs in my neighborhood. I think that mysterious things happen in familiar places. We don't always need to run to the other end of the world." -- Saul Leiter "There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment." -- Robert Frank In this midsummer episode, Antonio talks about returning to Seward, Nebraska, for the Fourth of July and giving himself one simple assignment: photograph people wearing the stars and stripes. By narrowing his attention, he actually becomes more present and comes home with a stronger, more connected group of pictures—a good reminder that creative limits can open things up instead of closing them down. As he prepares to teach his first six-week photography class, he also wrestles with how to give beginners enough technical knowledge without losing the bigger picture. Ward has just finished nine evenings at the Calgary Stampede, an event he has attended for more than forty years and photographed seriously for the last decade. This time, he finds himself looking beyond the strong, formal compositions he knows how to make and toward quieter pictures that say something about who people are. That shift brings more color, more interaction, and a little more humanity into the work. It also raises questions about responsibility: having the right to take and share a photograph does not always mean keeping it online is the most decent choice. Together, Ward and Antonio come around to the value of returning to the same places year after year. Familiar events can become long-term projects, giving photographers a chance to notice what interests them now, see how they are changing, and gradually find something deeper than the pictures they made the year before.

We're back Formlining…Riley's away on holiday, but there's no streamlining of the pod squad. The same cannot be said of Sheffield United Football Club.After a mini summer break — during which we continued to publish articles, podcasts and pulled together a fanzine — Sam and David reconvene to work through an oddly busy and not entirely reassuring Blades summer.From Alan Knill's departure and Phil Jones's arrival to the release list, André Brooks's move to Norwich, Jairo Riedewald's return and Romelle Donovan's arrival on loan, there is plenty of squad reshaping to discuss. There's also the small matter of Seamus Coleman training with the club, the transfers that may or may not happen and how many more players United actually need.Off the pitch, we tackle the £35 million question: the winding-up petition issued against the club's former parent company, another change to the ownership structure and the communication vacuum that continues to surround Bramall Lane.So, not for the first time, we go again. Are there reasons to be cheerful ahead of the 2026/27 season, or are United already storing up problems for the next one? Get full access to The Pinch at www.thepinch.uk/subscribe

Are we wrapping the cross in a flag? How far can party and country go before our Christianity must say “stop”? Craig sits down with April Ajoy, author of Star-Spangled Jesus and co-host of The Tim and April Show, to talk about growing up inside Christian nationalism and learning to follow Jesus instead of the party line. The point is not to chase outrage, but to measure all power by the words of Jesus. God first, always. They cover flags in church, fear-based politics, and the quiet shift from “this is my conviction” to “the state should enforce my conviction.” Craig urges us to stop outsourcing love to Caesar and get back to simple, neighbor-first faith that looks like the Sermon on the Mount. If you feel the tug between cross and country, this conversation gives language, laughter, and a clean path forward, to put Jesus over team, platform, and flag. Their conversation digs into: How “good Christians” get discipled by politics without noticing Flags in the sanctuary and what symbols preach Humor as healing: naming the “Jesus juke” Propaganda, fear, and why panic feels like faith Coercion vs. consent: the Kingdom's way of love Threads vs. tables: why face-to-face changes hearts A simple test for allegiance: cross over party, Jesus over nation

They also talk about Will Smith's terrifying use of AI in his post-slap redemption tour, and why he still has a chance to avoid the Flop Abyss. In Armagayddon, they talk Gen Alphas' shameless farting in school, why they've earned guilt-free flatulence, and millennials' own farting privilege; they also discuss one woman's battle with a creeping mold that's threatening her marriage.

In this conversation, April and I dive into how Christian nationalism has shaped modern evangelicalism and American politics, the fear-based messaging that keeps people from questioning their beliefs, and what it really means to deconstruct faith while holding onto a deep love for Jesus. We explore the impact of misinformation, culture wars, and political agendas on religious spaces, and how to navigate difficult conversations with family and friends who see faith and politics differently. April shares her experience of rebuilding her faith outside of fear, control, and rigid ideology, offering hope to anyone who has ever felt the tension of questioning long-held beliefs.Whether you're deconstructing, reconstructing, or simply curious about the intersection of faith, culture, and politics, this episode will challenge and inspire you. Tune in for an honest, thought-provoking conversation that reminds us all: faith should be about love, not fear.In this episode, we cover:April Ajoy's journey from America-first Christianity to a faith rooted in love, inclusion, and critical thinkingThe fear-based messaging that keeps people from questioning their faith—and why stepping outside the box can feel terrifyingThe real reason so many churches equate Republican politics with Christianity (hint: it's not just about faith)The role of misinformation, culture wars, and political agendas in shaping religious beliefsHow Christian nationalism influences conversations around abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, and women's autonomyWhy some faith leaders are pushing for a government controlled by Christian ideals—and what that really meansThe emotional, relational, and spiritual toll of leaving behind rigid belief systems—and how to find community after deconstructionWhat the Seven Mountain Mandate is and why it's influencing today's political landscapeBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with April Ajoy:Follow April for more thought-provoking conversations, satire, and insights on faith and culture:TikTok:@aprilajoyInstagram:@aprilajoyYouTube:@April_AjoyFacebook:@aprilajoyThreads:@aprilajoyBluesky:@aprilajoy.bsky.socialFind her book, Star-Spangled Jesus, wherever books are sold!Connect with Emily:Instagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelEmail List:join hereWebsite

When you hear the phrase "Christian Nationalism," what do you think of? A harmful set of ideologies that threaten democracy? A buzzword phrase used by bad people to demonize good Christians? April Ajoy has had a journey of conscience from being a full-throated Christian Nationalist to someone fighting against the damage she now sees in that set of dogmas. The real trick of it was that at the time, she didn't know that phrase, or why it would have applied to her. She just thought she was being a faithful Christian. On this week's show, she'll talk about her new book Star Spangled Jesus. It tells the story of growing up the daughter of a prominent pastor, and touring the world to evangelize the gospel with her family. She went from absolute certainty in her Christian faith and it's unbreakable connection to Republican party politics, to a massive moral crisis and painful deconstruction.

Pre-order Star-Spangled Jesus: https://amzn.to/3XfEha8✖️✖️✖️April Ajoy wouldn't have called herself a Christian Nationalist when she performed her original song “America Say Jesus” on the Jim Bakker show, or when she participated in Jesus Marches across America, or when she posted cringe-worthy videos on YouTube to campaign for Mitt Romney. April just considered herself a good Christian: faithful, Republican, and determined to make America a Christian nation once again. But as her view of the world widened, Ajoy began to see cracks in her steadfast beliefs and recognized the ways her conservative politics and religion were intertwined in her mind. Did God really bless America? Is it actually by His red, white, and blue stripes that we are healed? Ajoy, content creator and podcast host, shares funny stories from her time deep within Christian nationalism, exploring how aspects of evangelical culture such as purity pledges, product boycotts, Satanic panic, and end-times theology have all been exploited to advance the Christian Nationalist narrative. She also illuminates the ways nationalist thinking has infiltrated our churches and political arenas, shaping not only modern evangelical culture but also American public policy and international relations.Part memoir, part guidebook, part call to action, Star-Spangled Jesus explores how the fight to make America a “Christian nation” has damaged us all and shows how one woman left Christian Nationalism and why America should too. ✖️✖️✖️Support the Show: Patreon.com/PreacherBoys✖️✖️✖️If you or someone you know has experienced abuse, visit courage365.org/need-help✖️✖️✖️CONNECT WITH THE SHOW:preacherboyspodcast.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@PreacherBoyshttps://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/https://twitter.com/preacherboysdochttps://www.instagram.com/preacherboyspodhttps://www.tiktok.com/@preacherboyspodTo connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/This episode is sponsored by/brought to you by BetterHelp.
